23 Best Salad Restaurants in Santa Barbara

“Delicious food and great portions! The chicken shawerma plate was perfectly seasoned and tender, and the fries were crispy and flavorful. The side salad was fresh with just the right amount of feta. Loved the pita and dip too — everything tasted super fresh. Friendly service and a nice outdoor setup make it even better. Definitely coming back!“

“Ordered ahead to beat the lunch crowd - good thing I did, this place was poppin! The T’N A Panini is where it’s at - literally the best sandwich I’ve ever had. It’s a large sandwich, you may only eat half right away, but get the whole sandwich, you’ll want that other half later - SO BOMB! Highly recommend this place, and definitely use the site to order ahead. Lots of parking, easy to get to since it’s right off the freeway. Will be back when I’m in the area.“

“I've been going to the Blue Owl with my daughters since it opened. The food is fantastic. The vibe is the closest to being in a late night New York eater. I always feel home here. And of course I love the Tuesday night open mic comedy. A staple in the Santa Barbara Comedy Scene.“

“My wife and I really enjoyed our last day brunch here. Ww were seated immediately. We had an awesome waiter named Ben. He was very attentive, gave wonderful suggestions and his tableside manners was warm and welcoming.

My wife ordered the Floretine omelet with home potatoes and pancakes. I ordered the corned beef hash plate with bacon. We both ordered a mimosa flight. Ben was very accomodating with our flavor substitutions. Everything came out hot and delicious. We both loved all of what we ordered.

Lastly, the place and the Halloween setup is to die for. They really outdid themselves and we enjoyed the vibe!“

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

“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.“

“We went to happy our at Little Alex's yesterday and were very happy with the whole experience. Very reasonable prices, good happy hour food and drink options, large beer selection compared to similar places, tasty salsas and bean dip, and a nice dog-friendly patio that doesn't face a busy street. Multiple vegetarian-friendly options.“

“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...“

“Best Pizza I have ever tried.“

“This is a nice sandwich place in Santa Barbara! All of their ingredients are extremely fresh and they have plenty of sandwich options. While I did appreciate the meal, I felt as though I could probably have made the sandwiches at home, especially regarding the high price. Moreover, their bread was just average. Nonetheless, worth to check out for lunch.“

“Good food and friendly staff“

“Been hitting this spot on the weekends , but will not as much anymore , i get their sandos, it's great sandwiches liked going here when they were a bit less expensive, prices everywhere is sky rocketing and the competition now to where I feel like I can just go somewhere else for same quality and price! Overall they are great ?“

“Was so good. We loved having dinner under the olive trees. Can’t wait to go back.“

“We had a wonderful family meal, the service was excellent, the staff was friendly and accommodating!“

“Wow what a hidden gem! Really tasty, flavorful offerings and so affordable. I was impressed with the variety and quality. I got a half sushi tofu sandwich and a half turkey cranberry sandwich and was full for $8. Both dishes were really thoughtful and looked nice, too. I happen to live nearby and I will be stopping in frequently.“

“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.“

“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).“
