We found this gem on our anniversary trip. We hadn't been to Solvang in a bit but we were so nicely surprised with a few new places to enjoy. I have written reviews on a few of the other places went. All were awesome!

we had a really good experience. The burger was tasty, cooked well, and had a nice balance of flavors. The fries were perfectly crispy and well-seasoned--definitely a solid side. we also tried the mac and cheese overload, which had a unique twist with smoky brisket mixed in. It was creamy and flavorful without being too heavy. Service was quick and friendly, making the whole visit smooth and enjoyable. Overall, it's a great spot for a casual meal with good food and good service. I'll be back for sure!

Came for a day trip & was looking for a restaurant to eat at, wait was about an hour which was fine. The only downfall was we were seated (2) literally right outside the kitchen area that wasn't good at all....the service was great though just was not happy with where we were sat we asked and they couldn't put us elsewhere. Food was great the burgers are great, the Wings are out of this world. Overall it's a great place to eat.

My Husband and I came here in September for the first time. It was our 35th wedding anniversary and we wanted to go somewhere special. We met Matthew Negrete, the Director of Operations and he treated us like we were royalty. Our waitress was named Carrie, and she made our visit wonderful too. Honestly, when people are that nice it really wouldn't have mattered what the food was like, but the food is amazing. We came back in December to celebrate my birthday, and they both remembered us, and treated us like we were practica... read more

I hated Solvang and don't want to ever come back, BUT the bbq here made me consider coming back. Our first stop was Whiskey 'N Rye, we didn't have a reservation and they had availability to seat us for lunch. The ambiance was not what I was expecting, it was a lot smaller and a darker vibe, but the service was great, I wish I remembered our servers name because she was wonderful. The food was perfect, I haven't been to a lot of bbq spots, but this is absolutely top 3 for me, everything was delicious! If you come here and lov... read more
