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!!!“

“I wish I could give 10 stars for the service; it was above and beyond! I didn't thoroughly check out the menu before I started to order and ended up making several changes. The young man taking my order was so kind and helpful. I had the Downtown burger on sourdough, oh my goodness so tasty! The sweet potato fries were the best I have ever had, it is nearly impossible to get them crispy without burning them, but they did it! These sweet potato fries alone are worth the trip!“

“The sounds I was making while eating this burger would've made you think I was cheating on my significant other. That's how delicious the Santa Barbara Double Char was! Highly recommend if in the area

Thank me later 🤪

Vegetarian options: Impossible Burger“

“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! ❤️“

“Friendly staff. Great Happy Hour specials.“

“Awesome place to shop for yourself and family“

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

“Who can go wrong with Kyle?“

“Their Toucan chicken sandwich is really really good. Make sure to ask for extra napkins, you'll need them. Cobb salad and tempura green beans great too. Those are my favs and only thing I order so can't speak for rest of the menu. Casual, clean, bar atmosphere, lots of TV's with surfing and snow boarding. Pleasant staff.“

“Increíble vista, buena comida“

“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“

“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 are so Lovely, and have an adorable food“

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

“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.“

“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!!!“

“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“

“Great place with excellent service. This building used to be a house and then a couple of other restaurants with expansions before becoming an IHOP. In the center is a tree that has been there since the mid 1800's. The structure sits around the tree with glass exposing views of the tree.“

“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.“

“We had our civil ceremony lunch here with our close friends and family and we had an amazing time. From the planning process with Anthony, Assistant Director of Food and Beverage, to our waiter Jake, and Manager Sabit, the staff were all attentive and really accommodating. As soon as we got there, the staff came out and introduced themselves which we appreciated. We had one special request for a Vegan dish and the Chef went above and beyond to accommodate. Overall, the food and drinks were amazing. Huge thank you for making our special day that much more memorable. We will definitely come back. Thanks all!“

“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!“

“The manager here is very friendly and helpful. I can't remember the last time I had mcdonald's and said yum but this time I was very much enjoying my meal, the deals here at mcdonald's BOGO for the double cheeseburger is unbeatable. The staff as well deserve the biggest commendations for being speedy and friendly when it's busy. Highly recommend here“

“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 review is long overdue and unfortunately really really wanted it to be a 5 star! I’m a food courier so I come here (as well as all the fast food chains in SB/Goleta) almost every night. I especially come to the 24 hr restaurants bc I work the graveyard. When I come in and see their lead Marcella working I immediately know it’s going to be a pleasant visit! This woman and her team just kill it every single time! It can be wall to wall busy or dead as can be but no matter what Marcella always has a smile and always welcomes me with genuine warmth! She clearly can see how hard I work and she’s even asked me how I was doing as a rude customer was non stop ranting at her for some stupid reason! She works so hard and obviously cares very much about her job here. Her team listens to her and responds so well that you can tell they have much respect for her. It can get really crazy busy there especially on the weekends after the bars close. She handles the insane amount of sudden orders like a boss and keeps the drunkards at bay! If I could I’d write you a novel about the last fiesta weekend where I thought for sure she’d break I would! I was literally stepping over drunk people that Saturday night! She kept her composure, never hesitated, stayed calm and professional and pushed out those orders like it was nothing! If she’s not already she’s deserves max pay! At least a future manager! Bravo Marcella! Easily my favorite late night employee!
So I really dislike giving bad reviews but they lost a star bc on 2 nights a week (I think) there is another lead who is the complete opposite of Marcella. In fact I wouldn’t normally even say anything except that this girl hates me for some reason I’m not aware of. Everytime I come in and she’s the lead I know that she’s going to first give me a super horrible dirty look, ask me what I want or just nod with an eye roll (which I’ve learned means what do you want), act extremely annoyed and put off, put my order on the counter without saying a word or even looking at me (I’ve actually waited for her to tell me it’s my order and the running time is 16 minutes she let me stand there), never saying hello , goodbye thank you just nothing. I’ve tried asking her if I’ve done something? Just looks confused. I make sure I’m polite always greeting her saying thank you but no matter what just loathes my presence! Which would be fine if I deserved it but honestly can’t think of any reason why she’s so rude! I literally avoid going there, decline nice paying deliveries when she’s working…. So I knocked off a star. Ultimately I recommend this location I’ll just hope that the rude girl likes you more than she likes me. Marcella is a rockstar!!“
