What alison callon likes about The Old Custom House.:

The atmosphere and service were really good. Nice outdoor patio with view of the ocean. Our server was very helpful. The kid's entree and fish tacos were good. The only issue we had was with the New York Steak we ordered. It was ordered medium, but came back well-done. It was sent back and came back almost raw. The peppercorn seasoning was not good either.

read moreCustom House offers a mixed dining experience according to recent visitors. Some patrons praised the fantastic dishes such as the shrimp salad, fish and chips, and carrot cake that are reasonably priced and served with stunning views of the ocean. However, others expressed disappointment in the limited gluten-free options, mediocre cocktails, and inconsistent service. The restaurant's location near Avila Beach pier is lauded, providing a beautiful setting for outdoor dining. Despite some shortcomings, Custom House seems to be a popular choice for its delicious food and inviting nautical-themed atmosphere.
Very nice place by the ocean. Decent prices and good service.
Great fish sandwich and one of the best garlic fries I've had!
It was a great place to have a few drinks and watch the sunset. The food was delicious. Street tacos and jalapeno poppers.
