Mark, and Mark provide simply the freshest high quality fish, and seafood available in both restaurants.The local ocean provides your meal, and is prepared impeccably by thier chefs, and caught by Mark Sr. or other local Morro Bay captains. No need to try another seafood house, just head over to Tognazzini's you won't be sorry.

Stopped in for dinner and were rewarded with nice harbor views, friendly service and a respite from the more touristy places facing the street. My wife had the lobster bisque and a seafood salad and enjoyed both. I ordered the linguini with a pound of clams and was in heaven. Clams and pasta were perfect and the broth was the best Iâve enjoyed in a long time. We liked it so well we returned for breakfast and had another outstanding meal. The Country Benedict was inspired - biscuits and gravy with a large sausage patty and poached egg inserted. I may stop making hollandaise and shift to this.We had a great time and will return.Thank you for sharing your glowing review. It is great to hear that you enjoyed both breakfast and dinner. It is helpful to know what our guests enjoy and to know you found a little bit of heaven! Say hello the next time you come in.Denise

We have been coming here for years and have never been disappointed... until now. Starting off, we had the chowder and it was delicious. Then, out came the fish. We had the fish and chips. The fish was sold as cod, but they were very small fillets quite unlike cod, and they had absolutely no flavor. We also had the scallops. They were a pre prepared, probably frozen, tiny pieces of flavorless scallop meat, coated in very thick doughy crust. I think we might try another option for seafood, next time in town. I would like to think it was only a fluke, but, I donât think so.We are so sorry that you did not enjoy your last meal here! If at anytime during your meal you are unsatisfied, we would be happy to remake our order or make something else! We have not changed our recipes in 30 years so we hope you will give us another try!

My wife and I had a Saturday brunch. The food was good to very good. Tasty. Not much on presentation. Service was mediocre and staff not very caring. Server poured coffee too fast and spilled onto table but said nothing and walked away. The view and location is excellent so we looked past the service. We recommend for breakfast.

Windows on the Water has incredible views of the marina and the rock and the sunset. We went for our anniversary dinner while in town. We notified the owners beforehand and asked for a table with a great view which we got. Unfortunately the service and food did not live up to the view. The food was average but for the price the quality should have been much better. We paid $18 for duck bruschetta which included on piece of bruschetta. We both had the fresh local halibut which was over cooked. The service was awful. Our waiter never once refilled our water glasses or asked if we wanted a second drink. It took literally 30 minutes to get the 1 piece of bruschetta. My advice is to go for the view but order drinks. Dear SarabooI want to sincerely apologize for the unpleasant incident you had at our restaurant. Without your feedback I might never have known of it.It is our highest priority to provide our guests with an exceptional dining experience and in this instance we certainly failed to do this.

The food is awesome, great portions, wholesome, rib sticking! Starting to look run down. Staff needs a little help, not enough of them for the amount of customers. Owner, Carla is hard on staff, she was yelling constantly during breakfast.Thank you for your comments we appreciate your visit. Not sure what was tired but we pride ourselves In our restaurant, unfortunately we do not own the building so we are limited at what we can do. No sure who you were referring to Carla has been out all week. But thank you anyway.

So, this is a clean well run restaurant with a nice menu, and excellent service.... came here a long time ago, and though we would try it again... we were not disappointed. Fish Taco's were outstanding, and the Leticia Salad with Steak was delicious... server was very busy, but keep up with the tables and drinks well......

Known for their breakfasts, but we like lunch which beware doesnât start until 11:30 or shortly thereafter. My Reuben was to die for. I had 1/2 sandwich and soup combo. Todayâs soup was chicken vegetableâ though tasty it was a bit too spicy/peppery for me and the chicken was way over cooked and tough. Husband liked his burger but coleslaw was tasteless.

Came here with family to celebrate our 25th anniversary. Everyone ordered different seafood dishes and we shared appetizers and a bottle of wine. Considering the restaurant is right on the bay and serves fresh catches, plates start at $30!!!! A little pricey although it was very good!
