"Voted Santa Clarita’s best chef six times, Daniel Otto left a permanent imprint on the city when he founded this ambitious corner bistro in 2018. It quickly became Newhall’s premier upscale restaurant, a title which has yet to be seriously challenged. Although Otto’s menus are seasonal, his gifts with meat and fowl — especially on the Junction’s peerless slow-roasted prime rib — are evident year-round." - Sean L. Malin
