    The ambiance is upscale, and the space is quite small. The tables and outdoor heaters felt a bit too crowded and close together, and the servers had to be highly imaginative to go around to service certain tables. The lighting and sculptures make this seem like a slice of old-world charm in the middle of San Luis Obispo. Our server could not have been better and was very knowledgeable of the offerings and even the upscale wine we brought (decanting $20). My order was a very flat plate of "winter squash" but I was not able to find or taste the Kabocha it featured. My entree was what I based the ratings on. I had mentioned three times (in my opentable reservation note to the restaurant, in the follow-up conversation with the hostest and with the server, that it was my wife's birthday, but nothing was brought out to celebrate it. We'll be back, and hopefully will have the same server.

    We always enjoy this restaurant however, this time around they struggled a bit. They didn’t give us the chicken on our salad for starters (though they comped it), and it took us until we got our dinner before we got our drinks. It was cold and though we asked for a heater, we never got one of those. The food was good, but not as great as usual. Love this restaurant, but it seemed like a little bit of a tough night.

    Monday is great… fried chicken night! It was delicious!!!! The sides rotate but last night was mashed potatoes and asparagus. Everything was cooked perfectly! Our server recommended a good white wine to go along with the meal, also delicious! And the final thing we loved was a slice of peanut butter chocolate pie for dessert. Great service and a cool vibe!

    We had a great dining experience at this charming bistro. It was an intimate setting with friendly staff. I ordered a Granada punch and it was delicious. Everything we ordered for dinner was fresh, flavorful and original. The honey glazed salmon with sunchoke puree was the best I've had in years (I need to order salmon more often). Our experience was memorable and we will be dining here more often!

    We love Granada Bistro, but sometimes they have an off night. Food timing was off and the burger (which I love) was a bit overdone. That said, the service was excellent and they made it right. Oh and if someone offers you a “milk punch,” say yes. You won’t regret it.

    Overall this was fine but nothing special. It took a long time to order and be served. The food was okay but again nothing special.
