It only took an hour to get a table, but it was worth it. We explored the beach while we waited, and once inside we explored inside. We sat at a booth away from the wind coming in the emergency exit, and with an obstructed view of ocean. It was all good! Sam was our exceptional server. He took our drink and food orders, and everything came out quickly. My tuna melt was excellent. Husband's shrimp and fries with coleslaw was also delicious. Niece loved her sesame seared Ahi Tuna. Nice touches: paper straws and carafe of water on the table. Nice ambiance with twinkling Christmas lights. Negatives? No bathrooms inside. Only bathrooms are outside. Cold!

What an amazing place wit great people! My wife and I cancelled our reservation for Convivo at the Santa Barbara Inn due to an issue with the previous evenings dinner on Christmas Eve. We stopped in to the Hilton and asked the hostess at the Hilton if she had any tables for dinner and she was so kind and gracious and stated yes, no problem. She took us to a table and my wife asked for the Hightower booth and she graciously accommodated the request. She was so nice and graceful..thanks so much. We had a wonderful server who brought us some great cocktails. We ordered the specials on the Christmas menu and I had the pumpkin ravioli and my wife had the organic chicken dish. Both were awesome. I commend and thank the staff and management for a job well done and we had a great time. Highly recommended.

Honestly the food is not worth the price you're paying. In harsh words, this place is for the rich people who don't know taste. Don't waste your money here. I came from 2 hours out of town and wanted to treat my boyfriend for our anniversary so we chose this spot since it had good reviews. Staff could have been more lively but it seemed like they didn't care about us because we don't look of money. Now the food, the waiter recommended the $70 dollar steak which I said I would give a try if he's speaking so highly of it. I ordered it to be cooked medium. I got it rare, not even medium rare, but RARE. Next time it came out it was cooked a little too well but I didn't want to bother again so I tried it and my gosh was it bland. It tasted nothing like what was described and I don't even think there was either salt or pepper at the minimum. Not to mention the price is JUST for steak no sides or anything. So I ordered mashed potatoes as well and it tasted like BOX mashed potatoes. After that I lost my appetite and asked for the bill. Still ended up paying 100 for 1 entré and an appetizer. If you want ACTUAL good food for a fair price go somewhere else. 10/10 DO NOT recommend this place.

Wow ! Service 5 star class acts from the Hostess to Waitress to Manager all treated us as if we were only family dining, Food- I think my entire family all were in agreement Chicken Sandwich was absolutely the best most delicious sandwich we have ever had. Every bite was so fantastic filled with flavor. We will definitely be returning for that Chicken Sandwich!!

My boyfriend and I came from 2 hours out of town and this place was probably the highlight of our trip. The crab cakes are amazing, and I'm usually not a fan of crab cakes but I couldn't resist eating off of my boyfriends plate. The location is breathtaking and I was still kept warm with the heaters despite it being in winter and by the beach. I highly recommend this place, especially during sunset!! Food was amazing and for a fair price, and service was friendly. Will be coming back again!!

Such a cute brunch spot! I actually discovered this place on TikTok and saw that they recommended the lemon ricotta pancakes that come with blueberries and oh my gosh they did not disappoint AT ALL. They were probably the best pancakes I have ever had. My boyfriend ordered the French toast and he calls himself the French toast connoisseur, and he said that those were the best he's ever tasted. I also had ordered the veggie sandwich with chicken and 10/10 as well. Will most definitely be coming back and recommending this place to friends and family. The only reason I give it a 4 star is because the service is quite slow and I had to keep flagging down random servers because mine disappeared. Otherwise they were all friendly and we were seated fast.

