Brunch was outstanding! Service from the front door to a hearty thank you as we left, was as it should be and then some. Food was excellent, my bacon was perfect. Wifey's eggs Benedict twist had her singing. Can't wait to visit Solvang again, so we can visit once more!!! read more

Oh my stars, this review is so overdue it's practically ancient. But how could I delay sharing the enchantment of this Solvang treasure? From the moment I stepped inside, every detail had my attention. Despite the cold temps, we asked to be seated on the outdoor patio(cozy firepit table and heat lamps of course). Then when the live music began, I was in the zone. And this was even before the dinner people. Then my cheeseburger arrived and it was pure delight, cooked to perfection. Hubby ordered the Short Rib Grilled Cheese with tomato soup. Right up his alley and did not disappoint. He may have licked the plate. Just when we were thinking the evening couldn't possibly get any better, Kaitlyn Chui started singing and playing guitar beautifully with her Father. It was one of those nights you just don't forget. read more

Craft House at Corque has the potential to be a 5-star restaurant, but customer service really needs improvement. Our party of 4 was seated and waited about 20-30 minutes without a waiter in sight. Meanwhile, a table seated after us had already placed their order and received drinks. I eventually had to flag someone down, and they mentioned they would get our waiter. They later returned and took our order themselves, saying our waiter, Christian, would be with us shortly. To Christian's credit, he did apologize when he arrived, but throughout dinner the service continued to fall short. He would stop by asking if everything was okay while our cups sat empty, then walk away without offering refills. We had to specifically ask for water and drink refills. At the end of the meal, we also weren't asked about dessert or whether we needed anything else. We had to ask for the check and he pulled out of his vest. That said, the restaurant itself has a great atmosphere. The outdoor seating is beautiful, especially the built-in fireplaces at the tables, which we really enjoyed. The live music also added a nice touch to the evening. Food-wise, the appetizers were the highlight. The ceviche and flautas were excellent. I ordered the Black Tie Burger, which was just okay, but the fries were delicious. read more

Super cute spot, we sat outside with a fire pit table. It took a while to order, we had to flag someone down to let them know we hadn't seen our waiter and ppl seated after us had already got drinks. We got the ceviche, Cesar salad, potato taquitos, burger and the truffle gnocchi. Everything was great besides the truffle gnocchi. It was a let down, the texture was weird and it was pretty bland. All in all everything was pretty good and food came out fast. I think our waiter knew, we had to ask for things that were obvious like needing more water and the check. read more

After a couple hours of shopping and walking around, everyone was hungry! We had such a great experience at our last visit that we had to return to Craft House with our daughter. The last time we dined it was too cold to sit outside. We were hoping to sit outside this time, but the wind suddenly kicked up, so inside we went (again). We were seated by the front window which at least gave us some sun. :) We ordered two favorite items -- The Spicy Pig and Prime Rib Dip. Our daughter chose the Truffle Gnocchi which was a standout with that fantastic sauce, pillowy spinach gnocchi, artichokes and garnish of fried spinach. We decided to try the Burrata & Greens to share. Everything was delicious -- no complaints! Fresh, flavorful and so, so satisfying! Ryan was our wonderful server -- perfectly friendly and attentive. It was another wonderful experience. We look forward to next time! read more

Shared an entree with my mom for a late dinner as we weren't too hungry. We got the Prime NY strip which is served with duck fat potatoes. It far exceeded my expectations! The steak was super juicy with a delicious limey chimichurri sauce. The only thing is, we ordered medium rare and I'd say it was closer to a medium, but the fact that it was still juicy made it not a big deal. The duck fat potatoes on the side were an absolute treat. Crispy and flavorful on the outside with a tender interior. Would order the potatoes alone. Despite the food being good, I think it's extremely overpriced at $48. Quality and portion wise the entree reflects a maximum of $35 I would say .The service was excellent! Kind host that helped open our door and picked a disability friendly table. Our server was also super nice. read more

