Restaurants near Moonstone Landing

Definitely a must do when visiting SLO or for special occasion. Romantic nostalgic setting; a bit tacky; but that adds to charm & history of it. I did not see waterfall in urinal though I’ve dined here about 5-6xs…as I have no desire to go in “men’s bathroom” or view a urjnal, ever-LOL! Gift store is upstairs from restaurant—it has 2 floors & something for everyone—in addition to gifts (for urself or others) it encompasses a giant boutique style clothing, shoes & accessories!! Wonderful evening! O h& check out the bar/lounge b4 or after dinner or both & dancefloor w/live band tops it all off. If you stay @ hotel definitely try “Copper Cafe & bakery”—the cakes are “signature” one of a kind & very delicious & impressive & can be purchased in dining room; lounge; copper cafe or bakery. TIP: if ur interested in taking home a whole cake they require advance purchase so check out very informative website that gives more detail than i just did! Cant wait to go back with our adult children this Christmas Eve & maybe stay there to check out “spa & pool with outside food & bar service (for hotel/spa guests only”)!

Food was very good. We started with scallops. They were perfect. We had the fillet, lamb shank, and sea bass. The sea bass was small and lacked flavor. It was disappointing. Aside from the sea bass we were pleased. It got busy otherwise we’d probably send it back. Cocktails were perfect! Staff was nice.

Santos the owner does a fabulous job with food. The Pappardelle with boar ragu is a fav. Portions are smaller than usual and costly BUT the food flavors and attention to detail are wonderful. Ivan our waiter from Bulgaria is knowledgeable and an outstanding person to serve. The burrata crostini with caramelized fennel is a must....Il Cortile does not disappoint....Linda G from Paso Robles....

Love this restaurant. Been there many times A bit disappointed in the slower then usual service given the restaurant was not busy at the time we were there

4 of us ate there New Year's Eve. There were only 2 people working but the service was excellent as was the food and the experience. They had a gift "firecracker" and 2 questions on the table to spark conversation and discussion.
