I coach college volleyball and we are taking a trip out to California from 8/27 - 9/6.

One of our days we go to Morro Bay.

Does any one know a good place for a college team (21 people) to eat dinner... perhaps with good view?

The Hofbrau is yummy and right on the water.

I put Hofbrau on my list. Is there any other places... where there is a nice view?

Well, they all do! The restaurants are all on the boardwalk that follows the coast. They all thrive to offer fresh sea food. I have been eating breakfast watching crates of fish pushed thru the isles as I ate. We make it a point to seak a different restaurant to have clam chowder each time we pass thru.

My mother and father are a half hour away from Morro, so I have been there a lot.

Besides! Morro is under a constant fog layer. If and when it lifts all you could ever hope to see is the rock!

You make it sound like MB isn't all that nice...

...other than the rock.

Well, I don't usually eat anywhere else in Morro Bay when we're up there. It's because we're poor, and everywhere else tends to be quite expensive. All the restaurants on the Embarcadero have a good view, though.

I like The Galley (Morro Bay Seafood Restaurant: The Galley Seafood Grill and Bar - Morro Bay Seafood on the Embarcadero) but I LOVE Bayside Cafe which is tucked away in the state park, a ways from the busy, touristy harbor front.

If you had only one chance to eat dinner at Morro Bay with a budget of $10-15 per-person. Where would you go? Classy with a good view is a plus!

Morro Bay is fun and wonderful--and the rock is usually pretty visible. I second the rec. for Bayside Cafe--neat place right down in the marina area--

My very favorite is Giovanni's which is on the embarcadero on the other side of town--it's part of a fish market with a huge crab cooker right next to the line where you stand to give your order--then you eat on picnic tables on the deck--sea lions often gather and bark just beneath where you're eating. Freshest, best seafood ever--or burgers or a whole huge menu of things.


Both of these are more casual than classy. Windows on the Water is pretty nice but expensive.

I like the sea lions part! What is more "classy" Bayside or Giovanni's?
