Service was great and the atmosphere was fun but $230 (including tip) for 2 people with no alcoholic beverages is pretty high. We had one appetizer, two entrees and two desserts.

Wonderful wood-roasted dishes! The pizza is awesome but so are the veggie dishes. The brocollini was amazing. Also loved the little gem salad!

Madonna Inn is always a treat to visit. The pink and red leather booths and pink napkins. Service was great. Food was wonderful. Big portions and fresh. We didn't stay for dessert. Their cakes are phenomenal. We will come again.

This was a very nice dining experience. It is a welcoming place and the service was attentive and efficient. I recommend the Morro Bay oyster shooters. They were as fresh as can be. Kickers has a terrific menu with plenty of excellent surf and turf options.