My experience started off terrible and ended terrible. To begin I waited in line while the cashier was on the phone with a customer only to pick up the phone yet again and take another order for 5 minutes before taking mine. While another staff member just stood there doing nothing then proceeds to take someone else's order that had just walked in. I spent over $100 there and to be honest the croissants especially chocolate were no better than Albertsons and the ones I was served on airfrance put renauds to shame. An airline... this place has gone down hill since they expanded. The hazelnut roll I asked for was grabbed from the back not from the front case which I found weird they tasted stale or at least a day old. The lemon tart was overly sweet it made our tongues pucker with the need to down a glass of water. The $15 stollen was stale and lacking dried fruit and nuts. Not traditional stollen. This is the type of place that I will forever think of as a stop on the way out of town for a road trip as in fast food. There are better more traditional bakeries in town that actually care about quality and consumer experience and are not just as dark un-updated hole in the wall. Would be nice if the tarts didn't all come in the same mold. Where is the creativity for the price you charge. Service and quality are below sub par. Get it together or stop expanding.

We really enjoyed Sama Sama. Everything was delicious and we can't wait to go back to try more dishes. The food and service were excellent. We ordered the signature wings, crispy rice salad, naughty nuri spare ribs, mie goreng, hot chicken bao and the banana donut fritters for dessert. We also got a blood orange mint soda and a citrus sun mocktail which were very refreshing. We definitely recommend and are looking forward to returning soon.

By looking in from outside as soon as they opened for dinner, I hesitated to go in. It was early and the restaurant was still had only a few customers. I was staying overnight in the area and I was new to the neighborhood. The food was excellent. One of the dishes we ordered along with chicken vindaloo, Aloo Govi, and naan, was Himalayan special chow meon. From the spicy level of 1-10, we chose 7. It was delicious but a bit too spicy for me to fully enjoy although I can proudly say I can handle spicy food. Maybe next time I will choose 5. The food was amazing with cold beer. The price was very reasonable too. By the time we were leaving, the restaurant was packed with customers.

Waited in the drive line for about 15 min. There was a large amount of cars waiting. They took the car in front of us order and then turned off the lights. We drive up to the window and they tell us they're closed. The store hours online said they close at 10. It was 7:45. They were rude and dismissive.

Came here for the first time today. Been meaning to try it for a while. My only disappointment was I kept forgetting and hadn't come sooner! Everything was really tasty! My favorite was probably the biscuits and gravy. The sausage gravy was one of the better I have ever had, biggest thing was the sausage was tasty and not greasy. Eggs over easy were perfectly cooked. Scrambled eggs and omelet eggs were nice and fluffy. Only thing I think I would change when I go back next time is for them to cook the potatoes a tad more to get them just a bit more crispy on the surface. And I probably should mention it is not the cheapest breakfast in town but is worth it in my opinion. Definitely will be back!

We just happened to be heading back to the hotel room wondering what to have for dinner and decided to try out Flor de Maiz. Given how hit-and-miss the reviews on Yelp are , we were quite prepared for the disappointment. This time, we hit the jackpot. Had the taco costeños. Absolutely the best tacos ever !! The tortillas were perfect.. warm, soft, cooked well and the char from grill marks added the extra complexity to the simple flavor. All the side accompaniments were also delicious. The margarita Guadalajara on the other hand was quite ordinary.

Was so happy when I ended up at the SB Public Market on one of the days this pop up was up and running! The eponymous hot chicken sandwich comes in mild, medium, or hot. I pushed my luck and went with the medium, and it packed a good punch. Plenty of heat, but not unbearably so. It was a delicious mess to eat. The sandwich itself came with some basic chips included. As others have mentioned though, the cost of the sides and drinks can turn the meal into a pricier than average lunch. I agree with the sentiment that some sort of combo meal would be great, as the potato salad and macaroni and cheese both look great as sides. Expect at least a 20 minute wait for your food to be ready, but worth the wait for a phenomenal sandwich!

Oh my god. How have I forgotten how good these tacos were?! Went back here after graduating from UCSB couples years back, and was reminded of how amazing this place was. This is such a simple taco, but they get the meat sooo tender and flavorful. Dear lord I'm salivating about their lengua taco.

