epbG1pGaLFqBXEgN-3hsCg | oqZfo7TXGP98M6kDi_dYIA | TVX2a4bVuCE2VUIkiLdZrQ | 3 | I read the reviews and was expecting more but it was alright. Food was in a paper Togo container and the chicken tikka masala was so watery it leaked everywhere. It also lacked a lot of flavor in my opinion and was more watery than I've ever had. 20$ for 1 small container of masala and of rice. I feel like maybe they just had an off day but definitely not the best Indian I've had. Also when my boyfriend asked for utensils the guy didn't seem to care and only gave him one fork.. no knife no spoon just one loose fork, which ended up being useless because you needed a spoon instead of a fork because it was literally water. Hopefully they read their recent reviews and do what they can to fix it. | 2021-01-10 06:25:17 | Flavor of India | 3026 State St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93105 | 34.440613 | -119.729371 | Pakistani, Restaurants, Buffets, Seafood, Halal, Indian, Vegetarian, Vegan, Food, Salad, Desserts |
ZVtdQ99lngKl_Tpz4fCUzQ | Loxws58lxuEg_87epNWo1Q | SZU9c8V2GuREDN5KgyHFJw | 5 | I visited this place based on recommendation of my cuisine. Thanks to here and glad I did visited this place.
From what I experienced is that you can not go wrong with this place ever with anything. This place is really the perfect lunch by the seaside. The waiter was very helpful and knew the answer for each question we asked. All the dishes were very good, and the oysters were the best. Every ingredient here is of a high quality. | 2021-01-10 07:17:43 | Santa Barbara Shellfish Company | 230 Stearns Wharf | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.408715 | -119.685019 | Live/Raw Food, Restaurants, Seafood, Beer Bar, Beer, Wine & Spirits, Bars, Food, Nightlife |

We ordered two smoothies and added the probiotic supplement to both. There was only one staff member working when we came, but he was super efficient and was able to both take orders & make all the smoothies quickly so the wait wasn't long at all! Major props to him because more people started trickling in but he did it all with grace and speed.
Red banana smoothie: (aka strawberry banana) when you put banana in a smoothie, it pretty much drowns out all the other flavors haha so it was expected to have this one taste mainly like bananas, but the pink color was pretty and it tasted thick and creamy.
Tropical mango smoothie: this tastes like an orange creamsicle! You get that initial tartness from the mango followed by a creamy aftertaste. More sherbet-y tasting than our other smoothie and more tart than I expected a mango drink to taste like, but a good smoothie nonetheless. | 2021-01-10 08:04:04 | Blenders In The Grass | 720 State St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.419311 | -119.698519 | Fast Food, Food, Acai Bowls, Juice Bars & Smoothies, Restaurants |
DUa0TeKvYnv3HEvVTpVh8A | Wg3oiD4dMGnCidkEb-faiw | oGDGlUbOjHxmmCh8ZYcDCg | 5 | We met with friends and planned for bite out dinner. and one of them recommended this restaurant. Very good place for outdoor dining. Roomy, comfortable, and great service. It was a great green place that I just fall in love at the moment we entered. I couldn't imagen to have heavenly delicious food in ambiance like heaven, totally out of my expectations.
So we ate and enjoyed some truly exceptional food. We are absolutely satisfied with the service and food. Their staff was also very professional and friendly. The place was very clean and organized. It was a remarkable experience!
Highly recommend this spot it really worth a visit, you will become a regular once you experience your first visit here. | 2021-01-10 08:04:07 | The Lark | 131 Anacapa St, Ste A | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.414878 | -119.690279 | Nightlife, Bars, Cocktail Bars, Food, American (New), Desserts, Restaurants |
tytykJdMX8S_4LzbIemGzg | zJbIRkH-qlQ5IHO6-hpwVA | yPSejq3_erxo9zdVYTBnZA | 4 | What a MEAL!!
My boyfriend took me here because he tried their signature Agaves Burrito a couple years back when he visited and it was one of the most memorable meals from that trip. Let me say, the food here did not disappoint. We decided to treat ourselves and ordered 3 entrees, and our order came with the usual complimentary chips with 4 different types of sauces (red sauce, green sauce, pico de gallo, and a darker salty sauce I'm not familiar with!)
Agaves Burrito: They drenched that thing in their amazing chipotle sauce. It came with a side of rice and salad. You never usually expect much out of a side salad, but this one was actually pretty good! It had dried cranberries, tangerines, corn- and all the flavors worked very well together. As for the burrito itself, the fillings definitely were not distributed very well (one end of the burrito was all lettuce, and the other end was all the good stuff like shrimp/fish/guac,) but altogether it was very delicious.
Mole Enchiladas: All their sauces are a hit, and the mole is no exception. It has that beautiful smoky sweetness, and came with a side of rice and beans.
Chile Poblano Campestre: Looks-wise, not really sure what it is the way they presented it, but eating it was delicious! The description lists it as 2 corn tortillas with a poblano chile stuffed with meat and cheese, but in reality it was more like they cut the chile in half and flattened it, then put a layer of meat and cheese on top. | 2021-01-10 08:21:33 | Los Agaves | 600 N Milpas St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.427494 | -119.686624 | Mexican, Restaurants |
QcZpy1VN7W82L2g-abi03A | ZDCWEctaQHfJQT1sH_rMmA | vZG0BDPGDJxMGiXcGoVU6w | 5 | It's been awhile since I've tried this spot out, but I recall the food tasting great.
I'd gotten home after a super late night downtown and needed to eat dinner still. Didn't feel like driving and there really aren't many delivery restaurants open after 2am. I'd seen a friend advertise this spot on Instagram so figured I'd give them a go.
At the time, I had a promo code for a $5 off coupon which was helpful. I was able to order off of their website and it really didn't take long for the food to be delivered. It was still warm when I opened up the package and had a great char-grilled flavor. Really hit the spot.
Their menu appeared pretty vast. I'd try out another of their items the next time I found myself in that sort of predicament! | 2021-01-10 16:23:27 | SB Munchiez | 4427 Hollister Ave | Santa Barbara | CA | 93110 | 34.439706 | -119.770838 | Restaurants, Nightlife, Burgers, American (Traditional), American (New), Fast Food, Sandwiches, Food Delivery Services, Food |
lTZF5UzUo9OAKV1SUh65MA | zPd93dylT2_boXboZtGLxg | TVX2a4bVuCE2VUIkiLdZrQ | 4 | It's too bad that they can't be open for in person dining, because the ambiance inside the restaurant looks great! The food (tikka masala) wasn't overly flavorful, but still good. 35 minute wait for take out on a Saturday night. Took away a star as the flavor could definitely be bumped up, but I would be back again and try other dishes. | 2021-01-10 18:10:49 | Flavor of India | 3026 State St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93105 | 34.440613 | -119.729371 | Pakistani, Restaurants, Buffets, Seafood, Halal, Indian, Vegetarian, Vegan, Food, Salad, Desserts |
YZwga6QrSX3PxIyafCr9jQ | zPd93dylT2_boXboZtGLxg | bLnC1_-Kd_Z5qhHNQXCUfQ | 5 | This is by far my favorite poke place in the area! They give good sized portions and as many toppings as you would like. They are very attentive to quality and customer service. Food always tastes fresh. So thankful that they're still open during the Pandemic! | 2021-01-10 18:12:54 | Choppa Poke | 7000 Hollister Ave, Ste 102 | Goleta | CA | 93117 | 34.430393 | -119.872225 | Restaurants, Asian Fusion, Food, Poke, Hawaiian, Seafood |
sbSb-8MddkHkETGf8Tq6mQ | zPd93dylT2_boXboZtGLxg | tf6S06LD09IFDHUpOPqPaw | 5 | This is the best place in SB for tacos! They have many options so there's something for everyone. The triple play is a great deal. Also a bonus is that it's next to the batting cages, so makes a great date out! | 2021-01-10 18:14:42 | East Beach Tacos | 226 S Milpas St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93103 | 34.418889 | -119.67541 | Korean, Restaurants, American (New), Mexican, Tacos, Nightlife, Fast Food, Bars |
Q14q85heOycSJQ5zN-y2Xw | zPd93dylT2_boXboZtGLxg | aOLFlIQibMg_lT2X4qKM2g | 5 | I love this coffee shop! They have strong coffee with great flavor. I've tried a regular latte and dirty chai and have been very pleased with both! They are also friendly and adhere to all Covid safety protocols. Will definitely become a regular! | 2021-01-10 18:16:23 | Dean: A Coffee Shop | 6100 Hollister Ave, Unit 1 | Goleta | CA | 93117 | 34.434588 | -119.835644 | Food, Coffee Roasteries, Restaurants, Coffee & Tea, Salad, Sandwiches |

