We went on a Valentines day, obviously it was packed, parking was difficult and an hour wait, again I understand it was Valentines day. So it was not an issue we kinda expecting that. But despite the busy night, service was still great, AJ our server was awesome! I like that they have pleanty of options on their menu. The food is very good, a little bit on the under seasoned side, but still good.

Great rustic atmosphere with fantastic food. We really enjoyed my daughters dinner there. The portions are large enough for two to three meals for me. It was worth every penny. Although parking can be a challenge sometimes.

We had such an awesome time. Waitress was super sweet, organized, and fast. There was around 20 of us ordering and demanding stuff from her, but she took such a good care of us along with the rest of the staff. They accomodated all of our needs and the food was delicious. Those garlic buns were super delicious and the Strawberry lemonade was fantastic. I had the soup of the day and it was so good. I order the wrangler burger and couldn't finish it cause I was full, but boy it was so good. Ill definitely be back and recommend this place to anyone who has a large family. Definitely during the week is a best option if you have a large family since it can get pack on the weekend, but overall. I recommend this place to everyone.

If you travel to Santa Maria you must sample the tri-tip and this place did not disappoint!! The tri-tip was slowly cooked to perfection. We were in a party of 14 and nobody had a complaint, in fact, we sampled each other's food and had a great time and left stuffed with leftovers!

The food was delicious. Their version of the blooming onion was good, but the dipping sauce was too runny. My girl had the ribeye steak with mushrooms, and it was delicious. Perfectly cooked. My prime rib was freaking delicious 😋. The staff was very attentive.

Cool spot with great service and an awesome staff, everyone was friendly and attentive. Appetizers were very good, and the sides and desserts really stood out. Unfortunately, the ribeye ordered medium rare came out overcooked and not very tender, which was a letdown. That said, everything else was solid, and I’d definitely come back for the sides, appetizers, and desserts.

Everything was good, the food was good, drinks were relatively strong, service was prompt...but definitely on the pricey side, expect 30-40 dollars and up per plate. A good experience, but I'm not sure that the value is there for me.

the food is really good, but they are too strict with the kids menu. my daughter is autistic and likes to order off the kids menu, even though she is a little bit older then the age limit. she also doesn’t eat very much so the smaller portions are better for her, they would not let her have the kids menu despite us explaining the situation. we will probably not be back

The clam chowder is 99% water and celery. The ahi tuna tasted like a sponge full of dishwater and the steak was overcooked. We wasted $60 and threw it all away. Don't waste your money here. The staff was very polite though. Food is just trash.
