Nepenthe Restaurant

High above the Pacific and watched over by the majestic Santa Lucia Mountains sits a little slice of paradise. 

This mecca of poets, artists, travelers and vagabonds has served guests for over 68 years, opening for business on April 24, 1949.

Sitting on the terrace, enjoying a glass of wine, an Ambrosia Burger, or one of their exceptional homemade desserts is a quintessential California experience. The first time visitor to the Central Coast will not want to miss it. Once you have visited, you are destined to return.

Visit Nepenthe for yourself and discover why countless guests have dined with them over the years.

The Nepenthe property consists of Nepenthe restaurant, Café Kevah and The Phoenix Shop.
