Flower pot bread was super good Celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary. I called ahead to make reservations. I told the hostess and I thought they would at least give us a treat or something. I know what good salmon tastes like and I should’ve known better than ordering it for my salad topping. The hostess was pushing their salmon specials. My hubby’s fish and rice pilaf was decent. But the prices are outrageous for mediocre dinner. We won’t be going there again or recommending it to any of our house guests or friends. It was a disappointing dinner outing. My sister had dinner there last year and she did tell us it was not worth the prices. Sorry guys but a very happy day was closed out by a bad experience with your food and hostess and not your servers.

I would say this place is perfect, for a romantic getaway, but we went with friends and it was just as much fun. A mix of a seafood and steakhouse type of place. I ended up with a pork chop, which I don’t get very often and it fulfilled my needs to say the least. We enjoyed a little bit of the entire menu since we were among friends, but I will definitely be back just be forewarn, is a little warm in there.

Sow’s Ear is a top rate dining experience with a warm, cozy vibe, excellent service and an extensive wine list for the wine lovers out there. One of their house specialties is the chicken and dumplings which is truly delicious and the portion is hearty too. Cioppino was their special tonight and my husband and I really enjoyed it. We had a table close to the fireplace which really added to the ambiance. Be sure to share the mud pie for dessert!

The food was INCREDIBLE, the flower pot bread was to die for. Wonderful service and atmosphere!! Our favorite spot so far in Cambria!
We had the chowder, Shrimp Scampi Italian style, the fisherman’s stew, and the Filet Mignon (made perfectly to order) all were so wonderful. We will definitely be back!

I came for the Rack of Lamb. No reservations in saying the best Lamb of my life. From gravy to Mint jelly (which was wonderful; I liked it better than Trader Vic’s) to the ultimate mud pie with French press coffee to the wine, worth every single penny. Let’s not forget the Flower pot bread bowl. Nutty and delicious! Impeccable service!! A little “cozy” euphemism for tight seating is the only reason for not giving 5 stars in the atmosphere category. If you like lamb, do it for yourself. Superb I CHOSE to order the extra delights, like the wine, coffee and dessert. No regrets whatsoever. Thank you so much for the lovely experience and fantastic food, Staff at Sow’s Ear

The chicken fried steak was great. And the bread, the bread is just incredible. I am 100% a bread snob, and I can’t tell you how amazing their house bread is. It’s like moist cotton candy. I don’t know how they do it but it’s magical. Atmosphere is perfectly lit too. Will come back soon.

Bread is soggy although it’s in heart shape. We ordered Beef Stroganoff and it looks and taste like fast food. Definitely not worth the money. Lucky the Creme Brulee taste ok. Atmosphere is ok if you don’t care about taste.

We had The Sow’s Ear cater our Thanksgiving Dinner this year and it was fabulous! We’re visitors up in Cambria for a family party, and no one was up to cooking an entire dinner. Michaela and her husband took care of this for us perfectly. From arriving when they said they would to the Flower Pot Bread, turkey, amazing gravy, to-die-for sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, cranberry relish, veggies, salad with homemade dressings – and don’t forget the pumpkin pie – we would do it again without thinking twice!
