    Servers were great. Food was ok. Not a lot of options for sides. I ordered steak special of night with fingerling potatoes and it was just a few slivers of potatoes under the meat so they were soggy. Big piece of steak but no flavor at all. Partner got prime rib and said it was ok but have had better at many other restaurants. Asked the waiter if the sweet potatoes gratin was sweet and he said not at all because they add stuff to make it not sweet. They were especially sweet. Drinks did the job but very pricey

    We had 8ppl at 530pm, and it was a lovely experience. The food was delicious. Our service was top-notch. The band didn't start playing until 7 p.m., so we had a nice quiet dinner and conversation. Once the music started up, it became a little hard to have a conversation, but the visual aspect of the people dancing and the music was very entertaining and enjoyable.

    I had watched a review on YouTube from Mark Weints on the best barbecue on the central coast where Jockos featured for it red oak coal fired barbecue. I also had mentioned it to my supervisor who’s from the area. And mentioned to me that he highly recommended it and that he always goes back when he is in town, which is about twice a year. I can tell you this place does not disappoint. The food was excellent. Our waiter was awesome and amazing and gave very good recommendations. Anytime I’m in this area. I will make it a point to come eat here. I highly recommend making this a restaurant to frequent. Make sure to make your reservations cause the place gets packed after about 5:30 PM.

    Beautiful ocean view so don’t go at night or when it’s dark - the steaks are fabulous and the best sauce is the mushroom sauce which you must ask for with your meal - the chocolate lava cake will please several of you and you probably only need one - if it is your birthday they will give it to you for free! Surf and turf is to die for! Reservations are a must and prices are expensive but you will not care as the food is just that good - remember the daytime views of the ocean as you dine are majestic!
