    This was my first Michelin-star restaurant, and it definitely lived up to the experience. The ambiance was beautiful, with both outdoor and indoor seating options. We chose to sit outside although the inside felt cozy, intimate, and perfect for a date night. Our server was a bit serious, but still very attentive and kind. We came for brunch, and everything was packed with flavor. The kids' bolognese pasta was absolutely incredible. we ended up eating most of it before our own dishes even arrived. Every plate was delicious, and honestly, I wish I had saved room for dessert.

    You stopped at this place to get some lunch. They had seating inside and out which caught our eye. We ended up sitting inside. Our waitress was very friendly and made the experience much more enjoyable. The menu was good and I had a chicken sandwich. I would like to go back to this place and explore more of the menu. It's right downtown and surrounded by shopping and decadent pastry shops.

    Love Coast Range. I've been several times for brunch with my wife. We went this time around for our one year wedding anniversary. I always get the breakfast crunchwrap, but I decided to go with the pork belly sandwich. So delectable, and I'm glad I tried the potato cake. Shrimp appetizer was very good, and my wife enjoyed the eggs benedict. Definitely have to try a donut if you want dessert. Always really nice servers and hosts. Must stop if you're in Solvang.

    Wow steak Crunchwrap with eggs for brunch?! Say no more!! This was definitely needed before our long 5 hours drive home! It was delicious and we ate every bite. Planned to go to Brekkies but the line was too long, no line here and we have no idea why because the menu and food were amazing! We felt lucky to have found it amongst the crowd!

    We were warmly greeted and promptly seated in a cozy booth. There is a delightful charm to the decor. Clearly the executive chef favors a menu with a few items done really well than offering a litany of entrees do satisfactory. Our server was wonderful, making certain we enjoyed our meal. Started with a mimosa and Bloody Mary. The BM was the better of the two. We chose eggs Benedict which were fantastic. Rich, creamy and simply uncious with a balanced profile including a bit of salt...probably from the ham. We weren't rushed through our meal which was perfect for a Sunday. Cheers!

    Martini time!

    Was literally daydreaming about this place and realized I never made a review! We went back in May (of last year), but it bums me out all the same to see the disparity of ratings. We had a 5-star service and the food was exceptional. Our server was so accommodating / helpful and sure, they were busy, but I was within good company and the weather was wonderful. I am planning a trip back to Solvang just to return to this restaurant!

    Cod and side of asparagus

    I was really looking forward to eating here based on good reviews and Michelin star rating. It was a total let down. First, I want to say service was great. The rating is for the food. We ordered half a dozen oysters and the potato pierogies as our starters. I know oysters come in all sizes, but to be charging $32 for the oysters we were served is crazy. We order oysters often and have never seen oysters as small as the ones we were served. Didn't ask where they were from, and didn't get a picture, but you probably wouldn't be able to see them in the photo anyway because they were so tiny. The pierogies tasted like they came frozen and were reheated in the microwave. For our main dish, we ordered the cod and a side of asparagus. The asparagus was tasty, so you could say that was the best thing we ordered. The cod was tasteless and the sides it was served on (no idea what all was on the plate) were hard and cold. They also only offer gender neutral bathrooms which require cleaning on a regular basis throughout the night and that clearly wasn't happening. They were disgusting. Not what I would expect from a restaurant with their prices. I would not recommend this restaurant. This meal was not worth the $200 we spent. We had better fish and chips at Fitzpatrick's Tavern down the street. Try them and save yourself $150.

    Donuts with Brown Butter Glaze.  These will change your life!  You'll never look at donuts the same way again!

    Coast Range - Where Michelin-Star fine-dining type meals meet a casual vibe! When my friend and I first walked in, we were enthusiastically greeted by the Hostess who was at the front desk that proudly had the Michelin Stars on display. We had a reservation, since it was a Friday night, and I was shocked that this place wasn't completely packed with people (they DO have a nice patio, and there were a lot of people out there). The vibe and decor is what I would describe as "Classy Western". Sort of Wild West, but a bit more upscale than traditional western-style restaurants. Ciana was our server, and could not have been any more delightful! She took great care of us. And as an added bonus, she was able to tell us not only about the menu items, but could also recommend certain wines to pair with them. We could tell she wasn't just throwing suggestions out there; she knew her stuff! By the way - the wine list in incredible (quite extensive with key regions and varietals represented)! My friend and I both had the Chicken Cordon Bleu, which came with a small "pot" of some of the most incredible mashed potatoes I have ever had. The entree was just melt-in-your-mouth fantastic, and the sauce just tied everything together so well. Perfect balance of chicken, breading, cheese, and ham. For dessert, my friend got the donuts (two generous-sized, by the way, so this could easily be shared), which are dipped in a brown-butter glaze that will change your life! I opted for the apple tart, which was fantastic (and could be shared, but is also proportionate for one person). This is Michelin-Star dining at what I would consider to be a reasonable price; especially for the quality of food and service we received. This will be a definite spot I will return to each and every time I am in Solvang.

