It was raining this morning and the place was still packed. You can see that this place is a local favorite. My group also ordered sunshine eggs that came with a short stack and added French toast. Very good portions to share with 3-4 people and very delicious. Definitely would recommend coming here if you're craving a hearty and tasty breakfast.

The Hash Browns were exceptionally crispy, Biscuit to dry for. The Eggs were perfectly poached. I would like to have had less breading, and more seasoning on the meat. The Breading could be more seasoned too. Overall, a wonderful place, great service, very nice decor. I will just order my next one accordingly.

We had such a wonderful evening at the Hitching. A huge thank you to Bill, the owner, for creating…read moresuch a special concept and giving us such a memorable experience. Madi took great care of us from the moment we arrived. She made sure we had a great table and went out of her way to make our evening special. Lupe was an amazing server. She was attentive, friendly, and made sure everything came out quickly and perfectly. The steaks were absolutely delicious and had that incredible oak-fire flavor that makes the Hitching Post so unique. We started with the Portuguese sausage that was amazing. The meal came with delicious garlic bread, a fresh salad, shrimp cocktail, and a side. We especially enjoyed the baked potato. And then, to finish everything off, they brought out an old-school scoop of ice cream with chocolate syrup. Such a fun and nostalgic touch! Everything was delicious, the atmosphere was so much fun, and the entire experience was truly special. We had an amazing time and would highly recommend the Hitching Post to anyone looking for a great meal and a memorable evening.

After a weekend of wine tasting in Paso Robles, my wife and I made a special trip and spent the…read morenight in Santa Maria specifically so we could finally try the Hitching Post. We had heard great things, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. We dined with our two kids, and everyone left happy. My wife and I shared the large ribeye for two, which was cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. The meal included four courses, and every part of it was excellent. For our appetizer, we ordered the artichoke, and it immediately brought back memories of my mom making artichokes when I was growing up. It was simple, delicious, and a great way to start the meal. Our kids both ordered the steak kids' meal, and we were impressed by the quality. It's not often you find a restaurant that serves a kids' steak meal that is genuinely delicious, but they both loved it and cleaned their plates. The salads were fresh, the sides were great, and dessert was the perfect ending to a fantastic meal. What stood out most was the value. Considering the quality of the food and everything that was included, we felt the meal was very reasonably priced. The service was spot on throughout the evening--friendly, attentive, and welcoming without being intrusive. If you're visiting the Central Coast, whether you're staying in Santa Maria or exploring Paso Robles wine country, the Hitching Post is absolutely worth the trip. We're very glad we made the effort to visit and are already looking forward to coming back.

I loved the different sauces, but the Mo's sauce was by far my favorite. The kids chicken strips came with a lot of fries. The pulled pork came with the Mo's sauce and coleslaw and was very tasty. The potato salad was not the state behind as flavorful as the other sides including the baked beans. This is a great stop in a town where you will be eating clam chowder and fish most of the time!

Got take out here and ordered online…read more I got the bbq chicken and beef combo. It came with a side of macaroni salad and rice. The salad was solid, but I wasn't a huge fan of the chicken. It was a little dry, but they gave the sauce on side so that helped. I'm used to more tangy and sweet teriyaki sauce their sauce didn't really seem like teriyaki based; more savory and sour if anything. The beef was good! Super tender. Overall it was a solid lunch for the price, but not my favorite Hawaiian bbq dish I've had. The staff was nice. There is seating inside as well. I just got takeout.

Sauce came on the side - didn't really remind me of a teriyaki sauce it's more tangy and soy sauce tasting or I guess like a watery A1. Tried all meats without the sauce chicken was cooked well, not dry at all. The beef had a weird after taste. Short rib was good, nothing was overcooked. Wish the meat was topped over cabbage like other Hawaiian spots instead of a lettuce salad ( which of course I didn't eat) Mac salad had a good mayo to macaroni ratio but didn't taste like anything it was extremely bland. Musubi - wish the spam was a bit thicker but the rice ratio was good, rice was cooked to perfection. Spam wasn't cooked in sauce nor was there sauce in-between the rice and spam. Missing the sauce - so I tried it with the sauce I mentioned above but not a fan of the sauce so didn't like it together.

It can be a little pricey, but it is consistently a great experience overall. Just a heads up: the location and parking lot gets packed, so be prepared to drive around and wait a bit for a table. On the bright side, the kitchen speed is insane our food took under five minutes to come out. Both the tri tip sandwich and the pulled pork sandwich are solid hits, and the fries are absolute perfection.
