Windows on the Water

Windows on the Water Review

From giant picture windows at this second-floor spot, watch the sun set over the water. Fresh fish and other dishes based on local ingredients emerge from the wood-fired oven in the open kitchen; a variety of oysters on the half shell beckon from the raw bar. About 20 of the wines on the extensive, mostly California list are poured by the glass.

    In 2009 I had reserved a table for 3 at Windows and did not have a nice experience. We left the restaurant without eating. I wrote a review here and the manager of Windows wrote me back a very nice email asking me to try them again and included a meal gift certificate for 2 along with his phone and email information. I thought that was a very nice gesture and responded. It did take me a while to get back to Morro Bay, almost 18 months, but he and his staff were more than gracious. I took a dear friend with me and we had an outstanding meal, a table by the window with a great view and perfect service. We enjoyed it completely and will come back. Every restaurant has a bad day. They are forgiven of course.

    I don't know what night the reviewer was there, but Windows has some of the best service on the Central Calif. coast. Maybe they were distracted by the fabulous view.
