We have been here many times, this trip was disappointing. They served a "Jambon" sandwich which was mostly iceberg lettuce; gross! The server was unfriendly and slow, and they took forever to bring a heater. The salad was super, but the wine was way overpriced and not that good. Not sure we'll go back!

Michelin gave them one star, but I gave them 5. Checkmate Michelin.
All kidding aside, this place was phenomenal and was a great way to end my trip to Southern California.

You would never think you’d find this type of dining in a small town like this. Everything was great, we look forward to going back in the future.
My wife and I came here with our newborn for her Birthday dinner and it was terribly lacking. The best surprise was the uni appetizer, which I typically avoid but actually enjoyed here.
Although the atmosphere was unique, the service was completely inadequate. Our server was helpful, however after we noticed an insect in our salad, we were both utterly repulsed. A manager / supervisor simply brushed the whole thing over and dismissed it as freshness from their garden.
Typically, I would not excuse this absolute disregard of customer service, but my wife mentioned she was exhausted and just wanted to get through the meal at this point. We love fine dining and even at lower end restaurants the staff have always done their best to offer a discount, additional dishes, gift cards, etc. Nothing was offered and nothing further was said regarding the incident.
Would never recommend this restaurant.

Incredible food. Concise menu. Steak frites and egg sandwich are favorites. Dog friendly patio is a plus!
Absolutely phenomenal. They're so talented they made squash delicious. The server, Cody, was very attentive, courteous, and all around fantastic.

This is one of the best meals I've had in the US. While it's a bit pricey and the food takes a little time to prepare, it’s absolutely worth it. If you're traveling between Southern and Northern California (or vice versa), this is the perfect spot to stop for a delicious meal.

What a surprise find in Los Alamos! We are from out of state visiting SLO, and on a day trip from SLO we found this French restaurant on Google map, what turned out to be better than a lot of restaurants we’d been to in France. You will love it.
Fantastic dinner and service. Cozy atmosphere and delicious food. Don't miss the pre set 5 course meal dinner if you're in the area.

Phenomenal dining experience. I went with my husband and teenage son for a late lunch on a Saturday. Everything was perfect from the educated and attentive wait staff to the music playing on the patio. The food highlights were the gazpacho and egg salad sandwich along with the Bell’s salad but honestly everything was swoon worthy. Will be back!
We recently had a small rehearsal dinner at Bell’s out on the patio. The best word for our experience was exceptional. The setting out on the patio was perfect and beautiful. The hors d’oeuvres were delicious and very unique. The dinner, as expected was outstanding, and our server was probably the most knowledgeable we’ve ever had. We all agreed that it was one the best dining experiences we’ve ever had. Thank you Bell’s team!

Wow - I figured this place was a dump and the owner was simply getting all his friends to mark it up on Google.However, as a foodie, this place won me over, several times. The offerings here have a far more interesting flavour, a better bite, and more complexity than several popular Solvang area restaurants, e.g., SY Kitchen. I recommend the deli samples. Even the simply ham and cheese sandwich takes ham and cheese to a new plateau. Great place for cyclists. Very inviting. Crowded on a Sunday afternoon a 2 PM on an off day. This really does deserve the high rating on Google.

A serious restaurant that doesn’t take itself seriously.
World-class cuisine in a lovely informal environment, with an efficient warm professional staff.
