“It was nice and the atmosphere was great”

“I was here 4/6 for the first time. I came here because I saw that people commented that they had gluten-free baked goods, and I am an instant fan. The good or bad thing for me is that I live over 100 miles from here...so, I will have more reasons to vist family in Santa Maria just to make a stop here. So, what I got was the peanut butter cookie (best I've ever had with or w/o wheat). I also the super food latte w/beet root and raw cocoa...yum❣ Next time I'm adding and espresso shot to it. Ibrought home two different slices of their bread too... that I shouldn't have but tried anyway... rye w/walnuts and hard sourdough. Both tasty good. 🤩🤗🥖☕🍪”

“We were so hot touring Solvang and wanted to go into the first gelato place we could find... and we are so glad it was Via Gelateria! I had the hazelnut gelato and the salted caramel. Delicious!! Just what we needed to cool down.”

“We have a good experience with our young & Sharp bar tender, the German-American Lamar, he was so very attentive. The wine testing pretty good, tasted the industrial wine flight, We bought the bottle of Five Hearts.”

“My god this was the best bagel sandwich I've ever had, without question! Well done folks. I ordered the Benedict sando- the egg intentionally over hard to not be runny and interfere with the creamy goodness of hollandaise whipped with scallion cream cheese and a tomato slice to balance. I left the place wanting more!”

“Great food, wine, and ambience. They also have a petting zoo for kids, and they host parties too.”

“Great owners and wonderful staff. The location is excellent and the food incredible... They are not a regular restaurant, so check the day you are going to see what's on the menu and if they are hosting a private event. I totally recommend Fridays for the Viking Sandwich and a honey ale. They have awesome wines as well. One of the best local spots for my wife and I. Be sure to stop by when in Solvang.”

Wheelchair accessibility: The tables are high for wheelchair use. All of the chairs are stools.”

“Would pick this winery 100 times over sunset. Service and wines are 10/10. Mary was very attentive and informative. The entire sampler was delicious. Ended up taking two bottles”

“A perfect ending to a perfect day in Santa Ynez valley. Great company, great conversation, stiff drinks (Substituted Mezcal for Tequila in our Margaritas) and stellar service. My brother and sister-in-law are strict vegetarians. When we realized their vegetarian tostada's came with Mexican rice cooked in chicken stock, our hostess Kaitlyn was personification of equanimity and professionalism. Without skipping a beat and with grace took away their plates and remade their orders . Remained attentive to our needs , no awkwardness. It is said that salsas make or break a Mexican restaurant. The salsas for me were too mild but Kaitlyn and the rest of the staff had stellar service, were very welcoming, and their spirit and warmth more than made up for the lack of fire in the salsas... Though my brother found the salsa fiery too. And the drive back as the sun set and drenched the Santa Rita hills in amber glow was a cherry on top of the already great mood thanks to. Kaitlyn and the staff at Dos Carlitos (and the stiff drinks). Thank you.”

“Excellent and friendly service. Delicious brunch too”

“We did the tour and tasting and it was a wonderful experience definitely recommend. Brett was very knowledgeable about the grapes, vineyards and wine making process. Would recommend the tour and tasting and am hoping to come back during harvest season”

“good service the cheese and flight worked out”

“This is for the lounge specifically.

Came here with a few friends: bartender Rick is a gem. He makes some of the best drinks I've ever had - my friend found her favorite drink, old tootsie, and she usually doesn't like bourbon. Food options may look limited but each one provides quite the bang. For example, I hate gravy, but the gravy on the meatballs was absolutely fantastic... We ordered three rounds. Cajun shrimp was also phenomenal.”

“Panino's is absolutely a MUST STOP in Santa ynez. I visited as a pitstop on a road trip and got so much more than I was expecting. The food was out of this world amazing. I got the turkey and brie on baguette (10/10), my husband got the ham and Swiss on focaccia (10/10), and my MIL got the tuna sandwich on whole wheat sourdough (10/10). She did the half and half and was completely filled! My sandwich was a GREAT portion size, so much meat and cheese and definitely worth the price! The atmosphere is amazing, with plentiful outdoor seating that is comfortable. If I am ever back through this area, panino's will be a must-stop.”

“Food is delicious !! My favorite lunch place in Buellton!!”

“We had a delicious pizza very good, oh, and the wine was superb!”

“We had fun. Our host was had the best knowledge on wines. It was overall a good time. Beautiful vineyard definitely will come again.”

“To put things in perspective, I simply love the taste of pure coffee. I admire the elegant bean from drip to espresso. With this and even beyond into the fancy-pants lattes and holiday drinks, Queen Cup is always sure to tip the balance toward the beans — making certain the presence of coffee shines above all else. Behold, the vanquishers of goopy syrup and cloying drinks — Queen. Cup. Coffee. ☕🏆 ...oh yes, and their teas are rather quite lovely. 🧐🤌”

“Lovely coffee shack named after legendary Lefty Frizzell, the first country singer to get a star on the Hollywood walk of fame. He was a big influence on names like Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson. Check out his song “Cigarette and Coffee Blues” while you drink your coffee here. ☕️”
