Reviews for Valle Eatery + Bar in Lompoc, CA
Good food. Great bar. Service in the dining area can be a bit slow. Will definitely be back sometime soon.
Perfect local place to gather with friends. Staff is friendly. Food is served as requested, is hot when you get it, and... delicious. I had the ribeye steak and mashed potatoes with broccolini. Everything was made to order. Read more
Friendly service, delicious food and different areas of dining have different atmosphere. We sat around the corner from the big... open area, past the bar. Nice and quiet high top table for 2! Read more
Came in for drinks and apps. Party of 2 sat immediately. Restrooms were extremely clean! Waitress, Ari, did great! Thank you for... such great service! We ordered the following during happy hour, a glass of chardonnay, 2 Dragon Fruit Mojitos, The pork bellytacos, the brussel sprouts lightly fried, and a margherita pizza. The drinks are exquisite and the food was all cookedperfectly. The pizza could have been a light more toasted. Great place, excellent service, and delicious food. Will come again,just earlier to enjoy happy hour longer. Read more
Lovely service, everyone was very kind during our two visits. We tried the pepperoni/olive pizza, halibut tacos, and house... French fries, and all were delicious. Nice assortment of beers, wine, and cocktails - the blueberry mojito I tried was veryrefreshing. The bar area was our favorite for seating, it's tucked into a nice corner and is a little more quiet than the Eateryseating in the hotel lobby. We did not try the patio, but it seems like a pleasant place to dine on a summer evening. We'ddefinitely go back! Read more
Very nice looking place, but extremely expensive. The food was no where near worth the price paid. Steak over cooked and small... for $30. Lacking in the sides. The pizzas were ok, so if you go there just order one of those. The flavor on pizza was justalright. I would also say that you don't need reservations because we were the only ones there the whole time. The staff needsto be a bit more attentive also. They stood around talking most of the time. Only got water refills once. Read more
Hilton Garden Inns are not generally recognized for their epicurean accomplishments however I was curious to try out the Valle... Eatery & Bar as it is/presented as a branded restaurant. Additionally, being a travel nerd and a Marriott platinum elite, I'mdown to check out a new hotel to see what's on tap. The menu is lacks variety but they may be partially forgiven consideringthis is a hotel restaurant in Lompoc. Tapas aside, you basically have pizza(s), burger(s), or light sandwiches to choosefrom. I opted for the Valle Burger thinking it would be the standard, safe choice. Truth-be-told, the meat was a little on thedry side and could've used more (or any) seasoning. The accompanying side salad had a healthy mix of greens however a fewcherry tomatoes had definitely passed their prime and the Caesar dressing had a layer of small bubbles on the top--a classicsign of spoilage/food contamination. Against my better judgement, I had small sample which didn't taste anything like aCaesar/creamy Caesar. It had a confused flavor, for sure nothing I'd intentionally order. Conversely, the service was fast,friendly, and efficient. Overall it was a positive experience; however to be fair I was the only one there towards the end oftheir lunch service. The atmosphere is open and modern and there are a lot of good seating options to choose from, even anoutdoor patio. To top it off, the bar maintains a healthy selection of local brews on tap. Honestly, I'm hesitant to eat thereagain however I wouldn't pass on the bar/lobby as a meetup spot with friends. Read more
Really good food and service. Dakota was our server and he took great care of us. Ribeye was a bit over cooked (ordered med and... got well) so order down or ask them to keep an eye on it. Read more
