A great place to hang with friends and meet some new chicks each is very friendly and the food is delicious the pool tables we always have fun praise

I just started a new job on the street and stopped at a Monday night to check the 49s cardinal game from Mexico City. I'm a pretty new...

I have to say this bar has friendly barkeepers! I was just a few times, but I was hungry for a night and I remember the bartender who gave me pizza...

"I always thought this was a tiny Mexican restaurant and felt like an idiot to discover it's American-style cuisine with a bar and outdoor patio. The food and service are excellent and quite literally the coolest place is the bar area. This local staple has been here 28 years and owned by the same person. The only thing they don't have is breakfast. Jeanette is the treasure here, although all the employees seemed cool, despite many being younger. They have wine and spirits, but my focus was the six taps of local craft brew from Discretion, Coronado, Corralito's and North Coast Pacific. Corralito's is far up in the hills behind Aptos and I never get up there, but fortunately they get kegs every week. The Richter Red Ale is excellent. It's nice you can sit in the bar and have lunch easily and without a reservation or huge rush. The pastrami sandwich was excellent and I'd expect everything here to be good from the other patrons food I saw. They have a happy hour from 3-5PM where drinks are $2 off, but really the only negative is everything is pricey and it can be occasionally difficult to park if it's busy. I think $9 for beer is quixotic but they have excellent food and service, plus it's a relaxing ambience that also can be cordoned off for groups. The closest thing to Mexican food they have is the Taco Salad btw...in case you wondered. I expected to get an enchilada plate or taquitos and had no idea how wrong I'd been for years driving by. This is also a good place to eat if your going to visit Discretion Brewing in the same parking lot. If that's not good enough, you can buy weed, furniture and mattresses next door as well as a Safeway, Best Buy and Home Depot across the street. So, the location is convenient for doing errands after or meeting folks, being right off PCH. They have parking spots in the front for takeaway orders, with the rest of us using the carpark behind the restaurant. In case you wondered, this was a restaurant 28 years ago before Cafe Cruz, but before that, it was originally a private residence, hence the intensive repurposing you observe today. There's one other small house which survives today in the carpark and the defunct breakfast/lunch place behind Cafe Cruz is slated to open as something similar as Cafe Opal was, with breakfast and lunch only. If Cafe Cruz had breakfast, I don't think any restaurants would ever survive behind them. Cafe Cruz reminds me a little of a favorite family-owned chain in Los Angeles called Hof's Huts (now defunct) but had a very similar model, with a bakery and all-day breakfast being the difference. Anyway, if you can, sit in the bar if Jeanette's working. She knows all the restaurants history and is cool."

"Our granddaughter (5) absolutely loves the war wonton soup, she calls it green soup. Every Wednesday we get green soup and fried shrimp her favorites! My husbands favorite is Mongolian beef and special fried rice. We also love the sesame balls. I love the Hong Kong noodles. Always delicious and owners are especially nice."

"I? ve only ordered the delivery from here, so consider how you read this. I?ve ordered the decreasing appetizers and my favorite, Tom Kha Gai soup, both are consistently quite good. My other favorite, Pad Kee Mao, aka Drunken Noodles, is just not on the standard. Not with the right noodles, not NEARLY spicy enough, even after the request quite sharp. And it's just not as good as other versions? We?ve also had other dishes like the aubergines basil, and really it just didn't have the complexity, the layers of flavors, or even, enough basil to make it really a basil. Everything was fresh and made with high-quality ingredients, it was simply not?gel? in a really interesting and tasteful dish. I prefer the other local alternatives. I gave them a fair chance. They like simplicity and freshness, but I wanted more Thai taste art and saucier flair."

"Absolutely wonderful restaurant, the atmosphere is magical and the food delicious. Our party of three ordered an assortment of dishes to share and enjoyed every one. The Halibut Crudo was my favorite, it melted in my mouth and the flavors were perfectly balanced. But what really made our evening was the warm and professional service we received from Claire. She was an informative and attentive server, and helped make our first visit to Home, one we will always fondly remember. We will be back soon and hope that Claire will be working."

"Got 50$ worth of skirt steak that was labeled as 2.5 lb. Half that weight was the juice they package it in. wow, to bad after getting the tri tips there thought it was worth it. Unfortunately a loss like this isn't worth the trip anymore.1 star is a justified response when I'm paying for a extra lb of marinade."

"The food is over priced. If your looking to have a big meal this is not the place. The taste is ok. Not the best."
