PYFTfou4oxtL7Lf7UL3hwQ | JFGiD724xe5spv0PQR7mGQ | D_WS8rM-DVygaCKbIErZ6Q | 5 | My husband and I were staying at the Hyatt Place and the breakfast there sucked so we went across the parking lot to Palapa who was already opened.
The food was excellent, taste is authentic and the salsa was sooo good!
The waiter was friendly and attentive.
If You are in Santa Barbara I highly recommend this place. Excellent food and prices were great! | 2021-12-04 17:02:02 | Palapa | 4123 State St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93110 | 34.440664 | -119.760507 | Restaurants, Mexican |
bx8_61DSvl6Klone42zHdA | pefhf0ZJtrzPr5AXf-kLVw | skY6r8WAkYqpV7_TxNm23w | 5 | Looking for a fun brunch spot right on the beach?! This is your go to!
Tips:
- go early. Wait times are ridiculously long about 1-2hrs, especially on a Saturday
- if two people in the car, have someone go wait in line while the other looks for parking. Looking for parking will take the same amount of time as waiting to put your name on the list! The parking lot is pretty small and there's usually a line to get into the lot.
- to go line is MUCH shorter and you get your food within 15mins. So bring your own chairs and eat on the beach! There are also outside benches and tables to eat near the front of the restaurant too.
Although we opted for the to go line, the food was pretty amazing!
Signature Boathouse Breakfast $18.95. 2 crab cakes topped with poached eggs on a bed of house potatoes! Sauce on the side.
-this was absolutely delicious! The crab cakes were thick and STUFFED with lots of crab! Nice crunch to it! I love how the yolk melted on top the crab cake too! The potatoes were crispy, salty and chunky. I loved the hollandaise! Such a good silky consistency.
Chowder fries $10.95. Fries topped with chopped tiny pieces of crispy bacon & came with a cup of chowder.
-i LOVED that the chowder came in its own cup so we can pour over the fries at our own discretion. The fries itself was nothing special. Overly seasoned. Probably to bring out the flavor of the chowder once we smothered it over the fries! The chowder itself was flavorful and full of ingredients. The soup was thick! The seasoning of the fries and the chowder were a perfect pair.
Would I come back, DEFINITELY! I'd still do take out and sit on the beach too! | 2021-12-04 19:07:26 | Boathouse at Hendry's Beach | 2981 Cliff Dr | Santa Barbara | CA | 93109 | 34.403257 | -119.743752 | Seafood, Restaurants, Hawaiian, American (New), Breakfast & Brunch |

Brandon our server was attentive and friendly. The food was amazing and the atmosphere was beautiful! It is noisy inside, so if quiet is what you are looking for I would suggest sitting outside, where you can enjoy the beautiful view! There are many great places to eat here in our paradise but Reunion is a must! | 2021-12-04 20:16:32 | Reunion Kitchen + Drink | 1118 E Cabrillo Blvd | Santa Barbara | CA | 93103 | 34.417019 | -119.668975 | American (New), Restaurants, Salad, Burgers |

She didn't give us a hard time for staying almost 3 hours especially since we continued ordering the entire time! No judging all positive vibes. Gorgeous view, especially if you're lucky to have the table we did: outside center facing ocean.
Liz at front desk was also super cool! How she handles so many customers is beyond me!

