Brooks Burger SLO closed. Pismo remains open… So here’s the thing… and I’m just throwing this out there: Is SLO Public Market toxic? Are ALL public markets toxic? All I can say is, time will tell. And by *time* I mean: as the years progress will closures across the freeway start happening? The food scene…

Resty Gossip 8.24
Had three unusual Mexican experiences of late… Down in Santa Maria, the little kiosk by a lot of the government offices–including the building dept–has become Deli Delicias & Fresh, making ridiculous paninis with a variety of complex stuffings. Just trust them and try one. Really good. Up in SLO, the Sidewalk Market kitchen space has…
Tacos de Ville
South Santa Maria/Orcutt: Angeles De Puebla. I can’t say “best in the county” because this is Santa Barbara County. But since Santa Barbara wants nothing to do with Santa Maria, we kind of claim them–since they’re right HERE. So: Best in the AREA. But seriously: on this page, in this list, THIS is my number…

What do you want to talk about this week? I’ve been threatening a Best Tacos in San Luis Obispo post for a while, but mostly covered it last issue. I’ve been itching to do a resty-twirl through Atascadero and also hinting at a SLOco Top 10 but I hate top-whatever lists and besides, everybody always…
SLO Coast Confidential
Oh sure: cruising up and down the metropolated 101 is fun, delving into the dizzying downtown dining districts of San Luis Obispo and Paso Robles is rewarding AND filling but taking a left on Santa Rosa and following State Route 1 towards the ocean slows things down a bit, concentrating a series of restaurants in…

The Doc Bernstein’s in SLO has become SLO A LA MODE… still ice cream and there WERE rumors of some sort of insider-trading from the old ownership to the new operators but I stopped eating ice cream when I was 9 so don’t really care. Go to BATCH like a grown-up. Did I ever write…

Another BBQ spot opened in Morro Bay downtown: Savory Smoke has a curt menu of good looking stuff–I’ve only had the hamburger, which is ‘Jimmy Buffet Style’. Look it up. I had to. Never heard of it. And just like his horrible music–turns out his taste in burger condiments is not my style either. Up…

Flavor Factory closed. SLO Wine & Beer closed. Giuseppe’s Cucina Rustica closed for remodel. The Tavern is open in Atascadero. A pool hall. That will be interesting. Lord knows that end of town needs something staying open past 6. Up the street in downtown, the City has opened two lots for prospectus, RFQ & P…
