Best Brunch Restaurants in Solvang

First time there and everything was great. Going back.

Second time dinning at this restaurant and plan to return. We are in the area twice a year and will always include.

I’ve been here many times over the last 15 years and it’s such a beautiful restaurant. The food was amazing and our waiter was fantastic. Valet was terrific too. The hostess was a little stiff and standoffish which was surprising. We’d definitely return again hoping for a perfect dining experience. Thank you Chef!
