My son and I took a road trip from Orange County to Monterey last week and we saw "Splash Cafe" advertised on the TV hotel channel at Embassy Suites in San Luis Obispo. I ask the front desk if they were any good and she highly recommended it. I had the Clam chowder in a sourdorgh bowl and decided on... more

I have only eaten breakfast at this cafe. It's so good that I eat at this cafe every time that I am in SLO. It's a great place to have some coffee while reading the paper. My favorite thing to eat is the French Toast. It's made on fresh cinnamon bread. This place is so reasonble. I can't wait to... more

This place was so charming, so inexpensive, and hit the spot. My only regret is that I didn't get the Ahi Tuna Sandwich that my husband got-I tried it and it is EXCELLENT. The iced mango tea is great, the service is great, and there is lovely outdoor dining. (if you can get a seat!) It IS really busy here... more

There is a line out the door to this inexpensive, very casual, restaurant. The claim to fame is the ( white and thick) clam chowder. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. The chowder is made on the premises, and is put in a toasted sour dough bread bowl. Reasonable priced and very filling other kinds of foodsserved too,... more
