Reviews for Koberl At Blue in San Luis Obispo, CA
5 stars I ate here a month ago and still thinking about that steak.... ???? Service was excellent and the ambience was amazing.... I did sit outside and what a view. I tried the tomato soup as well as some ice cream. Oh forgot to mention a bottle of wine ????silly me. Everything tasted amazing. The server was helpful and friendly and insisted I try the dessert. Good choice ???? also Iknow this kind of random... but perfectly cooked vegetables. Often you go to a restaurant and they're a little too al dente forme. Beautiful flavor texture and presentation all around. The table sitting next to me and I were discussing just how good thesteaks here were. Read more
My husband and I walked in to try out this restaurant. We are locals and have been wanting to give it a try. We walked in and... felt so unwelcome by bartending staff and who I assume is the Manager or Owner. They were full and offered for us to at thebar.. but it felt like i we were more of an imposition than a patron ready to enjoy a pleasant meal. We honestly felt "leasthan" and I will never go back to give them a try. Who does that to guests? Too many other places and we ended up enjoying abeautiful mea elsewhere. I will tell everyone I know to reconsider their options if this place is ever on their list. Appreciateeveryone who walks in your door, Thank them for coming and tell them you are happy they came in. It's not that hard folks! Ihope this feedback helps someone to have a better experience than we did! Read more
This is our family's must to dine destination on each visit to SLO. It is an excellent restaurant with a classy atmosphere. It... is consistent. It makes you feel good every time. The owner is there on almost every our visit and she is most welcoming. Staffis well trained and friendly. Bethany, our hostess tonight, was outstanding and made us feel like we are her personalguests. Drinks, food and desserts were, as always, delicious and above the praise. Can't wait to come here again on our nexttrip. Read more
Ambience and service were great. Menu is varied. If you?re looking for something alone (chill) or romantic (special) this is a... spot. One side is more intimate than the other. Location is great. Depending on your budget, can be pricey. Read more
Simply have to share so others are prepared..... Stopped by one earlier afternoon several weeks ago for appetizers and drinks -... very nice experience. Some weeks later we decided to give their dinner a try - what a completely opposite experience. Even withreservations and with several available tables open, we were seated in the noisiest section of the restaurant. So noisy in factthat we could barely hear each other - sitting only 2ft apart. Even the server struggled throughout the evening to hear us andfor us to understand her - not her fault at all. Here's a TIP for the owner - who proceeded to make excuses instead of listeningto feedback. Don't seat smaller tables next to large parties in an acoustically challenged space - know your environment! Thefood was average at best and certainly not worth near the $$$. I must iterate that our server was excellent. She conductedherself professionally despite all of us struggling to hear each other the entire evening. It's no wonder there's always a "NowHiring" sign on their door as we have chatted with past employees who now work at other places in town - consensus was ownershipissues. So many wonderful restaurants in SLO and its not that hard to do things right - I recommend you try them first. Read more
My hubby & I have always loved Koberl & were looking forward to celebrating our anniversary here post pandemic. We were not... disappointed. The same great food & service as always. We started with fried calamari & snow crab chinois. Our main course wasSautéed Duck Breast & duck confit, Sea Bass with black beans, & rice with chorizo & fresh peas (yum!). For dessert we sharedthe vanilla Crème brûlée with fresh berries. Everything from start to finish was delicious and our server Eric was the best! Read more
I?ll start with the food. It was exquisite! My whole family enjoyed their meals and frankly we couldn?t stop eating even after... we were full. The food was very fresh and plated quite beautifully! We got a chance to meet the owner and she was lovely andfriendly. Our waiter was amazing and very funny and even though it was busy, he still managed to attend to our every need. Theprices on some of the entrees were high but pro tip: the vegetarian menu is quite affordable and offers delicious substitutes tomany of the entrees. The most expensive thing on the vegetarian menu was $19 (which wasn?t bad at all considering the qualityand quantity of food given) The atmosphere was lovely. It was a perfect fancy/casual dinner. If you?re looking for a nice mealin a professional yet comfortable atmosphere, come to Koberl at Blue. Also it?s very close to The Madonna Inn and a great, lessexpensive alternative to the Gold Rush Steak House (it also has more availability than the steak house) Our server was amazing(I?ve forgotten his name but it was something fancy that started with a B. Maybe Byzan or Bizan?) If you happen to get him youare very lucky although it seemed like all the waiters were all very kind! 5 stars isn?t even enough to express our enjoyment ofthis restaurant!
