Love love love the food and service is excellent.
I’m personally addicted to their carrot cake but their lunch counter is simply gorgeous, filled with gorgeous gourmet salads and sandwiches. ❤️
Really excellent brunch. Everything is baked in house and you really can't go wrong. For sweets, the cinnamon roll is a must. For savory options, the bialy is excellent, and I really enjoyed it with lox and smoked trout dip.

Merci Montecito is a charming restaurant known for its impeccable sourdough toast and delicious raspberry jam. The menu offers a variety of options, including the famous chicken pot pie and the exquisite chicken payard with almond flour, one of the greatest meals on earth. Customers love the French-style offerings, such as the duck fat potatoes and chocolate chip cookies, as well as the fresh, local, and delicious food. The kale salad is amazing, and the falafel special is perfectly spiced, textured, and one of the best in the United States. While the food is fresh and delightful, some wish for more plant-based vegan choices on the menu. Located conveniently with easy parking and cute outdoor seating, Merci Montecito is a great pit stop between LA and SLO, with a cozy and adorable atmosphere. Customers are advised to call ahead to reserve the delicious cinnamon rolls.
