Best Californian Restaurants in Santa Ynez

Great food and top service. Only thing was it took a while to get our main courses, but again, the food was top and as good as a restraunt in Beverly hills.

Considering it was Valentine’s Day I think the restaurant did amazing overall! The food was amazing, the service was top notch. The noise was very loud but that’s understandable considering how many tables were in there. We will definitely be back.

Fantastic cocktails and food. Alberto has hospitality nailed from opening the doors to greet you to checking in on what you need. The cocktails are interesting and inspired, pairing flavors together to make a wonderful experience. The food is outstanding as well. I love the decor too; I t’s small and cozy. I’ve been there for breakfast, lunch and dinner and loved it each time. Even dropping in fir a delicious coffee or tea is great as well. A must stop when in the Santa Ynez valley.

The team at Barbareño was so lovely! Thank you for making my husband feel special on his birthday. We enjoyed their signature Santa Maria BBQ platter the most of anything we ordered and their homemade sourdough is out of this world delicious.

The best food ever! It was quiet and intimate. We had an excellent time
