Jeff Marston of Marston’s 101 Restaurant in Atascadero

California cuisine opening at West Front Village

–Jeff Marston’s success with Marston’s Bar & Grill in San Luis Obispo has initiated an expansion of his culinary expertise, and Atascadero is the town of choice for this newest eatery called Marston’s 101.

“Marston’s 101 will have a simple but more upscale menu than Marston’s Bar & Grill in SLO, and the interior will be different, too,” said owner Jeff Marston. “We’ll have craft cocktails, craft beers, and most of the beers and wine will be local. We’ll have a full bar, too.”

Marston pointed out that this new restaurant will be a real family restaurant, much more family oriented than the SLO eatery. “We’re serving fresh made lemonade, iced tea, and soda, too.”

Marston said the eatery’s atmosphere is a bit more elegant than the original Marston’s Bar & Grill, which is a sport bar, but Marston’s 101 will still offer some of the great-tasting meals people have come to expect of Marston’s signature SLO style, such as the famous pizza and awesome flatbreads.

Marston’s 101 hours of operation are: Mon. – Thur.  11 a.m. – 10 p.m Fri. – Sat. 11 a.m. –  Midnight Sunday Brunch will begin at 9 a.m. Marston’s 101 will be opened until 10 p.m. on Sunday. Located at 9006 West Front Rd. in Atascadero, Marston’s 101 is easy to find. Call (805) 544-3668 for additional information.
