We love having dinner at Ada's and being served by Rhonda. She has so much joy when she greets us and elevates our experience because of how she interacts with us. Rhonda is so personable while being efficient and attentive. We enjoyed our grilled artichokes and the award winning clam chowder. Our halibut was cooked to perfection. My friend and I both noticed how the food was still hot when it arrived at our table. This rarely happens at other restaurants. The food often arrives lukewarm but not at Ada's. Even my vodka tonic was perfect! Eating at Ada's was like being with family. We will definitely be back!

I celebrated my birthday at Bell's and it was such a perfect evening! The service is always exceptional and every bite was delicious. We truly enjoyed our evening outside in the courtyard. They always go above and beyond making us feel so special. Our server, Raymond, was excellent! We were also so happy to be greeted by other Bell's staff who remembered us from previous visits. Brian helped us choose an excellent bottle of wine and Abigail surprised us and made sure we went home with some of our favorite bread. Their attention to detail makes Bell's an absolute stand out. We try to return every time we come into town. Bell's is a local gem! We try to introduce Bell's to all of our friends and family when we visit. Thank you for everything Bell's! We are always impressed!

Great service and good. We arrived early and the manager took our drink order and served us some great cocktails while we waited. Waiter (tall blonde kid) was working hard and really took great care of us. His support team was all over it and engaged. Parking in rear makes it very convenient as SLO weekend evening parking can be challenging, especially with all the construction that’s going on in DT SLO. Artwork is exceptional. Looking forward to our next dinner at Nate’s.

We had a lovely time celebrating my 14 year old's birthday. The food was tasty, the service was excellent, and the bonus candle (but no singing!) on our cake slice at the end was perfect. Would absolutely go again for another celebration meal.

Really enjoyed the cabanas and drinks and ambience. I ordered the ahi tacos and it looked good but the flavor wasn’t there and wasn’t fishy but wasn’t fresh. My drink was delicious! Service was fantastic! Pool was perfect I only wish they still had a hot tub. Overall we had a great time :)