The food is amazing, the service is stellar, and the ambiance hits all the right notes of intimidate or cozy and quality. Shout out to our angel and server Gabriel! He made my first real evening out since COVID, magical! He picked the right wine, the right meal, and capped it off with the most wonderful birthday mousse! If you're planning a trip this way, Toma should be on your list. | 2021-12-04 20:55:22 | Toma Restaurant & Bar | 324 West Cabrillo Blvd | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.408633 | -119.693496 | American (New), Italian, Bars, Restaurants, Nightlife, Food, Beer, Wine & Spirits |
VDnuMQa88ZyAATA1JEoWeg | 8HSqfkfOT-eT9U8xDWxsZw | V2cQOeZwPBmjpln6_p1Ygw | 5 | My most recent visit here was this last summer with my daughter, and we had a wonderful time. I had visited this location when I was much younger, but this latest visit was the first time I had been here in several years. It was actually my daughter's decision to come here to celebrate her birthday, a location that would bring her great peace and tranquility.
We spent a couple of days in the nearby area and enjoyed several "touristy things" while we were in Santa Barbara. We strolled along the beach both days, and we casually walked along the pier both days as well. We visited almost all of the little tourist shops along the pier at least once and we bought several items to help us remember the wonderful time we had together.
Stearns Wharf has an amazing history that originates back in 1872 when John P. Stearns first completed the commercial wharf here in Santa Barbara. During the initial years of completion, John Stearns had to experiment with different types of wood by trial and error before he was eventually satisfied with the structural integrity of the pier. Over the initial decades that followed, steam ships would carry passengers and cargo here to the wharf. Today, many still enjoy the wharf for fishing, the scenery, and for visiting the local businesses.
The wharf has struggled through several large storms and other catastrophic events, such as a major earthquake (in 1925) and two major fires (in 1973 and in 1998), and has been structurally reinforced and rebuilt over the years. Stearns Wharf stands today as the most visited landmark of Santa Barbara.
Stearns Wharf is a long pier where several folks can drive their cars or walk onto the pier for a visit. There are currently 17 businesses that operate along the pier, including restaurants, gift shops, a museum, candy stores and an ice cream parlor.
If anyone is planning to visit the Santa Barbara area, I would highly suggest that they make a visit to Stearns Wharf. It is certainly worth a few hours of time for a quick trip, and provides much more for those interested in the rich history and/or general beauty of a simple stroll along the pier with a loved one. It's also a great place to come to spend some quality time with your family, for a casual or a romantic date, or simply for individuals desiring a stroll along the pier to take in the scenery and collect their thoughts. | 2021-12-04 21:41:49 | Stearns Wharf | 217 Starnms Wharf | Santa Barbara | CA | 93190 | 34.410014 | -119.68555 | Public Services & Government, Landmarks & Historical Buildings, Local Flavor, Restaurants, Tours, Shopping, Shopping Centers, Seafood, Hotels & Travel, Boat Tours |

kVDNuCUdWmiL-1FLamDUGQ | _Zb4qvMcySYaVvhFKBcfmw | crlk8kaurC4zrPUTt7BevQ | 5 | Found this place by accident, but I'm so glad that I did. This place feels like total local spot. It's not a chain restaurant and the employees were all friendly and helpful. They have dine in or take out. You can also call in your to-go orders. Good food and good prices. Totally will come back when I'm in the area again. | 2021-12-04 22:02:34 | Chubbies Hamburgers | 2908 De La Vina St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93105 | 34.437693 | -119.726927 | Restaurants, Burgers |

So nice when veggies are not over or under cooked. Chic parm was quite good but not amazing. I can say the same about the bruschetta. Nice outdoor seating with good heat sources when cold outside. Nice, friendly staff. Definitely recommend for people looking for creative twist to pasta, salad, and pizza.

YEVSu-ZYjPucUNpOnJFDfw | zCV0FrVlMCrpZZ34jtly4Q | ebJav941naDgngDP2EIRHw | 2 | We decided to go to Panda Express for lunch today since we haven't gone in a long time, the restaurant was very nicely set up and clean, a long with a very friendly staff, although the portions we got were not even at all. I got probably 20% chicken 80% rice! Which is not a big deal, but the real tipping point was I received orange chicken instead teriyaki chicken even thought it was clearly written down on the box, and my cream cheese Rangoons weren't cooked properly. I would surely hope that this was just a mistake and not a regular deal. Overall the food was very tasty, I will say, just some bumps in the road. Although I will say, we did get 5 fortune cookies instead of just two was great, except the nonexistent utensils was... not so great. | 2021-12-04 22:37:45 | Panda Express | 3849 State St. Space I-58 | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.439041 | -119.749199 | Fast Food, Chinese, Restaurants |

I had the New York Pastrami Reuben sandwich. It was pretty incredible. The pastrami had some nice charred and burnt ends that gave the sandwich an incredible texture. I loved the contrast in flavors from the pastrami, slaw, dijon and rye bread.
Service was very friendly. I would love to come back one day! | 2021-12-04 22:50:16 | Finney's Crafthouse | 35 State St, Ste A | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.412764 | -119.690339 | Bars, American (Traditional), Gastropubs, Nightlife, Cocktail Bars, Restaurants, American (New) |

And then add those to the Super Rica Especial or the Lomito Suizo with some guacamole, and the food is mind-blowing. Also enjoyed the sopes with chicken (only served Thursdays).