2eukWKvH8wpflZRizQxq9w | 4DyMRBKrokax6d8LCI3GAw | 9xW7LsJpyhVZFRb6z9xorg | 5 | After relocating to Santa Barbara years ago, I had always heard raving reviews of Ca' Dario downtown. Still 'til this day I have not made it to that location, however, I HAVE been to the newer Goleta location countless times.
Each and every time I have received excellent:
-Customer service...
The two brothers who work here remember my partner's and my names, plus always smile while carrying on a friendly conversation.
-Food...
Their food is absolutely spectacular and is easily at the top of my list for Italian cuisine in Santa Barbara County. Deliciousness starts with the appetizers and continues through to dessert. Their seafood dishes are always fresh and pasta cooked perfectly al dente. Oh and their thin crust pizzas are not to be missed either!
-Ambiance...
Given the strip mall corner unit location, you wouldn't know the interior is as large as it is! They have minimal yet elegant decor, dim lighting, and a lovely outdoor patio with a fountain.
Most recently, my family took advantage of Ca' Dario's New Year's Eve pre-fixe meals for $85. It came with a small plate of choice, lasagna, main entree, and an included bottle of Dard wine. Deals like this, along with what I've always said keep us coming back. | 2021-01-10 18:53:52 | Ca' Dario Goleta | 250 Storke Rd, Unit B | Goleta | CA | 93117 | 34.42954 | -119.869271 | Pizza, Nightlife, Italian, Bars, Restaurants, Wine Bars |
mea5PAXgQvk-5yRxY-Z6yg | oYPlj1HkfcAqHwLvaIuicQ | uGo0TCVNOcDQxMArUU0Jrw | 5 | Ok, half my family is from New Orleans, so I have spent more than a lot of time there. My main reason for visiting New Orleans is the amazing food. I ate here this morning and it is TOP TIER! I got the jambalaya with eggs breakfast, and it was amazing! I expected maybe one small shrimp and a tiny bit of chicken and sausage. But no! It is full if good quality shrimp and meats! And the perfect amount of spiciness. I am a visitor to this town, but I will be making many return visits, just for this place! I can't wait to try their gumbo and shrimp po- boy! I'm so excited to have discovered this. Also, my daughter got a vegan breakfast burrito, and said it was top notch!! | 2021-01-10 19:11:18 | Cajun Kitchen Cafe | 6831 Hollister Ave, Ste A | Goleta | CA | 93117 | 34.43 | -119.867149 | Restaurants, Breakfast & Brunch, Cafes, Cajun/Creole |

