Lunada Garden Bistro - Bistro in Cayucos - 78 N Ocean Ave, USA

Love this restaurant. They have tables outside the garden with the band playing. Service was great and food was delicious. Sure Ill eat here again.

Ordered lunch to go after a beach day. When I walked in to pick it up, the hostess was outside helping someone else, and the two staff members inside completely ignored me and were chatting with each other. One even said to the other “want me to tell you why I don’t care about this business anymore?” I saw 4-5 employees, and it seemed like 2 were having to do all the work. I ordered a chicken salad sandwich, and it even said chicken salad on the box, but it was a piece of grilled chicken breast with lettuce and tomato- not at all what was on the menu. My husband got the lobster quesadilla and there was lots of spinach, very little lobster, and just didn’t taste good- he kill couldn’t even finish it. The quesadilla would probably have been better fresh, but the unprofessional behavior of the employees and completely wrong sandwich gave us a very poor experience. The garden seating and atmosphere itself seemed amazing, I would have loved to come back sometime if the service wasn’t so bad.

We are a party of six and decided to come here for breakfast. They were able to accommodate us to sit outside! Beautiful day, beautiful ambience. For starters, we tried the artichoke the fried calamari and the lobster rolls. The best of the three was the artichoke. For entrées we had everything from Thai salad, Caesar salad, fish and chips, shrimp and chips, croissant sandwich, and their California burger and a kids grilled cheese. The kids, fish and chips is probably the best entrée on the table. The salads could have been a lot better for the price. My sister enjoyed her California burger which is great because she has a lot of allergy restrictions and they were able to accommodate her the kids grilled cheese was an edible no adult nor child wanted to eat it. Luckily, they exchanged it for a pancake. The artichoke dip was good. The fried calamari was a tad bit rubbery and the adult shrimp and chips weren’t as filling as the kids, fish and chips. If you checking on yelp, one person at your table, can get a glass of champagne. That was the best Champagne I’ve ever had! So I would come back here for the champagne, the kids, fish and chips, and really that’s the highlight of the meal in our opinion. My biggest take away from this restaurant. Was they really should make better salads for the price they charge.

Went for dinner after it was recommended by a friend. We enjoyed a roasted artichoke appetizer that was very good. My husband had a Caesars salad and I had a cup of creamy roasted poblano soup. The soup was really creamy and was just spicy enough. The duck was nicely prepared served over mashed potatoes served with roasted carrots. The baseball sirloin with scallops served with mashed potatoes and roasted carrots. For dessert, we enjoyed chocolate cake. Everything was very good, the waitress was very friendly and the restaurant was nice.

The food was delicious (Salmon BLTA and Sweet Potato Fries) and the outside dining experience was delightful. Someone has a green thumb!

Beautiful garden setting with various areas to enjoy good food, or seating is available inside. Service was very good and attentive. Menu had a good number of vegetarian & vegan choices, plus the staff is great at allowing substitution. There is parking in the rear, just enter the driveway next to the USPS building. We'll be stopping in again for the great outdoor atmosphere, service and food.

Wow what a great experience. They gave us an excellent table where we could see the sunset. We ordered the calamari, artichokes, chicken piccata, and fish medley. Everything was excellent. I asked the waiter to pair a wine with my fish medley and he brought and excellent choice. We were impressed and pleased with everything and then we got the bill and we’re shocked how affordable it was. Can’t get food that good at that price where we live.

Always great food and wine! Love the garden that is romantic and doggie friendly. A go to for lunch/ dinner for those of us that live in Cayucos. If you are visiting our little beach town or a local I totally recommend.
