“One of my favorite newer discoveries on The California Central Coast in Los Alamos..@TheMakersSon. An historic location, rich in local history, offers up beautiful craft cocktails, local wines and their chef’s culinary creations are sublime! (That watermelon salad 🥰) Always love our girl chats on life with my beautiful friend @donnapolizzi8 …and this restaurant was the perfect frame and setting! #themakersson @keys2thecoast #LosAlamos #appetizers #craftcocktails #finedining #patiodining #eventspace“

“While planning a mini roadtrip through PCH last week, my hubby had this place on his list for a lunch spot. It was recommended by a buddy of his and we ended up really enjoying it! We were staying about 20 mins away, so it wasn't too out of our way.

We arrived right before noon and there was plenty of parking. We headed into the taproom and checked out the place. It's a very nicely built brewery and it was pretty lively inside. There was the option for outdoor seating, bar seating and booth seating available. It was a beautiful day outside, so we opted to sit outside. The staff was very kind and attentive.

I wasn't feeling like drinking much, especially because I was going to be the one driving next. I already knew I liked the Cali Squeeze Blood Orange, so I ordered the Cali Squeeze Peach Pomegranate this time, which was deliciously refreshing. My hubby ordered a variety of barrel aged beer like the Parabola and Anniversary are the only ones I remember. All I know is he really enjoyed them, especially with his Cali-Western Smash Burger he ordered lol. I ordered the Mezze Burrata & Chickpea Salad with Chicken which was amazing! I would love to eventually visit their other locations. Totally recommend!“

“Consumo Eddie's Grill de Lompoc y me parecen muy buenas. En Buellton las comi hace tiempo y no me parecieron muy buenas, esta segunda vez, los felicito están buenísimas la hamburgers y las papas fritas muy crunchy, en su punto, y excelente atención 👌🏼😋😋😋 muy recomebdable!!!“

“This place was one of our favorite spots for cocktails and food in Buellton! We stayed next door at the Flying Flags RV park, and the Sideways Lounge is a short walk to get there, part of the Sideways Inn.

The drinks were on point (they made me a proper Negroni that was perfect)! The Belgian fries and dogs were super tasty and indulgent. The outdoor space was really comfortable, and the fire kept us cozy on the chilly night we were there. The whole lounge is very modern, clean, and well-maintained with plenty of seating space indoors and outside.

Mike, the bartender/server, was super friendly and helpful, and he provided us some great tips for exploring wineries around Los Olivos. I will definitely return here next time I'm staying in Buellton!“
