It's not fantastic, service is so so and the dining room is tight. But, it's overlooking the beautiful coast and is worth a stop.

The restaurants along Highway 1 fall into two categories: the well-known fine-dining establishments in Big Sur proper that charge outlandish prices to justify their ocean views...and the roadside cafes that serve up some very average fare to the tourists. Lucia Lodge Restaurant somehow manages to offer up very good food, reasonable prices, and a view to die for. They're famous... More

What a jewel! Stopped for lunch and enjoyed great service and better food. The fish and chips are enough to split between two normal appetites and are as good as I remember from England.
