   I love the Sunday brunch buffet. Great views, good food, good service, plenty of parking. Overall, a very good value.

   Best dining experience EVER Was able to get an ocean view booth in *MADDY’s* section. She is such a joy and made our dinner like eating with family. We are so grateful for her and for Ventana Grill. Kindest regards Joan and Jim

   The Ceviche brought about a bout of mild diarreha that I experienced. Server was slow to reacct when we had to ask for water, a bag to bring our left overs. When we had a question since our server was not available, the server who responded that she was not our server but gave us a curt answer. We had been to Ventana before but this visit was a lot deifferent and our last--the only benefit this time was the 10% as guests of Shore Cliff- our 7th stay. We had dinner at Pono Pacific the previous night- should have had dinner as the 24th was my 82 birthday. Al Avecilla

   The decor in this restaurant is very nice and the location is amazing. The view is so nice especially at sunset. The food was good. I would not give it a five, but it was very good and I would certainly return.

   I made sure to book reservations during sunset so we can take full advantage of the gorgeous sunset view in the dining area. The customer service was really good. Our server made sure that we got everything we needed. I ordered the seafood pasta, my husband had the fish and chips, my son had the lobster mac 'n cheese and my daughter had the pork chops. They all tasted great! They also gave us some starters that had warm tortilla, salsa, and some honey butter. I also had a coconut mojito which tasted great. I'm really happy and satisfied with the service and food at Ventana grill. If you're staying at Pismo Beach, this is definitely a highly recommended place to dine, especially at sunset.

   Most of their food is made with chili's and is way too spicy.

   My husband loves the enchiladas. I had the special surf & turf with lobster amazingly good. Never have had a bad meal there. We have even been to a wedding reception there that was awesome.

    Wait staff needs more training on order app. Took way to long to enter our order.
