First of all, the service was great. Our server was attentive and checked on us multiple times. The…read morebiggest problem for me was the mediocre food for the price. I do like that they had some options for gluten free, you can lettuce wrap most sandwiches and burgers. The food wasn't terrible either, but if I'm paying $18 for a burger and side salad I want it to be great. The seltzers were good though and I think worth the $8 price tag you see at most local breweries. The real kicker was the $3 charge for using a credit card that I didn't see posted anywhere (I could've missed it to be fair). The patio was nice and you can people watch on the busy street but inside wasn't anything exciting either. Again, our visit wasn't bad but wasn't great.

Walk into the building and smack to the left is the Dang's burger ordering counter. To the right is Sunburst Wine Bar. The bar has a bar counter and chairs. The interior look is modern, unpretentious casual. Bright with lots of natural light. But if you're looking for a TV, they don't have any. The vibe is chill, unpretentious, welcoming, and family friendly. Family friendly bar?!? No, kids aren't allowed at the counter but are allowed on the outside patio and well as leashed dogs. The patio seating is tables and bench seating. The bar menu has draft beers, local wines. and canned drinks. They have flights. While partaking in a drink at the bar, you can even eat your Dang's food at the bar as well. The bartender was a sweetheart. Engaging with a great attitude. And may I add, she isn't a wimp. When there were no customers at the bar, she was stacking and moving drink boxes. Getting business done.

The space felt polished but comfortable, perfect for enjoying a game or a casual drink. I'd give it a strong 4 stars; adding a signature element or more standout bites could push it to 5. Would I come back? Definitely.

A very mixed review. I ordered the Jessy's Salad with added chicken and absolutely loved the food!…read moreMy qualm wasn't with the food at all, but rather with the experience around the service. We ordered our meal to-go, and when we got home, I noticed that the chicken had been left off the salad. Since we had specifically paid extra for it, we drove all the way back to have it corrected. I completely understand that mistakes happen, and I really appreciated that they fixed the missing chicken. That said, I was a little disappointed that there wasn't any effort to make up for the inconvenience of having to drive back. In situations like this, I feel that a small gesture to "right the wrong" can go a long way in making a customer feel valued. We were told they weren't allowed to comp any portion of the meal, which was unfortunate. Again, the food itself was delicious, and I would happily recommend the salad. I just hope they can improve how situations like this are handled in the future, because good hospitality can make such a difference.

I gave it to him and he immediately insisted it was fake. When I told him it wasn't, and to scan it he pretended to scan it, then insisted it was fake and didn't scan (mind you I scan my id to get wine at target like once a month and there's no problem). This is blatant age discrimination and I highly recommend that if you are 21-29 to not even bother buying alcohol here just go to Smart & Final.

Tasting Flights: $25 (waived with a 2-bottle purchase). Beer tasting flight: $20…read more This was only our second visit to Rincon Mountain's tasting room, but the experience was just as wonderful as the first time. This is a family owned/operated wine and beer tasting room located in Carpinteria, with their vineyards located on nearby Rincon Mountain and in Paso Robles. Cool vibe entry area, with a large, garage-like back room and outdoor tasting areas. Parking available both on street and in a private lot in back. WINES: We were fortunate to have Jill, co-owner with her husband Edward, pour for us and the service was excellent. We tried 5 wines from the tasting menu, a '22 Storytime Rosè, '22 Susie Q (white Rhone blend), 2020 Dusty Vinyl (Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre red blend), '19 Tempranillo, and a '19 Monk (Bordeaux red blend). In addition, Jill also poured us a '22 Syrah. Again, all the wines were well-made and flavorful. We took advantage of the waived tasting fee and took several bottles home with us. You can also purchase wines by the glass or enjoy a bottle onsite. BEER: New since our last visit, Jill and Edward decided to brew beer, so we also decided to share a tasting. All ingredients are grown on their property and they're currently pouring a Lu Lu Lager, a Monk's Ration (Belgian Ale), and a Sal's Stout. The pours are generous and easily enough for two people to share a tasting. We're not huge beer fans, but these, especially the lager and the ale, were so refreshing and full of flavor. They're sold in 750ml bottles, and we took a couple of these home as well. I highly recommend a visit to Rincon Mountain Winery's tasting room. You won't be disappointed!

Their prices are comparable to other stores in the area and selection sometimes even better. They have a private parking lot and are located just a few minutes away from Santa Claus Beach.

They also have meats to cook at home and all general food, beverage and emergency items. Great one stop shop for RV vacationers and campers. I definitely recommend!

Our 2nd year coming up from Los Angeles…read more Some people take the Amtrak Surfliner as it drops off very close -- but we did the 80min drive as we stayed over for the night and made a weekend out of it. So many options for beer and since it's right next to the beach on a large grass field, it's cooler than you'd think even in the summer. They don't advertise it but it's doggie friendly too! Also, you can bring beach chairs in and find a spot (if you get here early enough) under one of their shady trees. They have about 5-6 food trucks as well as vendors selling beef jerky, popcorn, and vintage clothes. Large stage with a mix of live music and DJ's. (Reggae band was our favorite in 2025). Lines were pretty short all day -- so they really did everything right and we'll certainly be back next year!
