The Swiss

You can smell it from the parking lot. The sweet scent of Santa Maria bbq. I arrived at 5pm and there was a big dinner crowd waiting to get in. Looks like reservations are in order for the next dinner here. Server was friendly and kept my soda water refilled.

I split a full rack of baby back ribs with my kid. The dinner make for a huge meal as you get a soup or salad, garlic bread, beans, and a side. For the side we split an order of rings and fries. Fries were the big steak fries similar to ones I’ve had at Red Robin. I like the crispy outside and fluffy inside. Delicious. Onion rings had a very crunchy panko batter which also reminded me of Red Robin onion rings. I liked the fried onion flavor but the rings seemed a bit over fried as batter was pretty hard.

Ribs had a delicious flavor and aroma from being grilled over red oak and seasoned with black pepper, salt, and garlic. They would have been perfect with a bit less time on the grill as these ribs were well done.
