Delicious clam chowder, fish and chips and tuna melt. Fast service. Was able to accommodate my mom who has celiacs. Thanks for the great lunch

Good service, good food, good vibes. Very accommodating of dietary restrictions. Fries and everything were delicious. Glad to support a local business sourcing from local farmers.

Savory cornmeal waffle cone filled with mashed potatoes, gravy & brisket for about ten bucks! Friendly service & comfortable seating. Immediately off of the 101 too!

They had a crabby cone for a special and it was yuuuuum! thin, crisp cornbread waffle cone filled with mashed potatoes and crab. I loved this. Others in my group had the crab melt sandwich which was very good but pricey for lunch/portion. Other got clam chowder with bacon, she said it was good, liked that it was full of clams and no grit, but broth a bit meh, def needed the bacon.

Cutest little spot in a little fishing town! Muriel's on the ceiling, local artistry on the walls. Serving up and seafood and other select menu items. Service was great!

Saying that this place is bomb is an understatement. It's a hidden gem! The food is absolutely amazing! The selection is both classic and unexpected (ex: mashed potato waffle cone). The service was great as well. Don't get me started on that mashed tater cone though My husband and I love Northern California, and every time we visit, the Lighthouse Grill is a must stop. Keep up the good work!

Food: It was made really well. I ordered the Spicy Chicken Sandwich and it was pretty big, the bun and everything was fresh. Service: Asked if there was any recommendation, and that was how I got the Spicy Chicken Sandwich. For the most part, service was quick. I ordered, got my number to be placed on the table, waited for a few minutes and received my order. Ambiance: The place was nice, it was like a mix of what Trinidad was able to offer, pictures of what a part of Trinidad used(?) to look was in the bathroom, and there was a lot of art pieces throughout restaurant that didn't detract from the decor and the feel of the place. There is both an outdoor and an indoor seating, and on a nice day where the wind doesn't pick up too much, the outdoor seating is best.

Really great service, excellent home made breads and buns. All of the food was very good and very reasonably priced. We ate outside on the patio, very refreshing. Overall, a very enjoyable experience. Definitely will be back.