4BLDtmNwQxF3kvhxuKKvIg | BckSrX58i8yTdIF1EX-Y7A | 7IdIGemGZodDAA_9mJCigA | 5 | This is one of the coolest diners I've ever eaten at! Farmer Boy is an old fashioned diner you would see in a film from the 1950s, complete with a soda fountain and barstools.
The food is incredible! I had the Santa Barbara Local, which is three scrambled eggs with tomatillo salsa, bacon, diced tomatoes, cheddar cheese and avocado. And you BEST BELIEVE that I would add TRI-TIP to that! Wow! One of the best breakfasts I've ever had. Incredibly filling and tasty. The hash browns on the side were also out of this world, incredibly buttery and crispy. I also had a pancake, which was very delicious.
But what stood out here the most was the incredibly friendly and attentive service. My order came out very quickly and the servers were all incredibly cordial. They even offered me a Diet Coke to-go!
I can't wait to visit Farmer Boy again in the future! | 2021-12-04 23:14:06 | Farmer Boy | 3427 State St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93105 | 34.440043 | -119.737343 | Breakfast & Brunch, Burgers, American (Traditional), American (New), Restaurants |

Terrible customer service. There is a tall lady working in the front who has an arrogant attitude towards the customers. I am writing a review because they did something that was a risk to health safety. We ordered things for dine in at 2:34pm on Dec 4 ( order number 829). The lady with an attitude served us our food and mistakenly gave us an extra drink. After a couple of minutes, we figured out that there was an extra drink we did not pay for. My mom returned it coz we wanted to be honest. At the counter, she was just arrogantly told by the same lady to just leave it on the counter which was weird because usually restaurants just let u have anything that u wanna return out of courtesy and health safety I am sure. Well, to our surprise, they gave the same cup to a different customer after a few minutes. BIG RED FLAG! What if we were bad people who put poison into the drink or something?? Restaurants r not supposed to give any food or drinks to their customers unless it came directly from their kitchen. And what made it worse for us is that the same lady took a short break to eat ice cream and without a care sat with her shoes up on the seat. What is the point of sanitizing the tables when their employees will just do that? She even left her shoe mark on the seat. I wanted to take a photo but by the time I took out my phone to do it, she got up. I have never seen that type of unprofessionalism from a McDonald's employee. And I never had high standards for McDonald's. I suggest the owner to check the cctvs. Restroom for women were gross too! | 2021-12-04 23:22:11 | McDonald's | 1115 Casitas Pass Rd | Carpinteria | CA | 93013 | 34.396815 | -119.512362 | Fast Food, Burgers, Coffee & Tea, Restaurants, Food |

Almost like it had either been allowed to rise too long? Or not long enough? It made me think whoever made our pizzas must never have actually had NY Pizza. I've had better pizza in airports.

I've personally worked in the food industry and I have never treated anyone like how they treated me here. It was a very unpleasant experience and I will unfortunately not be returning.

I saw they do some take-out options so we ordered spicy sweet chicken (has some good heat), marinated short ribs (has a sweet flavor), and pork belly kimchi fried rice (very large portion!). Each meat dish comes with white rice, kimchi, and cucumber. We had plenty of food for two of us and probably enough for a second meal. Phone ordering and pick-up was very easy!

My food came fairly quickly and I dug into the focaccia and broccoli soup. The focaccia was a good-sized portion and warm and delicious with a roasted garlic dipping oil. The soup, which came in a cute rustic bowl, was also very good. The presentation was so pretty with lots of edible flowers. I was very satisfied!
I like that they have plenty of vegan options and service is friendly.

The Vegana, which I've had before, is very good with quinoa, peppers, onions, cheese, and spinach. The Hakuna Batata is also yummy, with sweet potatoes, spinach, and shallots. Of course I ordered extra sauce and had lots left over to use on other things. It's really delicious.

bBQbVlns_IUWHG6tFxSn7A | wf8Ox1K_SmzI6mOIljxMVw | f3eve2cxUIzyanWnHdMtFQ | 4 | The food is good- well seasoned. However, we got the regular ceviche and it was kind of overwhelming. Everything was cut big. Big chunks of shrimp, big chunks of jicama, big chunks of cucumber all heaped on top of one lone tostada with a thin smattering of guac. There was also pico de gallo but it was cut like ceviche is supposed to be cut (small and uniform). Chips came with the ceviche, but they were oily and there was no real way to eat the ceviche with them. You couldn't really scoop or dip. We could have used a knife. Also, the quesadilla was open faced which kind of defeated the purpose. Looked more like a robust taco. It was also really messy to eat. But again, the food was good. Just maybe bring a knife to go with the ceviche. | 2021-12-05 02:05:08 | Corazon Cocina | 38 W Victoria, Unit 122 | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.423608 | -119.707054 | Restaurants, Breakfast & Brunch, Latin American, Mexican, Seafood |

The Mac and cheese is creamy. The topping is very salty and that takes away from the overall taste. | 2021-12-05 03:29:14 | Rincon Brewery | 5065 Carpinteria Ave | Carpinteria | CA | 93013 | 34.398372 | -119.518002 | Pubs, Bars, Food, American (Traditional), American (New), Nightlife, Breweries, Brewpubs, Restaurants |