Dinner tonight was at The Craft House Day one of my husband's BDAY trip. I have to say this is a pretty cool place. ****MAKE RESERVATIONS**** As you walk towards the entrance, you are serenaded by a live band (with an awesome volcalist) as the heaters warm your way. The entrance opens up to a large atrium with a chandelier as a centerpiece. Our server was Christian. He was a lil aloof but very professional ...at first, but once we joked with him, an awesome personality popped out and gave us amazing professional service. The poor guy was being pulled in a million directions! The restaurant is modern but with an upper class old school whiskey lounge feel. What did we order? Rating 5 is the best! Sea Bass Definitely a 4...portion was small and the fennel salad overpowered the taste. The sea Bass was cooked perfectly and buttery. The potatoes were perfectly paired. Prime Rib 4!! They definitely know how to season it, and it was actually medium rare. The only reason it didn't get a 5 was a big portion (about 1/3) of it was just fat. The broccolini was overcooked and bland. The mashed potatoes were yummy. 3. Crab cakes 4 definitely not the usual deep fried. They seemed baked and had a ceviche taste to it. Very different and refreshing. Just didn't pair well with the prime rib. Asparagus Yummy 5. Perfectly seasoned and crispy cooked! Loved it! Valley Fog 5!! It came out smoking looking like a fog!! So awesome! The flavor was strong and yummy. They do not skimp on the adult soda part. Hubby's BDAY treat were the beignets! 5!!! These were amazeballs! Nice and warm. Light and crispy on the outside (covered in powdered sugar) and oozing with the right amount of melted chocolate! Perfectly made!!! This is definitely a come back spot and worth the splurge! The bill with tax was about $200. Yes!!! Budget!!!Worth it!! read more

Loved everything about this place! Amazing service, aesthetic, and vibe. I really wanted to dine outdoors because of the beautiful fire pits at each table, but it was a little too chilly for me to be outside. Our server was super attentive and very friendly. The Unicorn Paloma was delicious and pretty. The lava salt rim and unique blue ice cube..such a fun fruity cocktail! Not too sweet and had the right amount of sour. It was smooth and well balanced. Kudos to the bartender! We shared the Black Tie Burger and Spicy Pig Pizza. The burger was juicy and paired well with the bourbon bacon jam and black truffle aioli. But it doesn't stop there. They add aged white cheddar for depth of flavor and fresh arugula for a peppery bite! This is my kind of gourmet burger. The fries were wonderful too! Gosh even the ranch dressing! Tasty! I like my fries on the thicker side and these definitely hit the spot. Very generous portions. The Spicy Pig Pizza was outstanding. The crust was thin but not too thin- it had a sweetness to it which I enjoyed. The Nduja sausage provided a little heat from the fiery red Calabrian chili peppers. Then you have the classic bacon and pepperoni topped with burrata (yum!) with a drizzle of hot honey...chef's kiss! The next time I'm in Solvang, I'll make sure to try the Short Rib Grilled Cheese. It sounds divine! This was a very memorable dining experience. I'm happy I chose this restaurant for dinner! read more

We stayed overnight at Hotel Corque. The Craft House is located right next door within the same parking lot. If tasting wine all day didn't do the trick, you can always stop by the bar to get a nice cocktail. Extremely friendly bartender and servers.

We booked our rehearsal reception on the outdoor patio with a portion of the bar -- and honestly, it was the perfect setting to kick off our wedding weekend. Melody, the event's coordinator is a seasoned professional. From the moment she came onboard, every logistical detail clicked into place. She's calm, sharp, and genuinely cares. The suggestions she made really made the night extra special. The entire venue staff was top-notch -- attentive, polished, and somehow always one step ahead. The food absolutely floored us. We walked in bracing for standard hotel fare and walked out raving. From the passed appetizers (tuna tartare cones, spiced cauliflower, mini beef wellingtons, and burrata crostini) to the taco bar, every bite was a hit with our guests. Bottom line: If you're planning an event, put the Craft House on your shortlist. They didn't just meet expectations -- they blew right past them. read more

Food was good. Appreciated the reservation aspect, and they were busy. I am trying to be understanding of that. Made it seem like I was inconveniencing them with the reservation "oh we can squeeze you in" ....ummmm thanks? Kids Mac n cheese was beyond bland. Kid spit it out. Ordered medium filet (I know but sharing with my son.) but still came out rare. Flavor was good, truffle butter good compliment but asparagus was cold. Again very busy, but our waiter just wasn't haven't a good day. Seemed very annoyed and rushed. Which he probably was, but still very slow service. Had to ask twice to get more water and Diet Coke. read more

Magical night ending with a great Happy Hour. The holidays are always special in Solvang but the price of a dinner is not. We were looking for a nice spot just to have a snack and a cocktail then head home for dinner. We choose to stop at the inviting Craft House. We sat at the lovely bar and ordered from the Happy Hour menu. They had an Old Fashion for $10!!!! My husband had a local beer. We ordered 3 appetizers: the potato taquitos, the Brussels sprouts and the cauliflower. Now that sounds boring but, oh no they weren't. Each with their own special dressings. And plenty of it. Yum!! FYI: There were two other apps with meat. Bottom line our bill was around $50 that included drinks and enough for a dinner. The bar area was cozy and decorated for the holidays. The service was perfect. read more

