Great spot. Fried chicken sandwich for lunch is their go-to. The hamachi and Caesar salad were also good, and the strawberry tart dessert was great. I’d definitely go back and recommend if you’re in town.

This is a wonderful place to have lunch. The service is impeccable (they add a gratuity to the bill, but it’s well deserved) the food is wonderful. We both loved our sandwiches with the crispy chicken on the brioche bun being our favorite but we...Read More

We had not only a great meal, but wonderful experience. We tried the hamachi collar, branzino, scallops, yellowtail crudo. All were fantastic, presented beautifully and flavorful. Recommend the chocolate dessert. The staff was friendly and obviously enjoyed working together. I enjoyed the setting too!

Unmatched! The absolute BEST dinner spot in the Los Alamos, Los Olivos, Santa Ynez triangle. Don't skip the sea urchin, best there is. Fresh, simple, delicious. And the people are wonderful. Friendly, quirky, fun!
