They call it a “classic American diner with a twist.” So left-hand burgers, right-hand chilaquiles? No, not Twister. The twist is that Owner and Chef Juan Contreras is also a chef at the finest of dining establishments in Pebble Beach. So he brings high-end technique to pancakes and shrimp tacos and everything else on the otherwise unassuming menu. It’s not fancy, it’s simply prepared with a deft touch. First-time guests sit down expecting roadside diner fare near the Seaside Auto Mall, but leave with a satisfied smile.
