My husband and I ate breakfast there last Labor Day weekend and it was fabulous food.We ate on the deck out back and the atmosphere was so relaxing.This is not to say it was a cheap breakfast,if that's what you want go to McDonalds.Normally we don't pay 30$ plus tip for breakfast, especially traveling,but this day my nerves were frazzled ...
One beer (16 oz. draft, plastic cup) one mimosa (6 oz. plastic cup) cost us $13.95 plus tip. I would expect a high price in an establishment such as this, but the 6 oz. plastic cup of orange juice and splash of bubbly? I'll never spend a dime there again. This place sucks. I can't believe the crowd that eats there. Are you all THAT hungry? Or, maybe you just have money to burn.

Eating with Flies and Nats?
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/07/08
The resturant SUCKS!! If you like to be inside to stay away from bugs and creepy crawly things then dont eat at this resturant! Sitting in the resturant and fighting to be the only one eating your food is not something you expect when there food is priced as it is. I went to this restuarant today granted the surroundings are breathe taking but the ...

Get Ripped Off Big Time in Big Sur
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/21/07
I recently stayed one night at this place and according to the website, dinner & breakfast are included with the "Winter Return" package. I paid $175 + tax per night for the package and when I got to the hotel I was told drinks & deserts are extra as well as an 18% service charge added to the bill. Also, certain dishes cost ...
The location was perfect and the staff went out of their way to assist us with information on ski packages, tours and shopping. The service was great! The complimentary breakfast was a real treat and a money saver. We met other guests from all over the United States and enjoyed visiting with them.

Leaves much to be desired
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/07/07
The food is lousy and very overpriced along with a nasty waitstaff and particular hostess on Sunday's. The office help I spoke to was not very nice either. The rooms are over priced and dirty even thought they claim to be recently remodeled. I don't recommend it at all!

Never Again......
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/29/05
The waiters acted like they could not care about your comfort. The bartender was too busy trying to impress some local girl. And the food was terrible. I would not eat there if the food was FREE !!! You really do not need good food if you have the location & the set-up that they do. Chairs in the river are cool. They do have Wi-Fi access for free.
