    Incredible tempura asparagus with two dips: wasabi and ponzu. What's good about it? Comes with the BEST onion rings -light batter, crispy, fresh goodness. Doc and I had 2 different pizzas, hubs had a brisket with cole slaw. We had lemonade ice tea, peach ice tea and a tall bottle of sparkling water. Ordering and table staff are fast efficient, remove used plates quickly. Side room has a water station where you can get your own take out pizza or 2 sizes of left over boxes, napkins, table settings, and more. Very glad Doc researched and suggested this restaurant. One of the few pet friendly places grandpup could lie comfortably in AC on clean floor. Doc ordered her slices of turkey for her lunch.

    4.5 stars. We stopped here from seeing many locals recommend it on Reddit. Their menu is very much based on locally sourced fresh ingredients. The staff was very nice and the ambiance was lively and loud. They have bench style long seating and it has a brewery atmosphere. I ordered one of their pizzas which was very tasty (fennel sausage, tomato, mozzarella, and basil). Kids tried their burger and fries which were customized. And hubby got their oyster po'boy which was very much enjoyed. I also tried a glass of rosé and a glass of their Lambrusco. The waitress was super nice in adding some fries to our order at no charge due to the busyness of the place. I would definitely recommend this place and visit again.

    The food here is super tasty and quite unique from what you can get elsewhere. I love their variety of pizzas and side dishes, it's easy to order at the counter and get a bunch of variety to share. Definitely not the cheapest but the quality is there. I'd recommend trying it out if you're with a larger group in the area!

    This place has been on my radar since I lived in So Cal roughly 6-8 years ago. I gotta tell you it was totally worth the wait. It turns out they've even expanded. We shared a few personal size pizzas a bahn mi and Brussels sprouts and everything was on point. Friendly staff and plenty of area to sit. Great food worth the stop anytime.

    The best meal we had in the Solvang area. It was suggested I order the Caesar Salad, which I loved. Also ordered the Tempura Asparagus and Onions with miso and ponzu sauces, as well as the Mushroom Soup with Gruyère Grilled Cheese. Loved everything. Paired with local wines, this was a perfect meal. I'm normally not a fan of food halls, but this super exceeded expectations and not only was the food. Incredible but the ambience in the space was amazing. Everything is made to order and you can tell the difference. You may have to wait for a bit, but it's worth it because you know that it's fresh and literally started after the order was put in versus being prepped for hours before. Highly recommend.

    We were looking for a nice casual spot to grab a quick and easy lunch and fortunately came across Industrial Eats in Buellton. What a fantastic find! We walked in and immediately got in line to order while we watched the crew working hard behind the counter. Everything on the tables from the other patrons looked and smelled so good we instantly knew we were in for a great experience! The portions aren't overly large but they're just right for anyone with a good appetite! We asked for some suggestions when we ordered and we weren't steered wrong! We ordered a BBQ brisket sandwich and petite filet, spinach, mushroom, mash, demi glace. It was all soooooo gooooood that we practically licked our plates! We also got some beer and wine to go with our meals and were very happy with our recommendations too (Kaena Syrah and Hook Line and Drinker Hazy IPA). Since the menu appears to change from time to time, it'll be interesting to see what they have available the next time we come in. Glad we have one more reason (excuse) to come back to Solvang and Buellton area! I hope you come in to experience the goodness that Industrial Eats has to offer too!

    Looked around for something interesting to eat up in the Central Coast and met my cousin here for lunch. This is a little find! The owner took order. The food was wonderful. The service was very good and looking over-the-counter at other things being prepared... Oh my gosh, the sandwiches.!! Everything was fresh and good! great seating and a wonderful afternoon.

    Hummus and beets

    Amazing food and done fast. Fresh delish and very busy all the time! They have many options that change every day and was a wonderful experience. Highly recommend for lunch!

    Miso cod was seriously a 10/10!

    Food was AMAZING and came very quickly. The people working there are nice and very smiley and friendly. Theres great music playing and the vibe is just great. Overall 10/10!!

    Came here twice during a trip to the Central Coast, and this place is a gem in Buellton. The layout of Industrial Eats is pretty simple, just line up to order at the front of the counter, get a number, and find an open spot. They deliver the food to your table once ready. In the both times I went, I got the Beets and Hummus with chips, the Miso Cod with avocado, and the beef tongue pastrami Reuben. All the dishes I tried here were delicious and the quality was fresh, with my favorite being the pastrami Reuben. The pastrami was very tender and not overly salty, and really liked how complimentary the horseradish was with the pastrami. My only complaint is how overwhelming the menu can be just reading it when ordering at the front. There was one guy in front of me that felt stressed out about what to order. The service here was pretty nice. I would visit here again to try their pizza.

