They are also pouring Honest Abe ciders which are the best so that tells me the owner really knows what's up! We had spent some time in SLO - and unfortunately none of the beers in that city tasted right. Service here was great. They have plenty of seating outside, some inside on the first floor and the second floor had space as well. Bathrooms were clean. We ordered kids pizza, fries, tri tip sandwich and onion rings. All the food was delicious with the exception of the tri tip meat itself. That was close to moist jerky. As bizarre as it seemed to me to put pico on it, the side of pico they served it with, saved the whole sandwich . Glad we stopped by. The family had a good time.

I've stayed at Sideways Inn many times over the years and have often used it as the home base for…read moregolf and wine weekends with friends. Until this visit, I've always had a positive impression. Last night, our group purchased drinks from the Sideways Lounge and sat in the outdoor fireplace area. One member of our group was smoking when an employee approached us and rudely told us smoking wasn't allowed there. That wasn't the issue--we would have gladly complied if the policy had simply been explained respectfully. Instead, we were interrupted multiple times while trying to ask why there were no signs indicating the rule. The employee repeatedly responded, "Well, I'm telling you now." He then told us to go outside the fenced lounge area--even into the parking lot--to smoke, despite posted signs stating that alcohol cannot leave the lounge area. The interaction felt unnecessarily confrontational and inconsistent. Businesses absolutely have the right to enforce their policies. Customers should also expect to be treated with courtesy and respect. Unfortunately, this one interaction overshadowed an otherwise enjoyable trip. After years of staying here and recommending the property to others, I no longer plan to return or recommend Sideways Inn for future golf and wine weekends. I sincerely hope management addresses the customer service issues that led to this experience.

Fantastic experience! We wanted to stop by a lunch spot on our way back from San Diego and decided…read morefor Industrial Eats. The food was very much to die for and at pretty reasonable prices, our meal came out to be ~$80. Lots of cute pictures done by one local artist for sale and TONS of cookbooks lining the self service area. Extensive menu. We got the: Escargo and Bread - Absolutely amazing, buttery, decadent. Nothing to complain about here. Mussels and Frites - Delicious and perfect for two servings. We took the sauce home and made a pasta with it. Fries are great. Brussel Sprouts - My least favorite as it was undercooked and not as crispy as I would've liked but still delicious. Only thing I would knock on is the bathroom. The toilet seat is quite industrial. Would definitely come back.

Been eating here for years. Sunday night ordered turkey sandwich and shrimp with bread…read more The woman behind the counter was wearing an offensive shirt, saying" I am a Fuc_ing Ray of Sunshine" ... Once we set down and receive the turkey sandwich, I was really disappointed. It was very small.. I shared it along with the shrimp and the bread. .....two days later went back to the resturant & spoke to the manager/ owner woman. I sat with her to explain how rude the shirt was for counter woman to wear..because there was families with kids .The owner seemed to not care..She offered me another turkey sandwich. IT looked normal size. I thanked her and AS I WAS LEAVING SHE HAD THE NERVE TO SAY..." Hope to See you Fuc_ing soon. This shocked me and proved that the woman was crude and extremely unprofessional. This place has gone downhill. She just lost a lifetime customer, and obviously she didn't care..

(If you sit in the middle of the easternmost dining room you'll have a great view of it.) I've had numerous steaks, their pork chops, lamb, and quail and it's all delicious. Right now I am absolutely in love with their duck. It's really good. The wines here are great as well. They make their own wines, and specialize in Pinot (their Big Circle Syrah is pretty good too). They really care about their wines and it's very apparent in their taste. The service here is excellent as well. This is an amazing place that we make sure to visit every time we're in town.

For the last 40 years, the Hitching Post has been a Buellton institution, serving oak grilled…read moresteaks "West Coast BBQ" style and their own wines. Like many people I heard about it because of the movie Sideways with Paul Giamatti. Despite its notoriety, this place feels authentic and hasn't been over taken by the fame monster...not in the slightest. They just offer great food, great service, and great wines. For all the hype, this place was better than I expected. The patio views out back were sweeping, and I highly recommend coming here when it's still light out (lunch or an early dinner) so you can see what I mean. The views were better than the scenery at some of the winery vineyards in the area. For lunch, I took the recommendation of the worker and got "the best thing on the menu" which was their steak and caramelized onion sandwich. I dont normally order this kind of thing but she convinced me of it and I am glad I listened to her. It was juicy and savory, and the steak was so nicely seasoned. Whenever I've gotten a steak or beef sandwich before usually you have to dip it in au jus bc it's on the dry side, but this was not the case at all here. There was no aioli or sauce to drown out or hide the quality of the meat. It was perfection. We also tried the grilled chicken sandwich which also was beautifully seasoned and slightly blackened and had the juiciest tomato with it. Overall: a very simple lunch but done extremely well, with the best outdoor views in town. As a bonus, birders may appreciate seeing the occasional hawk high overhead or the abundant Blue Jays on the patio. Ample parking on sight.

Choosing Vega Vineyard & Farm for our October 2025 wedding was one of the best decisions we made…read more The venue is absolutely gorgeous, but it was the people who made us fall in love with it. From day one, Jimmy and Jessi made us feel welcomed, cared for, and supported, and that feeling never changed. Every corner of the property felt like something out of a dream. From exchanging vows surrounded by stunning scenery to celebrating under the stars in the courtyard, each moment was more beautiful than we imagined. What makes Vega so special is that it feels like more than just a venue. It's a place we'll continue to visit for years to come, celebrating anniversaries and future milestones. The food was incredible. Our guests are still talking about the salmon, roasted lamb, fresh salads, and amazing orzo. Every dish was beautifully prepared, and the family-style meal created such a warm and connected atmosphere. We truly wouldn't change a single thing. Our wedding day was perfect, and we will forever be grateful to Jimmy, Jessi, and the entire Vega team for making it such an unforgettable experience.

They came out after a few minutes. Both were very good! My only criticism of the margarita is that I think it's honestly the smallest one I've received whilst dining out. Otherwise, it was very delicious! Not too sweet, not too strong. For food, we opted for the chicken bbq pizza which was very delicious. A perfect balance of toppings with a crust that has a nice bit of crisp to it. It's something we've ordered a few times and has been consistently yummy. The last few times I've come to 555, I've gotten an espresso martini! It's not a cocktail that I thought would be a go-to of mine but it's so delicious each time I get it. Overall, the staff is very kind each time we come and we will continue to. Very easy and convenient place for a drink and to hang out.
