Anytime we're in the area we make sure to stop by to grab some good food. All the Pizza's are so good our fave is the Gorgonzola Peach Bacon Pizza and all the side dishes we've tried is so good. This place also has a great vibe while everyone (staff) is so friendly and welcoming that we have made this a MUST stop anytime we're around. I think with everything this place offers that the quality of the food they put out is underrated. As you can tell I love this place! read more

Excellent rating food. They are very creative and imaginative in their food offerings. The ambiance is kind of hipster-rustic but don't let that throw you off as their food is Delicious!! You go up to a counter and order / pay. I like that because that eliminates a potential bad experience with a bad server. Over all just a great place! read more

Phenomenal, fresh, and homegrown. This was my first time eating here and I have to say I'm blown away and inspired by my experience. The staff was more than knowledgable in regards to the menu and even the ingredients. The owner of the establishment was also friendly and eager to observe service which I found refreshing, food handled with care and consideration is the very best! The dinning area was cleanly and as soon and tables were turned over plates wear cleared almost immediately. Their staff worked incredibly swift and timely to serve food and clear tables. My family ordered a pork loin meal, some type of cauliflower curry, and two pizzas. My ONLY critiques would be that the vegetables at this place deserved more love (seasoning). All it took was a side of salt and pepper to bring that cauliflower to perfection. Lastly, one thing I enjoy the most about going out to dinner with my family is actually eating with my family and enjoying our meals at the same time. I do understand you order your food, grab a table and wait with a number but I do believe the experience could be elevated to new heights if the orders per table were expedited all together. I'd rather wait a couple minutes longer just so that everyone else at the table has their plate as well. Besides my tiny baby bones to pick, this place made my day. As an aspiring restauranteur, I felt no passion was lacked and the owner ls presence felt noticed and again, refreshing. We will be back forsure. read more

Industrial eats is a hidden gem in the hills of the 101. If you are ever stranded on the 101 this place is the spot to be stranded at. It is in the small town of buelton which is just 1 street big. I had stopped here a couple of times for lunch. It is quite packed so make sure you are ready to rub elbows with fellow travelers. I would recommend getting the beef tongue pastrami. This sandwich is a show stopper. To the many people who may thing tongue is weird, industrial eats makes it in a way you cannot tell it is tongue. In addition, the tri tip sandwich is really good as well. This sandwich is saucy and meaty for those who are into it. This spot is definitely a spot I look forward to going on my way up north read more

I would like to saw this is one of my best secrets but it's so darn popular that it's best to say it's awesome. I have been coming here for years and it's always great. So now they have picnic tables inside( Covid is over ) that encourage conversation with strangers. By mistake I ordered the beef tongue pastrami Ruben on my last visit and was soo presently surprised. Truth is it will make you a frisky and talkative! read more

Hands down best place we tried in Buellton. Went here on a suggestion from Yelp and I'm so glad we did. There was a long line and its on the pricy side but its worth it. The food is fresh and the menu changes frequently. I got the miso cod (buttery and delicious!) + arugula salad and my boyfriend got the skirt steak pizza. They were all so good. We are already talking about going back to try more items on the menu. My only qualm about the miso cod is that it comes with a side of avocado which was not enough balance for me so I added an arugula salad to my order. The salad was had lemon and parmesan. P.S. This place is dog friendly! read more

I've heard about this place for literally years. We finally tried it and were glad we did. All three of us loved our choices. My miso cod was SO, SO good. I thought about it for a week, or more! My husband had a fried fish sandwich, which he loved as well. Our daughter had a pizza. She liked it but wished she'd tried one of the other interesting choices offered. They have a big selection of dishes. All based on fresh ingredients available. The beer and wine selection was also excellent! The service was good. The counterperson was pleasant and made an excellent wine selection to pair with my cod. The atmosphere was, of course, industrial. Great place for something a little different. read more

Stopped by here as a recommendation from the dude who runs LoFi Wines in Los Alamos. Glad we switched up our food plan because this was an incredible meal. I would recommend driving out of the way to eat here. Although our favorite thing was the noodle special and probs won't be available again. Easy ordering at the counter, self seat, and food came out quick and warm one by one as soon as each was ready read more

Came here to have the Birria taste-wise its a 10/10 !! Amazing and flavorful sauce. Meat is soooo tender and not too much fat. Price wise however, being a Mexican I think it's overpriced but pricing is perfect for the white folk that are not used to eating goat in the central coast and find this a delicacy. I'm sure the avocado had something to do with the pricing also could have came with more tortillas but putting it on Pizza made up for the lack of tortillas. I found my new favorite pizza topping haha. Bravo to the cooks! read more

