Meaghan HMay 8, 2017Historical spot with amazing views from the dog friendly patio. Food on the patio is fried and heavy, not sure about the inside which is a separate menu. Can't go wrong with the great drinks!
GusApril 21, 2018This place is a hidden gem! The views are spectacular and the food is “esquisita”! Mahi mahi is delicious!
Sandra CifoJune 10, 2019Manila clams in wine, butter, garlic and parsley sauce with garlic bread. So good you’ll dip away until there is none!
- Sandra CifoMarch 30, 2019The yellow fin tuna sandwich with ginger is delicious. Stuffed salmon, great lemonade. Service is still excellent!
Deborah GApril 11, 2015Sit on the back patio area... Fire pits, blankets and great views of the Pacific Ocean. The burgers are juicy and delicious! Get it cut in half, ithe 1/2 lb goodness on bun is a handful.
themanwiththeluggageJanuary 17, 2018The place to be if you're in the area. Excellent seafood in a very cozy location.
MarcAugust 6, 2016The Distillery Burger paired with garlic fries are a perfect match and easily shared by two. Total $17.50
Rebecca ElliottSeptember 13, 2015There is a dog friendly patio with seating and fire pits. Separate kitchen services the patio with a limited menu. Excellent place on a warmer beach day- Sandra CifoApril 21, 2018Yellowfin tuna sandwich and they have GLUTEN FREE BREAD :O . Mahi mahi special. Service is great and the views so nice.
Ryan TamaresFebruary 22, 2021Very friendly service during a takeaway pickup, with good adherence to social distancing & other safety protocols
Sushil YadavNovember 24, 2012Free drink of your choice if you unlock the drink special! Great tasty drinks! Great view with fire pits.- Amanda MeyersAugust 7, 2014The seafood casserole was amazing, and we had a great time enjoying the back patio
Jen RNovember 8, 2013Come here on a foggy day and sit by the fire with a blanket. The best place to be with an incredible view!
Great Sunday brunch with all you can drink mimosas or champagne. Reasonable kid's brunch menu too. And killer views. Opens at 11 on Sundays for brunch.
Mason WongSeptember 4, 2011A la carte burger ($15) was surprisingly good, big portion (easily feeds two average appetites or one huge appetite), better meat flavor and value than Jack's Prime in San Mateo.
Albie MDecember 12, 2014Great place to eat. Ask for Jeanne, she's the best. Tell her the guy experiencing Xmas lights paranormal active sent you. Albert
Kate FreemanJuly 13, 2013Sit outside-- there are fire pits, blankets, benches and a great ocean view. Order drinks inside at the bar.
Salvador AguilarFebruary 7, 2017The clam chowder is good, but must of the other food is ... not as good as the chowder. Is a good place to stay at the bar- Alyssa BereznakAugust 11, 2014they very awesomely provide blankets for anyone who wants to drink outside and watch the sunset
Awesome place to dine and watch the sunset. The staff is wonderful and the food is excellent!
Gin Splash is a great way to start off with your first free drink with check-in. They don't hold back on the liquor. 
Heidi VanceApril 3, 2012Crab louie salad and the crab quesadilla (get it with the handmade corn tortillas) - both amazing.
DexterMay 29, 2012The Crab & Avocado Quesadillas are expensive at $25, BUT THEY'RE AWESOME!!! And, the back patio is pet friendly.
Patrick KoenigAugust 18, 2013Get the dessert and see if the Blue Lady will haunt your pie. Haunted pie is delicious.
Chris Lacy-HulbertMay 14, 2013The burger does come with fries, so no need to get a side order of fries as well.
Filet Mignon. Ask for syrah reduction sauce & pray they have it.
Natalie LinSeptember 3, 2012skip the restaurant, head to the patio, and curl up with a blanket + beers to take in the sunset.
WhiskeyAvengerNovember 30, 2023It’s not really a distillery, just a restaurant with a really nice view.
- Mason WongSeptember 4, 2011Distillery Steamers was very tasty, albeit a bit pricey ($29). Great flavorful broth, meaty clams.
Mark MelnickSeptember 20, 2013Just enjoyed beautiful sunset on this Autumn equinox day.. Melissa's margarita made it even more heavenly..
William LindnerDecember 6, 2014Perfect place to drink a hot drink and listen to the waves by the fire.
Great location and friendly staff however the food is basic, at best
come here for the fantastic view from the patio. bonus: dogs are also welcome.
Irina IssakovaMay 27, 2013The patio is really cool. The food is mediocre at best and definitely overpriced for the quality. For better prices, order from the bar menu and sit on the patio to enjoy the view.
Lindsay EyinkAugust 14, 2014Blankets. Fire pits. Ocean view. 30 minutes from SF. Best place on earth.
