    Incredible tempura asparagus with two dips: wasabi and ponzu. What's good about it? Comes with the BEST onion rings -light batter, crispy, fresh goodness. Doc and I had 2 different pizzas, hubs had a brisket with cole slaw. We had lemonade ice tea, peach ice tea and a tall bottle of sparkling water. Ordering and table staff are fast efficient, remove used plates quickly. Side room has a water station where you can get your own take out pizza or 2 sizes of left over boxes, napkins, table settings, and more. Very glad Doc researched and suggested this restaurant. One of the few pet friendly places grandpup could lie comfortably in AC on clean floor. Doc ordered her slices of turkey for her lunch.

    The food here is super tasty and quite unique from what you can get elsewhere. I love their variety of pizzas and side dishes, it's easy to order at the counter and get a bunch of variety to share. Definitely not the cheapest but the quality is there. I'd recommend trying it out if you're with a larger group in the area!

    Food is incredibly tasty We had a delicious dinner at Industrial Eats, their seasonal menu brings out the best of the area Loved it, you order at the counter, shared tables , dog friendly, it's a casual spot with elevated food options, highly recommended !

    This place has been on my radar since I lived in So Cal roughly 6-8 years ago. I gotta tell you it was totally worth the wait. It turns out they've even expanded. We shared a few personal size pizzas a bahn mi and Brussels sprouts and everything was on point. Friendly staff and plenty of area to sit. Great food worth the stop anytime.

    The best meal we had in the Solvang area. It was suggested I order the Caesar Salad, which I loved. Also ordered the Tempura Asparagus and Onions with miso and ponzu sauces, as well as the Mushroom Soup with Gruyère Grilled Cheese. Loved everything. Paired with local wines, this was a perfect meal. I'm normally not a fan of food halls, but this super exceeded expectations and not only was the food. Incredible but the ambience in the space was amazing. Everything is made to order and you can tell the difference. You may have to wait for a bit, but it's worth it because you know that it's fresh and literally started after the order was put in versus being prepped for hours before. Highly recommend.

    Looked around for something interesting to eat up in the Central Coast and met my cousin here for lunch. This is a little find! The owner took order. The food was wonderful. The service was very good and looking over-the-counter at other things being prepared... Oh my gosh, the sandwiches.!! Everything was fresh and good! great seating and a wonderful afternoon.

    We were looking for a nice casual spot to grab a quick and easy lunch and fortunately came across Industrial Eats in Buellton. What a fantastic find! We walked in and immediately got in line to order while we watched the crew working hard behind the counter. Everything on the tables from the other patrons looked and smelled so good we instantly knew we were in for a great experience! The portions aren't overly large but they're just right for anyone with a good appetite! We asked for some suggestions when we ordered and we weren't steered wrong! We ordered a BBQ brisket sandwich and petite filet, spinach, mushroom, mash, demi glace. It was all soooooo gooooood that we practically licked our plates! We also got some beer and wine to go with our meals and were very happy with our recommendations too (Kaena Syrah and Hook Line and Drinker Hazy IPA). Since the menu appears to change from time to time, it'll be interesting to see what they have available the next time we come in. Glad we have one more reason (excuse) to come back to Solvang and Buellton area! I hope you come in to experience the goodness that Industrial Eats has to offer too!

    Miso cod was seriously a 10/10!

    Amazing food and done fast. Fresh delish and very busy all the time! They have many options that change every day and was a wonderful experience. Highly recommend for lunch!

    Came here twice during a trip to the Central Coast, and this place is a gem in Buellton. The layout of Industrial Eats is pretty simple, just line up to order at the front of the counter, get a number, and find an open spot. They deliver the food to your table once ready. In the both times I went, I got the Beets and Hummus with chips, the Miso Cod with avocado, and the beef tongue pastrami Reuben. All the dishes I tried here were delicious and the quality was fresh, with my favorite being the pastrami Reuben. The pastrami was very tender and not overly salty, and really liked how complimentary the horseradish was with the pastrami. My only complaint is how overwhelming the menu can be just reading it when ordering at the front. There was one guy in front of me that felt stressed out about what to order. The service here was pretty nice. I would visit here again to try their pizza.

    Beef Tongue Pastrami Rueben
    Carlo G.

    I was looking for a quick and casual dinner in the Buellton area and I'm glad Yelp recommended me this spot! I ordered the Beef Tongue Pastrami Rueben and it was delicious! The sandwich was meaty and had great textures. The bread was crispy and buttery, the beef tongue was juicy and flavorful, the cheese and sauce was creamy and rich, and the sauerkraut was crunchy and tangy. All of these components combined made a tasty sandwich. I also liked how it came with a lettuce salad which provided a nice freshness to cut the richness of the sandwich. For around $20, this was a good value. You could even save the other half of the sandwich for another meal since it was very filling. Walking-in the interior was very social as you sit at shared tables with other people. The service was okay, but I wasn't the biggest fan of the cashier giving me some attitude when I asked what she'd recommend from the menu. Also, I asked for my order to-go, but they ended up just serving my order on a plate in-house. I didn't feel like asking again for my order to-go, so I ended up eating at the restaurant. I would recommend paying more attention to the customer's order in the future. They also have a parking lot in front and a self-serve water station. Overall, a good experience here. I would just recommend working on delivering a better customer experience.

