I grew up on the Central Coast and had never heard of this restaurant! Was very surprised at how much I liked it. Decent prices and my steak was cooked perfectly. My 14oz top sirloin came with beans, salsa, bread and a side for $35. Only complaint was the service and the order they bring stuff out in….they were friendly but not super on top of things and really had a hard time with our onion ring orders. Would definitely recommend!

This goes against popular belief, however I wasn’t a fan. The service was excellent, that wasn’t my problem, my problem was the actual food. Granted I could have gone on an off night, but I won’t be trying it again. We made the 1 hour drive, because so many people were raving about “The Swiss”! Ok, so here goes my food experience at The Swiss. I ordered the Filet Mignon and Lobster tail $65. My steak came over cooked and the lobster tail was also over done and chewy. The flavor on my overcooked steak was good, but because of the over cook it had a grainy texture. Not what a filet should be, but My husband who ordered the 10oz Filet Mignon was bland, no seasoning, but cooked perfect. We ordered the Grilled Artichoke for an appetizer and that was completely water logged. The sauce was yummy. The Santa Maria style beans were bland and the garlic bread was smashed and flavorless and the fettuccine alfredo was like a brick. So all in all I wasn’t happy. Like I said it could have been an off night, but taking the chance on another 1 hour drive to try it a second time will not be happening.

I really was more by the food. It was well worth the price because they had big portion sizes. The service was also really quick and the servers were helpful!

A great little BBQ spot. Passing through on the waybto Las Angeles, we stopped in Santa Maria for the night. The Swiss had excellent food and great staff. I am always a little skeptical of BBQ pork chops because most places.just can’t get them right but these were spot on, huge juicy chops well seasoned and cook just right. The ribs and sides were great too !

My first visit to The Swiss, and I’m a fan. My servers were Sandy and Sonia, and they were awesome! Amazing service and wonderful food. All meat is cut and aged inhouse.The steak fries and onion rings were worth the visit alone. My entre was served with locally sourced Pintoquito Beans… delicious! I went with salad over the soup. Fresh spring mix with a very nice Bleu Cheese dressing. My steak was a perfect medium. The flavor is so good you’re not going to want to use any steak sauce on these meats. Definitely a recommend on this one.

My husband and I tried out the Swiss for the first time tonight and it’s a new favorite! Everyone was really nice and our server Carlos was exceptional! We had the artichoke and the jalapeño popper appetizer (both amazing) and he ordered the prime rib sandwich and I had the jalapeño burger. Both meals were fantastic and we split the sides since he got onion rings and I got fries. The portions were large (we have enough for dinner tomorrow) and the pricing was good. They were also very generous with the garlic bread which is nice haha! We can’t wait to go back and get a steak dinner!

This my first visit and it will definitely not be my last! They have such a lovely open dining area. It is beautifully decorated. The food is truly delicious. And the portion sizes are big! It is served promptly, professionally and hot! The menu prices are much better than other steak houses in the area.