I'm not sure why think it's okay to serve someone animal meat if they don't eat it if they are out of a veggie patty they should make the customer aware and ask them want. I have since spoke to the manger who offered to make it right and I really appreciate that and look forward to enjoying this restaurant again after this mishap. | 2021-12-05 03:37:49 | Eureka! | 601 Paseo Nuevo | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.418612 | -119.700151 | Restaurants, American (Traditional), Lounges, Nightlife, Bars, Burgers, American (New) |

vtIPh7kPmtAAhIXKGEOPHg | -tLoq799rAJ_0xmaRzK10g | NTLvzcGNm4IUF_yXIwIhvA | 5 | We went to an art opening at the nearby Lobstertown and decided to try Thario's. We both had the chicken piccata--my husband without changes and me with veggies instead of pasta (avoiding gluten). It was delicious with big chunks of tender chicken and (in my case) a fabulous side of sauteed mushrooms, artichokes, zucchini and red peppers in olive oil and garlic. Fresh bread and olives were provided. Friendly, prompt service and nice wines. We will definitely be back. | 2021-12-05 04:28:00 | Thario's Kitchen | 3807 Santa Claus Ln | Carpinteria | CA | 93013 | 34.406208 | -119.547716 | Pizza, Italian, Restaurants |

N136fy_AHyTRFftWzyDhlw | S9vV8baC01KgZF58wG4GVw | LuPK46HMxRYEVTXVbBCR1g | 2 | I've not personally encountered a forced 20% tip on a table for two in any of the countries I visited. When asked, I was told that "It's on the menu." Owners, I hope you're sitting down for this, you don't have menus in your restaurant.
You are putting your servers in a tough position, because when they're asked about this forced tip, they're needing to pull something out of their butt to appease the customer, but there is unfortunately nothing they can say.
How embarrassing for the best wings in town to be marked with a cancer in your integrity department. | 2021-12-05 04:39:23 | Sama Sama Kitchen | 1208 State St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.423701 | -119.704638 | Cocktail Bars, Farmers Market, Tapas Bars, Food, Desserts, Nightlife, Asian Fusion, Restaurants, Tapas/Small Plates, Bars, Indonesian |

Hotdogs were not bad, but pretty basic in my opinion; nothing really stood out to me. If you're looking for a quick snack, then this may be the place to go. I'd give it a 3.5 stars. | 2021-12-05 05:57:15 | Dave's Dogs Grill | 149 S Turnpike Rd | Santa Barbara | CA | 93111 | 34.43777 | -119.789718 | Restaurants, Hot Dogs |
yhNYTknbukSY89YA09JOVA | xiihSlQkEjjlvwFqub9pjA | cZ6sHHLv7VSmuFSxP6sQLg | 1 | Upon buying my food, the guy at the register calmly looked up at and said "I love you." To be honest, I was taken aback by the remark and made slightly uncomfortable, but I got my two buns and sat down.
Both buns I got, the popcorn chicken bun and the stewed pork belly bun, were spicy which I wasn't really expecting. To be honest, I was disappointed by the taste and only ate half of each before tossing out the remaining contents of the tray.
Its good that there is some cheap street food in IV--on the order of $3 a bun--but there was an apparent lack of diversity in flavors, as both were soaked in the same spicy red sauce. If you're not a fan of that specific cilantro sauce, which I imagine is pretty foreign to the Californian palette, this place is not for you--or me for that matter.
So if you want food that's all the same specific flavor, and a server who makes you uncomfortable, I guess this is your place. | 2021-12-05 06:00:25 | Lao Wang | 6530 Pardall Rd, Ste B | Goleta | CA | 93117 | 34.413272 | -119.85478 | Noodles, Restaurants, Gluten-Free, Creperies, Chinese, Asian Fusion |

Some good vegetarian options including Tofu 'scramble', basically tofu mixed with lots of vegetables served with feta cheese and salsa topping (actually pico de gallo, but I could not tell you the difference). Really good, nice to have a breakfast option that did not include eggs. Hash browns were perfectly cooked. Partner had Spanish Omelet which was also enjoyed.
Outdoor seating with well spaced tables. Surprisingly (to us anyway), the indoor seating was completely packed when we left with outdoor seating still available.
It would have been nice to have plant based "sausage" options to complete what was already a very, very good vegetarian meal. | 2021-12-05 06:24:26 | Esau's Cafe | 507 Linden Ave | Carpinteria | CA | 93013 | 34.396445 | -119.521744 | Burgers, American (New), Diners, Breakfast & Brunch, Fish & Chips, Restaurants |

At first we wanted to come back for dinner since the dinner menu had more options but we decided to try the lunch anyways. The Murgh tikka was excellent but we found the paneer tikka to be a little bland. We enjoyed the curry bowls as well.