zER-rVsc-onTwkEyLRMkUA | qvoDe7l_dbfP6dzkLvMNOg | FEBwxZMEpxRwVXx9Fm0XZw | 1 | We were so excited to get some food for the first time from this place, but it was a total disappointment. We waited for over an hour, and thought food would be great. The food was cold and they forgot my toast and they also forgot my father in law's avocados and all caps on the California Benedict. I don't think I will even pass by this place again!!!! | 2021-01-10 20:39:17 | Chad's | 216 W Cabrillo Blvd | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.409941 | -119.692262 | Diners, Salad, American (Traditional), Breakfast & Brunch, Restaurants |
N_9HDuk5MvnmgicHpJLm1A | w-lleTO3vlUk-b8dZYOkMA | FEBwxZMEpxRwVXx9Fm0XZw | 1 | Okay, first of all, what the hell. We waited over an hour for our food on my step dads 50th birthday. They didn't make any of our food correctly, in addition I think this lockdown has clearly made a lot of people tweak if you think this food actually good. The potatoes were the best part about everything. Who makes a breakfast burrito with only eggs? Will never be returning, service and food are next to trash. | 2021-01-10 20:39:43 | Chad's | 216 W Cabrillo Blvd | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.409941 | -119.692262 | Diners, Salad, American (Traditional), Breakfast & Brunch, Restaurants |

DELISH. $32.99 New York Strip. Baked potato upcharge.
I missed Chuck's and no more salad bar obviously. Bummer.
Best brown bread anywhere.
Just love this place and they even included those signature mints with the meal.

And people can no longer eat in the parking lot here. NOT enclosed. Just a tarp overhead.
It's tragic and criminal.
Sunshine is every bit as good as Max's. One of the cooks stayed on and the salmon benedict is to die for.
The home fries are not impressive. But the huevos rancheros wonderful.
The omelets are great too.
I haven't tried the hash browns because they are more fattening but maybe they're better than the underwhelming home fries.
SUPPORT SUNSHINE CAFE during lockdown.
Breakfast burrito fine but not my favorite thing. | 2021-01-10 21:34:26 | SB Sunshine Cafe | 3514 State St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93105 | 34.440656 | -119.738781 | Restaurants, American (New), Breakfast & Brunch, Diners |

puanK-BmKFbJg7eVGztnpg | Cmxz02khzqJ5bWoks9kYLg | bPVPZeqMuYtU_yGCb4P-jg | 5 | The best place in the Public Market! Would the Market have made it without this restaurant holding it down since the beginning?
They are consistent after all of these years and provide a concise menu with something for everyone. They are happy to oblige with any dietary needs - they have *always* noted, when I ask for no fish sauce, that the fried tofu in the dish is fried in pan that might have the fish sauce, in case I would prefer the unfried tofu. That level of detail and care for customers is outstanding. Flavors are amazing, and watching there quick and careful prep while cooking is great. Also love how clean the seating area is, and seeing their extreme cleaning routine at the end of the night as the close.
Their takeout during Covid has been fast and consistent and delicious, but I can't wait to get back to the olden days and slurp my noodles straight out of their bowls!

2 you can have regular Dijon instead of the honey mustard. Just ask
3. Had to remind them second time about Mayo. They skipped it by accident on first order of the sandwich. Normally comes without asking they said
4. O stars for letting customers remove masks. A regular customer it seemed kept taking his mask of. Entered without it. Put it on. Then before leaving takes it off.

The butter salad is a little bit pricey, $11 for some lettuce and apples but it was very refreshing. I like the dressing a lot too, especially the lightness spicy flavor in it.

I keep hoping they're going to get as good as the Mesa Burger location on the Mesa but not yet. They told me the burgers would be ready in 15 to 20 minutes.

amlpZyVfk48l7qnm2wZh3w | 2XrZvaRJW9SThrdRRkfsgw | E1R-xslwl7XeTN5lQ7mWPg | 5 | This place is such a hidden gem and super popular with the locals. Good food, always cooked perfectly. I often like to get the specials. One time it was a posole (AMAZING) and another time it was fried chicken with mashed potatoes and brussel sprouts. Their fried chicken is honestly one of the best Ive had. The breading Tastes healthier but nice and crispy. The chicken is of high quality and perfectly cooked.
Some of my favorite items-
1- fig burger. Astounding. The goat cheese pairs so well with the argula, carmelized onions and fig preserves.
2- the kale chicken salad with fried chicken. Honestly so bomb. I don't even like kale but the maple mustard vinaigrette is delicious. You can tell they make their dressings in-house. Ive had this salad with grilled chicken and its also super delicious. I normally don't like berries/dried cherries in my salads (I'm a savory gal) but Im so glad I gave this a shot because now I get it all the time and always crave it. Arguably one of the best salads in Santa Barbara.
3- cheeseburger eggrolls- seems unusual before you try them but tasty.
4- brussel sprouts
5-fries - my boyfriend refuses to share his so I always gave to order my own. Perfectly crispy everytime. Dip them in their Rosemary Aioli.
6- mashed potatoes with rosemary gravy
7- anything with their fried chicken (obviously)
8- THE COOKIE DESSERT.
9- the little kitchen burger (just a classic.)
10- chicken tikka masala (so flavorful and good comfort food)
11 - mac n cheese
...I can probably go on and on. I'm somewhat of a food quality snob and this place is always consistently good. I've never had anything I didn't love here. The chefs here clearly know how to cook everything perfectly.

