Treasure Chest
This lovely little seafood restaurant is a real gem. No credit cards, no reservations, no doubt about it, just really honest food, and a fantastic ocean view. Not a place to be in a hurry. They were packed as soon as they opened the doors the evening we ate there. When you seat the whole restaurant at once, you'd better be prepared to wait a bit. We killed the time with some wine and an apetizer of clams casino. The seafood dishes were very well prepared, not too fancy, but just plain good. There's an open kitchen that faces the beautiful Pacific sunset. Can't wait to return there soon.    [07 Oct 2003 15:56:06]

Worth the Wait
The Sea Chest has the freshest seafood in the area. I had the salmon which was cooked to perfection. We were the first in line since we had heard about the wait and chose a table by the window and watched the glorious sunset over Moonstone Beach.

Service is efficient and I would recommend this place to any seafood lover in the area. K. Carter    [26 Jan 2004 17:22:56]

Just the BEST
This place truly worth the wait. The best seafood. Simply prepared, but just so GOOD. IF you get a chance, try to be seated at the bar. This way you can also observe the chef preparing the dishes.

I can't say enough good things about this place. We ate there 3 days in a row and every time it was perfect. It's going to be hard to eat seafood elsewhere.    [02 Jun 2004 16:44:04]

Our Favorite
We have been eating here for 20 years. It is our favorite spot in Cambria. Food and ambiance is the best.    [04 Jul 2006 17:06:11]

Worth the drive.
Ate there the first time in 1994 driving with my daughter from Chicago to start her freshman year at Claremont McKenna College. Have been going back every year since - always include a stop at the Sea Chest when in California. Great food, beautiful sunsets - head chef, Steve, is a delight. The line to get in starts 1/2 hour before they open the doors - if possible try to sit at the bar and watch them prepare the food.    [17 Nov 2006 20:01:04]
