“Best bagels in the entire Santa Barbara area! Real New York style.

Parking: We have been to Yetz’s at least 10 times, we have never had a problem with parking.

Kid-friendliness: We take the grandkids there often. They love the bagels and we love the choices of breakfast sandwiches.“

“This is our go-to spot for our twice quarterly get together after Aikido class.“

“The people that work there are great, coffee and delicious desserts !“

“Best boba/milk tea/tea in Isla Vista (and even all of Santa Barbara)!! Although new, Mojo Teahouse has quickly become a popular staple in the UCSB community. Stop by and try it out, if you’re in the area :)“

“it's a little hole in the wall shop that makes amazing bagel sandwiches. Love stopping here for a bite when in IV.“

“It was a cute and asthetic coffee shop.
The coffee is really good. I had the black sesame latte and strawberry milk.
We went on a Sunday afternoon, and the line was long. Sadly, they had sold out on all baked goods, but drinks were still available.“

“Great people..nice beer 🍺“

“Great food and service. Beautiful location.“

“This is a great spot in the scenic mountain area of Santa Barbara California. Awesome food and the staff is amazing. Perfect stop for lunch while on a motorcycle ride.“

“Consistently fantastic espresso and cappuccino at Handlebar - fairly close approximation to a French cafe, as people hang out here for hours on end. Outside patio (dogs allowed) - this is a legit SB locals place. Starbucks SUCKS! (Handlebar has a downtown location as well, but I prefer De La Vina).“

“I can't even say I have a favorite. It's all good. When you bring home a warm loaf, all is well with the world.“

“I've been a loyal customer at South Coast Deli in Goleta for the past two years, visiting twice a week, and I've tried everything on the menu. Their food never disappoints! My all-time favorite is the Chicken Caesar Sammie—it's absolutely delicious and always hits the spot. The staff here is warm and welcoming, making every visit a pleasure. It gets busy at lunch, but ordering online for pickup is a breeze and saves a lot of time. Highly recommend South Coast Deli for anyone looking for fantastic food and great service!“

“Stopped to charge the car nearby and had lunch. Food was fantastic! Highly recommend the meatloaf and double toad in the hole! Hash browns were crispy and buttery. Will be back when we’re in town next! ❤️“

“Just to inform you that the name Dutch is the English name for the language and the inhabitants of the Netherlands. They are called the Dutch, and the language spoken is Dutch. There is nothing Dutch about the food. It’s more traditional German food, so maybe rename the restaurant Deutsch.
And the language and culture are not the same.“

“Yummy food, quick service, and solid cocktails. We’ve come here a couple of times, and enjoyed everything we’ve had each time! It is part of a hotel lobby, which dings the ambience so slightly, but it’s very nicely re-done and a pretty place to be!“

“We really highly recommend the avocado toast on wheat bread and fresh smoothies.“

“Who can go wrong with Kyle?“

“First time here, but it's a favorite for my family that lives in town and I completely understand why.... it's phenomenal!!! I had the Chile Verde omelet with home fries and corn tortillas, as well as a gluten-free waffle with berries and cream. Every bite was full of flavor and love! Highly recommend“

“Despite my last not so great visit in March I stopped in with some friends to give it another try. Food was fresh and delicious, service was fantastic. Happy surprise after the horrible service in March! Thank you!“

“Great place! The back patio is super chill and intimate! Loved meeting the owner, Ron and learning his story! If you are in the area and enjoy a good craft beer this is a must visit place. BONUS you can bring in your own food and the Noodle house next door will even deliver.“

“Best Food in Santa Barbara.12/10 ⭐️’s.“

“Taqueria La Unica is exactly what you want in a taco spot — no frills, just seriously good food made with heart. First timer here, I'm satisfied by the flavors, the quality, and the consistency.

The tacos are the real deal — packed with juicy, well-seasoned meat and served on soft, fresh tortillas. The al pastor and carne asada are standouts, but honestly, you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. The salsa bar is a bonus, with a great range of heat and flavor that lets you customize every bite.