VyL9kxksOrD196oRdMbUPQ | U3NhX_EIA6ZjFzRiCDMlOw | QLHgjBHBoeIUoEvIPvjHnw | 1 | I went there tonight for my first cheat meal in a while, I called ahead as it was dinner time for my order. They quoted me 15-20 minutes for fries, completely fine as I knew it was dinner time and probably busy... I show up to my fries still not ready at the 20 minute mark, and had to wait and extra 25 minutes more for my fries. This is unacceptable to wait 45 minutes as it's only fries and I called ahead and got a quoted time. Why quote so low if it's not going to be met?? Very unprofessional. Food may be good but not worth the terrible customer service.

This place's chowder is more on the thick side (more roux-y), yet the soup is light enough that you don't feel bloated or heavy after eating a whole bowl like you normally do! There were a lot of clams in our serving as you can see in the photo (though I didn't notice them at first since most sunk to the bottom). There was also a good amount of celery for added texture, and an order came with a bag of oyster crackers.
We also got the oyster shooters- oysters with cocktail sauce and a bit of grated parmesan cheese on top, served in a sauce container! This one wasn't as much of a hit as the chowder; I feel like there was too much cocktail sauce to taste the oyster, but on the bright side I'd rather have too much sauce than not enough! | 2021-01-11 04:21:04 | Santa Barbara Shellfish Company | 230 Stearns Wharf | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.408715 | -119.685019 | Live/Raw Food, Restaurants, Seafood, Beer Bar, Beer, Wine & Spirits, Bars, Food, Nightlife |

Located in the Paseo Nuevo shopping center so close to State St, it was a convenient stop!
Pickles & Swiss sandwich: 4/5. Gotta order the namesake, amiright? I added avocado to mine, and though the sandwich was great and had a decent amount of meat, cheese, sauce, and pickled vegetables, I literally laughed when I unwrapped the sub and saw how the avocado was slapped on the outside of the sandwich, with no attempt to layer it inside the baguette with the rest of the fillings. That interesting part aside, it was a good sandwich and I liked the aoili.
Spicy Chop & Toss salad: 5/5. Probably the best salad I've ever had. Would definitely recommend! Warning- if you're sensitive to spice, I would suggest getting a different salad because this thing is fireeee (taste-wise and spice level-wise, at least on the normal scale for a salad.) The only downside for this salad was that the chickpeas were bland, but mixing it makes it a bit better!

I worked for the Arroyo family as a college student when they first started downtown in 1999. I can honestly say that they have stayed at the top of their game with their commitment to fresh, excellent food and amazing service! I took my hubby, a front lines healthcare infectious diseases physician, to enjoy dinner on the patio this summer and he was impressed with their covid protocols! He was also impressed with the ensalada de casa and burrito majado he ordered! I went back at least 6 times this summer while visiting SB for much needed mini getaways during the pandemic. We crave this food and try to eat as much as we can when we're in the area! Some of our favorites include tacos a mano, any of the burritos, and of course their homemade guacamole, salsa, and hand cut chips! They have great margaritas too and make a skinny marg that beats all. It's just the best food and our whole family looks forward to dining here. Sending lots of love and appreciation to Tony and his team! You all truly excel at what you do!

OyPDty4c50PeVByClLiesg | zJbIRkH-qlQ5IHO6-hpwVA | vyOVT4bcW227LRwJGHTeSw | 5 | The ambience of this place was so cute! I love the lights they have up outside and all the plants. I could imagine this would've been a real nice place to kick back and enjoy a nice meal with friends when outdoor dining was still allowed.
As for the food itself, I wanted to mention first that I think it's super helpful that the to go order came with a little sheet of paper that had illustrations of the empanada shapes and the filling so you know which is which! The crust for all were fresh, warm and flaky. Here are my thoughts on what we ordered, from most to least favorite:
Serrano: you can't go wrong with prosciutto + mozzarella combo. So cheesy.
Hongos: I'm a big mushroom fan so I really liked this mushroom and mozzarella one!
Carne: Flavorful and moist, more of a traditional empanada if you want the og thing
Suiza: I think the bitterness of the swiss chard got to me, so I didn't enjoy this one as much but it was my boyfriend's favorite
Pollo: We both agreed this was a miss. It needed more seasoning or flavor, and the shredded chicken inside was dry.
Overall, it was great getting to pick and choose what empanadas we wanted! The staff was very friendly and upbeat, and the food was super fresh. I love cheese and all of them had a good amount to make me one happy gal- don't forget to check in on Yelp to get a free empanada with a purchase of a half dozen. | 2021-01-11 06:29:31 | Buena Onda | 724 E Haley St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93103 | 34.424641 | -119.686693 | Event Planning & Services, Latin American, Caterers, Food, Restaurants, Empanadas, Argentine |

I had the Spicy Crispy Chicken Black Garlic ramen and I was more than happy with the whole experience. The broth alone is incredible.
I called in with a few questions to customize my ramen to my preference and the customer service was spot on. I arrived 8 minutes later, there is a table at the door with sanitizer and a bell to let the kitchen know you've arrived, I was right on time and my order was fresh and hot! Utensils and napkins in the bag so eating in the car or outside is convenient. Pro Tip: use the bowl lid as a plate (or use the bag if you drop your lid like I did ) to split the egg with your spoon and put aside the crispy tempura chicken so it doesn't get soggy, add it as you eat. Enjoy!
In Japanese culture, you eat with eyes as well, so every meal here is beautifully crafted.