Came in at 9:40pm, which was 20 minutes before closing. I get that it's near closing, but my order was small and was 20 whole minutes before closing. This man (I'm guessing he's the manager) gavee the rudest look when he let me in the store. And then when I was leaving, he yelled something in foreign language. I'm guessing he cursed me out or said something rude. Whoever is the manager needs to get fired or needs some disciplinary action because he should not treat the customer like that. NEVER coming to this store again as long as he works there.

Staff wasn't friendly. Bathroom was absolutely disgusting, like it had not been cleaned in a week. Drinks were wrong and kicked out at 11pm (before closing time) into 40 degree weather. My conversation was interrupted mid conversation to close out our tab an hour before posted closing time. Would've been nice to at least wait for the Uber inside.

Had fish and chips, cheese sandwich for kids. Menu was limited at sister location. Nothing great. It was dark so couldn't see much of the view. Overpriced

Everything we had at Loquita was so good!!! My fiancé and I had the Carpaccio de Carne, Champinones, Tortilla Espanola, Pulpo, and Costilla de Res. Each bite was delicious, I can't even choose a favorite. The restaurant was also very accommodating with our dog and the weather. We were given a table in an area with low foot traffic as I requested. The outdoor patio was quite cozy as there are so many heaters and we got to sit next to the fire. I ended up shedding a layer despite the cold weather. Highly recommend Loquita!!!

Cute little spot to grab a beer and a bite to eat! There's indoor and outdoor seating, everyone was super friendly. Their menu was cute and witty, they have a couple games at the table. The portions were kind of small in my opinion for prices but for the area I'm sure it's average. The food was good. A few items we got was the shrimp po boy, grilled fish tacos and sliders.

I usually don't leave bad reviews, everyone can have a bad day, but when you go to an establishment and multiple elements are just not focus on the consumer having the best experience, I feel compelled to share it. I am still sitting at the restaurant as I write this review. It's about 48 degrees outside and 2 out of the 3 doors at the restaurant are wide open, it's pretty chilly inside... I gave up in getting up to close the door closest to us. The service, well, let's just say that there are people not meant to be in the service industry. The food was tasty and fresh. Any attempt to make it an extraordinary experience, was not existent.

Great Service, there is no vegan options on the menu, but a little fix on your main dish goes long way. The carnitas-chilaquiles mixed with Mediterranean veggies dish. Remove the carnitas and add veggies to the chilaquiles.

It was raining and we were looking for a warm meal. Staff was extremely friendly as we ordered at the counter. My husband and I spilt the chicken fajitas and it was perfect with a side of beans and rice. Tortillas seemed handmade and the salsas were delicious. Hibiscus margarita was fantastic!!

Not to sound snobby, but I've had better meals. For the price, Imo expected more. It wasn't bad, just not great. The meat was chewy... and weirdly, the tap water had a funny taste.

This was recommended for us to try so we popped on in! We started off with some dunes coffee and beignets with powdered sugar, they didn't disappoint. We tried some of the "local favorites" like jambalaya with egg, chilaquiles, biscuits and gravy and huevos rancheros. Portions are pretty big, food was pretty good. Probably wouldn't order the biscuits and gravy again, unless you like basic things, but even then could of used more gravy. Only complaint (and minus a star for ) was Carlos' service and his lack of personality. Seemed like we were an inconvenience to be there. Towards the end he somewhat came around. Still seemed like he had better things to do but everyone else was friendly.

I'm gonna leave a half assed review because this is a half assed establishment. Atmosphere is weird as hell. Food is over priced and mediocre at best. The service was so bad it was laughable, my girlfriend and I were cracking up all night at how awful everything was. I will say the female bartender seemed very sweet and she was trying to help pick up plates and bring checks. I have no idea if she made good drinks though because I ordered one and it never came. I think this place could be better if they were more organized. But I have to warn everyone not to eat here. Please don't waste your money

We had brunch and despite it being overly priced, it was not very tasty. Mine was cold, They are charging a lot for the experience $15 for iced teas and $10.00 for three spoons of potato salad! There are other five star places in SB that offer far better value for champagne brunches.

