A Timeless Culinary & Wine Destination in the Heart of Santa Barbara Wine Country — Real Estate Included

Nestled in the highly desirable Santa Ynez Valley, this established, high-volume restaurant, bar, and boutique wine shop offers a rare opportunity to own a renowned hospitality destination along with its prime real estate. Located just 35 miles from Santa Barbara and a favorite escape for Los Angeles visitors, the property is surrounded by luxury inns, award-winning tasting rooms, and upscale boutiques.

Founded in 1995 and beautifully renovated in 2001, this iconic establishment has earned national acclaim for its seasonal, farm-to-table cuisine, thoughtfully curated wine selection, and exceptional guest experiences. It combines a full-service restaurant with a boutique wine shop, offering complementary revenue streams under a trusted and recognizable brand.

The business is efficiently run by a seasoned team, including a General Manager, Executive Chef, and Wine Store Director, supported by 15 full-time and up to 35 part-time employees. With the current owners preparing for retirement, this is a unique opportunity to acquire both a thriving business and the property it occupies.

The freestanding 3,920 sq. ft. restaurant sits on a 6,098 sq. ft. lot, zoned C-2 General Commercial. It includes two dedicated parking spaces and ample street parking. The space features polished concrete floors, skylights, a spacious U-shaped bar with pendant lighting, a charming outdoor patio, and a private banquet room adorned with rustic wainscoting and vintage character. The well-equipped kitchen includes a 16-foot hooded cookline, a 14-foot hood in a secondary prep kitchen, a walk-in cooler, and a 1,500-gallon grease trap.

This is an exceptional opportunity for a visionary chef-owner or hospitality group to take the reins of what Travel + Leisure named “America’s Best Small Town for Food & Wine.” Accolades include a Wine Spectator Award, Cinematic Recognition, a Thriving Wine Club, and consistent 4.5 to 4.6-star reviews across the board.
