This restaurant, "Happy Mediterranean" is located in a remodeled portion of the old convenience store that used to be part of the gas station. MY GOD ! Their food is GREAT, and fairly priced, too. Just a few minutes ago, our family of five finished wolfing down a take out order from HapMed, that cost us only about $70. WELL WORTH IT! Our orders included a half chicken skewer, a half shrimp skewer, and a half beef ribeye skewer. Also got a shawarma bowl (half beef, half gyro, with fries and greek salad) and a gyro mana'ish (beef on flatbread with sauce and fries). I'm mad at myself for not trying this wonderful establishment sooner. And also, I've read some of the 'one star' Yelp reviews here on the webpage and I gots to ask, WTF (What the Fluff)? People get upset because they want a gyro like they always ordered from a dumb pizza shack in Kansas when they were in college 36 years ago? Or they complain about bad service as compared to the table of local Lompocans seated next to them? GROW up people. Rate the food, not your attitude. Try this place (call in an order, charge it, and pick it up for home consumption). You won't regret it. jamesC (elite '26-- in my own mind ;-)

It kept me satiated and energized for my hike afterwards. Overall, a good option for breakfast especially if you're staying at the Hilton Garden Inn in Lompoc.

We drove over from Solvang on state highway 246, which was nice because we got to avoid the rush hour traffic and construction on 101. The round trip is not bad. The service was excellent. Iliana our server was very nice and attentive. We got the chicken and meatball soup and the pan seared salmon. The soup was just ok, not bad, but not super exciting. The salmon was excellent. It is normally served with hollandaise sauce, spinach, and mushroom over mashed potatoes. We subbed the potatoes for more veggies. The veggies were well seasoned, salmon coked well, and sauce was a nice compliment. Their Diet Coke cups were huge. They only have one toilet and someone was in there a super long time when we wanted to leave, so plan wisely if you need to go. We had to hold it all the way home. The lot has adequate parking. The bar is only beer and wine. The restaurant is not super visible coming from the east, so listen to your map app when to turn. We had a good experience and would come back when in the area again. Recommend you give them a try.

Cozy campground store that makes burgers. We had heard these burgers were good, so we had to try them. We agree, they are good! They crisp the bun on the griddle so there is a nice crunch when you bite into it. We added bacon and cheese and got a side order of onion rings to share. The bacon was a nice thick cut and crispy, not soggy. They have other options you can add for an additional cost. The onion rings where too fried that it disintegrated the onion on the inside. They have packs of ranch and ketchup. The one thing we noticed is that all the fixin's were under the patty. Does anyone else do that?! Overall a GOOD burger and good service at the counter. We will be back! read more

Enjoyed our stop here after reading positive reviews on Yelp. The burgers were the best! I had the bacon burger and it was so yummy...hit the spot. A family member had the Santa Barbara Burger, and that was voted best from the people in our group. As far as sides go, the pickle fries were a hit, the regular fries were seasoned well, and in my opinion the onion rings were just okay. My little one had a chocolate shake, and it was really good. Looking forward to eating here again the next time we're in Lompac. read more

This is a great place to eat. I'm here once a month and the food is always great. Their burgers and sandwiches are really good. Great environment and family friendly, great staff and fast service. If you are in Lompoc this is a great spot to visit if you don't know what to eat. If you don't know what to order they always have a daily / weekly special. Lompoc has very few restaurants and this is a great place to grab some food. read more
