HOG’S BREATH INN

World cuisine restaurant €€
4.5/5
26 reviews
Open - from 11h00 to 21h00

This is Clint Eastwood's restaurant. The setting is friendly and wooded, even rustic. The hunter's type with its boar heads and its frames straight out of a western movie, one would almost think one was in a saloon. A fireplace is installed outside and manages to give character to a dinner by the fire. The menu includes American specialties such as grills, sandwiches and salads as well as classic Mexican dishes. Prices are relatively reasonable. Keep an eye out for the famous owner who drops by from time to time.

Open - from 11h30 to 20h30

Good address of seafood specialties with a view on the ocean, directly located between Highway 1 and the Pacific. From the outside, the place looks like a simple little shack, without suspecting the delicious menus that Sam concocts for us inside. Live concert on weekends. Sam's Chowder is also a restaurant in Palo Alto and a truck that moves from spot to spot depending on the day of the week. Very appreciated by locals and visitors who come from San Francisco for a lobster roll, a tuna poke or Sam's delicious clam soup!

Since 1994, the Walnut Avenue Cafe has been a Santa Cruz institution, especially for its famous breakfast and weekend brunches.

The interior is relaxing and the terrace is large and sunny. A nice address, in the heart of the city, for brunch lovers. Beware of the crowds on weekends.

NEPENTHE

World cuisine restaurant €€
4.6/5
26 reviews
Open - from 11h30 to 22h00

Located on the ruins of the house that Orson Welles built for Rita Hayworth, the Nepenthe is as legendary as the couple. The restaurant is cosy but, curiously, the food is honest, without more. You can have a steak and French fries for about thirty dollars. In the evening it is a little more expensive, about fifty dollars for a piece of meat and vegetables. In fact, we especially want to advise you to pass there for the aperitif in order to take advantage of the breathtaking view on the Pacific Ocean from the big terrace.

A steakhouse where meat is cooked like Spanish rancheros, on a red oak (red oak) fire.

Specialty stays with beautifully baked ribs, steaks and chicken, but you can also indulge in homemade soups or pastries.
