Four of us went on a Sunday at 5 and were very happy with the experience. We had great service and the food was very delicious. This place is a hidden gem. We had veal, fish, scallops and pasta. All were great.

Four of us went on a Saturday at 5 and sat in the corner of the dining room. Waitress was great and the food was very good. Room was filled when we left and the noise level had increased.

We are a clearly visible lesbian and we were treated like any other couple and it was very reassuring and we felt safe and comfortable. We had a wonderful waitress who was very attentive and funny and even said we were a cute couple! I’ve been eating at Burlock Coast for a few years now with my family and now my partner and it’s always a positive experience.
