“If you're looking for a winery look no further than right here. The wines are delicious and yummy and tasty. Further, they are very affordable as far as any wines go in the area and they are every bit as worth it. Lori and Mary who are your wine experts at this Winery make it even the more worthwhile to be here.“

“This winery is absolutely gorgeous! The grounds are spotless, the views are spectacular, and the wine is great. The tastings by appointment only make your experience intimate and memorable. The staff is knowledgeable and warm. Highly recommend adding this to your wine tour.“

“very good. Disabled parking is in the back. Great service.“

“Superb experience at Roblar Vineyards from the moment we entered and it continued through our departure. The hostess was kind, efficient and caring when seating us. Then on to the service that we chose - a wine tasting and lunch (we had made reservations) We received pleasant and informative wine descriptions from our knowledgeable sommelier with each taste and the proper improvised wine-taste choice that he knowingly paired with my meal! Our meals, the roast salmon and a Cobb salad were perfection enhanced with their high standard of farm fresh vegetables. As we finished, feeling totally content and enjoying the ambiance of soaring ceilings of the timber frame tasting room with the massive fireplace warming our souls, we were visited by Matt, the owner. We had an engaging chat, with him entailing the history of the vineyard and its ongoing development of the vines, the farm and the buildings. Finally, we walked the beautiful estate grounds past the active vegetable gardens to the edge of the vineyards enjoying mountain scenery all around. A memorable experience with perfect food, wine, and caring people!
We highly recommend a visit!“

“Great set-up post Covid. Make a reservation and try great wines. Rich collection of reds, and they surprised me with Icewine. Outstanding service!“

“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.“

“All great bands food drinks staff customers!! Our favorite place to play! CROWN City Bombers love the Maverick Saloon!!“

“We came here for a wine tasting. It was beautiful with plenty of nice photo ops and the staff made it an overall fun experience. I had to leave with a membership and a couple bottles of my favorites.“

“Their breakfast burritos are delicious, and they’re friendly as well. Would recommend the habanero sauce if you love spice! 🙏 Perfect place for a quick stop or for a loaded breakfast ☺️“

“We had a reservation. When we arrived a little bit early they were able to seat us on time. A server promptly introduced themself, took drink orders and brought bread and butter. We ordered the Santa Ynez Restaurant Week menu. We started with a lovely salad, followed by our main courses: Surf & Turf for myself and the King Salmon for my wife. The presentation was beautiful. Everything was perfectly cooked. One of the best meals we have had this year! We finished up with dessert; Chocolate brownie with vanilla ice cream and chocolate sauce for me and lemon cake with a rasberry sauce for my wife that resembled a piece of art. Service throughout the meal was outstanding. We have dined here several times in the past and quality of food and service have always been top-notch. Highly Recommended!!“
