Look, I get that in Santa Barbara you pay an up-charge for the experience of "eating food in Santa Barbara" but paying 17 dollars for a salad that could have fit in a sandwich bag with room to spare is another level. The young woman serving us was kind, however, the only time she voluntarily interacted with our table was to ask if we'd be paying the $20 dollar cover charge to stay for the "live music" - a band that made themselves known by a shotgun blast of speaker feedback that ruptured eardrums upon soundcheck. The printed menu was missing at least 30 percent of the items listed on the website, and the restaurant was completely out of it's NA beer options. Ultimately, we paid 65 dollars to eat out of a food truck parked at a garage in the funk zone. Am I missing something?

Had high hopes with all the great reviews but am disappointed. Probably a good vibe on warm nights with a band. Food did taste nice. Friendly service. But, standing in line to order, a long line, was annoying. Then the drinks flowed. Cocktails good, wine old and turned...Food showed and that was the real disappointment. Honestly I was shocked at how small the servings were. And how old the lettuce was in the salad...probably won't be back

I took my aunt, uncle & girlfriend here because they had oysters (which were great). I was extremely satisfied with their wine & fries but their funk burger was one of the top 3 burgers I have in my entire life. It caught me off guard in the best way. I highly recommend!

Website said it is now open on Wednesdays. Yet we found it closed. No notice that they were closed on this Wednesday. A friend and I planned our 3 mile walk on a blustery day around stopping here for dinner. if a restaurant is closed when it's website says it is open, people can be disappointed. A chunk of them will not return. The cooking apparently happens in a trailer and tables are outdoors. No signage or website notice about it being closed, just a separate business inside the same fence that confirmed WWTF was not open. No explanation or prediction as to whether closed-on-Wednesdays is the new normal.

This place is a VIBE. We wanted a casual lunch in the Funk Zone and had this on our list to check out (s/o to other Yelp reviews). It was a beautiful sunny day which added to the overall aesthetic of this hip beer/food spot. We ordered the Sister Golden Pear Flatbread and the Funk Burger. Both very delicious and worth the unique blend of flavors put together by the staff. Also paired our meal with a refreshing hazy IPA from MadeWest brewing. Great spot during the day with groovy music. Sounds like an even better time at night when there's live music. Will definitely have to come back!

Update #2: day 3 of 5 that we came here...I am addicted to the house fries and flatbreads...just come here already! It's so good!!!Update #1: We were at La Leiff Winery, and they let us order food , and they brought it over the winery! Talk about businesses working as a team! We also had some shell in our order of oysters, and the owner brought us an order to replace what we had. That says A LOT about the business that that care enough about the quality that they will fix the issue! Thank you so much Ted!!!Really enjoyed the food, we were so hungry and the food was so appetizing, we devoured it without a thought. The Shroomin' Flatbread was deliciously balanced with garlic, truffle, mushrooms, and flower petals. The House fries have a delicious chili and lime flavor with a lemon aioli dip (which are addicting, we have ordered them everyday they have been open since our visit here in Santa Barbara). The fries are honestly addicting with a great texture. I also had the salmon sandwich, which was a really lovely salmon filet on a brioche bun, which a delicious seaweed and cabbage slaw.Not only is the food really tasty, but the music is super FUNKY!!! They definitely live up to their name!Wheelchair accessibility: No steps at all, you roll right up to the business

Great spot in the Funk Zone! Elevated food truck with a cute patio and inside bar area. Ordered the ceviche, burger, and a flatbread which were all delicious! Will definitely be back.

Lots of great things about this place - the owner was really friendly, and love the concept of comfortable dinner party, with oysters and champagne at the forefront, and hip, funky murals. We were excited to try the wood-fired oysters w/ sake soy glaze and micro radish, so ordered a half dozen. Unfortunately, they were not good - very fishy, not fresh tasting. We tried the P-Funk pizza with crushed tomato, mozzarella, prosciutto, arugula and hot chili oil, and it was better, but not quite as good as we hoped; same w/ our daughter's salmon sandwich. But overall, enjoyed being able to talk w/ friends on the patio, and had some nice wine and beer. Highlight was the Hugo spritz - definitely try that!
