Address: 48510 CA-1, Big Sur, California 93920
Nepenthe Restaurant is perched high above overlooking the Santa Lucia Mountains and the Pacific Ocean. It’s about a 10-15 minutes drive from Pfeiffer Beach. They have 2 parking lots are available for guests. One is located in front of the restaurant and the other is on an unpaved road right on the main road before the entrance. They are open at 11:30 am and if they are busy you can check out the other cafe called Cafe Kevah which is situated on the lower level. The restaurant and the Cafe pretty much have the same view.
During our first time visit, we arrived at 11:30 am and only waited for 10 minutes. But on our second time around, we arrived at 12:30 pm and waited for at least 30-40 minutes. They provided us with a pager that works even though we were in the gift shop or taking pictures around the area. They only have an outdoor dining area available as of now due to Covid and everyone is wearing a mask but you can remove it when you get to your table to eat. All the outdoor seatings have a panoramic view. We ordered the famous Ambrosia Burger, Chicken, and the Shrimp BLT sandwich. They were all served on a very delicious soft French roll. For dessert we ordered the famous Triple Berry pie baked with raspberries, strawberries, and boysenberries with walnut toppings.
