😠 I went to get a coffee and asked for light ice. When I get my coffee the cup was not full. I asked if they could fill it up with cream and was told that the portions were already measured out and she was not allowed to give me any more milk. She said I could use the creamer they had out but it was e...

👍👍 Found this place by the sound of the amazingly talented band that was playing here. It has a nice and friendly set up inside. The outside is a cozy little garden area with seating and an area for live entertainment. People were having a good time, drinking, dancing, socializing. I wish I could have...

The Smoke Point BBQ & Provisions
Restaurant
😐 Disappointed. The thing that put The Smoke Point head and shoulders above all other BBQ places was the menu. The aged steak, the wagu, etc...yes, expensive but exquisite. These things still show up on the menu posted the website but are now apparently no longer available at the restaurant if our exp...

👍👍 Yes, it’s pricey but it’s small and local. I will always support local. (I’m from Clovis,Ca). We are on our way home from Pajaro and decided to stop for a burger. What a GREAT place to stop! I got a double bacon cheeseburger, kids got a corn dog and kid’s cheeseburger. This is by far one of the best...

😠 6/18/2023 We were driving on the highway from LA back home to Bay Area about 11am. Unfortunately, we discovered that we were very low on gas. When we had barely enough gas to arrive at this resort, we were relieved to arrive at a busy RV resort. There were three adults in the resort office. Two wome...

🫤 Bartender brunette heavyset I think her name starts with a very, very mean woman. could not believe how badly we and another group of were treated.

😠 DO NOT GO HERE!!! I came here because of convenience. This is a 27 dollar plate and my sushi was the size of a quarter. This is ridiculous. I usually go to ariagto in salinas and it's almost 3 times the size. This is not worth 27 dollars maybe 10 dollars. This is a joke of a place and they are basic...

👍👍 I love this place. Not too many places to just lounge in San Juan. But this place is the best. Beautifully curated grounds to enjoy. Lori is the sweetest and you can not say anything bad about her or her establishment because she gives you 100% of herself. She is a woman-owned and operated business...

👍👍 I love this park, pets friendly. I come here twice a week for a quick run, a whole lap is a little over a mile, parking lot big enough and spacious, there are restrooms all over the park so that’s a good thing. The view is incredible, mountains all around, it opens at 7:00 or 8:00 depends on weather...

👍👍 Well maintained state park that preserves the artifacts linked to the Mission San Juan Bautista. The entrance fee is $3 per person. Part of the exhibits were the horse carriages, a historic residence, an Adobe, Hotel Plaza. We did witness blacksmith and fur-trade demonstrations. Worth visiting!
