We split the 16 oz steak dinner and a side of asparagus and it was superb! I could not even finish mine and had some for breakfast! Sit in the dinning room on the left and you can watch them cook your meat outside on the grill! Highly recommend this restaurant is the very top of the charts!

Worth the detour as we made the drive up the 101 to Big Sur. Highly recommend, food was delicious. Service was great and efficient. Server and hostess were both friendly and attentive. Personally recommend the Spencer cut. Steak here is aged for 30 days and cooked over red oak, simply just amazing.

Jockso's is a great steakhouse and bar. They offer a wide variety of food products at a decent price. The steak plate is just that, cooked to order steak curry into sizeable cubes and some warm bread on a plate simple but delicious. On my last visit I enjoyed the BEST hamburger I've ever had! It was made with high quality meat cooked to perfection with fries and a salad as sides. I also had a recommended strawberry lemon drop that was very good. We ate our meal in the small bar with a long bar top and a few tables with chairs. It can get very loud in there so be ready. There are usually some wait times to get in but they are richly reward. Dress code is casual come as you are.

This is a fine dining place, and the food here is excellent. We love the atmosphere as well—the service was warm and welcoming. You can tell there are many diehard fans who come here to enjoy the 30-day dry-aged steaks. My son had a wonderful birthday celebration here.

Jocko’s in Nipomo — if you’re looking for one of those fancy big-city steakhouses, this isn’t your place.

This steakhouse is the epitome of “build it and they shall come”.

I thought this place was was just an overall great place to be. I didn't have a reservation, but I showed up within 10 minutes of opening and I was able to get a seat. I absolutely love pickles so I was very excited to get some thick juicy pickle slices when I got to the table. Additionally, the prices were incredibly fair. I ended up getting the small Spencer (8oz ribeye) for $40. The meal came with a really delicious and loaded salad, which I demolished without hesitation. Next, my entrée came (with a side of fries... because apparently I'm still a child) and it was INCREDIBLE... especially considering the price. The side of beans were also great. I can't say anything bad about the food at all! Finally, the meal also came with a small bowl of ice cream for dessert... which was just icing on the cake. I was afraid I would leave hungry, but I was incredibly satisfied. I think I'll make this place a must for whenever I'm in town again. This place is great!

Excellent steak at a reasonable price! The place is not fancy, but very homey, like a small town diner, which it kind of is. As you get out of your car in their ample parking lot, the enticing aroma of steak sizzling on the grill hits you. Unlike most steak places where everything is a la carte, at Jocko's everything is included in the price of the steak dinner: salad, Jocko’s savory beans, garlic bread, a side of your choice to go with your entrée (baked potato or broccoli, etc.) and dessert (we went with the rainbow sherbert and spumoni ice cream). We also ordered a grilled lobster tail as an extra "side" and they only charged us $29.95 for it. The lobster tail was huge and came with a cup of melted butter--pure decadence at a reasonable price. Our server, Kylia, was super attentive and checked on us often. This is a must stop when driving though Nipomo!

Best BBQ ribeye ever! Everything was delicious. Service was top-notch. Our waiter was amazing with professionalism and customer service. Waitresses were friendly and lovely. The clincher was the Thirfty Brand ice cream...superb. We will be back.

I’ve been coming to Jocko’s for years, and it never disappoints. Hands down the best ribeye anywhere grilled over a red oak wood-burning pit with incredible flavor. The lamb chops are massive and cooked perfectly. Full saloon style bar with great drinks! This place has been around a very long time.
