    This was our “date night” and we were recommended to come here. Our first time and it was fabulous. Service is everything and the level of service was outstanding. We felt like our own family was looking after all our needs. On top of the service was great food, atmosphere, and value for the overall experience. Scheduling for our next time.

    After 15 years it is still the best pork chops I’ve ever had. I traveled 2 hours to get there 15 years ago. This time we stayed in Solvang from San Diego and had to go again. We made reservations since the place is always packed! It was a sheer delight to eat, perfect service and an amazing value.

    Our meal and service were impeccable! From the very moment we walked in with our two little kids, the maitre’d made us feel so welcome. He also made sure the kitchen accommodated my little one with a severe food allergy. The food came out quickly and every bite was exceptional. The service was so friendly from our waiter to our busser and everyone in between. I was very impressed and am excited to return again and again. Thank you!

    Overall I would give it a 5*. Food was so delicious that we went there twice in a row. Drinks are great too. First time around our server was very nice and warm, however, second time, our server ignored us most of the time, brought straw after reminding 2 times.
