/the Dockside Too in the Heart of Morro Bay Califfornia
Morro Bay is a small city on Highway 1, the Pacific Coast Highway, it lies justt North of San Luis Obispo the city is dominated by two major features, the man made and natural.
The man made features are the three chimneys of the Morro Bay power plant. The natural is a massive mound of granite rising from the sea, known as Morro Rock. Morro Rock is all that remains of a great volcano which must have dominated the region in prehistoric times. The rock is actually the plug which formed in the heart of the volcano as it died.

To get to Dockside Too drive off Highway One down towards the chimney's of the power plant, if you keep going downhill you are heading the right way as the restaurant is as it name suggests right on the dockside.
This area is filled with several fish restaurants, all of which are pretty good.
Dockside Too is unique in that it is totally a dine outside restaurant. Very nice on Spring and Summer days. Though I would advise maybe taking a jacket and sun lotion with you as it can be cold by the Ocean inlet and the sun is also very intense.
Among my favorite foods at the Dockside Too are their fish and Chips. Fish are caught fresh, This cod had been swimming in the Pacific that very morning.
Staff are very friendly and special to their ordering is that you go into their fish market to order. As your meal comes ready you are called back to collect your meal, a little like a fast food restaurant, but here you can choose your own portion which is cooked to order.
Also the owners of the restaurant are dog lovers, if you have your dog with you he or she can drink a cool bowl of water before you all go for a walk on the beach and a basket of dog treats are kept available for your pet.