Industrial Eats is one of my favorite places to stop and eat when I head up north. The Caesar and the white shrimp are our favorite and was delicious as always. The mushroom pizza was overcooked, though. I'm rating Industrial Eats 4 starts because the open communal seating is so annoying with people standing around waiting for others to finish and then running for a table -- it's almost as uncomfortable as the trendy steel chairs barstools that this and every restaurant has these days. The group in front of us took over the only low tables in the place so we had to eat in the car. read more

We went to this restaurant for lunch because we read many of their online restaurant reviews and they had many 5 star so we decided to try it. I am sorry to say that we were disappointed. Maybe they had an off-day as we were surprised that the few different items we had were not as expected. I myself had a few bites and left the rest. I would stay away from the meatballs as the sauce was too pasty and the meatballs were burned. We tried the brisket which was very different in that it was served cubed and we never saw brisket served that way it was a bit fatty but others maybe fine with that. Since we believe in giving second chances as they were very busy and it could just be an off day. Hopefully it will be better next time and I will just stick with a salad as I read the salads are very good. read more

My family and I ate the miso cod, (1) uni appetizer, Caesar salad, white shrimp(?), and the hibiscus tea. The cod was a bit undercooked so the staff kindly took it back and cooked it longer. The Caesar salad was way too peppery to be enjoyable, but we just put up with it. The shrimp I had was served on a bread in a pool of butter and the bread was kind of hard. The shrimp was super plump and good. The tea and uni were perfection. All these dishes was enough to get us more than full. read more

This place has all the right pieces to be a stellar restaurant. Unfortunately they lack attention to small details that make a huge difference. The menu has great diversity and I appreciated that. Organized nicely by Pizzas, non-pizzas, sandwiches, and the specials were placed right in front of the register. I couldn't decide so I order the "trust us" (a 3 item dinner option that they pick), my guy ordered the bbq brisket sandwich. We found a spot and within 5 minutes my first item came out (odd because it was a pizza) the cheese was hardened and cold so it fell right off the crust to expose a plate full of liquid underneath. It was really off putting. Then the second item came that was two pieces of shrimp on toast, while the shrimp were cooked nicely, there was far too much butter/sauce underneath and again soggy bread. My last item came out that was some salad, I wouldn't know for sure because the server dropped it and left without a word. It consisted of shaved fennel and what seemed to be puréed chickpeas, curry and a TON of raw garlic. While I appreciate the flavors, the garlic was soooo overpowering it was inedible. Finally my guys sandwich showed up. The brisket was tender, but nothing special. It was a very underwhelming meal and we were left hungry afterwards. I really loved the interior, the staff was friendly and the farm to table concept is nice. They just really missed the mark with the food. All small things that are easily fixed if paid attention to. Next time we are in town we will probably check out another spot. read more

We had heard good things and were disappointed in our service. We waited in line 10-15 minutes to place our order and then sat down waiting for our lunch orders to arrive. 20+ minutes or more passed and others were finishing up or getting their orders who had sat down after us. I checked on our order with a woman who was near the kitchen and organizing the orders with the kitchen. She was busy and didn't seem thrilled. She said one sandwich was ready for a bit but the other would take time. I went back to the table and 5 minutes later she brought over the sandwich she said was ready for awhile but no sign of the other sandwich. We had already long finished our chips and drinks and we waited on the other sandwich. More time passed and nothing. We asked another woman (perhaps the manager) what was going on. She said two different areas made the two sandwiches, as if that made any sense. We asked for a refund on the never-coming second sandwich and she handed us $20. What does all this mean? I'd say better to go somewhere else if your intention is to actually eat. While slightly busy it wasn't crazy busy. No one seemed concerned about our inquiries or tried to make it right. I would just go to Anderson's or someplace else unless you have time to burn. ** After perusing other reviews, this seems a semi regular thing. My suggestion is have two people taking orders so the line moves and hire more cook staff and perhaps more runners to get food out. A lunch should not take well over an hour total to get HALF your intended order. Good luck. read more

I've tried to order take out a couple of times this past month. Both times the phone was picked up, I could hear the restaurant noise in the background but no one actually responded to take the order. Maybe either their phone isn't working properly, or their staff doesn't know how to use the phone properly, or...? I wanted to place the order online but their online menu isn't complete so I can't get the items I want, so over the phone seems to be the only option except that doesn't work as I've mentioned. The owner should probably check with their staff to see if their phone is working. read more

Tried Industrial Eats today for the first time. The service was great, the menu is great, the food flavor was great. Where they need improvement is in the kitchen in regards to meats that require "low and slow" BBQ. The brisket was cooked way to fast as well as the pulled pork. Both were tough and very disappointing. If your gonna stick that on your menu, do it right or don't bother. My wife had the fish and loved it. I'll be back to work through the menu. read more

