Love the music series and how Shani is always there, attentive to her customers. Robin's is a great resource for our little village! -Lyn

We had an amazing dinner. Food was fresh and prepared quickly. The salads and entrees were excellent Very nice ambiance Very friendly staff read more

We visit Robins every time we go to Cambria. The food is delicious (especially the seasonally available peach cobbler!!!) and the service is always excellent. What we love is the unhurried atmosphere that allows us to enjoy our meal in peace and not feel rushed. As already mentioned the peach cobbler is divine. Also enjoy the brussel sprout started which we've eaten as a "lite dinner" option with an order of their garlic bread. I can't resist the Robin's Chow which never disappoints. Portions are large, wine list is good and the garden is lovely especially during summer for dinner. Haven't had the Sundae but it looks amazing will try next time. Looking forward to going back. read more

Was meeting up with some long time friends in Cambria and we decided to go to Robin's. We made a reservation online and arrived a bit early. They had a garden table for us, even though the reservation system said none were available. What a peaceful setting. The tables were spaced appropriately so that the guests could still have meaningful conversations without having to worry about being overheard. I ordered a cheeseburger with fries and boy was I happy. The fries were amazing, wish there had been more since I had to pace myself while I ate my burger!! My friends enjoyed their meals, as well. The server refilled our waters in a timely manner, which is always appreciated. I will definitely come here again!! read more

This was within walking distance of where we were staying so we decided to check it out. It's open air and there's greenery everywhere which was very nice, and as the evening became cooler they turned on their outdoor gas heaters which was much appreciated. We ordered the Salmon, the chicken, and the lamb curry. Each one of these dishes were absolutely delicious, they came out hot and in a timely manner. I was particularly impressed with the lamb curry because I was expecting it to be watered down, but it was not. It didn't have as much heat as my Dad's, but it tasted authentic. It took a ridiculously long time for anyone to approach our table once we were seated. Usually if servers are super busy or they get double seated or something, one of the managers will help them out by coming over and telling us someone's on their way, or they might get our drink order started, they do something to help mitigate the absence of acknowledgment from the server, but that did not happen. I observed the comings and going's of all the staff (managers, servers, bussers) that were passing us by and every single one of them averted their eyes. This is not what I expected from a place like this, and every moment that passed made the experience even more off putting. Just as I was deciding to get up and leave the restaurant, because it seemed like we were invisible, our server showed up. Just in time. From there forward we received short but adequate service. read more

Food was 5/5, service 4/5. So overall 4.5/5. Robin's is a great place with healthier, fresh, and unique menu items with an ambience to match the menu. Sitting out in the garden feels lovely and like you are tucked away (and the space heaters do their job). There were a lot of tasty sounding menu items and easily shared the salted beets and Thai green chicken. Both had wonderful flavor and were delicious; we were super happy with our order and would absolutely order those items again. Our server was not super attentive and did not come in to check on us during the meal. I would definitely go again when in Cambria and would recommend to others! read more

This restaurant is tucked away on a side street off Main Street. The decor in the inside and outside is lovely. I went by myself for lunch. I was slightly annoyed that they escorted several people to their tables before me even though I was there first. But once I was seated the awesome wait staff made up for it. The salmon bowl was very good. Everything tasted very fresh. I recommend this restaurant. read more

We were so nervous about the wait but they fit us in very quickly. We ordered a side of baba ganoush...we could have drank it. Insane. I got the green chicken and it was superb. It was also so cute and romantic inside. The garden is also gorgeous. You can tell that whoever owns it cares very much about it. read more

Great ambiance, service and food. We had spring rolls, burmese curry with tofu, and a vegalicious sundae. Parking is on the street.

