Spirit of San Luis

at San Luis County Regional Airport

From Ralfs Niedra on 28-May-2008

Spirit of San Luis is definitely on my top ten Southern California airport restaurant list. Transient parking is conveniently located next to restaurant entrance. You must try their fish and chips with blue cabbage salad. Burgers are top shape, juicy melted in blue cheese. Yummy. Launch will cost you $15 to $20 in 2008 dollars.

Enjoyed a nice lunch with great views of the runways from the patio. The food is a little pricey, but I guess you're paying for location. You can park your airplane very close to the restaurant (along the blue line, and look for the small "T" marks). There's a sidewalk behind a locked gate that goes straight to the restaurant's patio, but that gate is chained closed. Take a right and exit through the security gate that gives terminal access to get to the front door of the restaurant.

The Spirit is one of the best airport restaurants ever! The view is spectacular. The food is outstanding. It just doesn't get much better than the Central Coast of California. Every time we fly in from Tucson it's like arriving in Paradise.

Food is very good. Sometimes I wish I wasn't based in SLO, because then I could fly into the Spirit for a $100 hamburger.

My experience was nothing short of excellent. We taxied the plane right up to the restaurant, got a seat almost immediately, and had a wonderful lunch. My burger was amazing, although it might be just because I was really hungry ;) All in all, it's a great restaurant. Don't forget the code for the gate as you come in, though!

The food and view are worth the trip! Flew in with a buddy from Bakersfield and had the blue cheese hamburger while watching the planes land and take off. Easy parking, if available, in front of the restaurant.

Great place for lunch. Burgers taste good and the prices are fair. Overlooks runway/taxi-way.

Awesome restaurant! The burgers are outstanding. Well worth the trip and the area the airport is in is beautiful. A great destination to go and treat your stomach to.

Stopped off for lunch on the way to Hearst Castle. The sandwiches were great, the service friendly and the value good. Sitting out on the deck watching the aircraft take off and land was a wonderful backdrop for a very nice meal.

Still as I remember it! It's been 3 years since I've been here and there is still good food and great service. There is also a wonderful view of the airport. I highly recommend their seafood platter. Just remember to write the gate code down before you leave the ramp.

Stopped off for lunch in route to a fly over at Hearst Castle. Lunch was outstanding, our waiter (a private pilot) was enjoyable and gave us much info on the local area.

Spirit of San Luis offers good food at a fairly reasonable price. As a native of SBP, I eat there somewhat frequently and my only complaint is that I don't beleive it is air conditioned so it may be a little warm in the summer. Over-all I recommend it.
