- EEmilySan Francisco Bay Area •1 review5.0Dined 6 days agoThe experience was exactly whay we hoped for and then some. We asked to be seated near a heater since they only had outdoor seating left (late November) and this request was met! I’m told they also have blankets if the heater isn’t enough for you. The waiter was extremely accommodating and happily answered ~10 questions for us about the menu before we actually ordered. The food is wonderful as is the service. The free valet is a great perk as well, especially during busy season. All around great experience.More infoOKUPrice: Expensive• Asian• Santa Barbara•4.7
- EEricaCalifornia Central Coast •1 review5.0Dined 6 days agoPer usual the food and service was incredible! Our reservation was at 5:30 but the hostess Selena was kind enough to get us sat a bit earlier. Our steaks and burgers (we ate on a Wed night when they have burger night) were cooked to the perfect temperature.More infoHitching Post IIPrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Buellton•4.7
