The staff are incredibly warm and attentive. Izzy and I got to chatting about Harry Styles when she noticed my earrings right from the beginning of our dinner service, got our drinks and appetizer started right away, and kept the flow of clean up and delivery moving without making us feel rushed. She also took our picture for us (I came with my dad) at the end of the night and got great shots that both captured us and the restaurant's decor. For appetizer, we had the squid pro quo - this is one of the best calamari dishes I've ever had. They were lightly battered and perfectly crispy without overcooking the squid, but the best part was the sauce that was drizzled over. It reminded me of a sweet Thai chili sauce and gave the dish a non-traditional tang, which sent me over the moon. Our drinks came out shortly after - I had the Pandamonium, which tasted like more of a dessert cocktail (honeydew boba tea kind of), and my dad had the Tiger's Milk, which was equal in flavor but less sweet. He said the licor 43 is what really elevated the cocktail. Then came the food: I had the Root Salad and made it feral (added chicken), Dad had the Braise the Bar special. Our portion sizes appeared quite different, but given the richness of the braised short ribs over the mashed potatoes, it made sense. I loved the balance of fresh and savory with the arugula and beets against the grilled meat so much that I'm inspired to try and recreate this at home for when I can't make it all the way out to SLO. I think the short rib dish could have a little more sauce - it was rich, but a bit dry; and the single shishito pepper kind of made chuckle as it seemed a bit out of place, as there were no other greens on that plate. Would definitely come again, a fun date spot that shows the quirkiness of SLO.

We've come here about three times and it honestly has never disappointed. Service is always super quick and prompt! The first and last time we came service was good but just service. The time in between we came for lunch and I believe the manager or owner greeted us but that was hospitality and we felt very welcomed. And our waitress was so sweet and also hospitable. The ambiance and decor is so adorable and cute! There's always usually a few people at the bar when we walk in but it's always nice to sit at one of their booths! They started playing Mac miller the last time we were there and that won our hearts for sure haha The food is honestly so so good. It is the freshest seafood I've ever had, so clean, the octopus doesn't even taste like octopus. Their spicy dishes are actually spicy and my partner and I love the food so so much. Chips and salsa $4 - can't go wrong with it they're salsa verde is so good Guacamole- delicious can't remember how much it was but doesnt matter it was so good especially with the pork belly Ceviche, aguachile, tostada Del Mar... so so amazing. Flavors are so well balanced and it's addicting. Tacos are also so good, quesadilla is also delicious especially with the handmade corn tortillas. Don't skip the enchiladas Suizas!!! So freaking good or the tacos dorados! The drinks are pretty vast in selection so there's something for everyone! The drinks never give me a hangover, I was a lil wary since they make their alcohol but dang. Really good. Everything is such good quality, and this little place is such a gem!

Service is always quick, efficient, and friendly. We've never had to send a plate back! It's also a great place to bring guests from out of town. They have a full bar, but we don't drink. Bathrooms are always clean.

Driving is a few minutes and walking is probably a good half hour or so depending on how fast you walk. It's located on the other end of downtown but still on the Main Street. The property itself was massive. We checked it out for a drink which they had a really nice patio. Hi top seating as well as tables. Also some of the seating had fire pits for the nice chilly night. Inside was pretty massive as well with main and up stairs seating. I believe it's also a full restaurant but we only utilized it for drinks before dinner. Menu wish did looked good but we only stick to a cocktail and some beer. Service was great and the staffs were friendly. It's was still a little early so the place wasn't that busy. Just from the cocktails, it was great. The property was nice and pretty massive. Location is quieter but still brought in a good amount of foot traffic. Now that we've been here, we know there's a place we can stop by for a meal and drink whenever we stay down in the area again.

This place is not a place you come to if windy or raining. Staff was very friendly and checked on us often. They were friendly and we definitely felt welcome. We ordered some drinks. Beer pricing was fair at $8 for draft craft beer. Interestingly, they have a setup for bocce ball. We didn't try any food. The only con was that the view was mostly the rooftops of nearby buildings. You could see the mountains.
