“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.”

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.”

“Everything was great. We had the short rib, watermelon salad, green olives, and the soup of the day, which turned out to be cheeseburger soup. Surprisingly, it was really good. It even came with its own potato chips on top, which made it even more fun.

The food was fresh and well-balanced, and the service matched the quality. Nothing felt overdone or fussy, just solid flavors in a nice setting.

If you’re in Solvang and want a reliable, well-executed meal, Mad & Vin is a great choice. Also, get the soup if it’s cheeseburger day. Seriously!”

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 bought a vegetarian sandwich and a black forest ham and cheese. These are very good sandwiches but we didn't think they rated more than 4 stars. We ordered two salads and both came with a balsamic dressing that we thought had a harsh taste, perhaps because the ratio of vinegar to oil was too much or the balsamic vinegar was not very smooth. A decent, but not exciting choice.”

“We stopped here after going to Solvang Brewery because we wanted to bar hop but no are specifically trying other beers in the area. We were surprised to walk into a beer shop with a nice gentleman who could tell we looked lost but when I asked about the bar the said it was a membership bar but since it was our first time he let us in as visitors with a pass to what I now know is a speakeasy. Super cool entrance which explains unassuming the beer shop. We were welcomed and impressed by the beer selection on tap. The server was very knowledgeable and the patrons were all extremely friendly and welcoming. We struck up a few conversations about beer, about the locals and just general chit chat with good beer and good people. They also sell snacks and there's an outdoor patio and games to play, things to read, and just a very cool atmosphere overall. Nothing snooty or pretentious about this place. It's great to be in a comfortable setting with mature adults who just love beer! Highly recommend place to chill and slavtually conversate with fellow beer admirerers. We would definitely go back and if you're local a membership is worth it.”

The flavors we tried were so tasty (the hawaiian and dreamcicle with coconut). To top it off you can add ice cream to the bottom which made this truly wonderful. Can't wait to try you all again. Thank you!”

We tried the Sausage Sampler which showcases different sausages from around the world. We chose these 3 sausages: Rod Polse, Bratwurst, & Kielbasa. We also tried the Apple & Arugula Salad and All American Burger. We enjoyed our food and the atmosphere of just being in Solvang. Seating here is all outdoors, so bring a jacket. It was chilly the night we came.”

“Amazing food and even better service!
Taco Roco is one of my favorite places to eat! The food is absolutely amazing, the prices are great, and the staff is super friendly and welcoming. When we came in, they took about 10 minutes to go over the whole menu with us, giving us different options and choices without ever making us feel rushed.

My family is big and we usually take a little longer to order, which sometimes upsets people at other places — but not here! Everyone was so patient and kind. Julian and Michelle were especially wonderful! They were incredibly friendly and helpful. Michelle even helped my sister take care of her baby girl so she could sit down and enjoy her meal. That meant so much to us!

The staff here is great, and a lot of them are local, which makes the whole place feel even more comfortable and welcoming. We always have a great experience here. Highly recommend Taco Roco if you want delicious food and amazing service”