I had heard great things about this place, but left disappointed after dinner here. The environment was very cool and the fireplace at the table was a nice touch on a chilly night. The appetizers were tasty but a bit pricy, I would have appreciated more pita bread too. Unfortunately, the rest of our dinner was underwhelming. First, the service was quite slow. Our table was not ready when we arrived for our reservation, it took around 10 minutes past our scheduled time to be seated, which was unpleasant considering the chilly weather. You wait for your table at the bottom of a set of stairs on the sidewalk in a very unorganized manner. People who arrived after us were given a table before we were because there was no clear line out front. Our waitress was quite friendly but it took forever for her to come to our table at the start of the meal. When we finally received water after 10 minutes, the waiter didn't even pour it into our glasses, just placed a bottle without ice on the table and rarely refilled it. There are of course many restaurants that do something similar, but the prices suggest this is a high-end restaurant, so I would've expected the service to be better. Our food also took a while, it seemed like the restaurant was very understaffed as everything just moved very slowly all night. The next issue was with the menu. They have a relatively small menu to begin with which wouldn't be an issue normally. However, on the night we visited, they were all out of at least half of their 8-10 entrees. I believe there were only 4 dishes to choose from, which is frankly unacceptable. They somehow didn't have any kebabs, which was puzzling considering we could order a lemon chicken dish, but not a chicken kebab (was it a skewer shortage?). Anyways, I have never been to a restaurant that was all out of half of their menu on a typical Sunday night. Our waitress was apologetic but many members of our party had to settle for a dish that they were not very excited about. I ordered the Lemon Chicken. The chicken was alright but was absolutely drenched in buttery lemon sauce. The sauce was overwhelming, but would have been tasty if they used a lesser quantity. The other issue with the chicken was the knife actually. This knife had no serrated edge, thus it was extremely dull. Cutting through even a chicken breast was extremely challenging. I would have honestly preferred a plastic knife. I'm not sure why they decided to provide knives that couldn't cut through butter, but at least the children at our table didn't stab themselves? Again I have never been to a restaurant that provided knives like these to adult customers, it was very confusing. Other members of our party ordered the Mixed Shawarma and complained of it being extremely dry. Between the soaked chicken and the dry shawarma, it certainly seemed like the restaurant needs to reconsider their sauce distribution. Anyways, the sides of salad and french fries were both tasty. Based on the positive reviews, I am sure that the kebabs and other unavailable dishes are quite tasty, it would have been nice to try those. Zaytoon showed some promise, and I might consider giving it a second chance. But the issues with the service, food, menu, and knives would make me very hesitant to do so.

Out of all the Caje locations in Santa Barbara, this is by far my favorite one. After trying them in the summer, I have become a huge fan of both their coffee shops and beans. I particularly love the interior of this location and the "bar" vibes. They have plenty of room/seating inside and they can also accommodate outside seating. It's a great place to just people-watch or post up and get some work done. They have great lo-fi music playing and even a couch area in the back if you want to just chill with friends. Overall quality of coffee and presentation is awesome!

Ok ok, I've been to this spot a few times for various reasons. Food, beer, hangout with friends/family etc. And the consistency keeps me coming back! The first time I thought everyone was just hyping up yet another brewery spot BUT, they are more than just their diverse beer selection. Not only do they have a range with beer, anything for the lighter beer enthusiasts, hoppy lovers and dark almost creamy beer admirers, they also serve wine and hard kombucha! They offer a flight for those still figuring out their vibe too. Their food menu also gives a range from apps like fries, pretzels, sausages to full on meals like pizza, salads and burgers. They offer vegan options too! I've had their fries, margarita pizza, sausage sampler and Bavarian pretzel. If you haven't tried it yet, I'd suggest stopping in when it's not raining as the outside atmosphere is best with the fire pits. But they do have indoor seating too.

