Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Templeton

This place has an amazing view! We sat in the outside covered area which had a prime view. At sunset. The service was great! The food was delicious! We had a lot of the raw items; oysters, tuna poke tower, albacore ceviche and crudo sampler (which actually is not crudo but actually sashimi but was still delicious). We also had the octopus and caesar salad which was not your ordinary caesar salad. It had bacon and a 6 minute boiled egg. The smoked old fashioned was delicious, smelled amazing (apple and campfire smell) and was quite a show. They also had amazing local wines and for those who like wine I will tell you they had great glassware too But honestly what stole the show was the desserts. The corn cake was Amazing!!!! So delicious and different.. We also had the bread pudding which was also delicious but slightly less delicious than the corn cake. Also we went with our kids. There is no kids menu but our kids are great eaters and love raw and cooked seafood so they ate all the food we ordered and loved it. We will definitely be back again.

This delightful side street patio experience was as exceptionally delicious as the setting was cozy sheik. From our charming waitress, perfectly garnished cocktails, and exceptional entrees - this is one not to miss.

We make an annual visit to Il Cortile for a special dinner and, while we've never been disappointed, this year was the most amazing! Of the amazing dishes and service I want to call out - Ivan, our server was so helpful and described each dish so well to help us decide - scallop appetizer was devine, cooked so perfectly and tender, served with delicious small sauces of variating flavor profiles - pesto truffle gnocchi was the most pillow-like and light gnocchi I've ever had, the flavor was out of this world - sea bass and branzino each had a flavorful and crispy side, fish was tender and cooked perfectly - osso bucco sets a new standard for that dish Only drawback is if you are seated in the patio it's rather chilly and not as comfortable an area. This was the first year we got to sit inside and it was so much better. Try to get reservations for the dining room! Thank you Ivan and Il Cortile for yet another memorable meal!

Excellent and fresh food. Delicious. Our first time and we can’t wait to go to come back

We ate in the Grand Ballroom the the Christmas buffet special. The prime rib was one of the best I've ever had, there were several other choices to choose from as well as a plethora of delicious and healthy sides. The cheesecake was like heaven in every bite. The service was also amazing considering it was Christmas Day and more than likely they had less on hand then normal. We'll definitely eat here again for our annual Christmas dinner.