    Vegan pizza with mushrooms, chard, and onions.
    Krissy W.

    4.5. They had a few vegan choices. The pizza was flavorful with plenty of toppings. The service was friendly and knowledgeable. The -.5 stars is because on the chilly night they kept the door open. Otherwise - excellent. Highly recommend.

    Beef Tongue Pastrami Rueben
    Carlo G.

    I was looking for a quick and casual dinner in the Buellton area and I'm glad Yelp recommended me this spot! I ordered the Beef Tongue Pastrami Rueben and it was delicious! The sandwich was meaty and had great textures. The bread was crispy and buttery, the beef tongue was juicy and flavorful, the cheese and sauce was creamy and rich, and the sauerkraut was crunchy and tangy. All of these components combined made a tasty sandwich. I also liked how it came with a lettuce salad which provided a nice freshness to cut the richness of the sandwich. For around $20, this was a good value. You could even save the other half of the sandwich for another meal since it was very filling. Walking-in the interior was very social as you sit at shared tables with other people. The service was okay, but I wasn't the biggest fan of the cashier giving me some attitude when I asked what she'd recommend from the menu. Also, I asked for my order to-go, but they ended up just serving my order on a plate in-house. I didn't feel like asking again for my order to-go, so I ended up eating at the restaurant. I would recommend paying more attention to the customer's order in the future. They also have a parking lot in front and a self-serve water station. Overall, a good experience here. I would just recommend working on delivering a better customer experience.

    Are they still dog friendly in 2024? All of the previous answers are 5-7 years old, and they seem to no longer have outdoor tables.

    When I visited in early November 2024, dog friendly!

    Does this have outdoor seating?

    They do, but it's a small outdoor space with a couple of tables that go fast.

    Do they take reservations?

    Not that I know of. But I highly recommend stopping at this place. I went there twice and have never had a long wait

    Is this place Dog friendly? Maybe on the patio?

    Yes and you can even bring dogs inside. At least when I was there, the guy at cashier told me I can bring dogs inside. I was gonna sit patio but I had dinner with my dogs inside.

    Cocktails served here?

    No cocktails. Beer and wine on tap.

    My family and I stopped at your restaurant on our way home to Lompoc because the menu and website…read morephotos looked great. We ordered the chicken picatta and sole picatta to-go, tipped despite not dining in, and drove 20 miles home. When we opened the boxes, both orders were incorrect. According to the board menu, the sole picatta comes with arugula, beets, pistachios, and potatoes (no capers), and the chicken picatta comes with capers, spinach, and potatoes. Instead, both dishes came with pasta and none of the listed sides. More concerning, the sole had capers--even though we specifically asked when ordering because my partner is allergic and were told it does not include them. Meanwhile, the chicken picatta, which should have had capers, had none. Portions were also quite small for the $22 price point. We tried calling the restaurant eight times with no answer. After contacting the liquor store it's located inside, we were told to call back in five minutes. When we did, the call wouldn't even go through. Since we couldn't reach anyone, we drove the 20 miles back to Buellton to request a refund. When I showed the chef the incorrect dishes, he insisted the picatta dishes come with pasta and produced a small, crumpled paper menu from under the counter showing that version. We were never given this menu and ordered solely from the board displayed above. There was no apology and no offer to remake the meals, only a refund when I requested it. The employee who originally helped us acknowledged they "haven't gotten around" to updating the board menu. Other reviews mention similar issues with discrepancies between the board and the paper menu, which suggests this is an ongoing problem. Thankfully, we received a refund and our tip back, but we drove a total of 60 miles and ended up without dinner, eventually eating at Blaze Pizza at 9:45pm after ordering from you at 6:15pm. Despite this disappointing experience, we would be willing to give your restaurant another try if complimentary meal vouchers could be offered. We understand that busy periods can lead to mistakes, but the lack of accountability and apology was the most frustrating part. Acknowledging errors and making things right builds trust. Photos of what was advertised versus what we received are attached. We hope for a better experience in the future; otherwise, we unfortunately will not return.