PJUnk1DXT8q3SA-9QzShMA | _pNerxa8_oa2rGSsK8sckw | 12Gc4OFQ-WAW0fAk2hRZuQ | 5 | I finally copped a box of these doughnuts. I've been trying to get a box of these doughnuts for weeks after seeing all the instabuzz and tasty photos. Be aware they sell out quickly once the pre-order link goes live Thursdays at noon. It's like the experience of buying hot concert tickets (back when we could see live music :'(
The packaging is as nice as a box that would contain a MacBook. The food gods sang as I opened the beautiful box which was lined with reflective foil and contained four perfectly crafted mochi donuts. My husband, son, and I fought over who would be getting the next bite. The shape of the donut lends itself to breaking off perfectly portioned bits.
The flavors today were Thai tea and Oreo, fruity pebbles, dalgona coffee, and mango. The frostings were incredibly fresh and not overly sweet. Little details like the sprinkling of chili powder on the mango donut indicate the culinary care that must go into inventing these delicacies! The texture of the dough was perfectly chewy and light. We also picked up a pint of Creaminal Thai tea and Oreo ice cream. It made for an excellent accompaniment to the donuts.
Best part was the kindness and top notch customer service displayed by the donut purveyor. The cherry (or sprinkles?) on top of the whole experience. | 2021-01-11 07:18:25 | Kin Bakeshop | 3404 State St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93105 | 34.440627 | -119.73678 | Pop-Up Restaurants, Restaurants, Food, Donuts |

I've come to recognize Jeannine's for their quality products and quality service. Was happy to see that the tradition has remained steady at this new location.
The shop is small and is located in a newer plaza. Parking can be tight with the neighboring grocery store but I've never had an issue parking near the CVS and walking a bit.
The interior is decorated well and offers a full view into the kitchen which I felt was pretty neat. I ordered a few scones (they are the very best), and these certainly lived up to their standard. Flaky, soft, fresh, so good. You can order items to-go or eat in-house, although the rules have been altered with Covid.

First a few years back, I was finishing up a night run and wanted to grab some dinner on the way back. I arrived 10 minutes before closing and the cashier said they were closed and not accepting orders. This is unacceptable, if you're open you're open.
Second earlier this year, I called in an order for their burger and fries (expecting the Klassic Kyle). I picked up the burger and left and when I got home I found out it was a plain burger w nothing on it.
Lastly earlier this week, I was walking by and decided I wanted to try their chicken sandwich. I walked in and was first in line, and was not even acknowledged for over five minutes and their were two cashiers working. I ended up just leaving without a "hey it'll be a few minutes" or anything.

Unfortunately that day happened to be during a heat wave limiting how much time we were going to spend outdoors.
The fusion aspect of Blue Owl was what intrigued me but found out that my first choice of the red curry tofu and shrimp sandwich was medium on the spice level because of the red curry sauce. Since I only tolerate mild, sweating more from spicy food was not a good idea eating outside when it was going to reach 100. Womp, womp. Although not fusion as I wanted, I did inhale a delicious eggplant sandwich with a Thai Ice Tea and had a bite of a just as delicious pork banh mi.
What really impressed me was our server noticed me trying to fish out a flower that fell into my Thai Ice Tea from the tree I was sitting under and he actually offered to bring me a new one. Since I was already halfway done, I did say half would be sufficient. Now that is attentive service. | 2021-01-11 19:58:44 | The Blue Owl | 5 W Canon Perdido | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.420002 | -119.700559 | Food, American (New), Thai, Restaurants, Asian Fusion, Desserts, Cafes, Sandwiches, Caterers, Event Planning & Services |

They give you options to do a "bowl" or smoothie. I say bowl but they put it in a cup which I have never seen before. I think it makes it a little more difficult to eat in a cup...
I got a bowl and they have unlimited toppings which I really enjoyed. I got almonds, strawberries, coconut, chia pudding, collagen, and granola in mine (they have gluten free granola which is pretty cool!) I must say they didn't give too much fruit and they layer your toppings which I found a bit odd. All the collagen powder was at the bottom and I had to mix it in...I really enjoyed the coconut flakes though.
The acai itself is really fresh and you can taste it. The texture is a little softer than I'm used to with acai bowls but it tastes amazing! It doesn't taste artificial at all or too overly sweet - just nice and refreshing.
I must say the price point is a bit high for the small portion size. I guess you're paying for that freshness!

I have been working my way around the menu so this time around I got the Tropical Guava; a combination of guava juice, strawberries, banana, non-fat frozen yogurt, and pineapple sherbet. After my first sip, my initial thoughts about the flavor profile was that it reminded me of fruit flavored candies. After a couple more, the tropical guava was definitely similar to the flavor profile of a pink starburst. The staff worked quickly and efficiently; got in and out within a couple of seconds.
Don't forget to pick a supplement since you get one for free.
I also decided to grab a T-shirt since I'm such a fan boy for this chain. If you didn't already know, you can buy a T-shirt for $12! I was unable to find pictures of it online but it's the same ones the staff members wear. Makes a nice souvenir.
Tl;dr: If you're into fruity candy flavors, I would recommend getting the Tropical Guava. | 2021-01-12 00:11:59 | Blenders In the Grass | 1046 Coast Village Rd, Ste F | Santa Barbara | CA | 93108 | 34.421967 | -119.650188 | Juice Bars & Smoothies, Food, Restaurants, Vegetarian |