I first encountered this restaurant as a tern and it's still here, withstanding time and a devastating flood down the road. Today, we had the egg drop soup, almond chicken, cashew chicken and chicken with broccoli ( with chili's added). My favorite sauce was in the chicken with broccoli and I like the slices of chicken, Long or wide and flattened. My son's was the salty cashew chicken sauce with broken up chicken pieces. You can count on the traditional taste of all the dishes. Consistent. Take the egg rolls over the pot stickers. The tea was delicious too.

Bottom line: Food - Good! Service - Bad! As I have said on this site a lot, effort shows and lack of effort sticks out like a sore thumb. I brought the family down here to try out the spot as it's new and we like to try out new spots. We stood at the front patiently for about five minutes as staff members walked past until someone finally came up to us and told us to go ahead and sit anywhere that we would like. We found a place to sit and waited patiently for someone to come by. We probably waited 15 minutes until I finally just went and found some menus for us. Eventually somebody came by and took our order. I got the poke bowl and left house salad which was fantastic. The poke was small but the salad was big so it evens out! We also ordered a burger, the mac & cheese and my wife got the fish and chips. Everybody enjoyed their food but after we were done we were again just sitting there waiting for somebody to come around. I finally had to go inside and ask the bartender if he would be so kind as to ring us up. He had to leave to go get somebody to ring us up, as the second person was attempting to ring us up somebody else had to come by and help. So it took three people to ring up our order. I would imagine because it is the week of Christmas that it's very hard to find people to work, and I understand that having worked in service industry positions since I was a teenager. Having said that they still had four people working but it didn't appear that anybody was going around and keeping an eye on all the tables. Overall we like this place and will probably give it another try when it's not a holiday

So, I placed an order last night with Rusty's off of Carrillo for delivery, as I had many times over the last decades (SB local). I was VERY specific in my delivery details, as my house is behind the main house on the property. I am unit A. About an hour later, my neighbor knocked on my door and was holding my pizza. He told me that he found it on his back porch. I was stunned, but, thankful that he found it. I took the pizza inside and when I opened the box, the pizza was cold (no surprise) and there was a piece missing. Yep, somebody had eaten a piece of it. I know it wasn't my neighbor, which means it was likely the driver (?), or maybe it was done at the pizza joint and he didn't check the box?? Either way, I was completely disgusted. We are in the middle of a pandemic and somebody touched/ate my food. UGH. I called and spoke with a supervisor (Jonathan) and told him the story and told him that the pizza was on my front porch, as I refused to eat it and refused to order a replacement (I just didn't trust them not to mess with my food.) The driver came back and grabbed the pizza and I am supposed to be getting a refund. We'll see if that really happens. I will not order food from them again, which makes me sad. I have a 40+ year history of patronage at Rustys, but, this is not okay. Too bad.

Nothing bad to say about my visit at the Boathouse @ Hendry's Beach, definitely one of the better dinner views in Santa Barbara. Coincidentally dinner was timed with the sunset and it was gorgeous to eat and watch. When we arrived we were quickly greeted and sat, the prime tables towards the ocean are for full service guests and the tables in the back patio are reserved for HH guests. You can't see the beach that well from the patio, but you can definitely see the ocean as well as the sunset as shown. The beach literally starts where the restaurant starts, so it is easy to take a walk before/after dinner. HH has some great prices and portions are great. All the food is ok, but it is definitely not bad, I think that you're definitely paying more for the view though. My fish and chips were decent and gf's mussels were alright; mussels didn't taste that fresh, but the sauce was excellent. Service is top notch.