    Butcher paper wall menu

    We stopped in after wine tasting for to-go items. I knew to expect that some things would be 86'ed by visiting later in the day. Many of the staff were courteous but all-business (of course, they were busy). The ever-changing list of seasonal menu items was posted on butcher paper on the wall. I had eaten here twice before and dined there, so this was my first carry-out experience with them. As with dine-in or carry out, drinks are in the cooler so grab your choice and bring to the counter to order your food. We ordered the brisket sandwich, which was small cubes of brisket rather than slices. The bun was soft and delicious and the slaw was well-dressed. The flavor of the brisket was good but the small cubes kept falling out of the sandwich. We also had the beet, hummus, citrus, lavash salad ($16), for which they smartly packed up the ingredients separately so we could self-assemble at home. The house-made lavash was crispy and delicious, almost like a garlicky pappadum. I loved that. The citrusy hummus was fine and the ruby beets unremarkable. Watching the plates come out of the kitchen, beautifully presented, and watching the industrious efforts of the cooks and servers in their open kitchen, I'd say it's still your best bet to eat in here, get there early for best selection, and read the reviews for stand-out items.

    Are they still dog friendly in 2024? All of the previous answers are 5-7 years old, and they seem to no longer have outdoor tables.

    When I visited in early November 2024, dog friendly!

    Does this have outdoor seating?

    They do, but it's a small outdoor space with a couple of tables that go fast.

    Do they take reservations?

    Not that I know of. But I highly recommend stopping at this place. I went there twice and have never had a long wait

    Is this place Dog friendly? Maybe on the patio?

    Yes and you can even bring dogs inside. At least when I was there, the guy at cashier told me I can bring dogs inside. I was gonna sit patio but I had dinner with my dogs inside.

    Cocktails served here?

    No cocktails. Beer and wine on tap.

    These guys were very nice and responded right away over text when I had questions!…read more I had the shrimp & grits and the seafood gumbo. The flavor of the food was packed with delicious herbs and spices. Truly a supernova of delicious authentic soul taste. If it were just that, it'd be an easy 5 stars; however, onto the negatives: 1. The shrimp & grits were pretty skimpy on the grits (altho tons of shrimp and delicious sausage in the seafood gumbo. HIGHLY recommend that one) 2. The prices are a bit high, in the $20-$40 range. However, I understand that delivery companies do take a big portion 3. The grubhub page said "not currently accepting orders" while the Uber eats one was accepting them. I asked the owner over text and she said she'd try to fix the grubhub website (I wanted to use grubhub over Uber eats cuz I had a $5 off grubhub coupon). It still wasn't fixed after 15-30 mins so we just gave up and ordered on Uber Eats since we were hungry. Would've been nice to know how long it might take to get it fixed; I was assuming it'd be a quick setting change Note that these guys are delivery/pickup only via Uber Eats or Grubhub and you have to just wait and show up at their house when it's ready. Didn't have to wait long after the estimated finish time to see the sous chef walk out and hand me the order. +1 for great instructions on where to meet them

I got excited upon finding this local food business And even more when I was told they have "Jerk chicken" Typically on their menu you can find Jerk pork, jerk chicken and some veggie options Meals are fixed with rice and peas, plantains and cabbage They do tacos too Jerk chicken: Authentic jerk chicken is done on the grill.. A somewhat smoker contraption This is typical in Jamaican restaurants It's spiced heavily so that even off the grill it's ready to be consumed But the majority of places have an additional liquid jerk sauce made from scratch. Scotch bonnet peppers are known to take center stage in the sauce and also in the dry rub for the grilling Fish, tofu, pork, all kinds of meats are done in this style and fashion So now that you know a little on history.. Let's go into the present Some people do jerk chicken in the oven or a combo of the latter with oven.. Kool Runninz is one of them... The spices were there... Friendly enough for the masses of Santa Barbara ( traditional stylee can be unforgivably hot) The chicken I thought was just ok The rice and beans ( in West Indian culture it's called rice and peas) Was good...It's standard to have notes of coconut from coconut milk in the rice along with thyme and possibly peppers The coconut was detectable and I'm a big fan Not a fan of cabbage so I went for extra rice ( shout out to my carb lovers out there) The plantains...ah em... I said the plantains... Wow, I've eaten plantains in different styles Look Runniz is easily in the top 3 of all time.. Crisp edges, chewy ( just enough) inside.. With great texture... Overall I thought they delivered a delicious alternative To my everyday Santa Barbara experience And I'm glad I came across them

When we got to her counter, she seemed annoyed and said that the Amber Beer we wanted wasn't served at her bar and we had to go to the smaller one down the walkway (the Amber was on her menu board, by the way). We got to the smaller bar where the smart guy was and he said he could get us the drink but needed to go to the larger bar we just came from because that's where the tap is. We told him what the woman said and he just shook his head and apologized. This adventure alone took a good 25 minutes. Next up, the food. We saw a sausage combo plate that a young female waitress was carrying and asked if they were different sausages, her reply was "No, All three are the same". We asked the only bartender we could trust and he said they were all different and described in detail what they were a the flavor profile. I thought the ambiance was nice and Danish but the beer and the combo plate was just ok. The owners need to do some remedial training with the staff and teach them how to not only speak with customers but to know what they are serving and where to get it.