My first time here was last year, pre-covid, for a friend's birthday dinner. The owner was so kind, funny, and generous and gave my friend a discount on the total bill! He also gave us different boba flavors to try, free of charge. The food is incredible, and I am a strong believer of the fact that Naan Stop has the best boba in IV. Coming from the South Bay Area, I've had my fair share of good Indian food and good boba, and I can safely say Naan Stop won me over in both categories.
I recently moved back and decided to swing by earlier today. The owner was just as charismatic and awesome to talk to. He gave me recommendations on what to try, and even gave me and my friend Jasmine Milk Tea to try. I got the special Chicken Curry with rice, garlic naan, and a blended Taro boba. He suggested I try it with coconut, and it is SO good. Portion sizes are huge considering the price.
I'm definitely going to be a regular here. Support local businesses!!! | 2021-01-12 00:32:22 | Naan Stop | 966 Embarcadero Del Mar | Isla Vista | CA | 93117 | 34.411648 | -119.856909 | Indian, Food, Restaurants, Bubble Tea, Pakistani, Fast Food |

My husband got the RB hamburger with bacon egg and onion strings. He said it was juicy and delicious. Not to mention HUGE! He also had the sweet potato fries. Definitely two could share this burger. It was nice to see the restaurant didn't skimp on the to go order they provided big portions.
I ordered the Chinese Ginger Chicken salad and it was very delicious as well. It had purple and green cabbage, carrots, mandarin orange, green onion, fried wontons and almonds. All the components really worked together. The chicken was very tasty with a garlic herb marinate. The dressing is mostly ginger in flavor and I love ginger...so it was one of the best salads I have ever had.
Highly recommend and we will be back!!! | 2021-01-12 00:57:10 | Rincon Brewery | 5065 Carpinteria Ave | Carpinteria | CA | 93013 | 34.398372 | -119.518002 | Pubs, Bars, Food, American (Traditional), American (New), Nightlife, Breweries, Brewpubs, Restaurants |
hRi16ZDhWvqg_Gc2ea7tJA | 5Q10cMGKw2f8oKzdYZO1Jg | z9-8KvMAlVK46De-G3sNJQ | 4 | I have been thinking about Blenders ever since it hit my tongue a few years ago. So naturally the first thing I would do when I was back in Santa Barbara was to get another taste of Blenders. Once I arrived to this location, I noticed that there was already a short queue. There was only one employee working but he did a great job getting the line to move quickly.
Wanting to try something new, I ordered the Red Banana because of the other reviews I read on this Yelp page. The Red Banana is a combination of non-fat milk, strawberries, banana, and ice milk. First impressions of the drink - only banana, where strawberry? To be fair, whenever a banana is introduced in a smoothie, it usually overpowers the other ingredients that were added. The drink was still good: typical smoothie textures with a light but sweet banana flavor.
I was able to try the Tropical Mango, which is a combination of mango juice, peaches, banana, non-fat frozen yogurt, and orange sherbet. Man, the best way to describe this drink is that it taste exactly like an Orange Bang/ Orangesicle. So if that's what you're into, definitely get this drink.
There's tons of street parking around State St with a limit of 75 mins. Alternatively you can park at Paseo Nuevo and walk over as well.
Tl;dr: quick working staff, pass on banana smoothies unless you like banana, tropical mango taste like orange bang/ orangesicle. | 2021-01-12 01:20:16 | Blenders In The Grass | 720 State St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.419311 | -119.698519 | Fast Food, Food, Acai Bowls, Juice Bars & Smoothies, Restaurants |

Today I needed frozen peas and there were none in the freezer case plus the freezer case was a mess. There needs to be a manager in front for answering questions. I recently moved to Montecito and can't believe that Montecito residence would put up with this Vons!

NMyCC1JGT_ucXgkA-pGPjA | zJbIRkH-qlQ5IHO6-hpwVA | SYHDOHRNAH-2xsw3XB5qbg | 4 | I've missed the brunch experience- but ordering pickup through DoorDash for now will have to do! Pick up was super quick and easy, I just walked up to the ordering window and they finished making the food about 10 minutes before estimated ready time!
Rollex: everything breakfasty/brunchy in a wrap! Eggs, bacon, avocado, and a tomato sauce. The flatbread it was on reminded me of a flour tortilla, and it had a light layer of grease on the outside (so wash your hands and be prepared to get your hands a little messy!) The Rollex was very enjoyable, my favorite out of the two things we ordered. I split it with my boyfriend, but would probably be quite content with the portion size if I ate it all by myself.
Like-a-tiger: a healthier approach to an omlette, filled with zucchini, mushroom, onions, and spinach! I was a bit disappointed with how small the actual omlette/egg portion was (about the size of my hand), but it tasted good. The potatoes were a bit soft instead of crisp even though we ate in the car right after picking up the food, but I liked how they sautéed onions with it as well. Saving the best portion of this entree for last- the tomatoes!!! They were sweet yet somehow savory at the same time, and gave little bursts of flavor whenever I ate one. | 2021-01-12 02:10:13 | The Shop Kitchen | 730 N Milpas St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93103 | 34.429169 | -119.688921 | American (New), Food, Restaurants, Coffee & Tea, Breakfast & Brunch |