Today I came to this place with a reservation at 6:30 PM and the hostess tells me that the table is ready but I can't sit in it because my reservation is at 6:30 so I decided to go out with my family to walk around since we showed up one hour early prior to the reservation came back at 6:05 PM and asked if our table is ready and can we just sit down and a hostess replies that our reserve time is at 6:30 PM and that's the only time we can sit down so I asked is there even a table ready for us already and she replies yes it's already ready but your reservation time is at 6:30 PM and that's the only time we can sit you down. Besides being sat down at the table once we got the table, they gave our kids coloring pages, but nothing to color with so we waited for the server and asked them if they even have anything for the kids to color with and they said they have color pencils, but they ran out so we waited and received three coloring pencils of different colors, not sharpened and I had to go up to the front where the hostess was and ask them about sharpening the pencils. They helped me try to sharpen it, but the sharpener didn't work. So the lady started jamming the pencil to the sharpener because she was frustrated and stressed out because I could sit there and stare at her. We ordered the food. The server was really good at his job giving us the recommendations and I want the food came out. The portions just felt like it was really overpriced and we've pretty much felt like we can get this at Los Angeles like at an Applebee's. Don't let my pictures for you guys. I promise you the food is the same quality as Applebee's, but double the price so definitely not going to come back here again due to the hostess and the quality of the food plus the portions. read more

I had the Korean beef salad with filet mignon. It was easily the best item on the menu. The tender filet beef had a light sauce and it melted in my mouth. I was surprised as beef in a salad is usually not top shelf! I had so much beef in the salad that I gave some to my daughter's husband; "The Bear". He rubbed his tummy and ate the beef like it was from heaven. He wasn't far off. The ambience was nice with fire embedded in the table. The service was good and they had a wonderful singer singing boomer love songs. What's not to like? read more

Breakfast menu has not disappointed. I have had the breakfast sandwich, the chorizo quesadilla, the beignets and the potatoes. The breakfast sandwich is among the best I have ever eaten but my favorite has been the chorizo quesadilla. Phenomenal! Spicy and flavorful and the avocado crema goes well to complement the ingredients in the quesadilla. The service was excellent and the restaurant is very close to the center of Solvang (just a block over), making it an easy choice when visiting. I only have one thing that I found lacking and that was the chocolate sauce for the beignets. Just my taste buds. I am sure many people would enjoy it along with the other two options. read more

Shoutout to our server Ryan for being amazing! The food was so freaking good. I'm vegetarian and the menu was clearly marked with vegetarian and vegan options. I got the sweet and sour cauliflower and cannot recommend it enough. After a bad dining experience elsewhere in the city, I was a little worried to run into similar issues again, but everything we got here was fantastic. 10/10 The drinks were fun too. We got "kissed by a rose" which had a literal rose frozen in the ice cube, and "Valley Fog" which came out smoking with a bit of dry ice. Very cool, very fun, loved the food and the outside area. And again shout-out to the great hostess who got us seated and Ryan our amazing server! Oh yeah and there was live music :) so all around just a great time. And I should mention the portions were good, they looked a little small in some pictures but we were very full at the end. read more

We had our wedding in the courtyard and it was beautiful. They set up the chairs, moved the table out of the way, and an arch. They allowed us to come in 2 hours early told decorate the place. We had our own server who took our drink and appetizer orders. The staff was great. We were able to pick up the cake and leave it in their fridge around 12:00 so that helped relieve a stress on what was already a busy day. The food was great and we were also able to decorate the private room. This was a small wedding, but the courtyard is big enough to accommodate about 50 plus people. read more

Tucked away on the other end of Solvang, yet walking distance to all the sights, Craft House was a modern and classy yet cozy find to wrap up a lovely day walking around Solvang. The espresso marttinis were en pointe, bold with flavor and beautifully made. The Roasted Beet Carpaccio was a lovely start to the meal with delicate and well executed flavors. The Short Rib Grilled Cheese with Tomato Soup was generously portioned an perfect for a January evening. Thr Crispy Skin Salmon was delicately crisp and packed with flavor.

Have been here a few times before writing this review and it's been a pleasure every time. Their calamari appetizer is by far some of the best I've ever had. I love how crispy it is and seasoned to perfection. Today I decided to sit outside the bar and had a great time considering how busy it was going to be given it was post 4th of July here in Solvang. That was no challenge to our server Hally who ensured we were taken care of even as the restaurant filled up. Great venue, great menu, and great time. On previous visits it's also worth noting that all staff is friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. Even to our food runner Rolando who gave some great recommendations going into today's visit with the Spicy Pig Pizza. read more
