Swamis Cafe Oceanside - (Near Oceanside, CA)

Swati Snata Our team of seven visited for a weekday lunch. Although we had requested indoor seating a day in advance, we were ultimately seated outside. Despite this, the food was enjoyable and the portions were well-suited for individuals. We sampled a variety of proteins, including chicken, lamb, and salmon, along with vegetarian options. ​Menu Highlights: ​Mansaf: Excellent and very creamy. ​Beriani Dajaj: Delicious. ​Mocktails: The Pineapple Ginger and Passionfruit drinks were both great. ​Note: The salmon in the Tabsi was a bit dry, and the Maza sampler was slightly small for a group of 6. ​Overall, it was a positive experience for the team.

Kirby Aasen Our cribbage club meets here weekly. The staff takes very good care of us. Friendly, attentive, courteous always a pleasure.

Saja Shaheen We had a wonderful experience dining here! The three of us thoroughly enjoyed every dish we ordered—everything was flavorful and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, making it a perfect place to relax and enjoy a great meal. The staff was friendly and attentive without being intrusive. We’ll definitely be coming back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for good food and a great vibe!

Charlene C My husband and I came here for a lunch date yesterday. We parked in the structure next door. The decor inside is beautiful and we were immediately seated at a corner booth. We were given both the brunch and dinner menu. I ordered the ceviche and fish tacos and my husband ordered the steak tampiquena. Our host Victor was amazing and was always checking up on us and was super helpful since it was our first time dining here. Everything was delicious and definitely a place we’d return.

Rebecca Endres I was able to join a group of fellow hikers at this Ale House and it was so delightful! The patio is spacious and the selection of food went beyond just your typical brew pub food. I ordered the ahi nachos and it was fresh & delicious! They were extremely busy so it took a while to get our food delivered, but otherwise an excellent experience. Highly recommend if you are in the Auburn area!

Denise Fisher This was, hands down, the best and most authentic Italian we have ever had! If it was local to me I would be a regular there. My only regret is that we are only traveling through and I couldn’t sample the entire menu. It’s a small location but the atmosphere is on point and it is very busy because the food is fantastic! I was so full but I couldn’t leave without trying their crème brûlée and their cannolis. OMGOODNESS it was so worth being beyond full when we left. I will make a point to go there every time I am traveling through.
