1 Best Restaurant in Buellton, The Central Coast

You'll find everything from grilled artichokes to quail at this casual eatery, but most people come for the smoky Santa Maria–style barbecue. Be sure to try a glass of owner-chef-winemaker Frank Ostini's signature Highliner Pinot Noir, a star in the film Sideways. Lunch and snacks are available earlier in the day at the Hitching Post Wines tasting room next door.
