“If I could give this place more stars I would!
It was eight of us yesterday and we get to try many different tapas and everything was amazingly delicious.
It’s not our first time to dine there and the experience is always more than satisfying.
All and all the food is delicious, service is excellent, super friendly people and a great location!
Highly recommend ?
One more: don’t forget to try their Sama Sama “The Peacock Chardonnay”.“

“We stopped here without reservations and were able to get a table with 30 minutes wait time. We went for a nice stroll and came back. Enjoyed our food and the ambiance. Service was a little slow but it was a very busy night and our waiter apologized for it. We kind of knew going in that we may have to wait for food to come out as it was very busy. We had a lovely evening“

“Really good all around. A bit over seasoned on the black garlic ponzu on the avocados and the pickle was too salty on the tomatoes in the wonderful tomato dish. Everything else was great especially the mussels and the local sea bass platter. I look forward to making it back there soon.“

“good portions in the tacos. very tasty and fast service. the line seems overwhelming at first but moves fast. Will definitely be back, when in the area.“

“Walked into this cute taqueria to grab a quick lunch to go. Service was great and I was pleasantly greeted by the front employee. I got a beans, rice, and cheese burrito with chips and salsa. I got my food within 5 minutes and on my way! I’d only had wish I’d gotten more chips but all in all I loved it!“

“The lightest, buttery moist scones. They also had hamburgers and salads that looked were very generous portions. All was freshly made. The silverware was REAL silverware.“

“Everything I’ve tried on the menu is outstanding. Fresh ingredients and creative combinations of flavors, herbs, spices. They make their tacos on site, and all portions are substantial. I love the al pastor tacos with chunks of pineapple on top. The Colima ceviche is sublime perfection, and the plátanos are the perfect sweet compliment. The mango margarita with tajin on the rim was delicious.“

“Ensaladas y mariscos en realidad todo está riquísimo“

“Great food and ambiance, we had a great time. You can tell everything was made with great care and precision. Cheers to the Chef and the staff for a great dinner! Can’t wait to return!“

“Never had tapas like these! Loved it! So sad we live in Europe…would go there everyday! It was soooo jummy!“

“Passing through and needed to charge across the street. Figured tacos would be a safe bet, turns out these are not just safe, but amazing. Some of the best street tacos we have had. Al Pastor is top notch, and the salsa bar has some super tasty choices. The habanero salsa verde is so good I am sneaking out 2 little sauce cups for the rest of my road trip. Staff is friendly, everything is super fresh, even the pineapple.“

“Very good food very nice“

“For Me And My Family Coming Here For The First Time We Are Extremely Greatful For The Entire Staffs Customer Service. Everyone Has Been Trained Very Well And Take Their Job Serious Because Everyone Was Respectful:) All Of The Dishes We Ordered Were All Satisfying. My Friend Was Not Having A Good Day And We Left Very Satisfied. We Are Locals and I am So Thankful That We Had A Wonderful Experience. We Took Food For Another Family Member And Was Also Left Satisfied. We Kept Making Compliments On The Food. We Will Definetely Be Going Back For More To Keep Trying Different Food And Drinks. Now I Also Know What Will Make My Friend Happy. Her Birthday Is Around The Corner I Definetely Want To Bring Her Back And Surprise Her:)“

“The place is very nice and the tacos are great! It’s at the heart of the beautiful city of Santa Barbara Ca. I took a picture with one of the owners of Casa Comal. He knows hospitality!“

“This place is great! My non-vegan family members loved it, too! Delicious desserts, also! Definitely recommend!“

“I love this place. Amazing vegan options at a fair price, with regular specials. Friendly team, large falafel sandos. 10/10 will eat again.“

“Tondi Gelato was the perfect touch for our rehearsal picnic 4 months ago! James is so passionate about what he does and he only works with fruits that are in season. When we went in for our tasting, he had so many great flavors for us to try that it was hard to pick just a few! His gelato comes in a cute little wooden cart and his service is fast so your guests won’t be waiting in line for very long and will even be able to enjoy seconds. James is extremely friendly and professional and we’re so happy we hired him for our picnic.“

“Very friendly service.
Food was very good, but not the best Indian food we've ever had. But yes: we are demanding and, as we all know, tastes differ. The butter chicken was too mild for our taste. Actually practically zero sharpness.
Lassi is super delicious, as is the samosa - a dream.“

“We stopped by during a cruise day and I am so glad we did! We got seasoned chips and salsa when we were seated. I ordered the ranchero breakfast plate and my husband ordered the carnita tacos quick plate. Both had very large protions and came with a small soup and salad. We were so full and neither of us could clear our plates. With both meals, drinks, and a tip we spent about $40 which we found appropriate. Staff were very kind and attentive and the business helps the community. Overall, we felt like we were visiting family or long time friends. 10 out of 10“

“I love the food excellent flavor, really good tacos crispy tacos, salsa, salsas are so good“

“Stopped here while in Santa Barbara for the day and DAMN. Some of the best ice cream I've had in my entire life. Tried the earl grey and shortbread, mango sorbet, apple cider and cranberry jam, and eureka lemon and marionberry. All fire, but that lemon one was over the top delicious.“

“Delicious high quality plates, selection of wines and great service. We tried all their entrees, one of their desserts, and everything was de-li-cious. Highly recommended.“

“Had an amazing birthday dinner with my wife,at our favorite table. The food was brilliant and the staff always attentive. I was so surprised when Kayla came out with a birthday treat with my name dripped in chocolate. We so appreciate your dedication to detail and look forward to our next visit.“

“Food and service were great, but the atmosphere would have been a lot better if the tables were at least 6" larger and didn't have people standing at window counter within arms reach, while wait staff negotiates access in the in- between space.

