Restaurants near Leo Carrillo State Beach

Outstanding Italian in the area. Freshly made food, fantastic service (Jocelyn) We keep going back there regularly.

Brittany was our server and she was outstanding. There was no request she couldn’t fill and she went above and beyond to make our experience A++

Can’t say enough good things about Geoffrey’s. The ocean and sunset views were breathtaking while the food was delicious. Our server, Angel was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and provided excellent recommendations. Would highly recommend!

Had a really excellent meal here on Friday night. Great views, really warm & inviting atmosphere, attentive service & the food was outstanding. We split the Waygu Beef Meatball appetizer which was perfect for our party of three. All of us loved it - great, rich flavor in a well-prepared sauce that allowed the flavor to come through. We had drinks - I had a great Italian Pinot Grigio and my friends had mixed drinks that came out perfectly. For our main courses, we had fish tacos (both my friends) and I had the Chopped Salad which was comprised of chicken, vegetables, grains and avocado in a balsamic dressing - so good and a generous portion (having it for lunch tomorrow). And after, I had a soy cappuccino that hit the spot. Couldn’t recommend the place highly enough - Ron, the manager, and Nico, our server do an excellent job. I can’t wait to return.

The Paradise Cove Beach Cafe is definitely worth a visit! Great variety of food choices - some interesting new takes on the good old American favorites. EXCEPTIONAL cocktails - super fun & exotic choices! Sadly no room for dessert - which looked mouthwatering. If I lived closer I'd be back again soon just for that. The outdoor 'beach' seating is spacious & fun; there is a covered patio area - also with a sandy bottom... but adds to the experience. Inside has regular banquet/table seating options. Definitely MAKE A RESERVATION! When you do you can check-in at a separate kiosk - & jump to the head of the always long line of hopefuls. Go & enjoy a fun, family meal - while the kid play on the beach.