The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly, with outdoor seating that makes it a perfect spot to soak in Santa Barbara’s beautiful weather. Service was fast, the staff was kind, and everything was spot-on.

Parking is a breeze with a free parking lot available on-site, making it easy to enjoy your meal without the hassle of searching for a spot

We were already impressed, but what really made our visit unforgettable was the personal touch from the staff. We were celebrating a graduation, and to our surprise, the chef personally came out to present a complimentary “graduation” dessert, not one but two!!— such a thoughtful and unexpected gesture! It wasn’t just delicious — it made us feel truly welcomed and celebrated.“

“Excellent experience. Highly recommend. Will return again.“

“Not a super big fan of beer so didn’t have many choices. However, I have many friends who enjoy the drinks here. I tried the Michelada and it was NOT good. They do have a great Mexican food truck that we love! They have vegan options which is a plus! Monday trivia is really fun!“

“Hi thank you so much so much“

“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.“

“Amazing food and service 😊“

“Such an accommodating place! Good service, a diverse, delicious well priced menu, and convenient! Wish they were open longer in the day.“

“We would like to express my sincere gratitude to Masala Spice, specifically to the owner, Rajesh and the entire team, for surpassing all expectations in catering at my daughter’s wedding. Masala Spice expertly served approximately 225 guests across three distinct venues. In collaboration with family members, Rajesh meticulously crafted a unique menu for each event, tailored to the venue’s theme. Rajesh’s exceptional attention to detail was evident in the visually stunning presentation at each event. His close collaboration with our event coordinator ensured that the presentation was as captivating as the cuisine. Rajesh’s tireless dedication and patience were instrumental in finalizing the menus through multiple iterations. Masala Spice also accommodated our last-minute requests for additional meal preparations with flawless execution. Our guests were universally impressed by both the presentation and taste of the cuisine. The chaash bottles and watermelon juice bottles were an absolute hit during these warm summer days!!! We would like to acknowledge the entire staff who are very caring and courteous. They delivered the perfect food with the perfect taste at every event given that we had a very diverse menu. We could not have asked for anyone else.
We sincerely thank Masala Spice for the impeccable catering at my daughter’s wedding. Masala Spice is a truly unique culinary establishment in the Santa Barbara area, specializing in innovative fusion cuisine. We look forward to the opportunity to work with Masala Spice again and encourage anyone in the area to experience their exceptional Indian lunch, dinner, and snack offerings.
We wish Masala Spice continued success.“

“What made this experience was not only the food, it was the fresh made tortillas. I had the huevos and chorizo, my wife had the mojo de ajo shrimp and sons had burritos.

If you need a place that serves up good Mexican I highly suggest.“

“Everything was wonderful the corn dogs as usual but the corn couldn’t even eat it. It’s not like it used to be. Bring back the fresh corn. Tossed it out so soft and not what I expected or what I was used to“

“Great coffee and a fun venue.“

“The food was great! We were a little reluctant because it was an order at the counter, but this place did not disappoint. Bacon was the best my husband ever tasted. I had the Hi-protien scramble, and eggs never tasted so good, and let me tell ya, the scones are to die for. I'm from So Cal but will come here again!“

“I gotta say it was my first time trying the food I order yaters meal it was a grilled chicken sammich with the toppings and the Caesar salad with shaved parmesan cheese with croutons and fries with ranch. It was soo delishhhhhh!!! I highly recommend you give it a whirl. Follow Your Taste Buds!!!!“

“WOW, one word…DELICIOUS! Can’t believe it took me so long to try Natural Cafe! I was throughly impressed with the Mt. Fuji Stir Fry…chicken was super juicy with the perfect char broiled flavor, veggies were super fresh and cooked perfectly! Portions are VERY generous!

Will definitely be back to try other items on the menu, but this was a GREAT first visit!“
