I love stopping by SLO en route to LA. What a delightful respite from the LONG drive. The thermostat is permanently set to the mid-70s, it seems, no matter what time of year I go.
But I have yet to find a good restaurant there.
I feel I'm offending the co-eds who work and eat there with this rating, but it reflects the feedback I'd give to my friends. As a student I think I might enjoy this place, but now that my tastes are... uh...more experienced...no thanks.
What we had:
Zen Burger--just okay.
Yogi Special--cubes of hard tofu that looked thrown into a pan and sauteed in oil and soy sauce. It was served unappetizingly next to a bed of brown rice. A yogi did not make that, nor should it be given to a yogi.
Steamed veggies- looked and tasted like they'd been microwaved in a wet bag.
I'm too old for this place.
