Where to start? I usually only write reviews for bad restaurants OR phenomenal finds.
We found this unicorn of a restaurant a year ago on a weekend trip to SB. First night: phenomenal. Decided to come back the next night. A year later, today, we celebrated our anniversary here. In all aspects, Dom’s should be a Michelin starred restaurant, but I would even say that starring Dom’s would be an insult. A Michelin starred restaurant could not compare in terms of hospitality...read full review

We had such a great dinner here, the food was amazing, service was amazing, atmosphere was amazing. We took 1 bite of the cheesecake at the end of our meal and immediately ordered a second it was that good
Dom’s never disappoints, I always sit at the bar because it’s relaxed and chill usually easy to get a seat at, service is friendly & their playlist is elite. My favorite thing to get here is the pea and artichoke pasta and the steak frites. Both dishes are super tasty and filling. I love the cocktails as well, they make their own syrups. 🙌🏼

Dom’s Taverna Santa Barbara is a gem of a restaurant with amazing food, service, and atmosphere. Every ingredient in each dish is thoughtfully selected, and the hospitality makes guests feel so happy and fulfilled. The beef tartare with roe and truffle chips is melt in your mouth perfect, and the mushroom dish is cooked to perfection with a super tasty sauce. The fettuccine seafood pasta is just as good every time, and the basque cheesecake topped with passion fruit is the best—so soft yet dense. The wine selection is insanely well curated, and the cocktails are great, with their own syrups. The pea and artichoke pasta and steak frites are super tasty and filling. The atmosphere is bright, fresh, and very open, with cute lighting and great music. The service is friendly and timely, and the bartender knows how to make cocktails. The food is excellent, though portions are very small given the price point, and it can be a bit pricey for the amount of food. The crudo, pasta, papas, and drinks are fresh and full of flavor. Prices are comparable with most upscale restaurants in Santa Barbara. It is a great spot for a good cocktail and a go-to date spot for fresh seafood. Highly recommend for a date night or get-together with someone special.