I ordered three different flavors for a total of 4 Empanadas. They missed on but that can easily happen no not a big deal. I'm sure if I call and say last time you missed one they would gladly add extra one to make up. The special was Turkey, it was a bit too dry for me but my brother loved it. The cheese basil and they house special was amazing!

This is the first review I have ever posted. That is how strongly I feel about my position. I will not return to this restaurant. I made a reservation on December 14 for the evening of December 26. We wanted to take our son who is visiting from Boston out for a special evening. We are local Santa Barbara residents who patronize Santa Barbara restaurants on a regular basis. My husband is 70 years old and I am 68 years old. We specifically requested outdoor seating as we had done only a couple of weeks before when we had been there with friends for dinner on 12/11 because we do not sit inside restaurants as a result of Covid. On 12/11 there was no issue. When my reservation was confirmed via text, it reminded me to dress warmly because it was chilly outside. When we arrived for our dinner reservation on time, we were told that we would have to sit inside and that no outside seating was available. We were told at that time for the very first time that outside seating was not guaranteed. There was outside seating available but we were told they were being saved for a large group of 12 and another group of six. Somehow these people were able to obtain guarantees for outdoor seating but we were not. Yes the food and service is good but our treatment as local Santa Barbara residents was abysmal. We left with no dinner and a ruined evening.

Absolutely terrible pickup experience. My husband placed the order and I went to pick it up. When I arrived they said they had no order. Then they said they found the order, handed me a bag and charged me $72. I looked in the bag and found three items that we didn't order. Then She said oh no the order actually wasn't placed. Oh okay, so you were going to give me random food I didn't order? Replaced the order in person and waited 20 min. Horrible experience.

totally classic selection of Californian food, our waiter was great, knowledgeable about the menu and made lots of recommendations. lobster gnocchi was phenomenal, cheesecake was nothing special. waiter forgot to fill out waters a couple times and took a minute to get cutlery out for our main meal. Whiskey sour was super thin and milky instead of having the thick egg whites on top, but he was very apologetic and refunded us.

The worst pizza experience I've had anytime anywhere. Went to pick up...was told 15 minutes. I stood close to the counter, checked in a couple times was assured it was "coming out of the oven". 55 minutes later I was handed two pizzas that were ice cold, not cut through, and yet somehow burnt. Just the absolute worst. Cook a frozen pizza, at least it'll be hot.

I was very cautious staying here with the reviews, but was pleasantly surprised! The front desk representative, Spencer, went above and beyond to make sure our stay went well. He greeted us with a smile and checked in with us when we were leaving the lobby. I cannot say enough about he made our experience. I don't give reviews often, but my experience with him set apart our experience. I would gladly come back because of how he made our experience! I cannot recommend this location enough!

Kyle's Kitchen is an unexpected gem in Santa Barbara. At first they look like some sort of chain restaurant like Eureka but no, they actually have really great quality fast food. We came during a Sunday and their daily deal was chicken sandwiches and I must say, I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious it was. I guess I wasn't expecting to have received such a quality crispy chicken sandwich given the sort of sub-par marketing and location. Needless to say, I have definitely come back and I am excited to try more things from their menu.

As an SB local, I have been hearing about Via Maestra 42 for years. To be honest, it never looked very interesting from the outside. Its got old fashioned Italian deli vibe, and is frankly kind of cluttered, it looks a bit like my grandmothers kitchen. I finally went in this evening after a rainy day spent with my mom for her birthday. The plan was Little Rainbow massage, Vices and Spices tea and then dinner, and since Via Maestra's was in the vicinity of the other two establishments, we decided to give it a try. IT WAS AWESOME! So simple but the closest to what i've had in Italy that you can find in Santa Barbara. I brought a bottle of wine beforehand to chill, and our waiter, Sal, had it ready when we arrived and uncorked and poured it like a professional sommelier. I was VERY impressed with his silent Champagne pop. Our Waiter Sal was extremely attentive, quick and brought good energy to our table each time we interacted with him. We ordered: -The Arugala and Bresaola Carpaccio -Linguini and Clams -Lasagna -Tiramisu I give everything 5/5. (I think the Tiramisu could be softer and wetter but as I am normally not the biggest fan of the desert, I will refrain from factoring my opinion on that specific dish and stick to my real favorite, Très Leches) I absolutely recommend this place for the food and although the ambiance isn't "Insta-worthey"for photos or "trendy", the people who work and dine here make it feel alive with warmth and "accogliente". Plus the food is good. No filters needed!

