Restaurants near Santa Ynez Valley Marriott

The food at Leonardo's was great, as in past visits. The tortellini and the osso buco were standouts. The restaurant was packed, and we had to wait a long time (about 30 minutes) past our 7 pm reservation to be seated. The staff did their best, but the customers inside were not leaving. The front of house hostess said she'd comp us dessert, a kind gesture. However, after initially attentive service from our waiter, who took our orders promptly and brought out the food quickly, he seemed to lose focus -- perhaps he was too busy or too tired as the restaurant's patrons started to leave. After our meal, we had to flag him down to order dessert; and that took so long to arrive that we ended up having to cancel it and leave, as one of our party felt ill. I will go back, but will make sure either to plan to get to the restaurant not later than 6 pm or after 8:30 pm.

Favorite steak place in all of CA if not the entire country! Thank you Hitching Post!

We went to Chumash Resort Casino so see and show and had dinner at the Willows prior. Everything was wonderful. We had the pre-show pre-fix menu and it was delicious. My filet was cooked beautifully. Our server Mary Lynn was incredibly personable, professional and attentive. Overall a great expereince.

Lovely new restaurant in Solvang. Interesting menu with "Asian fusion" mixes of local ingredients with some Asian influence. Creative and a bit complex...not a steak and potatoes kinda place! But a fun exploration of flavors and textures, with great service and very nice ambiance.

The food here was really good. The music was amazing… they had a Vicente playlist going. I noticed they had a ton of bottles of Fortaleza tequila on the wall. If you’re looking for that tequila… this is the place to go.