    Super cute place with great food. It's a Michelin recommended so we had to check it out. We ordered a few things to share. The spinach pop tart was huge and tasty. The bone marrow was delightful. The beef stroganoff was so good!!

    Brussels Sprouts were so good. Our server recommended it.

    We went to Coast Range for Valentine's Day dinner with my family -- and even our dog! I was honestly surprised (in the best way) that a Michelin Guide restaurant would be so welcoming and allow us to bring our dog. That level of hospitality really stood out. The food was amazing from start to finish. The Tomahawk steak was cooked perfectly and full of flavor, the Brussels sprouts were delicious, and the tuna crudo was incredibly fresh and beautifully prepared. Every dish impressed us. The service was very attentive and made the whole experience even better. We'll definitely be back. Highly recommend!

    I visited Coast Range during a last-minute Valentine's Day trip to Solvang. After reading the glowing reviews and knowing the restaurant holds a Michelin star, I expected an elevated dining experience--not just in food, but in service. Unfortunately, the service fell far short of a Michelin star standard. Upon arrival, I approached the male host to ask if they were accepting walk-ins. Without making eye contact, he abruptly told me that only bar seating was available. I thanked him, and he responded with a dismissive "uh huh." Not exactly a warm welcome. We proceeded to the bar around 5:30 p.m., roughly 30 minutes after opening. The bar area is small, seating about 14 guests, and it was full with two bartenders working. After sitting for five minutes, no one greeted us. One member of my party eventually had to walk up to a bartender to request menus. She told us she would bring drink menus shortly and gave us the food menu. After reviewing the food menu, we waited another five minutes--still no water, no check-in, no acknowledgment. I made eye contact with the second male bartender, who simply stared back without saying a word. We continued waiting while watching other guests receive attentive service, drinks, and food. Eventually, we approached the same lady bartender again to ask if we could order. Her response was, "You're ready?"--which was surprising given that she had previously said she would come to us. During the time we were waiting, I observed her making drinks, chatting with other guests, and even taking a moment to use her phone to adjust the bar's music when it went quiet. Yet we remained unacknowledged in the corner. When she finally came over to take our order, there was no apology for the delay, no introduction, and no thank you for waiting. Basic courtesies that are expected at any restaurant--especially one with a Michelin distinction--were absent. Our food eventually arrived, and only then were we brought water. By that point, we were simply ready to eat and leave. While waiting for the check, a new party of two sat at the bar, and I watched as the same lady bartender warmly greeted them and promptly offered menus. The contrast in service was difficult to ignore. Even if we did not have a reservation, we were still paying customers and expected to be treated with professionalism and courtesy. The host was simultaneously seating guests on the patio, which made the initial dismissal even more confusing given that reviews describe the restaurant as accommodating to walk-ins with a wait. I rarely write reviews unless the experience is exceptional--either positively or negatively. While the food was decent, I struggle to understand the Michelin recognition based on this visit. Service is a fundamental part of fine dining, and unfortunately, this experience put a damper on what was meant to be a special evening. Regrettably, I will not be returning or recommending this restaurant.

    This is higher than 4 but not quite 5. Yelp needs to allow partial stars! Cute little place on the main drag. We didn't have a reservation so they couldn't seat us inside but gave us a spot outside and turned on the heaters since it was drizzly. Our server was very nice and accommodating. We have a gluten free kid and she was able to check with chef and get something that worked. Overall great food presentation. Flavors were yummy but not mind blowing. Except the puddling which was more cake like than pudding-y but it was SO good. Worth the drive back up for that alone. I went inside for drinks and the bartender was fab. He had a nice pour, super quick for service and flirty enough for a good tip! . If we didn't hav a bunch of kids the bar would have been a great spot. Will be happy to come again on our next trip to solvang

    Came to the bar with a big group which totally threw off the staff. The drinks were fine, Just know that there's craft drinks, but you need to give the staff a lot of patience.

    See all
