28 Best Burger Restaurants in Santa Barbara

“Just love the food and the employees always greet me with a smile. I am definitely a regular customer. Keep it up Chubbies!!!“

“Not like the good Olde dayz...but habe at it...hard to enjoy when you used to eat here before the franchise mania....og location but even they are getting really sloppy. Chargrilled....not hardly anymore..most places only use a flat top. Not the same as I remember. But then that's life. I like Sam's to go up the street now...“

“We just had the best customer service experience at Mesa Burger! Three young men—Damien, EJ, and Nathan—took our order, served our drinks, and brought out our food. They were attentive, polite, and so thoughtful in the way they cared for every customer.

We also noticed how hard they worked to keep the restaurant clean and welcoming. It’s rare to see such maturity, teamwork, and genuine kindness in young employees.

Kudos to Mesa Burger for hiring and supporting such outstanding young men. They truly made our meal a wonderful experience!“

“Friendly staff. Great Happy Hour specials.“

“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! ❤️“

“The vegan burger (plus the combo fries and drink) is amazing. Probably the best clearly-labelled vegan burger you're going to get in the area, since it has a good patty, a good bun, and a delicious thousand island sauce, and the vegan options in IV are lacking… $10 for a vegan burger, fries, and drink is better than almost any place I've been to. Fast service, but you eat in a cafeteria-like setting. Haven't tried the black bean or hummus burger, but I'm sure they're good too. I come here every week as a lunch between my classes.“

“Increíble vista, buena comida“

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

“It's nice to see a familiar face behind the counter. I recognized the lady from the Milpas Street location. I've never been to this one.

Parking: Unlike Milpas Street. This HABIT is located in a mall area. So there's plenty of parking to choose from.“

“They call their own burger the best one in SB, but I would say about the classical hamburger I tasted, that it is rather on the nivel of fastfood like BK ?. However, you can add very tasty hot Peperoni, jalapeños and several (hot) salsas for free. To conclude, a nice meal with fair prices.

This restaurant is located directly at the state street in the very central downtown, which leads to a large spectrum of customers. Old ans young, students and retired people hispanics, tourists...
Dont worry about parking, the garage directly adjacent to the restaurant offers free parking for the first 75 minutes.

Wheelchair accessibility: Streetlevel“

“they are so Lovely, and have an adorable food“

“The cinnamon roll was fabulous. We also ordered a breakfast bowl. I was a bit skeptical about mac and cheese for breakfast, but I think I've come around on that matter. You can't beat the atmosphere, the restaurant is across the street from the beach where you can watch the Santa Barbara beachgoers frolic to and fro.“

“Our waitress, Sophie, was the nicest ever! I have a gluten allergy, and she helped out so much with what was safe and what was not! The fries were the best I've have in a long time (and I haven't had gluten free fries eating out)! I wish there was one closer to us!“

“Friendly, knowledgeable service. Clean, warm, peaceful environment Amazing menu Quality lunch Thank you- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Who can go wrong with Kyle?“

“Underrated and less crowded than the Arbor. Apparently they used to have amazing grilled cheese, but I haven't seen them selling grilled cheese since covid. They have some pretty good lunch options. They close earlier than expected, so make sure they're open if you're planning to stop by in the afternoon.“

“Adele was our server today. He was amazing, the cashier woman working, the bussers, and the rest of the staff are all stellar. I’ve never had a bag experience here, and regularly do business meetings here. The employees are hardworking, sweet, and kind people who make it worth it eating at a chain restaurant.“

“14$ for a nice Chicken fillet sandwich! Very nice price compare with other restaurants inside the market, and taste really good! The seasoning of the Little Bird sandwich is quite well balanced , and the chicken fillet is already better than the chicken katsu meal in wabi sabi ( I do ordered both).“

“Dennys upper state street! Santa Barbara The perfect birthday party location! Neptune Radio 📻 reporting...“

“(Translated by Google) Excellent ? place..The food with a good seasoning and delicious ?.It's just that it's very hot inside at noon...Above all. They are friendly and good vibes(Original)Excelente ? lugar..La comida con un buen sazón y delicioso ?.Solamente que adentro hace mucho calor al medio día...Sobre todo. Son amables y buena onda“

“After calling around a few local places, I finally found somewhere that not only had great food, but also great service. Martin answered my call, and was amazing, all around. Very friendly, attentive, and patient with my order.6 stars if I could. Great family meal offerings. Don't miss out on this deal!“

“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.“

“They are so friendly all the workers there specially these employee her name is Alma she works there 5 days a week & all the employees there @ Milpas McDonald I will recommend you to go there is a nice & best fast food we went to they treat the people so nicely there pls have your family come to Mc Donald's here @ Milpas have a GD holidays everyone & god bless to all 😍😍😍“

“Amazing service and good. The decor was great. I ordered the chicken shawarma wrap and chicken Sharma platter. Both were great. I let our server know we would be driving back home thst might and it ws about a 3 hour drive so he checked in with us multiple times and made sure we had a great experience. Pricing is very reasonable for santa barbara. Highly recommend!!!“

“Stopped by after a local recommended this place and it was well with the stop for drinks and a great snack! We had frose, burgers and tacos and everything was so delish! We especially liked that it was dog friendly and had a puppy menu! 🐾“

“This McDonald's is nice with the old play area. Unfortunately it does not have a drive thru. So you either get off and order inside or you have to order on the app to for pick up/be brought outside to you. Customer service and food was good and service time was good as well.“

“Best day ever.“
