A lovely view with a fresh mojito and lush sandwich. Perfecto!

Beautiful view and great food. I went here for breakfast and had the boathouse egg benedict. It was delightful. Lots of food.

5 stars for the view alone! This is the closest I have been to the ocean while dining and the beach is beautiful. Like another reviewer said they don’t even have to have good food - but the food is good! Nothing mindblowing but still a solid meal and not super high priced either considering the location. Worth it to go!

Great place in Santa Barbara for casual dining with amazing views. I do feel it is a little overpriced but worth it for the location. Service is adequate but I wouldn't call it five stars. And the building itself is in need of a little repair. There is always a long line for the only two restrooms. However, it has a great drink venue. Been there twice and will definitely be back.

Unbelievable nice location. But the food is mediocre. Tortillas are far away from crispy.

Located on the beach at the north end of Santa Barbara. Grat views. Weekdays less crowded, weekends get super crowded.

We got excellent service from Braden. He made our birthday celebration just great. The location was great with the water front view.
Better to sit behind the wind screen or indoor for more comfortable experience, and you can always walk outside for a few minutes to enjoy the beautiful beach views.

Kathy (the hostess) placed us fast and with the nice view.

Thank you guys for your welcoming hospitality.

The Boathouse is ... and has been for years ... my favorite lunch spot in Santa Barbara!

All I can say is WOW. Found a hidden gem with a kind of isolated location and fantastic view of the Southern California coast at sunset. Great service, phenomenal food. I got the sea bass which melted in my mouth. My husband got the grilled scallops with risotto, which was phenomenal too. This was the best seafood dinner during our Santa Barbara trip.
