WE HAVE NOT BEEN DISSAPOINTED IN ALL OF OUR VISITS.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMGem in Los OlivosThere is much to say for restaurants that have a small menu that seasonal changes in that they can control every dish quality that goes out to it's guests. The food was simple yet exquisitely prepared to order. Loved the fact that albeit we weren't VIP guests, had a special occasion, or whatnot..the owner and his staff made a crucial link in making it's guests feel well attended yet not over burdened or tending awkward service....my compliments to them as restauranteurs !! This is a must stop in Los Olivos or even a destination eatery..! Will certainly be back....4/21/2013 12:00:00 AMFine Dining in SY ValleyEverything about the dining experience was fantastic. Food was presented and cooked perfectly and tasted great. Ordered the Roasted Pork Chop and the Prime Top Sirloin. The pork chop might have been the best I've ever had; just slightly pink, moist, flavorful, and the apple-Davy Brown sauce was killer. The Sirloin was fork-tender and delicious. Excellent desserts capped off a great meal. Service was attentive and knowledgeable. A great night - will definitely be back.4/21/2013 12:00:00 AMThis was our first time toThis was our first time to eat at a brother's restaurant.

Food was amazing, we will recommend "Sides Hardware & Shoes" to our friends. David & Limda3/26/2013 12:00:00 AMSome of the best food we have hadThis is a charming restaurant with great food.
We started with burrata salad which had the unusual and great apricot compote with the cheese and brioche. My wife had the top sirloin. The quality of the steak was excellent and it was cooked perfectly. I had the pork rib chop. Again the meat was great and cooked well. What made the dish was a sauce that enhanced the flavor of the meat and the mashed potatoes.
One criticism is the vegatbles could be cooked a little more for my taste. The quality and style of cooking are very good but a little too al dente. It didn't keep me from finishing them.
We enjoyed a pineapple upside down cake that was amazing with hot buttered rum sauce.
We are anxious to go back and try other di3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMA pure gemThis is the way food should be made and served. These guys really know how to cook. My husband and I both had the special of the evening the grouper with chorizo which was excellent. The flavours were wonderful. We also had the salads for starters which were so nice and fresh tasting with just a light yogurt vinaigrette. We were so impressed with this restaurant that we booked there again the next night. This time we again had the same salad as starters but my husband opted for the thick cut pork chop which he enjoyed and I had the bolognaise with pasta that was excellent.
Service was excellent. Fantastic food. We will be back the next time we come to Los Olivos.3/20/2013 12:00:00 AMOur server was awesome. TheOur server was awesome.
