A diner from Valencia, CA
Jul 28, 2008
After several years of dining at Dorn's we were thoroughly disappointed (and disgusted). I took someone who had never been to Dorn's before. Even bragged about how good it was. Was looking forward to having Surf & Turf. After waiting an hour to be seated, to be told they were OUT OF LOBSTER. It was a Saturday night, 6:30 p.m. Only to be told, "Oh we have crab legs left over from last night". Then the salad comes and there's a bug in the dressing. At the end of the meal, the bill comes and they only wanted to comp us the desert. We told the waiter they need to do better than that. After all, we didn't cause a scene. They took a off the two glasses of wine, which I guess was fair. When we left, we told everyone who was still waiting outside, that they were out of lobster and to check their salads for bugs. I guess that was justice enough...

Our first and last visit to Dorn's. It's probably a swinging spot if you're over 70, but for us fifty-year olds, it lacked any kind of vital signs. And that's not even talking 'bout the food and drink. We ordered the "house" red wine, and was told it was a merlot from a nearby winery. The serving size was generous, however it was abnormally light. (I swear they had cut it with water...)
Yes, the chowder IS good, but the food was way over-priced. The staff was friendly and efficient, but the overall experience was bland.

Iffy at best. The seared ahi was great, though the portion could have been larger for the price. The shrimp louie was awful -- the shirmp were tasteless -- and when asked, the staff said the shrimp had been in house for 'about a week' -- yecch.

These folks serve the best Clam Chowder we've EVER tasted! We visit Morro Bay on a regular basis and never leave town without visiting Dorn's. It's a MUST! Highly recommended. Order the Clam Chowder! You won't be sorry!
