Best Italian Restaurants in Pismo Beach

We enjoyed dinner. Food was good and service was fine. Prices are a bit high. Had a nice Caesar Salad. Some fun desserts. I enjoyed an excellent lemon sorbet. Noisy when we first came in but as dinners departed it was easier to converse.

One of our go to favorites in Paso! Great atmosphere, amazing food and overall nice experience. When the Sea Bass is available you have to do it. Service is always on point. Paso locals have been running this place for 20+ years and we love to support it.

We make it a point to visit SY Kitchen every time we’re in Santa Ynez. While most of our experiences have been enjoyable, our most recent visit on November 19th—coincidentally our 42nd anniversary—was truly exceptional. I savored one of the best vodka martinis I’ve had in years at the bar. The service was outstanding, with our server demonstrating professionalism, attentiveness, and a friendly demeanor. Each course was timed perfectly, enhancing the overall dining experience. The food was exemplary, and the manager went above and beyond by checking on us three times to ensure everything met our expectations. It does leave us wondering, though—why is Nella Kitchen, under the same ownership, such a stark contrast in quality and service?

The Food was delicious. My wife and I are vegetarians, so the kitchen was able to remove the prosciutto from one of the pizza's and it was still amazing! The courtyard where the restaurant is located is very charming! We will definitely visit again.

Great views, was greeted quickly and staff where so friendly. We saw whales from the rooftop and the food was amazing. Will definitely be back!!