Industrial Eats - Beautiful sandwich with a beer and my best friend Mae.... - Pizza Near Me - Buellton, California

Delicious creative wood-fired pizzas and salads served in a cool atmosphere with eclectic decor. Both the pizzas and salads were seasoned with a heavy hand, and were thus full of flavor. The highlight for me was a white pizza with peaches and gorgonzola, a perfect balance of savory, salty, and sweet. The margherita wasn't traditional, with the sauce maintaining some of it's raw tomato character and with noticeable overtones of garlic. Our salad combined grapefruit and fennel totally drowning in dressing, but the seasoning was terrific yet again. We didn't have to wait long to find a place to sit for a late dinner (8pm) on a Saturday night. The communal tables made for great conversations with our fellow diners! This is a great place for a delicious, quick, and entertaining dinner in the Santa Ynez area. read more

Industrial Eats - Bahmi - Pizza Near Me - Buellton, California

We were recommended to go to Industrial Eats, so we tried it. The menu looked good and we were excited to try the food. The food is prepared in the open, so you could see everything that is happening with the preparation of your food. While waiting for our food, the French fries came out and was split between two orders at different tables. The woman who was just at the registered came to do the split and was using her hands without washing them first. Also one of the cooks in the back grabbed some fries and was eating them from our portion. This is unacceptable and would not recommend this place because who knows what is happening to your food in the back where you can't see. Industrial Eats was confronted about this but just acted like it was no big deal. We will not go back ever. 1 star posted only because you have to. read more

Lots of positive reviews for this place so we decided to try it. We had the BBQ brisket sandwich, which was just ok. It was a little fatty and not as much meat as I expected; more coleslaw on the sandwich than meat. The meat I had was tasty, although could have had a little more sauce. Also for 17$ could have a side of fruit or fries. We also had the prosciutto and arugula pizza. It was a small and disappointing pizza as there was no sauce and was more like a flat bread. Again for 17$ could have been better. The service was friendly and the place was busy. Order at the counter and then find a place to sit. Overall a disappointing meal. read more

Wow! Just get here, but not at the same time as me. This is foodie Heaven. The only problem coming here, the menu is always changing and you can't eat everything. I would recommend ordering family style so you can share and experience as much as you can. You must order the shrimp pancetta, it's an explosion of flavor and always on the menu. Enjoy! read more

I've been coming to Buellton regularly for work and kept seeing this place on Yelp so I finally got to try it. First off they have a nice outdoor dining area and are enforcing social distancing inside when you order. I tried the brisket sandwich and Little Gems salad. I enjoyed the brisket sandwich a lot. I really liked the coleslaw. I would order a side of the coleslaw if i could. The brisket was generous however i found the bbq sauce to be a little much. I would maybe ask for less sauce or sauce on the side next time. I was really hoping the little gems salad was going to be good but I was a bit dissapointed. It was literally a small head of lettuce cut in half with a little pepper sprinkled on top with a few strip of anchovies, 2 pieces of pancetta and an egg. I liked all the toppings but hated the way the lettuce was served. I will definitely come back and try other items but will likely pass on this salad. read more

Got the tongue pastrami sandwich. I've been counting calories so figured I'd eat half for late lunch and the other half for dinner. It was so delicious, all I could think back on my 45 minute ride to Santa Barbara was finishing it. It was gone an hour later. Also tried the skirt steak pizza. I heard it was really good but the tastes were different. If you are into classic pizzas, would probably skip and just get your favorite ones. The crust was great. There were two friends sitting across from me eating the hummus beet salad. The look on her face when she bit into the dish - well, let's hope her partner gets the same look one day. read more

Great vibe. Even better food! Lots of care goes into each plate. Very urban eats for an area with touristy feel and taste!

Another outstanding lunch at the most amazing and delicious restaurant in the area!! Whoooot whoot!! The care and attention to detail the staff has is impressive. I walked in with a party or 6, and they were so polite and caring to make sure we felt comfortable. These are great people!! And the food!! Well, I will let the photos speak for themselves, but one of my favorites was the cauliflower dish and white shrimp. Extra toasted bread for the broth....??? Oh yeah!! 5 stars from Phish! read more

Tasty sandwiches - my boyfriend got the beef tongue (I'm not a fan of tongue but he is, and thought it was tasty); I got the Cubano which was a much more loaded sandwich than your typical Cubano with different types of meat inside. The side romaine salad was crisp and fresh, and very flavorful with a simple vinaigrette dressing. You order at a counter and they bring the food to you - several tables of outdoor seating with a large parking lot. My boyfriend and I had stopped by Solvang on the way to Paso Robles and it was a complete zoo, so we ended up coming here to grab lunch and it was a perfect pitstop! read more

I had mentioned in another review that on my little weekend trip, I can't decide whether Industrial Eats is better or Bacon and Brine is better. Either way, both prove to be amazing little restaurants with very flavorful food! Located in a pretty industrial part of town, it gives meaning to its name. You can bet I would come back here if I was in town again! Probably want to try some of the sandwiches. Must haves: 1. Cauliflower Specialty dish 2. Shrimp Buschetta Can skip: 1.

