Jesse JohnstonJune 14, 2015Compared to the overpriced, waiting-line-only affairs you'll find a few miles north, the Big Sur River Inn is a quaint, old-California establishment with good people, tasty food and happy living.
- The Bold ItalicApril 12, 2013Doubles as a good no-fuss brunch spot if you’re looking to down a Bloody Mary on a giant back deck with a view of Big Sur River down below. http://bit.ly/Zr8zjB
Nina YiamsamathaFebruary 15, 2016If you're staying at the inn, the beds are super comfy. If you're eating at the restaurant, the gaucho steak hits the spot.
Big Sur River Inn & RestaurantJune 25, 2014While other parts of the U.S. are dealing with not so wonderful weather we are enjoying the river and the warmth. Come sit with us.
Rachel LippmanFebruary 11, 2013best place for a weekend escape. Enjoy an afternoon in the big wooden chairs in the middle of the creek.
Grab a refreshment and a stogie and sit on the wood chairs by the river and relax. No crowds in the winter!
Martha LopezSeptember 15, 2013Try the Backyard Cooler, strawberry infused , basil vodka with lemonade
Srikant ChandrasekaranOctober 24, 2015The blueberry pancakes were great . And do try their Mocha. Just out the world !
Kath Jones-OrrMay 9, 2018Sitting in or by the river - and surprisingly quick service. V spicy Bloody Mary.
Mike KJuly 10, 2012This place has nice rooms overlooking the Big Sur River. Quiet and isolated, the inn boasts not having any TV or phone services, but it's funny that I can still get WiFi internet service here.
Lucas GardnerOctober 5, 2019This is a cute place, great restaurant. The rooms are loud (next to highway) but I wouldn’t let that deter you.
Martin ReynoldsOctober 16, 2011Great place to stay and great food. On a hot day sit in the river with a cool beer. Awesome.
Sindhu B.RDecember 25, 2012The potato skins were good. Thr Roasted eggplant is a misleading name for what the dish actually looks and tastes like. But enjoyed both these starters.
E CAugust 3, 2016We stopped at the Big Sur inn, but were treated very poorly by the hostess. The manager offered no apology and his final comment to us was "this restaurant is not suitable for people like you"
SeeMontereyJuly 14, 2011May through June Big Sur River Inn hosts live entertainment every Sunday afternoon.
Pavan KulkarniJuly 6, 2016the food was ok nothing great. the calamari was not fresh. only highlight is the tables in the river where you can take your togo food
Anna VarellaJuly 20, 2013Salada de atum e hamburguer magníficos! Excelente atendimento. Aliás, prefiro o atendimento dos mexicanos do que dos americanos.

"The river view cabin was so cool. It's right on the creek with a fire pit on the porch. The inside of the cabin is kind of modern. The bathroom has heated floors. We had a blast!!"
