Food and service were excellent. Sides are big portions so overall price is reasonable. Shrimp cocktail was amazing!

Whenever we are in the area, we make certain to have a meal at The Willows. Beautiful restaurant with an amazing and attentive staff. The food is always exceptional!

Went there for 36th anniversary and everything was spot on. Very attentive polite staff that were all constantly checking in on us. Can't go wrong with the filet medallions and diver scallops. 👌👍💪

We've been here several times and the food is always incredible no matter what we order and the drinks are so unique! Rachel has been our server at least 3, maybe 4 times now, and she is very professional, but also very fun and personable! Definitely recommend a visit here and requesting Rachel!

Our reservation was at 6 PM, however, we arrived early at 5:30 PM and were promptly seated. Our server, unfortunately, I do not remember her name, was very polite and very attentive throughout our dinner. We both ordered from the show special menu. The food was really great and plentiful.

My wife's short rib dinner was very, very good according to her. My King Salmon meal was excellent. Because it was my wife's birthday they gave her a wonderful complimentary dessert.

Willows never disappoints! Excellent food prepared with attention to everything being just right. My husband has serious garlic allergies and they always take excellent care of him by preparing something special and safe. The staff are attentive and personable. If we lived in the area we would eat there often!!

Willows at Chumash is an excellent fine dining experience. Everything from the appetizers to dessert was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend the lamb chops. All if the staff we interacted with were friendly, courteous and helpful. We will definitely be back.

Great food! Pricey if you do everything a la carte but worth it for special occasions. They do have meals as well. Food is always amazing!

my wife had the surf & turf with a significant up charge for a ribeye instead of the filet the ribeye was very thin and very fatty (more than a normal ribeye) but it was cooked to perfection she did order the lobster well done (I know, but that is how she likes it) it was not even close to well done, but was good size and had a good flavor this dinner was a nice chuck of change and for the money it should have been what she ordered neither of us thought sending a lobster tail back to the kitchen was a good idea I had filet & scallops, both were good I had to ask for our coffee & tea to refilled after waiting for awhile We had been there before and had a wonderful experience and we were really looking forward to this one, sadly we were disappointed

I consider the Willows by far the best restaurant in Santa Ynez Valley. The food is superb and the service is always fantastic. Drinks are good and the atmosphere is soothing. It's a bit pricey but then you're getting your money's worth. Go hungry.

I have been here several times and always get the Impossible steak that comes with sides of veggies. It’s very well seasoned and very filling. Wonderful service and atmosphere

We sat out on the patio and had an incredible time. The service, food, and ambiance was absolutely perfect! We were still talking about it the following day!
