New American Restaurants near Montecito, CA

“We thoroughly enjoyed our experiences dining at the Revere room during our stay at Rosewood at Miramar. We enjoyed breakfast each morning, as well as dinner. The food and ambiance were wonderful. I cannot say enough about the service! Eduardo was exceptional. Morgan was also fantastic. The list goes on! Ivan, Logan, Parker, Jada… The service at the Revere room is an extension of the incredible service and guest experience at Rosewood at Miramar. The staff is so attentive, knowledgeable, warm and welcoming. We were treated like friends who were guests in their home. They worked together with such efficiency. Rosewood at Miramar has created an incredibly special place and the Revere room is no exception. Highly recommend. Thank you to all who helped to make our experience a great one!“

“The Calamari, Brussel Sprouts and Short Ribs were the tables favs. The brownie Sundae was a happy nostalgic treat. I love that you're able to choose both vanilla and chocolate or just one flavor if you'd like. Renee and Christina gave exceptional service. Would absolutely return. Thanks for making our birthday celebration special.“

“Food is fantastic and so delicious!“

“Friendly staff. Great Happy Hour specials.“

“A great place for celebrating! You always have a great experience at The Palace“

“Long life to this place ! What a discovery! 🤩
I had already been to Gulfstream and loved it, and this place is just as amazing. Food, quality, and service are a solid 10/10. Everything was served in just 5 minutes, and although the salad came out at the same time as the main dishes, when we asked for the check they told us they wouldn’t charge us for it because it had been “late.” Honestly, we hadn’t even noticed! Such a thoughtful gesture we even asked them to please include it because we enjoyed it.

It’s the little details like this that make a restaurant stand out from the rest. Definitely coming back!“

“My wife and I just had an amazing 1 year anniversary dinner here! Fernanda was a spectacular host and server she gave great hospitality! The food was delicious, I had the duck and my wife had the lasagna both delicious. For dessert, we had the berry cake which was DANGEROUSLY delicious. If you’re in the area, gluten free or not, check them out!“

“Our server,Cole R, was awesome-very informed and articulate. Food was amazing-cannot overstate the incredible preparation and presentation of the prime rib!“

“Great place, was hoping it would be a bit more lively for a bubbles & brunch meal, but it was fairly quiet and mainly hotel guests. It was fine, but not what we were hoping for as far as the environment. Food was great, service was outstanding, but again, it was not busy. Would definitely give it another try.“

“If you're looking to make a lasting impression on your special someone, this restaurant is an absolute must-visit. With its refined ambiance, exquisite cuisine, and impressive wine selection, it offers a truly exceptional dining experience. Having had the pleasure of dining at numerous Michelin-starred restaurants, I can confidently attest that this one stands out from the rest. Upon arrival, you'll be greeted by beautiful gardens and breathtaking views, leading to private bungalows. The staff's warm hospitality and welcoming smiles further enhance the experience. For a truly unforgettable high-end dining experience, this venue is an absolute must.“

“The pan-seared peppercorn-crusted filet mignon with potatoes au gratin and sautéed asparagus were as good as I've had anywhere. Thick, small and perfectly cooked medium-rare. And the thinly-sliced tomato salad was the perfect starter. We brought our own wine, but their in-house selection is outstanding. The staff were all extremely courteous and helpful. Our waiter, Dominic, was professional and attentive, and we never felt rushed. We enjoyed a two and a half hour anniversary dinner in a lovely outdoor setting and will definitely revisit when we're back in Santa Barbara! Thanks to everyone at Bouchon for a very special evening.“

“Excelente atención , buenas ubicación“

“Intermezzo by Wine Cask is a true gem! The restaurant boasts a stunning atmosphere with gorgeous decor and perfectly set lighting, creating a wonderful ambiance. The service we received was truly phenomenal – our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience even better. We tried the pizza, fries, and chicken, and each dish was outstanding. The quality of the food was evident, and everything tasted incredible. This was an amazing experience, and we can't wait to return. Highly recommend!“

“Everyone is Very pleasant“

“I've been going to the Blue Owl with my daughters since it opened. The food is fantastic. The vibe is the closest to being in a late night New York eater. I always feel home here. And of course I love the Tuesday night open mic comedy. A staple in the Santa Barbara Comedy Scene.“

