The dark and moody color scheme indoors and out are very welcoming. We sat inside and ordered 2 appetizers and 1 entree for the two of us. Service was attentive yet unobtrusive. We had the tuna nicoise, the cauliflour/hummus, and the salmon with coriander -- all beautifully presented and wonderful flavors; it was clearly obvious that the very best ingredients are used and we were delighted with dinner -- my mother approves!

A Culinary Masterclass in the Heart of Solvang” Skip the tired steakhouse hype down the road and treat yourself to The Gathering Table — an absolute gem where every dish is a work of art and every bite tells a story. From the moment you walk in, you feel the elevated calm. The ambiance is sophisticated without trying too hard — chic, moody lighting, tasteful décor, and a welcoming staff that knows their menu like a script from a Michelin stage. Now let’s talk food: • The Miso Soup? Umami perfection. Silky, deeply flavored — the kind of start that makes you cancel your other plans. • Thai Chicken Wings? Crispy, sticky, layered with sweet heat and bright citrus — finger-licking, chopstick-fighting good. • Japanese Tempura Halibut? Light as air, flaky as a dream, and served with dipping sauces that sing. • Japanese Ribeye? A tender, marinated triumph — seared with precision and melt-in-your-mouth fabulous. This is not your average hotel restaurant — this is chef-driven excellence. Think Nobu-meets-Santa Ynez Valley with soul. If you care about flavor, finesse, and vibe — this is where you dine.

We came her when they first opened last year and so happy we came back again with our friends who loved it as much as we did. Chef came over to say hi, which is always a treat. He is so kind as well as all of the staff. Don’t hesitate. Make a res and enjoy some amazing food and drinks. See you next time we are in town!

Delicious spot, really creative and wonderful menu. Chef and his son came by to say hello and were delightful. Loved my snap pea cocktail and all the apps and my seared tuna nicoise. Thanks so much!
