The service is wonderful and the food is really outstanding. It’s very easy to want to go back multiple times while traveling to eat there. A Solvang favorite!

Had a fun evening with a group of 6. Only downside was that the drinks seemed a bit watered down.

Great food and drinks. We went for happy hour so we tried more shareables than we normal would have. Dirty brisket fries were amazing. We also had the cornbread and wings, which were both top notch. The prime tips were the absolute best. We sat on the patio and Tina took care of us. Great food, great staff, great venue.

Great food and service, but a bit pricey, so I recommend coming during happy hours for half off appetizers and discounts on cocktails.