Great view, good food, decent prices. Their outdoor seating is amazing, but their indoor seating is also really very good, with plenty of natural light. Unfortunately they don't take reservations which makes it hard to plan a visit to this busy venue, so I'll withhold the 5th star until they start taking reservations. I suggest charging customers a no-show fee if they don't show up after making a reservation.

Solid bowls, always happy with the healthy breakfast bowl options. At this point it seems they are the only place in the neighborhood that sell non-greasy breakfast meals. The bowls can be a bit pricey and they're service can be a little faster.

Great simple sandwiches for really affordable prices. Recipe: Lettuce-tomato-mustard-mayo-patty/burger. That's it! That's as complicated a sandwich can be! I don't care exactly how a subway employee makes my sandwich. I just want to answer two questions in a sandwich shop: 1. What sandwich? and 2. Cash or card?

Great yellow curry, better than their Penang curry which is also really good. The place doesn't have great ambience, but take out food is really good. The tofu and chicken are always good, but the veggies are even better! The coconut curries are really my favorites. The salad can do with some more spice.

Los Agaves in SB was absolutely delicious! We loved the ease of ordering at the counter. And the outdoor dining area. We loved that there were specials available. In the patio there was plenty of space to eat. As well as heaters. The heaters were spaced out nicely. The food was incredible. We ordered ceviche, guacamole, salmon tacos, asteca taco, Jamaica and a pineapple margarita. The ceviche platter was huge and plentiful! It could have easily been enough for 4-6 people. The guacamole was flavorful and spilling over in the bowl, just delicious. The salmon tacos were complete with two huge chunks of salmon cooked to perfection! The steak taco was overflowing! We did not realize how huge the portions were when we ordered. That was the only reason for 4 not 5 stars. We totally over ordered, and we're wishing they had told the two of us that we had ordered enough. We pushed ourselves to finish because it was so tasty. I 100% recommend this restaurant but would caution on ordering too much food.

We love this place for many reasons. Great staff, salad bar, full bar, cozy atmosphere. And, we will come back. We have been sampling lobster around town. To date, the Tee-Off has the best in this area, though I have yet to try it at Reunion (the new East Beach grill). Every restaurant has its charms and distractions. I knew I was taking a chance with Chuck's char broiled lobster, but at $48 I figured they would be careful. It did not come out well (dry & blackened around edges...overcooked it seemed) , but the waitress, whom was very nice, disappeared after serving it. I kept trying to get her attention but she was gone. She did not even stop to chat when dropping off the check. I honestly felt she knew there were questions about the lobster that she was not interested in entertaining...visually it was overcooked...did she even look at it? We did not want to return the lobster--paid in full and left a 12% cash tip, normally we are 25% at this place. As foodies, we wanted to learn more. Food is one of our great interests, and even a bad meal can turn into something special if you learn something new. I really wanted to ask "Was this a good example of the best lobster you can get with char broil?" Regardless of the answer (yes or no), I would have learned something interesting. In my case, I learnt nothing, except to avoid that waitress.

I'm pleasantly surprised to see how well this place is doing despite the bad luck this building has received in the past. The food is absolutely delish and the service was super friendly and FAST! The only reason I'm giving it 4 out of 5 is for the pricing. It seems slightly high for what it is but overall, it's a super solid place!