We were here in March a few years ago and liked it so much we decided to come again during our December visit. The place is even more charming during the holidays with the Christmas decorations and lights adorning the warm wood interior. The restaurant is housed in a cozy historic home built in 1935, and that vibes still lingers in the dining rooms and garden setting. We felt like we were dining in a piece of the town's story. The food reflects the culture of the central coast. Well executed, simple but with a global influence, comforting and fresh. On this visit, highlights included the filet mignon, cooked to a perfect medium rare and plated over mashed potatoes with a velvety demi glace sauce and mushrooms. The baby back ribs, which were tender with a wonderful savory glaze. The autumn salad was fresh with seasonal apples, squash, pomegranate, and feta mingling nicely together. For dessert we shared the pumpkin cheesecake which creamy not overly sweet and a graham crust that crumbled nicely together to the chew. We'll definitely come back on our next visit to beautiful Cambria. Happy Eating! read more

One of the two must go food spots in Cambria IMO (besides hidden kitchen of course). I will caveat that Robin's international cuisine has a California fusion interpretation - a beef bulgogi here will not be the same as a Korean restaraunt in the Bay Area, but all of their food is well executed and absolutely delicious (from someone with snobby food taste buds). It's been a while since I visited so I was excited to try their refreshed lunch menu. I ordered the beef bulgogi bowl, which came with hearty black rice, tender & juicy beef, and pickled cabbage and other vegetable toppings. It hit the spot! My aunt reported the ahi tuna poke bowl was delicious as well. Logistics: - Indoor seating, covered heated patio seating, and gorgeous outdoor garden seating - Street parking in front or public free lot around the corner - Vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free options available read more

I was in town for the holiday market and this restaurant is conveniently located next to the shuttle pick up area. The restaurant is super cute! Despite the cold, we brave the outside patio since the heaters kept us nice and warm. We enjoyed a quick dinner for 3. We got the short rib, filet mignon, and meze platter. We really enjoyed all 3 items. Great fresh flavor for the price point. Service was friendly and loved that they accommodated to our request to place our order quickly to get to the holiday lights event. read more

Was in Cambria for a bunch of days. Came to Robins for dinner on Monday music night in their lovely garden. Everything was top notch from their lovely staff to fantastic kind and professional service, being so nice to my dog as well, and even getting me spoons when I said I wanted to play them. She trusted me not to be unruly lol. The food was delicious and innovative with great fresh ingredients. Wonderful beet pistachio salad, chicken enchiladas, garlic bread.. We came back for a second meal. read more

We booked reservations for a Tuesday but were I. Town on Monday so stopped to see if we could have lunch that day I stead? No worries seated right away on their beautiful patio garden with our small dog too! Food was unbelievably good. The calamari was the best we have had in a long time. I had the Ahi Tuna Pone Bowl and my husband had the Robins Bowl with shrimp he loved it! Our server was a lovely young lady sorry can't recall very sweet brought us water for our pup! read more

Service was good. Atmosphere was gorgeous. However, we couldn't stomach the signature salmon stew. Fishy in a bad way. I literally wanted to spit it out. We also didn't like the hummus mixed plate. I know this place is top rated, but we were both underwhelmed by the flavors and quality of the food. Not worth the hype. Try Brydges restaurant, a few streets away, instead. read more

I was traveling through and saw gluten free options at Robins. I called in the evening and was able to make a reservation for just 30 mins later. The employee who answered was super kind and helpful in answering my questions. when I arrived, I enjoyed looking at the amazing garden outside with gorgeous flowers and plants. I was seated rather quickly despite the rush, and immediately noticed the live tree vines snaking through the open air restaurant. I ordered the garlic truffle fries and the pork chop and while my server was kind, he seemed a little overwhelmed and slow to respond for requests. I had to ask another employee for water and it took my server quite a while to get my food out. When my food came out, it was delicious and so gorgeous. I ordered a gluten free cheesecake to go and it was beautiful and delicious later as well. I loved walking through the patio seating area to admire the gardens again, and I enjoyed my leftovers the next day- they were just as good. Highly recommend! read more

Filet mignon was very good as it should be. Tom Yum Talay was great. Loaded either seafood, great broth full of flavor. Only wish there was a little more soup/broth but again full of great flavors which paired well with each other. Calamari was decent as was the pear, date sticky toffee pudding. Service was spot on, the ladies were very attentive but not overly so. Would order main dishes again but would try diff appetizer and desert next time read more

We recently went there and the food was pretty good. The service was also really good and very nice servers. For the robin chow I would say add more flavor however everything else was amazing. They're mango gelato was really good I recommend trying. The prices were kinda expensive however it's California so I wouldn't expect low prices. The restaurant has a really nice fresh and Italy giving vibe. The building looks amazing outside and inside. I think if you're close by it's most definitely worth a try. read more

