For some reason, they crammed us into a table right by the cash register where the sun glinting off a parked car unavoidably seen through the doorway was in my eyes. When no one came to serve us after a long while, and I saw another table cleared, I eventually found the hostess to ask if we could move. She... more

If you're in Solvang and you're looking for a meal you can have with your fido friend, keep walking past Paula's. Solvang is a bit out of the way, so I'd imagine that 80-90 percent of diners in the area are tourists. As a tourist with a pet I'm always looking for places with outdoor patios so I can eat... more

We ate there for breakfast. Absolutely fresh and delicious. Would definitely go back again and highly recommend it to anyone. This is coming from me, a 'picky eater' who demands clean, fresh food and won't settle for less. more

We were in Solvang for 2 days and ate at Paula's Pancake House for breakfast on both mornings. The food is quite flavorful and the menu is quite varied. Try the country sausage ~ yummy! We ate outside and the atmosphere was relaxing. The waitresses were quick and courteous. This restaurant always has a crowd waiting outside, but parties of... more

It's not often I get to dine without finding flaw in the service, this little gal in her cute little Danish uniform managed an entire patio, maybe 12-15 tables and she did it all with a smile and perfect timing! For anyone that I could see. I really wanted to tell the management how great she was, but they were... more

We ate here to get something a little more substantial before heading out wine tasting. The food was great, there was plenty of it and the prices were exceptionally reasonable. My wife and I were both well fortified for a day of wine tasting! more

We had to try Paula's after reading all the reviews. We had mixed opinions about the "famous" Danish pancakes. My husband and son loved them, but I only thought they were okay. My daughters had the buttermilk pancakes and they liked them. If we were back in Solvang, we would probably try another restaurant just to see how it compares... more

They are really child-friendly. We had 3 pre-schoolers in our party (plus 5 adults) and all of us totally enjoyed the ambience and FOOD (it was brunch for us). We sat on the patio (which was tiny) and it was so nice looking out onto the street at the passers-by and the Danish-themed architecture of the buildings. They also have... more

I wrote a review in April '07, suggesting how poor Paula's had gotten. We were in the area last weekend and decided to try again. Much, Much better. It seems they've dealt with some of the service issues from a couple years ago. The food was also very fresh and tasty, and.....this was a busy day. Contrats Paula's. We WILL... more