While we have come for years, I removed one star as the vast collection of dirty glasses on the bar top has somehow become a signature of the space. Also the food menu was better when the resort first opened with Caruso's Rigatoni being a beloved dish.

Jf76Yh6mQ2HvwNd_U64tHw | EoV7Ceu2M02_XcsHDkbMdQ | Ss6f5v_t5Vddiaz4ZOxL0g | 5 | I picked this place because it was the only one I came across that had a dog menu in the Yelp pictures. I'm probably a weirdo, but if I find out some place has a dog menu, we go. I'm not certain they still have the dog menu, because it wasn't posted, and the person who helped us was new and wasn't sure. Either way, she got a side of Viking bacon and scrambled eggs. She said both were delicious. The bacon was perfectly crispy. I had the breakfast sandwich, which came on a large croissant and was paired with potatoes. All portions were generous. The seasoning on the potatoes was new to me but very good. | 2021-12-05 17:57:13 | Andersen's Danish Bakery & Restaurant | 1106 State St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.422719 | -119.703303 | Modern European, Nightlife, Bars, Restaurants, Bakeries, Wine Bars, Food, Scandinavian, Breakfast & Brunch |

It looks like there are three of them now in Southern California. The patio is very nice and equipped with heat lamps. Service was very attentive throughout the meal. The inside area was smaller than I thought it would be. We were a bit bothered that there is no free parking (we assumed at night this would not be a problem but the city made the beach lots require payment until 10 pm- even in the winter! - ridiculous but not the fault of the restaurant). We ordered and shared a few appetizers including the avocado wontons (this would be even more amazing if they had ahi in them and when watermelon is in season- they were light on the avocado but overall tasty), garlic miso noodles (yum!), and Asian ribs (yum!). The portions were big for appetizers so 3 dishes was plenty for two of us. I also ordered a virgin drink due to pregnancy (strawberry mint mojito - i wish the strawberry mint and cucumber had been muddled because it mostly tasted like water- i would skip this next time). My husband ordered an earl grey old fashioned which he said was very good. I hope to come back during the day when i can enjoy the ocean view and when i can try the regular cocktail menu! | 2021-12-05 18:22:52 | Reunion Kitchen + Drink | 1118 E Cabrillo Blvd | Santa Barbara | CA | 93103 | 34.417019 | -119.668975 | American (New), Restaurants, Salad, Burgers |

There were only 2 people managing the bar and service. Our food arrived 40+ minutes after placing it. We ordered more drinks which they forgot about so I had to go in and add the request again. Both me and my husband had to personally go in several times to get what we needed. My husband also got 2nd mule which didn't taste like a mule. Bar tender said she accidentally gave the wrong drink so he got a new glass which was filled with ice and the drink was little bit over half full. Food wise, it was good except for chicken shawarma. Chickpea patty from chickpea burger was definitely very good. I cant imagine hoe their service will be when they're actually busy, so we will not be taking chance in the future.
For the good food and set up they have, the can go long way with good service. | 2021-12-05 18:52:59 | Foxtail Kitchen & Bar | 14 E Cota St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.418075 | -119.696223 | Bars, Mediterranean, Burgers, Restaurants, Gastropubs, Nightlife, Whiskey Bars, Cocktail Bars |

Chilli oil wonton was so good, but not for everyone especially if you can't handle pungent taste. Pork dim sum tasted bland, but was juicy and fresh. Hot and sour soup was also good.

R1-MtEagGmwCkA0NIWxF3A | CQZpblGIHeMlD7KqNP7J7Q | tthy48ZIX_wfY8Dy0Dvg6w | 5 | Make reservations prior to coming here. They have a pretty cute outdoor dining area and location is right in downtown/shopping area so its fun to explore the area nearby. They have a parking lot thats free for the first 75 mins but I think you can look for street parking as well.
For the starter we got the french onion soup. I liked it! I thought it was flavorful but I don't have much to compare it to. My boyfriend and I got the ribeye and the short rib as our mains. Both plates were good. In a lot of hyped up fancy restaurants their main dishes are usually just ok but I was pleasantly surprised with bouchon. My steak was a little more on the rare side but it was well seasoned, maybe a hair on the salty side, and the texture was wonderful. It paired really nicely with the brocolini and potatoes that came with the dish. Portion size was great as well.
My boyfriend enjoyed his short rib. It was tender and flavorful and it paired well with the risotto. The texture of everything together is a little mushy but flavors are great.
I would recommend this place for a nice dinner or fancy outing! | 2021-12-05 19:30:00 | Bouchon | 9 W Victoria St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.423983 | -119.70586 | Seafood, Bars, Wine Bars, American (New), Restaurants, French, Nightlife, Mexican |

The regular menu looks amazing, so next visit to SB, we'll try again, but while the traditional dinner was nice enough, and the service was as expected for the holiday, the experience was memorable and the setting was lovely.

