    Michelin Guide should take note. This is by far the best food we have had in the area. Even better than Bell's and we love Bell's. Unique dishes - the uni "flan" is not to be missed. Even the salad was outstanding. Miso cod also excellent. Gorgeous restaurant. We will definitely be back.

    My girlfriend is allergic to garlic, and the chef and staff accommodated her dietary restrictions; the chef even prepared a special mussel dish for us. It was a memorable experience, indeed.

    Our server was Laura (she has been our server on numerous occasions over the years at other restaurants in Solvang and we are so happy that she is at the Gathering Table). Service was excellent (as always). The food was fabulous. We will be back the next time we are in town.

    The food and service was first rate as usual. We sat outside next to the exterior door that leads to the kitchen. About every 15 seconds on average, food service personnel would pass through this door. After opening, the door would slam shut. The repetitive noise and vibration took away from our enjoyment of the exceptional food and otherwise nice ambience. A soft close feature on this door is one simple solution.

    The preset menu for Valentine’s Day was amazing. Best mushroom risotto we have ever tasted and the wagu ribeye was like butter. Lived it
