Hitching Post Ii - Buellton

The lunch is served over the parking lot on the winery instead of in the steakhouse itself. the two vegetarian options include an beyond burger and a Portobello sandwich I chose and was delicious. there were also free broccoli stole. the service was amazing and the view of the valley and the straußland was beautiful.

We had made a reservation for a table, but the service at the bar was so exceptional that we decided to stay there instead. My filet was cooked to perfection! The artichoke cup was fantastic, and the strawberry shortcake was the best I’ve ever tasted.

Celebrated a friend's birthday here and the food was absolutely delicious. Appetizer was wonderfully combined: roasted pepper with shrimp and goat cheese, served with (spicy) corn salsa. I had the chicken and it was so tender, juicy and perfectly seasoned. Served with many sides (salad, garlic bread, and I chose baked potato), I couldn't finish my plate. While I wouldn't make more than a 30 minute trip to eat here again, I would DEFINITELY visit again when I'm in the area. Sidenote: make reservations on the weekend! They book up quick!

I 'm sorry, but for this kind of money I 'm not eating dinner in a tent with zero view, in a parking lot, with port-o-let bathrooms. Even though they 're nice port-o-lets. Although service was perky and attentive, they couldn 't make up for the poor food and absence of ambiance. Let 's start with the bare bones small table in an oil stained parking lot slot, with the Waffle House hand written table number on a stand, and no salt or pepper (had to ask for it). The grilled Texas quail appetizer was tasty but tiny, and the the clam chowder was very light but a bit bland. My garden salad was basically lettuce and dressing, no tomatoes, no onions, and a few carrot chards. On a high note, the pork chop was very good and the accompanying Wild Turkey sweet potatoes were excellent. But my prime top sirloin was inedible. After a few chew and spit repetitions I called the server and he brought me a better cut. And take a look at that fancy steak and potato presentation. But it was too late and my appetite was being satisfied by some cold draft Firestone DBAs instead. We have had good food here a couple years ago but this was an expensive disappoinment.

1. I thoroughly enjoyed her savory salad. It was fresh and delicious, and even though they already offered a mixed salad, this one stood out. 2. The steak and duck combo was exceptional—it's not often you find a place that serves both meats together. The steak was juicy and of top-notch quality. Plus, I appreciated the open kitchen concept, which allowed us to watch the chefs expertly cook the steaks. 3. The steak sauce is outstanding! The mandarin or orange-infused sauce complemented the steak and duck perfectly. It didn't make me feel overwhelmed by the meat, and I found it so enjoyable that I could have easily gone for a second helping.
