"Founded by the Ostini family in 1952, this pillar of the Santa Maria Valley occupies a 100-year-old building where locals gather for milestone events; Bill Ostini took over daily operations in 1977 while his brother Frank now runs the Buellton outpost. I find it notable for serving one of the best top sirloins in the area, which is cooked over a flaming indoor barbecue pit in the classic Santa Maria style." - Natalie Zimmerman