The Avocado Bhel was crunchier than expected, but tasty. The Cauliflower Bezul was super good. Creamy and the cauliflower is so tender. I would eat it fast though because once it cools it gets a bit odd.
The Kofta was probably the best thing we ordered. They were kinda like meat balls and the sauce was warm and delicious. I would order that again in a heartbeat.
The dosa was a bit greasy which I think is just a byproduct of ordering takeout. Not a bad dishes and each sauce was good in its own way, but maybe save it for when we can dine in person.
Overall really tasty food. Definitely take advantage of the free delivery they are offering if you order online. They were quick and food was just as we'd wanted! | 2021-01-12 03:32:32 | Masala Spice Indian Cuisine | 5796 Calle Real | Goleta | CA | 93117 | 34.441667 | -119.825761 | Vegan, Vegetarian, Restaurants, Indian |

Take your anti covid signs down. Believe it or not, it's not a conspiracy. There are people dying from covid at cottage, literally a few blocks up the street from your business.
Remember, you sell bread.
That's all you do. Not too important compared to the grand scheme of events we are currently dealing with. Find a way to help the community rather than trying to defy health orders, putting your own customers at risk. Clearly you don't see the message you are sending to your own customers, "hey, come buy some bread, have some soup, stay a while, don't worry, you won't get covid here and we don't care if you do get it."

Revolver makes everything from scratch and has simple yet delicious ingredients. We love getting the pepperoni and the white pizza.

I asked about one of the new dishes (I did not ask to taste it because I know better they're not allowed to let you taste nor are there allowed to let you taste food at any other restaurants these days! Just wanted to get that in there for the guy who posted below thinking it's because they're cheap it's definitely not allowed currently just as you can't use your favorite hot food bars in local markets!) Jose was great he was very, enrgetic and accommodating and the dish he suggested was the new Angus steak dish and it was actually very good there was one piece of meat that was a little chewy but the rest of it was very tasty as well I would like to give props to the young lady who checked me out she was also very nice and her name was Cyan. | 2021-01-12 05:19:01 | Panda Express | 131 N.

Service is great, typical Ritz, location is 5 stars it's own slice of paradise away from it all surrounded by natural beauty. Pools are heated and salt with reservations required.
With the current mandate/precautions, which is appreciated. food is to go and or room-service. The drop had great lattes and breakfast sandwiches (they also have picnic baskets) and the room service could use some updating or flavor. Had lunch and breakfast both tasted alright, you can also order Angel Oak via room service for dinner.
CONS: Dated and worn, I mean it's the Ritz Carlton, and i feel like with a refresh and update it would be upto par with the Ritz standard. | 2021-01-12 05:28:43 | The Ritz-Carlton Bacara, Santa Barbara | 8301 Hollister Ave | Santa Barbara | CA | 93117 | 34.434545 | -119.920673 | Restaurants, Beauty & Spas, American (New), Event Planning & Services, Hotels, Massage, Resorts, Day Spas, Hotels & Travel, Venues & Event Spaces |

We ordered one each of the beef and salmon pot pies, comfort food in a time when we all need some comfort. The beef was lean and plentiful in a pie with peas, carrots, potatoes, and a rich sauce, topped with a buttery puff pastry lid. Divine. They even let us take it away unbaked so we could take it from our oven hot and bubbly. Accompanied by fresh green salads, homemade balsamic dressing, and a wonderful berry pie for dessert, the food was plentiful enough for two meals.

I feel like the employees are usually newer/training and the line is very slow. I don't have time for this on my lunch break. They also give super small portions unless you ask for more or double. And double seems to me like a regular sized portion. I have also seen lots of comments regarding hard, uncooked rice. This has not happened to me but it did happen to a coworker of mine recently. Also, I went in the other day and a customer wasn't asked for his child who was older to put on a mask until they were being rung up already about to leave. They should expect that of everyone old enough to wear a mask as soon as they walk through the door. If you have the time, go to the one in La Cumbre.

I ordered first thing in the Am via their web-site for an 11a pickup. Was ready to go when I got there. | 2021-01-12 23:11:30 | South Coast Deli- Carrillo | 10 E Carrillo St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.421702 | -119.70133 | Salad, Sandwiches, Restaurants, Delis |

They have lots of choices and each of the ones I've tried are very good, extremely hearty (two servings for me). For take out they package the noodles and broth separately so they don't get soggy!

