“This is the spot for coffee, drinks (cold and hot), and delicious treats! Everything was top notch and you can tell they use all high quality ingredients and know how to make drinks.
Lots of seating inside and outside with parking, although currently (mid November 2025) there is some construction on the street right outside so it may cause a little traffic, but still enoflow to visit here. The almond croissant was one of the best I have had, seriously.
Very nice atmosphere, vibe, and relaxing, great spot for a break and to relax and have greqt drinks and some snacks.“

“Hi mosaic locale I will see you“

“If you are looking for an Amazing And Beautiful event venue for a wedding reception, a birthday party, a bachelorette, or any occasion venue. I Highly Highly recommend State and Fig in Santa Barbara! From planning to execution, Patrick and Serina made my niece’s wedding Perfect! I don’t use Perfect lightly, as I am known to be critical and a perfectionist especially when it comes to events. They made my niece's wedding planning experience so easy, from booking the venue to providing Customized menu options, and ALWAYS received quick responses any time we had questions as well as added personal touches of their own to the wedding. Serina and Patrick were extremely helpful, detailed, and knowledgeable and knew exactly what we wanted and how they could help. On the wedding day, The whole staff was very friendly, attentive, communicative, accommodating, Extremely helpful, and responsive, from assisting with centerpiece decorations, to serving hors d’oeuvres Always with a smile, making sure Each and Every guest was taken care of throughout the night, I was very impressed! Now for the food, EXCEPTIONAL, the taste was phenomenal, the meat was tender, the salmon was cooked perfectly, Nothing was over/undercooked, so delicious and the guests would not stop talking about how good the hors d’oeuvre and main courses were! Thank you, Serina, Patrick, and your staff from the bottom of our hearts for helping to make my niece’s wedding day beyond wonderful, and Perfect! We certainly will be back even for a weekend getaway! 😊“

“Omg so yummy ! For your tummy !“

“Increíble vista, buena comida“

“Wonderful French pastries in California with beautiful setting.“

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

“Great for lunch and brunch. All tables are outside. Lovely garden setting outside this well merchandised home accessory shop where I never leave empty handed. Place your food and drink order at the register outside, take your numbered table card to any table and your food will be delivered to you. It’s not a fancy setting, but it is comfortable. Menu is varied with soup, salads and delicious sandwiches. The only snafu is one order taker and the weekend lunch time line can be long. Be patient. It’s worth the time.“

“The pasta was amazing and so fresh! The tuna wrapped in prosciutto appetizer was so delicious 😋! You must try it.“

“Yummy!! A must place to visit in Ventura!!“

“Tasty cupcakes. Beware, the chocolate flavored cupcake frosting has a strong coffee flavor. I didn't see that on a sign or anything, but maybe I was supposed to know... But it was surprising. Tasty, but if you don't want mocha flavor, avoid the chocolate frosting.
Or maybe it was just a problem this weekend...

Regardless, the cupcakes were good. And the chocolate chip cookie was very good. Subtle with a little bit of salt on top. I enjoyed the chocolate chip cookie the most, will likely stop again!“

“We stopped in for breakfast on our way up the coast of Cali. Everything we ate and drank was delicious. I ordered the Hibiscus cold brew, the carmelised onion and goat cheese quiche, and the banana bread. Not only is everything fresh and tasty- the ambience is amazing 🤩 I think I'd fly back out just to visit this cafe 🥰“

“Beautiful setting and atmosphere. We ate breakfast and ordered the shaksukah and protein omelet. The dishes arrived super hot, were delivered upon ready and were delicious. The cortado coffee was tasty and professional. We didn’t try the pastries but they all looked amazing.“

“I absolutely love the creative lattes and drinks here! Especially the sesame cappuccino they have. Not too strong on the sesame, so even if you are a first timer to try this latte flavor, it is super friendly.

I definitely recommend this place, especially if you are walking down state st and need a drink!“

“We enjoyed the Thanksgiving Buffet, it was DELICIOUS!! 🦃🥰❤️“

“This place is the best! I love the crystal lighting, fresh floral bouquets, scrumptious cuisine and coffee. I had an almond croissant, which was lightly sweetened and so delicious. But, what makes this place the very best is the amazing service. You can tell that the staff really enjoy working here! Alessia has a lot be proud of, for creating such a wonderful place in Santa Barbara to enjoy the finer things in life: Family, friendship, and croissants, ofcourse!!! Kudos to Katie (I hope I spelled your name correctly) for making me feel so welcome. You all gave me the best service that I've had in quite a while. THANK YOU!“

“went in on my meal break while working in montecito wasn’t too hungry so I ordered a truffle which was good the pizza aroma smelled good eventually I’m sure will have a pizza from there but what I ordered was good enough for me 🙂“

“Saint Remy is a cute little spot connected to the Marriott on State St, the restaurant area has such a fun and beachy atmosphere I loved it! I had some yummy poolside drinks and food, and the service was great! Definitely one of my new favorite spots.“

“Since I get it probably 5x a week I feel like I owe them the following commendation: the perfect breakfast sandwich. Simply. If you’re in a hurry be advised it is sometimes not the speediest service-wise, but super lovely people all around, and when adequately staffed the place runs smoothly and congenially. Again: the perfect breakfast sandwich. ♥️“
