    Amazing food...STUNNING view. Come for the early seating otherwise it’s too dark to enjoy the view & thats half of what makes the place so special.

    Perfect for sunset if it's not cloudy. The bread is perfectly warm and delicious. Beef tenderloin is 💯

    When you stay at Big Sur’s breathtaking Post Ranch Inn, you can sample black cod with caviar beurre blanc on a cliff that overlooks the Pacific Ocean. Not bad. Read more

    Fantastic burger and fries. Ricotta and chocolate cake were outstanding. Lunch seems like a better value than dinner.

    If you're in Big Sur and want to splurge a bit, this is your place. Unparalleled views and great food. Lamb was the best course of the lunch. Highly recommended.

    The chefs tasting dinner is good, but not great for the price. The breakfast, however is damn near unbeatable and has the best views

    Is expensive but overall, worth it; extremely good food. They really handled my girlfriend's vegetarian and gluten free request very well.

    They change their menu every day. It's a tasting menu which was different and had you try more from the menu. The view was unbelievable.

    Don't miss the house cured salmon at breakfast.. Or the stargazing from the patio after dinner.

    The 9 course pre fixe lasts 3-3.5 hours. Book your reservation for 5:30 and you'll be able to enjoy the sunset at Sierra Mar

    You can have the entire tasting menu delivered to YOUR ROOM. The distance from plating to room is short, it is tantamount to sitting in Sierra Mar. Try a romantic meal in your room if there a few days

    Unbeatable cuisine and views! Breakfast is only open to inn guests. Lunch and dinner are available to outside guests with reservations.

    Good views, not so great food. Expensive and overall not for demanding palates. Too much fancy bullshit to impress and the food is average with good presentation.

    Not only we were unfortunate enough to book dinner on a rainy & foggy night (so, no view), but the service was terrible as well. Food was good, but not great. Thinking it’d probably better for lunch..