Parking: Parking was very scarce, but were lucky to take a space in the alley as someone was vacating it.“

“For the best coffee in town that is tasty, doesn't give you acid reflux, smooth, and wakes you up come here. Great quality. I go here every time I am in town. You can sit outside in the beautiful courtyard drinking your strong, yet smooth coffee. I hope they stay here because it's a great place to wake up too.“

“The Mussels are my favorite. For dessert, I always enjoy the crème brûlée. Excellent service and wonderful atmosphere.“

“Friday Bingo After Dark 10/10 recommend for the fun host and great atmosphere! Food, drinks, service, and music are all excellent. I had the Aloe Margarita and the Margherita flatbread ?? they also have tabletop games like Cards Against Humanity and Connect 4“

“I can't even say I have a favorite. It's all good. When you bring home a warm loaf, all is well with the world.“

“Absolutely fantastic premium Indian food. I’ve never had Indian food this good. Fresh and high quality ingredients and everything is extremely authentic. You can tell the cooks know good Indian food. Fabulous outdoor patio and real Indian drinks like Lassi, Indian Lemonades, Sodas etc. Didn’t have room for dessert but I’m sure it’s good. The Lamb Korma and crab cakes and garlic cheese naan are out of this world! Best Indian you will ever eat pretty sure. Enjoy! Friendly and efficient service with a smile too! Thanks Apna!“

“Wonderful food. Friendly staff. Beautiful atmosphere.“

“Had the best meal of my life in June on their tasing menu. I'm very passionate about food, so this was life changing for me. It was a birthday dinner and their staff, including an owner, went out of their way to make our experience special and memorable. Thank you!

Wheelchair accessibility: Downstairs area should be accessible, but doorway is smaller and there are stairs to the top area.“

“Best view and service in town. Food is outstanding“

“Great food , I did 3 appetizers and a main. Was far too much food, but I wanted to try different things. The 5 spice noodles and Kimchi on the side was my favorite !“

“Great food and service. Beautiful location.“

“Staying in the Santa Barbara area? This is the perfect quaint little stop for a good meal. Nestled on the side of a mountain road, the main old stage coach restaurant is open until 4PM and serves amazing wild game chili. Outdoors they also serve the best BBQ tri tip sandwiches. I highly recommend topping the sandwiches with their horseradish sauce. Service was very good and kind, I also thoroughly enjoyed the ambiance with a live band playing outside the bar while we were eating.“

“Lots of flavors to try and they are tasty“

“This is probably my favorite place to visit when in Montecito. Vodka martini and a burger go so well together and you never know if you might have a celebrity encounter. I've had a few, but always play it cool. Don't want to be 'that guy'.

Parking: Parking is in the underground garage. Always get a space for lunch. Not sure about dinner.“

“Great dinner experience... very busy for a Tuesday night. The placed was packed. The service was excellent and our food was wonderful. I had halibut with a coconut curry sauce and the Mrs had Filet Mignon with a brandy peppercorn sauce. Both were really great. Highly recommend Intermezzo.“

“Great food n services! Amazing“

“Never been to Santa Barbara but I believe this is the parent of the Los Arroyos in Carmel, Indiana. I could not find a page for them, so please forward my message if you can. I wanted to extend a huge thank you for the outstanding food and service we received at the Los Arroyos in Carmel last Friday afternoon to celebrate my husband’s and another’s retirement, you all did your very best to make it special and I truly appreciate you all!! Thank you so much!“

“Honestly I am extremely critical with food places- especially Mediterranean food, but I am extremely impressed. All of the flavors and execution were excellent, and it was so quick and fairly priced. Somebody really knows what they’re doing and I’m stoked on it“

“This morning had a strong and rich latte with a delectable lemon blueberry tart. Simply scrumptious!“

“I've been a loyal customer at South Coast Deli in Goleta for the past two years, visiting twice a week, and I've tried everything on the menu. Their food never disappoints! My all-time favorite is the Chicken Caesar Sammie—it's absolutely delicious and always hits the spot. The staff here is warm and welcoming, making every visit a pleasure. It gets busy at lunch, but ordering online for pickup is a breeze and saves a lot of time. Highly recommend South Coast Deli for anyone looking for fantastic food and great service!“

“Nice bar ( take any seat ) order at the counter. Good vibes from the live DJ on the board walk. Delicious Sprizz!“

“Wonderful empanadas and beer“

“Beautiful place, amazing staff and delicious food and drinks! I definitly recommend.“
