“As a member of The Art The Art Farmers band, I wanted to thank you for having us play music on your outdoor stage. The beer, food and live music make for a great Sunday afternoon. The audience was really good too… I think we will be getting new fans in the SB area.“

“We stumbled into this spot and we're so happy we did! The vibe of the place was top notch and the service was even better! We did a wine tasting and each pour got better than the last. Our bartender was so kind and informative giving us tasting notes with each new wine. I walked away with some great bottles that I can't wait to share with friends! 😊“

“Kim was awesome and so much fun to hang out and chat with! I had some friends visiting from Japan. And luckily, we stumbled into Jamie Slone's for some wine tasting!

The wines smelled great (I no longer drink). But my friends really enjoyed the wine tasting and atmosphere! My friends also took many pictures 😂🙏

We'll definitely be back to visit!

Thanks for the hospitality, Kim!“

“We had a very friendly and knowledgeable staff member greet us and take us through our wine flight journey. All the wines were as described and exceptional.“

“Absolutely 💕 fabulous staff.“

“We decided to do a Carr tasting because our friends have been members for years, the winery offers Cab Francs, which we love and believe are under appreciated, the tasting room looked cool in photos, and it was within walking distance of our hotel. The tasting room and tasting bar were even cooler in person and we enjoyed tasting the wines on the shaded patio, led by our excellent tasting guide, who was well-schooled in the wines on offer. We especially liked the Cab Franc and joined their Cab Franc Club. Of course this was no surprise to us because we’ve had their wines before, at our friends’ house. When we were planning our Santa Barbara trip I said “no more wine clubs,” but we made an exception for Carr.“

“Great wine tasting. By flight, glass or bottle - Zach is awesome. He knows his wines and describes them in a very entertaining, passionate and figurative speech that left me hanging on his lips.
The wine was delicious - I loved the Albariño.
Thanks for a good time.“

“Fantastic experience today at Pali! We shared a carafe and tried some interesting wines. A large variety of wines to suit all tastes and a good atmosphere.
Very friendly staff, shout out to Jennifer who made our experience very special! We will be back!“

“Excellent wine!

I've been here twice now and have really enjoyed their wine, especially their Pinot Noir.

They offer wine tasting, wine by the glass, and bottles of course.

Seating is available inside and in the courtyard they share with the brewery next door.“

“We had a fantastic experience at Fox Wine Company. The tasting room is nestled inside the Waterline—a cool, industrial space shared with Topa Topa Brewery, Lama Dog Tap Room, Kiva Cowork, and The Nook Eatery, founded by Master Chef Norbert Guehr. The setup is perfect—guests can enjoy incredible wines and order delicious food from The Nook, which gets delivered right to your table.

A special shoutout to Evett, who made our visit exceptional. He was incredibly informative, professional, and engaging. His knowledge and passion for wine elevated the whole experience, and because of him, we’re already looking forward to coming back. Highly recommend! 🍷“
