I had the breakfast burger, and it was incredible--the burger was cooked perfectly medium, the bun was beautifully crispy, and the combination of the egg and hash brown made every bite delicious. Everything tasted fresh, balanced, and thoughtfully prepared. The coffee was exceptionally smooth and complemented the breakfast perfectly. On top of the great food, the service was outstanding--warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. You can tell there is care behind what they do here. Fantastic food, excellent coffee, and wonderful service. Twenty South is absolutely worth a stop, and we will definitely be back!

Was in town and visited SLO Public Market. Twenty South is located in the market building. We…read moredidn't have any place in mind when we walked through but ended up at Twenty South for breakfast. They have a limited menu but that was ok. They had what we wanted which was a breakfast burrito and breakfast sando. There is limited seating in the restaurant itself and the outdoor seating, there wasn't enough seating with umbrellas. It was a hot day so we didn't want to sit outside without shade. Fortunately, since this was market, there were plenty of seating in the common area. The breakfast burrito was $11 and the Sando I think was $12? If you dine in, they will give you a # and will bring the food to you, even if you sit in the common area, which is nice service. The burrito just came as it, no other trimming, except for the salsa whereas the sando included potatoes. if you look at the picture, they need to add more to the plate with Sando. Even with potatoes, the plate seems empty. They were both tasty, the burrito was fair size. However, mine was seems just stuffed with eggs, it wasn't until the end that I manage to get to some potatoes and meat. There should be less eggs and more of the other fillings. Sando was tasty, with a large portion of egg. The staff was really friendly and the food came out fairly quickly.

If I could give The Oyster Loft more than 5 stars, I would need to consult the chef, the ocean, and…read morepossibly a higher authority. First of all, that VIEW. Sitting there with the most beautiful ocean scenery while drinking the most delicious real blue cheese stuffed martinis. The chef absolutely knocked it out of the park. The bao buns were fantastic, the bone marrow was ridiculously delicious, and the pork chop... excuse me, but that may have been the BEST pork chop I have ever had. And I do not make that statement lightly. That pork chop deserves its own little trophy. And the crab cakes?! Somehow they are even BETTER than I remember them being before they were taken off the menu. Whoever decided to bring these back deserves a prize. Then came the chocolate peanut butter tower, which was Absolutely decadent and the perfect ending. But the food isn't the only thing that deserves applause. The staff were phenomenal attentive, warm, polished, and genuinely excellent without ever making you feel rushed or forgotten. You can tell there is a real level of care and pride behind the experience. Huge compliments to the chef and the entire Oyster Loft team. Exceptional food, exceptional service, an absolutely gorgeous ocean view. 10/10. Only complaint is looking at the scale this morning but would do it over again.

We got the short rib enchiladas and the chicken taquitos, so tasty. Side of rice and beans are so good, we ordered an extra side. Note: the black beans are spicy. Since it was close to closing time, the restaurant was empty and quiet. It really enhanced the open concept. You can tell that even when busy, you won't feel crammed. Would have loved to enjoy another meal here but we were there for only one night. Will definitely eat here again when we visit the area.

We were informed that there was an approximated 35 minute wait. Two other groups arrived after my husband and I and had their names added to the list. A group of four and a group of two. Approximately 10 minutes later the hostess seated the group of four before us even though the group informed them that we were there first. The hostess looked directly at us then informed the group to not worry about it and that she was seating them. Approximately five minutes later the hostess return to seat the group of two. They also informed the hostess that we were there first. The hostess told them not to worry about it and that if we had an issue with seating, that we needed to speak to her about it. The woman with that group then stated that the hostess was incredibly rude. After the second group was seated, I questioned the hostess as to why we had yet to be called. She informed me that she had called my cell phone and the call wouldn't go through and said she got a message that the call was forbidden. I then asked her why and she said she didn't know and proceeded to call my number in front of me to show that the call wouldn't go through. So she either wasn't dialing a 1 before the area code or their landline isn't set up for long distance. I asked her why we weren't informed of this and it was clearly pointed out to her by the other two groups that we had been waiting before them. She just glared at me and said that she had a table for us now. No apology, nothing! She seemed more concerned with obliging the group of four young men and other regulars that she clearly knew.

The staff is always friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. We have always been seated outside and love it when we are lucky enough to have a table along the creek side. The curry dishes, brussel sprouts, and ahi nachos are great to share. The outdoor seating is relaxing under the oak trees. Appears to host families with parents visiting their kids attending Cal Poly. Always a great evening.

While this seems to be a local favorite, we were underwhelmed. Service was friendly but slow. Food…read morecame out fast, but potatoes were cold and oily, and the sausage sandwichbpresented a lot more like a (sausage) burger with an egg. Lettuce and tomato seemed out of place for breakfast sandwich, and the overall effect was more "soup sandwich" than something focused. I really feel like they are trying too hard - at least with this dish. Tone it back and get the basics right - then add a few little things for flair. 10 ingredient sandwich just seems way overworked... Stars seemed a little overworked as well, service was on the slow side- though they didn't seem particularly busy. Nice patio setting by the creek.

If you like beets, strawberries, blueberries, etc. then I'd recommend trying. Also has nuts. -last but not least ribeye French dip was also a home run.

An Unforgettable Birthday Dinner with Breathtaking Ocean Views!…read more We came to Ventana Grill in Pismo Beach for a Sunday night dinner date to celebrate my wife's birthday. This place definitely gets packed, so I highly recommend reserving a table in advance. We were lucky enough to get a window seat, and the outdoor patio views of the ocean are simply amazing! On top of that, the staff here has definitely become even more friendly--our server, Zach, was super efficient and attentive throughout our meal. The food was incredible from start to finish: * Mahi Mahi Fish Ceviche: We started with this alongside fresh tortilla chips, and it was honestly one of the best ceviches we've ever had. * Clam Chowder Soup: This special clam chowder came served with Parmesan cheese bread, which was absolute perfection. Again, hands down one of the best soups we've tasted! * Molcajete Surtido: For our main dish, we ordered this classic feast loaded with grilled colossal shrimp, arrachera steak, chicken breast, chorizo, spring onion, jalapeño peppers, nopalitos, avocado, pork rinds, molcajete salsa, queso fresco, and corn tortillas, served with a side of rice and beans. All the meats were so tender and flavorful, and the rice and beans were really nice. We were so full that we didn't even get to touch the tortillas! To top off a wonderful evening, they brought out a complimentary ice cream with a candle to celebrate my wife's birthday, which was such a thoughtful and sweet touch. Whether you're planning a special date night or a family outing, we definitely recommend Ventana Grill!
