on Citysearch Apr 22, 2011Wonderful location in Moss Beach, practically right on the ocean. The view is fantastic. The place has a lot of ambriance owing to the fact it was built in the early part of the 20th century. There's a patio (also with a... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 28, 2010We had an excellent meal here with an unbelievably yummy dessert. Definitely try the banana-marshmallow wontons, they are delicious! You can't beat the view, it's so relaxing to sit out on the deck and watch the sun... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 21, 2009One of the best places for a pint and some food along this section of the coast. Plenty of deck chairs ensure everyone can enjoy the view. Thoughtfully, a large cache of blankets is available in case the fog starts to... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 02, 2008I am not sure if I came to the same restaurant that any of these people came to, who wrote reviews before me. I did not come here to find a ghost, I came here to surprise my husband with an amazing brunch and stunning views,... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 09, 2008Slow service. Low quality meals. Iceberg lettuce salad = a head of lettuce, two strips of bacon, a couple of cut up cherry tomatoes, a picked onion and some dressing. We used to love this restaurant. Very lowly rated in... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 27, 2008Did the person who wrote the rebuttle to the Ghost Hunter Episode see the show? The chef told Ghost Hunters of activity that included "Swinging Lights" and "Laughing in the Ladies Room" and claimed it as paranormal.... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 21, 2008Reviewed both the Ghost Hunters episode and the Distillery's rebuttal on their site, and am appalled at the lack of remorse and absolute smug response by executive chef. I will make it a point to inform familiy,... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 15, 2008So we went there on a recommendation saying the view was nice, good food, etc. The view was nice, and the brunch menu was tasty. But I would never go back mainly because it was waaaaay to expensive for what you get. Sure... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 09, 2008Let's be realistic this place may have great food and a great location and even great ghost stories but how can you believe in there ghosts after watching Ghost Hunters. I was planning on going with my wife for dinner... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 08, 2008I would never even consider your restaurant based upon Taps visit. Pathetic! A schooling on morals and ethics would be appropriate. (more)

on Citysearch Jun 06, 2008In response the appearance of MBD on Ghost Hunters, on SciFi: Summary: MBD brought in the team from Ghost Hunters on SciFi and lied to them about reported hauntings and then tried to cover it up. Review MBD mocked... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 05, 2008Too bad I had to put a star there. I'm disgusted that for a place that claims to be haunted for generations, you have to submit to cheap dimestore theatrics. Oh wait, you have your "certified psychic" on your site... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 04, 2008They advertise that the place is haunted by the "LADY IN BLUE". TAPS went in to try and find something paranormal. They found quite a bit but it wasn't paranormal. Moss Beach Distillery is nothing but a cheap funhouse... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 04, 2008If you like the history of the ghost (Blue Lady), one of this restaurants claims to fame. The restaurant was featured on the program Unsolved Mysteries. Now they have been featured on the Sci-Fi show Ghost Hunters.... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 04, 2008The owners of the Moss Beach Distillery have no problem with going on a nationally broadcast show, Ghost Hunters and have absolutely no problem LYING about their supposed "HAUNTED" establishment. What does that... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 04, 2008Not a good example of lovely San Mateo county night life. It's basically over priced food and seafood you can get anywhere else. Yes, the bar is lovely and everyone's got a story (or knows someone who had an experience... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 03, 2008After watching the television broadcast of Ghost Hunters this evening, it was disappointing to see that the distillery is rigged with devices to attract visitors that would enjoy paranormal events, they not... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 03, 2008I have not eaten here but reviews that I've read have not been good. Most state that food is nothing special and is over priced. There are several reviews that are very good which I assume were written by someone that is... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 16, 2006This used to be one of out favorite restaurants and now they have succeeded in over-pricing themselves. I was not sure if it was because we went on a Monday afternoon, but the dining room was closed and we had to order at... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 09, 2006This was once one of my favorite jaunts to visit to unwind from the city stress. I've sat outide even during rain to enjoy the once edible food and drinks. On my last visit my experience was so terrible that I am never... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 09, 2006It's hard to believe now, but for years, this was one of the greatest locals places anywhere--great food, great view, relaxed atmosphere. I used to go there 2-3 times a week! I had my wedding reception there, as did a... (more)
