Graze Kitchen
Finally got into GRAZE. Bright, airy, the totally exposed kitchen give a bit of cafeteria-feel but thankfully we don’t have to slide our trays down the bars. At first cruise through the menu I thought I had stumbled into a vegetarian restaurant but going back over it noticed fairly obvious bits of meat tucked in…

Restaurant Edit
Robert’s Arroyo Grande ammended to ♦♦ strictly for horrible wine service and terrible stemware.

So many people I talk to still have not heard Hoppe’s Bistro in Cayucos closed last weekend. Was it that far off SLO/5-Cities people’s dining radar? Might say something about why it closed.