Been waiting for a good boba place to come to Santa Barbara and this is it! The boba is always so perfectly squishy and I like how they're smaller so they don't get lodged in my straw. The only reason I give it 4 stars is I wished the milk tea drinks had more flavor and were not so watered down

The chilaquiles colorados are a MUST! It is difficult to find a place that can actually make decent chilaques and this place blows it out of the water. Absolutely took me back to my childhood when my mom would make them for breakfast. The rest of my party were also happy with their food. The only reason I don't give this spot a 5 star rating is because our water wasn't the best. He had zero personality straight business! Came to our table asked for our order then went his merry way, we saw him again once he brought our food and then the check. However, his helpers were on point and would refill our drinks and take our plates like they actually appreciated that they had a job. They made our experience better. If you stop by this place just ask for the younger guys to serve you. This place definitely has the potential of being a 5 star place, hopefully our next trip there the server is in a better mood.

Came here all the way from the Bay Area for a SoCal/Coastal CA trip and this place did not disappoint after doing research and having a friend suggest it. Got here early so we got seated pretty quickly. Service was amazing and fast as well. We ordered their clam chowder and I had never had clam chowder that creamy and smooth before. It was delicious. Even my mom said it was probably the best clam chowder she has ever had. We each ordered separate entrees in which my dad got the black bass, I got salmon, and my mom ordered fish and chips. The fish was super tasty from all our plates. However, if I were to make a small change, it's that the cilantro lime rice was pretty bland. I kinda expected it to be more flavorful. Otherwise the salmon for me was cooked perfectly. The spinach was actually better than the rice too since that was perfectly cooked and seasoned. Definitely a good place to try given Santa Barbara has a name for itself in terms of seafood.

Caruso's was amazing! I had my birthday dinner there last night and I cannot say enough about the delicious food and impeccable service. Our server, Dan, was professional, knowledgeable, super courteous and made our experience memorable. The Christmas decorations and a beautiful Santa Barbara sunset added to the whole experience for sure. This is what a true five star dining experience should be like! Can't wait to go back!

The place is easy to find, plenty of parking. Many great selections of freshly caught seafood available. We were there to get the fresh sea urchin. The uni is fresh and worth the $15. Great experience if you would like to try sea urchin fresh rather than from the box at sushi bar.

The shisido peppers, edamame, cauliflower, chasing summer or sunrise mock tail, the sake mule, vegetarian rolls, spicy fried rice, dragon and spider rolls were all fantastic. We had gluten allergies in our party and the waitress was incredibly patient going thru the entire menu explaining everything! Highly recommend!

The food here was fantastic. The garlic pepper tofu, drunken noodles, papaya salad, Tom ka soup, chicken satte, green curry, Penang curry were all very very good. The reason for the 3 stars is we have 2 people with gluten allergies and even though we asked we were not accurately told and care was not taken as both of these people really suffered. The Restaraunt needs to be MUCH MUCH MORE CAREFUL earning diners about hidden gluten in soya sauce or any other sauces so this experience is not repeated for other diners

Amazing hotel with such such comfy rooms. We had a iv and there was an area right outside the room where he could go in the morning..so so convenient..there was a small lawn with a gorgeous fountain right outside the room which was awesome. The GYM WAS BEYOND FANTASTIC!!! the views were great. Service was great at the coffee shop and the bar. Room service we got it in the lobby was great. THE YUCCA FRIES ARE A MUST Have!!! The chips and guacamole were totally yum! We got takeout in the lobby and hung out which was so fun! Having a fridge and microwave in the room was so helpful. We will definitely come back.

Go here - definitely! Been in Santa Barbara a couple days and have been here twice. One family member is gluten intolerant and they take special care to ensure no cross-contamination. From the regular menu, we tried the classic supreme on a thin crust which was solid, then a spinach pesto which was spectacular. The spinach pesto comes with homemade tomato sauce - get the pan crust which looked a heck of a lot like a deep dish to me! And on top of that, service was excellent