Very good! I ordered the "mushrooms, greens, parm, cream" plate. My only issue for not giving 5 stars was that since there was enough cheese, there was no need for so much oil. And one recommendation I'd make to that plate is to add a complimentary ingredient to offset the heavy taste of the cheese and oil. Maybe sun dried tomatoes or something. Could also add more vege options or more non pork plates. read more

One of our favorite restaurants ever. Been here many times in the past. Went there today 1-24-23 and were appalled. They were playing super loud rap. Not bad normally, but some of the words in the song: "cut her fucking bra off and rub her double D's on my lips", " best fuck I ever had". There were children there. We were mortified.

Wow! If your a foodie this is your place to eat in Buellton. Fresh honest food which they put their own twist on. If your not adventurous stick to pizzas or sandwiches(both very good). If you want the great stuff go for the board specials on the front counter. There's such a selection we usually go for the " trust me" where they pick three items from the menu and surprise you! read more

I'll preface this by saying that I'm a Valley local and have eaten here a number of times. Each time, I really want to love it, but they make it so hard. The vibe here is totally pretentious, doesn't fit the Valley. It reminds me of a restaurant you'd find down in LA around Los Feliz or Silverlake. There's a total hipster, trendy feel that makes it a little annoying. The owner made the news for his anti-Trump remarks a few years ago and with COVID, they've been posting political quips on their doors. I think the last sign I read said something like "wear your mask because of our corrupt government." Um, ya, okay bruh. When you walk in, the menu can be overwhelming and confusing. There are two long pieces of butcher paper hanging from the wall. Each page lists ingredients and you're supposed to figure out if it's a salad, a pizza, or a sandwich. Recently, after years, they finally labeled the sections. Then there are a dozen or so picture frames scattered around the counter that list the day's specials. You can't see any of this until you're at the front of the line, so you're left pressured and scrambling to figure it out once you're up to order. The pizzas used to be pretty tasty here but over the course of the last 1-2 years, they've really declined in quality. I've tried almost every pizza on the menu, including the: Skirt Steak, Tomatillo, Queso Fresco ($16); Fennel Sausage, Tomato, Mozzarella, Basil ($16); Gorgonzola, Apple, Bacon ($16) and Mushrooms, Chard, Camembert, Confit Garlic ($16). The cheese is always cold and never melted correctly. You get six little slices that leave you hungry for more. At $16, you get a better (and more affordable) pizza at California Pizza Kitchen. Their Caesar Salad ($11) is WAY overdressed. The dressing is overwhelmingly tangy and garlicky. There is zero balance to this dressing. It arrives as a soggy mess. For Restaurant Week, they simply had the option of "Trust Us." I gave it a shot and received a cold tomato soup, a really cold grilled cheese sandwich with thick bread and barely any cheese, the overdressed and soggy Ceasar salad, and what seemed like a cauliflower au gratin. Since they're serving all their food in non-breathable boxes, it all ends up steamed to death by the time you either get home or open it up outside. There's no tap water here. I was told during my last visit that it's because of COVID. In the pre-COVID days, they had a self-serve glass water dispenser with a tap and you could fill your cup. Apparently, there's some inherent "COVID risk" with that. Your only option is the little 500ml Fiji water bottle for a ridiculous $4. If you want a glass of wine, it comes served in a thimble. I think the last straw for me was the trash situation. Apparently, it's too difficult to set out a few trash cans in their outdoor seating area. Instead, there's a sign on the door instructing you to carry your trash all the way down to the end of the parking lot and throw it in their giant commercial dumpster. Seriously? This may be the most pretentious part of the whole ordeal. There are a lot better places in the Valley where the food is of better quality and the service top-notch. Industrial Eats is just overrated and if it wasn't located in a town of 4,000 people with limited options, I doubt it would survive. read more

So much to pick from, I wanted to try everything. Had the banh mi, very good. Next time, going for the pizza.

I have been here several times and the experience is always different. I do like their food and the environment . I do not enjoy this place during COVID. Be prepared to wait! The service can use some work/organization. It is not very clear where to wait or get your food once it is ready. I had to go ask if my food was ready, and it was, but it was put on the side with my name on it. The items that are for sale in the middle table say "do not touch," but they have no price on them, which I believe they should to avoid touching them. read more