The views are the best! We arrived at that odd time after lunch and before happy hour, but we enjoyed the experience so much, we stayed for happy hour.

fPXIjmQW-7sus1oKpRCEvw | IDCVIPzpUCuT8Vwxct9jYw | hDr_bt6MEwlGvGCCKzyzhg | 4 | It's a pleasure to review Goleta Coffee Co / Loca Vivant Kitchen after Elite Yelper Hanna S. and Community Manager Richie D. The first thing I want to do is reiterate some of the great things these folks have written:
- This business is very friendly to vegans and plant-based eaters
- There is no 'vegan tax' (upcharge for plant-based milks)
- The seasonal (and regular) menus include veggie, vegan, and gluten-free options, and feature plenty of locally-sourced ingredients and collaborations
Now to add some details of my own: on both of my two visits (on Mondays around 12:30pm) the place was temporarily overrun by students on open-campus lunch from nearby San Marcos High. My advice? Arrive before noon or after 1pm to avoid this young lunch rush. That aside, I've been able to snag a table out front both times. Sitting outdoors was the only appealing option, unfortunately, because despite the mask mandate many customers indoors (both from the high school and not) were unmasked--even though employees were diligently following Covid-safer procedures.
On my visits I've tried:
- The 'un-bagel' ($2): a deliciously dense, keto-friendly, vegan, grain-free round of goodness. I had mine toasted with no spread on top, and the rich oils crisped up nicely. The 'un-bagel' was so flavorful, with the right touch of salt, that it was super on its own.
- The almond coconut vegan, gluten-free brownie ($3.50): while not usually a chocolate person, I wanted something sweet and was pleased to see a vegan option. The brownie was great--not too heavy nor too cakey, but firm with slightly crispy edges. The slivered almonds added a richness and crunch, and the light coconut flavor provided a special overtone.
- The refillable for-here house cup of coffee (menu says $2.50 but I've been charged $2.75 both times): love the eco-friendly option, which entitles one to sample multiple types of the fun varieties of coffee on offer (there are standard types as well as neat options like cinnamon bun and vanilla nut). As someone who easily becomes over-caffeinated, it's also great that I can switch to decaf, and there have been two types of decaf available both days I visited. One had been brewed in the morning and was cold, but the friendly barista offered to steam it to hot, frothy perfection for me.
With vegan offerings, a gender-neutral restroom, and mostly friendly customer service (on my first visit the young manager with long blonde hair and a European accent was bristly), I'll be paying this place more visits. It's been a relaxed study environment (using headphones for a little musical facilitation during busy times). While I haven't found any outlets in front for computer usage, a fully-charged laptop, digital text, and fast, free wi-fi have made studying here easy. | 2021-12-05 20:01:28 | Goleta Coffee Co and Loca Vivant Kitchen | 177 S Turnpike Rd | Santa Barbara | CA | 93111 | 34.437517 | -119.790939 | Restaurants, Coffee & Tea, Breakfast & Brunch, Gluten-Free, Food, Sandwiches, Bagels |

Two years in a row I have come in a few times a couple weeks before Christmas for gift cards and this location NEVER has them. I am not a business genius but I've ran multiple restaurants in my life and I know gift card sales are the lifeblood of a restaurant during this time of year.

At a brew pub.
Great outdoor patio.
Great beer selection.
Great food.
Do I really need to say more?
No, but...We had the double deluxe impossible burger and the classic munchwrap. Both were worth returning for, but I think we would look forward to trying their other options that sound enticing.
Beers, I learned I'm not a big fan of 'fruit forward' IPA's, but my partner is, graduating from blond ales.