“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! 😊“

“Tuesday around 2pm, not a rush day or time at all, sat down at the bar for at least 7 to 10 minutes, not one employee approached me to ask if I wanted something to drink,eat, etc.
I noticed a few others sitting there at tables and the bar, no attention to them at all, drinks were almost empty etc.
The employees (4 ) that I could see, seemed more into their own laughter and discussions than giving attention to customers.
I noticed two employees, male, walking through the kitchen doing the same thing.
I walked out, went elsewhere.
New to area, etc, maybe this is normal here?
Hopefully management may pay more attention to the customers than the waiters themselves.
Just my first impressions and I'll try again next week perhaps?
Revised and impressed.
Much better now, christian and Jennifer are great at the bar, Monday, Thursdays I come here to watch some football, etc. They are great, enjoy the interactions and good times.
Thank you for these two bartenders and the overall experience now.
Much better,
Trent.“

“I’ll be honest. I could have eaten anything in Santa Barbara. I hadn’t eaten anything since 9am and it was 5pm when I arrived in Santa Barbara. I walked one mile away because of the great things I heard about Jill’s Place. And you know what? I was not disappointed! I was stoked and impressed greatly 🥰😁 I had two wonderful, dazzling, and sweet waitresses (lucky me!). I was served a yummy chicken breast sandwich and it was the best one I had ever! No seriously! It wasn’t too salty and the bread was golden brown and ready to be munched on. The tator tots had the perfect texture. It’s almost as I had food from some amazing restaurant, which, hello, I did 😅 The place was packed, since it was Fiesta, but I imagine it always is. It sucks I live 45 minutes from this great establishment. The atmosphere was fun and a little country, but I love that. It’s casual, and not some elegant place like Lucky’s is. I’d still show up in a suit, if I could and would. Definitely check this place out and ask for the two blonde sisters who work there. They’ll dazzle you with their charm and diction 😉 Hope to be back again one day!“

“No complaints about a good sandwich.
Clean
Better than Jessy mikes, definitely better than Subway, more practical than South Coast deli.
Interior is... old school but comfortably functional. With full backed and shaped seats and full tables“

“Food, service & location is amazing. Blackened halibut sandwich was delicious.“

“We stopped here on our way driving back down towards LA and so happy that we did! The most amazing breakfast we have had in a long time! I had the Banana Bread and it was amazing and my husband had the Wagu wrap which was out of this world. Coffee was excellent and they cooked my bacon exactly like I love it! Such a great stop for our trip!“

“friendly staff and great customer service. had the Jessy's salad. It so flippin good, as was the lobster mac n cheese and artichoke dip. we will eat the tacos for dinner...we couldnt eat any more!“

“Love Love anything that Norbert is involved with. All menu items are super delish.“

“Alex is the best! Food is great, and the service is amazing.“

“Great place great beer and great food“

“Great place great vibe! We stopped for a quick drink coming back again next in Santa Barbara“

“Fantastic food and outdoor party possibilities! Service was slow, 2 bartenders with a line out 2 doors and waitstaff no where to be found. I’d definitely return maybe not on a weekend night, but the food and drinks were great.“

“Taylor thanks so much for helping our large party get accomodated. We haven't been in yet but are excited for our reservation. Taylor was such a huge help, got us in contact with the right person, and was pleasant and professional. I reached out to several restaurants in the area but none were as responsive as the ladies at Blackbird/Californian. Thanks again!“

“My son and I love CPK and decided to stop at this location on our way back to L.A. from Paso Robles. He orders the pepperoni pizza and I get the Italian chopped salad(half) with grilled shrimp, yum! Gluten free of course. I wanted to write this review to highlight the wonderful service provided at this location. There was an issue with a gift card and bonus cards I purchased over the holidays. Our waitress was great and she referred the issue to Stephanie and wow not only was she very kind but she also was diligent in figuring out what happened and quickly resolved it and made sure we were taken care of and happy when we were done. Thank you so much Stephanie!“

“Love this restaurant, great service and their menu keeps getting better.“

“absolutely the best chowder . artichokes and fish are awesome. Great service today from Manuela ! highly recommended 👌 💯“
