Spirit of San Luis Restaurant

Good breakfast food. The servers were attentive, polite and friendly. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. We watched the planes landing and taking off while we were there. Mimosas were tasty too

We loved our experience here. You could she the planes land and take off while you eat outside. Definitely recommend and it’s kid friendly. We got the small pulled pork nachos for an appetizer. I got the spirt burger with house made potatoes chips. My girlfriend got the fish and shrimp, four our daughter eggs and sausage patties. Definitely recommend coming here. Love they have food option for kids under 4

This airport restaurant has the best dishes, snapper vera Cruz. Normally airport restaurant serve burger, chicken and 🍟 never had nicely cooked fish like here.
Price went up by $4 compared to 2 yrs ago for this dish.

The food was delicious and the service attentive. We sat by the window and watched planes come and go. Very nice! We went on a Thursday. Got there about five. All but one window table was reserved. Place filled up about 5:30.

After being disappointed with more expensive seafood in near-by Morro Bay and downtown San Luis Obispo over the previous days of my trip, I was very pleasantly surprised and, honestly, shocked to have my best seafood near the airport(?!) waiting for my flight!
I appreciated the fish and shrimp (why have to choose only 1?) and chips combo. See pic...if it attaches.
I was not prepared for my first bite of the perfectly battered and fried shrimp and fish. Having worked in restaurants before, I think I recognized and appreciated that they were fried in clean oil; makes ALL the difference to cook the batter right, and shows a cooking staff that gives effort to cook well.
Cleaning frying oil is an unpleasant chore.
The cocktail and unique tarter sauce perfectly complimented the fish and shrimp.
People who like coated French fries will love their's. I don't care for them, but liked the few I ate. Again, clean oil is easy to notice.
I liked the lightly creamy, crunchy coleslaw.
Don't look past this delicious and reasonablyprice "airport food!"

Had Huevos Rancheros and a pineapple mimosa! Delicious food.

The restaurant has a really nice outdoor seating area overlooking the private plane area of the airport. The service was exceptional, and the food was delicious. Will definately eat there again if I am ever in this area.

It was great as always! Had a breakfast sandwich on this trip. Really tasty. The breakfast burger also looked nice. I'll be back.
Outside seating only at the moment.

Nice place right next to the airport. What a wonderful place to drop by while waiting for refueling the aircraft.
After the meal, remember to visit the FBO. They are very animal friendly. There are always treats for your dogs and cats!

This restaurant continues to exceed all reasonable expectations. Good food, lots of it, reasonable prices, friendly staff, free parking, and a perfect place for SLO airport visits.

I was surprised by how large the portions were. It was hard to finish my tri-tip sandwich and fries. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. It was really neat to sit so close to the runway and be able to watch the planes take off. The service was prompt and the prices were reasonable. I’d absolutely eat here again!

Great views, great food and excellent staff! Sophia is just an incredible server! So friendly, cheerful and an absolute joy!
This place never disappoints! Patrick is a national treasure!

We chose to sit in the patio and watch planes. The staff was exceptional. Food was great. I had fish and chips with grilled fish. Coleslaw is better than most. Truly competitive with coastal restaurants. And gluten free bread offered.

This place is literally right on the air strip and it was really cool watching the planes take off and land. I highly recommend the breakfast quesadilla!

Loved the accommodations and the food!!! Sand Dabs are great! Our service was excellent and tye owners vend over backwards to please. Thank you!!!

Awesome little restaurant next to the airport. Food was very good, the staff were charming and the views of the airplanes landing and talking off made it even better.

Had extra time to kill before a flight so stopped here for brunch and was pleasantly surprised by the high quality and taste of the food. I had the California Benedict and my mom had the Brisket Breakfast Tacos. Fabulous! Even the coffee was delicious. Great atmosphere and service! Will definitely come here again!

This restaurant is incredible! The burger was delicious, and the eggs Benedict special was great too. The best spot about this restaurant is the view of the planes landing and taking off down the run way. The Spirit of San Luis is alive and well here in SLO!

Best kept un-secret in SLO. A bit out of the way but awesome food and nice friendly owner and staff. Great variety on the menu.
If you are waiting for a flight, they have a full size leaderboard tied in to the airport's system so you can track your flight(s)!
Bartender on duty. Great view of the runways and beyond.
Dining indoors and out.
Call ahead to make reservations for dinner.

Great food and unique experience watching the planes land and take off. Lots of food options for breakfast through dinner. Walk to the terminal before or after your flight. Designated parking means you always find a spot. Recommend reservations, especially if you have a large group.