Robbin's is a cool spot. They have a cool little patio with a good vibe, friendly service, and good food. The last time we were here, my daughter got the salmon salad and it was fresh and delicious, and I had the Tandoori wrap and it was delightful. The chai latte was also a hit and my wife loves the salmon bisque. Get a reservation because it's busy and is one of the best spots in Cambria! read more

I had performed some research on Cambria restaurants before venturing out on my trip and make reservations in advance at Robin's. I arrived and checked-in and was immediately seated. The restaurant was separated into three areas: inside, outside and the garden. We were seated outside directly under the heaters. The outside area was cool looking as roots from the surrounding plants wrapped around the wooden structure. I got to peek indoors and the inside area was quaint as if you were in a house. As for the food, we ordered garlic bread, Peruvian Chicken, the pork chop, brown ale short rib and chop suey. We also had the split pea soup all around and I ordered a special item salad with spinach, strawberries, pecans, feta cheese and croutons. The soups, bread and my salad came out first. The bread was good, the salad was great and the split pea soup was not great. I'm used to my pea soup with ham and bacon and this was a vegetarian option. The main courses arrived and everything looked good. My pork chop was dry although it had good flavor. The brown ale short rib received the best rating at the table. The chop suey was OK and my wife hated the Peruvian Chicken. This ended up being the second largest restaurant bill during my vacation. Overall three stars with good ambience. read more

We stopped by this restaurant while on a road trip down Highway 1. This is such a gem in the downtown Cambria. The garden outside is beautiful and there's a large area that's covered outdoors with plenty of tables for outdoor dining. I got the Skuna Bay BLT and all the ingredients were fresh and delicious. The salmon was cooked perfectly. Service was friendly and the desserts looked delicious. read more

My mom and I had such a lovely experience dining at Robin's. The garden is absolutely stunning, food was amazing and thoughtfully prepared, lovely wine selection, and great service. We can't wait to go back to Cambria and visit Robin's again. :) read more

So yummy!! We got the Truffle fries (crispy and super flavorful), the Roghan Josh (really good and not greasy), and the Thai green chicken. The curry was tasty, just wish it had a bit more coconut flavor since it was more avocadoey, but still really good! Prices were reasonable and the service was great. Our server was really attentive and friendly the whole time, even while dealing with a "Karen" nearby, which we noticed and appreciated. The place itself is really lovely, especially the floral garden, such a cute vibe. Only thing is it could be a little more spacious. Overall, really good experience, would definitely come back for dessert since I didn't get to try it! read more

Food as it could be. Superb in every way. This isn't the kind of fufey place where you go away hungry; Robin's food and atmosphere is what you wish you could come up with at home. It's a long drive for most folks, but worth every effort. Went 1200 miles to get there and intend to repeat. read more

On a recent trip to Cambria we made a lunch reservation at Robins and were seated in the garden area. We had such a lovely time; the food, the ambiance and the service were all outstanding! We ordered a bottle of Rombauer Chardonnay, the perfect companion to the salted beet salad and Thai Green Chicken Curry, both of which were so tasty! Our server was attentive, while also creating a fun, unhurried experience! We can't wait to return! read more

Visited again almost two years later and just like our first visit to Cambria, we dined here twice, knowing we would receive excellent food and service. The menu has many options, and is great for those who have specific dietary needs (many GF and vegan options). Our dog was given water upon being seated, too, just like us. Meals were delicious and the setting is beautiful. Lots of care all around. read more

Came for lunch and sat outside on the beautiful garden patio. Service was friendly and our food came out very quickly, especially impressive because it was fairly busy. The Brussels sprouts and the mushroom soup of the day were full of flavor, albeit a bit too much blue cheese in the sprouts. My salmon bowl was exceptional--moist, perfectly cooked salmon over black rice with pickled cucumber. Husband loved his green curry chicken with cucumber salad--again, very flavorful curry, moist chicken over rice. Love this place! read more

Always a pleasant dining experience. The ambiance is inviting, the service is consistently excellent, and the food never disappoints--we always leave with happy tummies.

For dessert, we shared the Heavenly Hot Fudge Sundae with half McConnell's French vanilla and half salted caramel chip ice cream--and it truly lived up to its name. Our server was fantastic, with a great sense of humor and impressive knowledge of the menu. We will definitely be back the next time we're in town. read more

The salmon bisque was only alright. The salmon in the soup was a bit dry. Soup just tasted like tomato soup.
