31 Best Salad Restaurants in Santa Barbara

“I had a great experience at Nick the Greek. The food was fresh, flavorful, and came out quickly. The gyro was especially good with well-seasoned meat and really tasty tzatziki. The portions were generous and the staff was friendly. Overall, it’s a great spot for a quick, delicious Greek meal.“

“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.“

“We stopped for a quick bite after the zoo. Parking can be difficult in the area , but it was a wednesday late afternoon , so finding parking was not too hard. They have a good selection of foods and a happy hour in the afternoons with french fries for 5 dollars and really good macaroni and cheese balls for 7 dollars and a few more selections. The kids grilled cheese was pretty good and there were 2 sandwiches. One of us had a smash burger and was reportedly good. I ordered the specialty hot dog with Chipotle sauce, grilled onions and a grilled jalapeno.It was good not great. I have had there, macaroni and cheese balls and they're out of this world. Their fries are also very good. It is right across from the ocean wall and has a very nice casual ambience.The seating is all outside and was very pleasant. The service was good and everyone was very polite.“

“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.“

“I rarely post reviews, but this restaurant deserves it. I was so impressed from the great quality of the food, fantastic service, cleanliness, and atmosphere. Variety of the food and appetizers on the menu were great, along with the wonderful flavors, and very reasonably priced. Highly recommended, and a must try.“

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

“Little Alex's is a family owned gem! The food is great and the atmosphere is mellow and friendly. At any Mexican restaurant, my first judgement is always about the chips and salsa. They seriously have THE best chips in town. Their salsas are all made in house and run from a very mild but tasty base salsa to a hot that tastes great while simultaneously stripping paint! My personal favorite is their medium roasted salsa, Baja salsa, which has lots of flavor and a fair bit of kick. I or my family have eaten most of their menu here and everyone always finds something to love.

Whether you are a Chiliophile or you like completely non-spicy food, you will find something that makes you happy!“

“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...“

“Awesome kids burger. Juicy, flavorful, and great value. My son loved it.

Fries were possibly best we've tried in town! Service went above and beyond.

Highly recommend and glad we found a new spot for BBQ.“

“💝‼️😁 Excellent food, social atmosphere, fun items like their high-dive Umbrella Drink. So tall from the umbrella the olive can’t see the drink below.

Breakfast was great watching the Pacific, boardwalk, Stearns Pier, and coastal wee we at her.

Not a whole lot to do in Santa Barbara. So this has been a highlight.“

“Best Pizza I have ever tried.“

“This is a wonderful spot for fresh and delicious fare. Not a big place, so best for take out or delivery. Cash, credit/debit card payments.

Known for take & bake pizzas (which are, indeed, quite good) this was my go to for sandwiches. Fresh baked bread and plenty of fresh ingredients and quality meats. Design your own or request one of their signature options. Salads as well, if you're in to that sort of thing.

Highly recommended!“

“Actually impressed with their Deli style Sandwiches , had a Veit nom nom , impressed and tasty and very filling. More stuff with the Italian roll.“

“We had the number 8 & 12 both were amazing!!!! Also we had the Greek salad & the goat cheese & red pepper salad both were incredible 🤌🏻🤌🏻 oh so good!!!! The 2 ladies working were so helpful! Seriously the best! Go here! Eat here!!!“

“The pizzas are so delicious!!“

“Good food and friendly staff“

“Best pizza in Santa Barbara by far 🙌👍“

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

“Super fast service, great food, great price. Highly reccomend the milkshakes, I had the oreo milkshake and its one of the best I've ever had. I don't really reccomend the mac n cheese or the chicken sandwiches, they're just okay, but the burgers are good.“

“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.“

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

“Great quality meat in their burger. Not that, cheap meat, thin smash burger, that seems to be trending everywhere. The biggest sleeper is their salmon salad. It's awesome with great quality fish, dressing, and veggies, which makes sense being that the proprietor used to be the executive Chef at Wine Cast and Bouchon. All ingredients are quality which really matters to me. It's also right by the back bar in the Public Market so you can sit at the bar and have a cocktail or glass of wine while you eat as well. Love it!“

“Rudy's provides excellent value - this is the only Rudy's that has Taco Tuesday special rates. Food is plentiful, Steven is a caring employee, the refried beans are excellent - without lard. Prices are good. Am told the hamburgers are good, haven't tried them. The rellenos are excellent, just wish the sauces were labeled. Kudos to the owners and staff for providing a reliable variety of offerings.“

“Great 👍🏼 pizza 🍕 & cold beers 🍻“

“We dined at The Habit Burger Grill in Santa Barbara and had a great experience! The burger was delicious, with a super tasty meat, and the fried potatoes were also excellent. It is a great fast food option, with a very good cost-effectiveness, especially if you are looking for a quality hamburger. For those who are not at the end of something very expensive, but want something delicious, well worth it!“

“Good food, nice people but the service doesn’t seem to be quite on par with the brand.

We stopped by for breakfast (and sweet tea) this morning because we’re from Georgia and support CFA any chance we get. 😎 The food was good but they only had 2 people working between the counter and the drive through so while they were busy helping customers and restocking they took a few minutes to get to us for refills and a to-go order. Not horrible but unusual.“

“推薦BBQ口味好吃😋“

“My son and I love CPK and decided to stop at this location on our way back to L.A. from Paso Robles. He orders the pepperoni pizza and I get the Italian chopped salad(half) with grilled shrimp, yum! Gluten free of course. I wanted to write this review to highlight the wonderful service provided at this location. There was an issue with a gift card and bonus cards I purchased over the holidays. Our waitress was great and she referred the issue to Stephanie and wow not only was she very kind but she also was diligent in figuring out what happened and quickly resolved it and made sure we were taken care of and happy when we were done. Thank you so much Stephanie!“
