Best Hot Spot Restaurants in Arroyo Grande

We had Zach take care of our table and he was attentive and knowledgeable. We celebrated my daughter's birthday and the food was delicious! They have a lot to choose from and it didn't disappoint. Go early to sit and enjoy the sunset!

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!

We stoped in on a mini holiday vacation our experience at The Hitching Post was amazing. Our waitress Jennifer went above and beyond, handling our dietary needs with ease and attention to detail. Her cheerful personality in what was an extremely busy evening, the ambiance of the restaurant and AMAZING FOOD made for an extremely enjoyable Pre Christmas Eve dinner for us all. We can’t thank Jennifer enough, and are still talking about what a great night we had over all.

Food was amazing and good value!! Very intricate dishes and good balance of flavors. Design of the restaurant is also very nice

Wonderful night with a local jazz group followed by a great dinner. The good life at Trilogy Monarch Dunes!