oXzBP8utvA157wKpuPDZXQ | 37ztQXVgezRc6qnYGp--hg | GuzbBFraIq-fbkjfvaTRvg | 2 | VEGAN EATERS HERE.....To be honest, the tag might better read "Should have been better". If you know me, there is no bigger fan of restaurants in general. I rarely write a bad review, I just don't say anything. This is something that needs saying and, there will be no photos this time.
We've been going to Mesa Verde for almost seven years now and at times considered it our favorite (V) restaurant on the Central Coast. The food was spectacular, the presentation was always equal to the food, the creativity and thought given to each element of the eating experience was simply remarkable.
Then, a while back, things started to fail and yes, I'm taking into consideration covid19. The quality started getting spotty, the service erratic, the ambience less inviting and the food, always the mainstay was inconsistent.
While in Santa Barbara the other day we decided to take a chance and revisit for lunch. To be honest, we were simply stunned. The menu was much smaller and literally dirty, and the prices had jumped to an alarming degree. The vibe was so flat, the only welcome came from the busser.
We ordered the street tacos and the green bowl to share between us. The prices were shocking, both $22.00 nearly double the previous prices, the presentation was beyond lackluster with the tacos arriving on a plain white plate, not the wooden planks they used to use, no garnish, just three tacos which comes to over $7.00 each?
The bowl wasn't much better but we figured we bought it so eat it. Both dishes were so salty as to be nearly inedible. We mentioned this to the server who shrugged his shoulders and walked off. Water was never refilled, no dessert offered, not that we would have ordered one at this point and, they range from $13-14.00 each.
To say that Mesa Verde is no longer what it once was isn't even close to the disappointing experience. This place used to be a Mecca for vegans and non-vegans. The food/service/ambience/quality was remarkable. Now it is simply sad, even the restroom was dirty.
I prefaced these comments by saying I am fully aware that Covid19 has created countless problems for restaurants, some have made it and some have not. Some have flourished and some have not which is the case here. It would take a lot to get us to return or bring any of the many friends and family we've introduced to MV over the years.
It gives me no joy to say any of this but it's not my restaurant, I have been a very good customer for many years so not one of the malcontents here who never even ate at a restaurant and gave it 1 star for not getting in. Nope.
I sincerely hope they wake up and give up the ghost or pull it together. Everyone deserves better. | 2021-12-06 02:09:01 | Mesa Verde | 1919 Cliff Dr | Santa Barbara | CA | 93109 | 34.401349 | -119.72308 | Garage Door Services, Restaurants, Live/Raw Food, Food, Home Services, Mediterranean, Keys & Locksmiths, Burgers, Vegetarian, Juice Bars & Smoothies, Vegan, Salad |

I also ordered mine with sauerkraut but when my food came out it wasn't on the plate and the server said they ran out. The table next to us had their order served about 10 min later and they had sauerkraut on their plate. We also didn't know there were other condiments available such as spicy mustard, we would have liked that. We also had a small pretzel that had a cheese sauce on the side that was really runny, almost like ranch dressing which we passed on. Food was ok, atmosphere was really nice but I think they need to work some minor issues. | 2021-12-06 02:16:39 | Biergarten | 11 Anacapa St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.41339 | -119.68894 | Nightlife, Beer Gardens, Restaurants, Pizza, Hot Dogs |
f-qEtJUg-dUdFOnHZNK51g | L4qSrIPtASvMOe4IH5r9Tg | oGDGlUbOjHxmmCh8ZYcDCg | 4 | Food's great. Creative and spot on. But the trendy (and tired) "shared plates" style and menu leads to confusion and over-ordering. Even though our waiter told it intend "a lot of food" we went ahead. Our bad. But a better explanation and menu is called for. Also, we sat just inside the restaurant and on this December night both front doors were flung open and cold air breezes in. I get it - COVID restrictions. Still annoying. Inside was chaotic and loud - lots of folks I am sure think this is the mark of a winning place, but it was clearly a decibel attack and a challenge to communicate. But on the things that really matter: loved the food, had a bunch of leftover and a reasonable corkage - I'll give it 4 stars. But clearly I can't say this is a "must do". Other SB spots rival the food with a better experience (for me). | 2021-12-06 02:21:45 | The Lark | 131 Anacapa St, Ste A | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.414878 | -119.690279 | Nightlife, Bars, Cocktail Bars, Food, American (New), Desserts, Restaurants |