yVkcM13ogr1-pvZIrNmjJg | TNWB8Q8Il5ws5Zlkfyj4jA | Wy8Hswf2cLQGRZN6armkag | 1 | I normally like Jack in the Box in a pinch, but this location is horrible!' The food occasionally gets messed up (which sucks during COVID bc you can't immediately get it resolved like you could if you ate there), but a few screw-ups are to be expected in any food establishments. What makes this place horrible is the "service." This isn't the first time an employee at this location lacked civility, but the employee working the drive-through on a recent Thursday night took the cake. Not just bad service, she SCREAMED at my 70 year old mother, and told her to get out of line bc the employee couldn't find our order number, which we read off to her. TO GO WHERE?!?? They locked the doors (at 8:00 at night)! We used the app and had an order number. She absolutely refused to even look at our order number. We left, and went to Deja Vu.
I've worked at the lowest levels of fast food, to actually owning a fast food place here in SB for nearly a decade. I am definitely NOT a "the customer is always right" type of person. And I definitely understand that you never know what someone is going through, so I could just chalk it up to a bad day.
But this was so over the top ... (and, as I said, other employees have acted similarly, just not this extreme).
TO THE MANAGER/OWNER: what's worse than having this employee(s)? Knowing full well you have problems (judging by the Yelp reviews, this isn't the first time someone complained), and you have chosen to do nothing about it. You either don't read the reviews, or you don't care, and I don't know what frustrates me more.
The next day, I just really wanted another burger after melanoma surgery. Yep, we got on the freeway to Carl's Jr., even though Jack in the Box is literally a two minute commute from my front door if you hit every red light.
This location isn't bad per se; it's just in need of entirely new management. | 2021-01-13 00:58:50 | Jack in the Box | 6875 Hollister Ave | Goleta | CA | 93117 | 34.429897 | -119.868783 | Restaurants, Fast Food, Mexican, Tacos, Burgers, Breakfast & Brunch |
UVj7QP9ATFAlyXCs_wvVUg | ie1EZWnNRs5TNeQTJY6PAA | DD3TxygdxBxKh9gbjCuLDA | 1 | Rincon Beach Club is refusing to fully or partially refund any deposits even though Santa Barbara / Carpinteria is currently legally prohibiting weddings from taking place. They are incredibly inflexible regarding these circumstances. They offer the option for a later booking date, but are charging $5000-7000 more for a wedding on the later date. Their wedding contract and business policies are unconscionable. I would highly recommend that you avoid Carol and Rincon Beach Club at all costs and go with a more professional, fair wedding vendor. | 2021-01-13 01:07:24 | Events By Rincon | 3805 Santa Claus Ln | Carpinteria | CA | 93013 | 34.406402 | -119.547801 | Restaurants, American (Traditional), Food Delivery Services, Caterers, Venues & Event Spaces, Cocktail Bars, Bars, Wedding Planning, Nightlife, Food, Event Planning & Services |
O_LNeCuR-jDf4eKO21OBUg | FPSmLAW14ks_dOukXCqvlA | SZU9c8V2GuREDN5KgyHFJw | 4 | they have an amazing location, right at the end of the pier. and parking is equally amazing, you can thunder your car down the slatted boardwalk till you reach nearly the end and park right there, a few steps from the restaurant!
due to covid, there was no indoor dining. they had a nice lady perched on a high chair right at the entrance and taking orders. she was friendly, knowledgeable and efficient- an asset to the company.
pricing was ok. pretty up there but you're paying for the location and seafood. to be expected. at least they comp parking!
they did forget (completely) a few items, so we had to walk back to request our omitted items. they graciously and expeditiously gave it to us.
bundle up! it gets windy and chilly. | 2021-01-13 01:13:28 | Santa Barbara Shellfish Company | 230 Stearns Wharf | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.408715 | -119.685019 | Live/Raw Food, Restaurants, Seafood, Beer Bar, Beer, Wine & Spirits, Bars, Food, Nightlife |
GHau-RgPH6SwBfDS-i5dFQ | TNWB8Q8Il5ws5Zlkfyj4jA | P_QAD4_iMgqTaWd5On_n3g | 2 | I LOVE Thai food! And my recent order of Green Curry chicken was delightful. BUT, and it's a big but and I cannot lie, the three others in my party all had screw-ups with their order to the point that they would have been returned if we weren't all starving and lacked the desire to spend gas and time to return to the restaurant. COVID SUCKS!! If it wasn't for COVID, this expensive order would have been returned.
Given this experience, I probably won't order again from TAP until indoor dining returns and I can return food.
I would comment that it's over priced, but I recently moved back from 20 years in LA, so I was spoiled (the competition for Thai in LA wouldn't support these prices). But really, the price is based on what the market will bear, and I haven't had any better or any worse Thai food in Santa Barbara.
TO TAP: I would suggest having a "heat" scale based on 1-10. A "1" you could serve a baby. A "5" is average Thai spicy (not American spicy), and 10 is the hottest you can serve without violating laws or being required to acquire additional insurance. Add a sentence "we really don't suggest going above a 4 unless you're familiar with really authentic Thai" or something similar
I had a 7 one time based on a similar scale (in Vegas). I ended up having to see a Urologist the next day because what goes in must come out, but I felt blissfully enlightened (if also on fire) while I ate it. | 2021-01-13 02:08:41 | TAP Thai Cuisine | 3130 State St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93105 | 34.440696 | -119.732304 | Thai, Vegetarian, Noodles, Restaurants, Asian Fusion |

Also, they were great at not judging me for the fact that I ordered 3 different cakes all being picked up within a week of each other. I will update when I get cakes but 4/5 stars just for service! | 2021-01-13 02:11:42 | The Little Things Bakery | 2018 Cliff Dr | Santa Barbara | CA | 93109 | 34.402155 | -119.7249 | Patisserie/Cake Shop, French, Food, Restaurants, Bakeries, Cupcakes |

When driver called supervisor I was basically told too bad since I ordered online. I felt that was totally unacceptable. I would not have fought for a salad but to receive an answer like that was not acceptable in my book! | 2021-01-13 02:34:27 | Domino's Pizza | 185 S Patterson Ave, Ste G | Goleta | CA | 93111 | 34.43567 | -119.809773 | Pizza, Sandwiches, Chicken Wings, Restaurants |

They provide hand sanitizer, credit card cleaner, and all employees have masks and gloves. We had the 12 oz sirloin, 18 oz t bone, sautéed mushrooms, and chuck's famous Mai tai. I don't normally order mixed drinks so initially the mai tai didn't taste good ( wife had to tell me it was because it had A LOt of rum) but after the ice melts it doesn't taste that bad. The sautéed mushrooms smell like they cooked it in wine and it helps to cut the heaviness, the 18 oz was good and the rice helps to season it. Just wish they had a larger sized steak.
