Federico's — Restaurant in Morro Bay

Amazing Food! My family managed a Mexican restaurant for years and are very picky about our Mexican cuisine but this checked all the boxes! INCREDIBLE food, great location, indoor and outdoor seating and open late (well, for Morro bay 9 is very late to us lol). I had the Enchilada Wrap with Chicken, I’ve never heard of such a thing as a “wrap” and was skeptical but it was incredible! I will order it again when I return and probably never switch- it was THAT good. Also the menu might not mention it but the meals did come with sides, mine came with with a side salad with some sort of creamy cilantro dressing that was bomb and, guac + rice on the side too. Boyfriend got the barbacoa burrito and liked it, he ordered a side of rice not knowing the burrito came with some rice, chips, guacamole and sour cream. I also had the mango beer and I’m not a beer person but it was to tasty and like a mango seltzer- highly recommend if you want a fun fruity bubbly drink. We sat it the patio and used the heaters which was perfect for our dogs to come with. Lastly they do have inside seating as well! Pleasant staff, good pricing, lots of food options, dog friendly patio & super nice staff, Federico’s is is a pleasant new addition...

A great new place in MB, authentically original. How do you do Mexican food in a new way when there seems like countless variations already? Fly in fresh fish from Kauai, supplemented with local catch, richly season and spice it, put in the good stuff and leave out the bad, and Voila, you have Federico’s. Having traveled to Kauai and lived in the central coast for many years, we know both places well, and so Maria and her team in the quiet northern coastal edge of Morro Bay have done both locales well here. They are tucked away in a corner of a small strip mall where several restaurants have come and gone, but if more people discover this place, Federico’s will be the place that is here to stay (finally!). Reasonably large portions, a fresh and varied menu, stuff for the kiddies, a simple vibe, sparkling clean, friendly service and good prices for this quality, so let’s hope they get discovered. Well done...

Noticed this new place and decided to swing by and try it out, glad we did. This is like a Hawaiian Mexican fusion place. Lots of traditional Mexican meats, barbacoa, chicken, pastor, carnitas, asada. But the kicker here is the fish! So nice to have a Mexican place that has a big seafood focus. Being able to have fish, shrimp, scallops and crab here is amazing. So fresh and delicious, their salsa and dressings are fruity and a nice change from just red or green sauce. I highly recommend the tacos with their homemade corn tortillas, the tortilla makes a big difference. The staff was very friendly and took great care of us. I look forward to coming back often. Barbacoa is super tender and delicious, my wife has ordered it each time we've come in. I am a fan of their pastor, while it's a bit different, it tastes like Mexican BBQ and with pineapple...