FOOD: We ordered their carne asada with crab flauta and it was amazing. The steak had that chargrilled flavor which made it even more mouthwatering. The crab flauta was also really good. The kids had a breakfast burrito and pancakes and again, everything was delicious. The pancakes were like fluffy clouds and the burrito was packed with eggs, ham, and bacon (kids didn't want the tomatoes nor peppers). The roasted home potatoes that came with the breakfast burrito were also amazing. Even their michelada was superb. The only thing that was so so was the wife's chilaquiles. They were not bad, but nothing special.
SERVICE: Waiters were very nice and patient. It took a few inquiries to get my michelada but it was worth the wait!
LOCATION: Located on the famous State Street and about a block from the beach, does not get much better than this. We sat outside (small patio on sidewalk) and really enjoyed the weather and the crowd.
NOTEWORTHY: A truly savory and delicious Mexican restaurant in SB. Definitely worth a try! | 2021-12-06 04:41:20 | Santo Mezcal | 119 State St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.413456 | -119.691322 | Latin American, Restaurants, Mexican, New Mexican Cuisine |

They have outdoor seating with heated fire pit lamps although it was still very chilly. We arrived at 9pm and were told they close at 1030 so last call for orders is 10:15pm so we immediately ordered I felt a little rushed. I also saw at 10:15 they were still seating people. So that's my reasoning for 4/5 stars. We had popcorn shrimp for appetizer which was delicious. I ordered a baked salmon roll assuming it would be the kind they stick in the oven over a fire with foil. But it was some kind of hand roll. It was very small basic hand type roll. It was actually good. Beers come out in 32 oz bottles with a glass. And for dessert we had deep fried green tea ice cream. Everything was delicious and will definitely return. They have wasabi and ginger already on the tables though that's a little different but overall we had good service | 2021-12-06 04:45:40 | Arigato Sushi | 1225 State St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.42385 | -119.705477 | Restaurants, Sushi Bars, Japanese, Asian Fusion |

(ok, I copied it. Could not describe Buena Onda better)
We wanted something quick and not overly filling before heading into the Art Museum across the street and Buena Onda was perfect. We had 4 vegetarian empanadas (papa vegan, vegan quinoa, hongos, and espinaca). If forced to choose, I would go for the hongos and espinaca, but all were really good.
The very personable service was an added plus. | 2021-12-06 05:20:44 | Buena Onda at Mosaic Locale | 1131 State St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.422921 | -119.704424 | Comfort Food, Bakeries, Food, Desserts, Restaurants, Empanadas, Argentine |

All the fries were stale and gross. The shrimp was so nasty and were not deveined. The food was horrible. Hoping we don't get sick. | 2021-12-06 05:41:48 | Deja Vu Cafe IV | 966 Embarcadero Del Mar | Goleta | CA | 93117 | 34.411727 | -119.856795 | Restaurants, Burgers, Fast Food |

They have other fresh local seafood that local fisherman brings in like the Spiny Lobster. My husband was craving for Uni so we ordered 2 uni to share. Well let me tell you folks this is as fresh as you're going to get. They cut the Uni in half live and place on a bed of ice and serve with side of sliced lemons. My mouth is watering as I write this review! The Uni is creamy, sweet and has bit of bitterness like the ocean. Haha! Then put a little bit of lemon and it's perfect!! The staff is well knowledgeable and super nice! We will definitely come back for fresh Uni and perhaps take home spiny lobster next time. | 2021-12-06 05:47:54 | Santa Barbara Fish Market | 117 Harbor Way, Unit A | Santa Barbara | CA | 93109 | 34.403749 | -119.693561 | Seafood, Specialty Food, Seafood Markets, Farmers Market, Restaurants, Food |

First of all, it's a beautiful restaurant, the food is amazing and it's presentation is extraordinary. The food is decorated with colorful flowers, the only downside was our waitress in some aspects, but everyone here is super helpful. We were missing food due to our waitress not putting the food in, thankfully Coby helped us out and took care of business, he was friendly and attentive about the situation and managed to get our missing meal out within three minutes. | 2021-12-06 06:05:04 | Scarlett Begonia | 21 W Victoria St | Santa Barbara | CA | 93101 | 34.423529 | -119.706257 | Cafes, Restaurants, American (Traditional), Cocktail Bars, Breakfast & Brunch, Food, Beer, Wine & Spirits, American (New), Bars, Nightlife |

Plus ... (CONTROVERSY) ... pizza man Dan's has better ranch dressing. I never thought I'd say that about any place... also, their pizza tastes like pizza. If I wanted a frozen pizza... I'd just buy one and make it myself. Pizza Man Dan's is worth the delivery fee. Their toppings are fresh and their cheese seems to be actual cheese that follows the laws of physics/chemistry when warm. It melts. Pizza Man Dans has replaced the old, trust 564-111. | 2021-12-06 06:13:00 | PizzaMan Dan's | 699 Linden Ave | Carpinteria | CA | 93013 | 34.396959 | -119.521063 | Chicken Wings, Restaurants, Beer, Wine & Spirits, Sandwiches, Food, Pizza, Italian |
