An exceptional dining experience. While the narrative behind the dishes, rooted in Santa Barbara’s history, sometimes felt a touch overstated, it hardly detracted from the overall brilliance of the meal. Our waiter was attentive without being overbearing, consistently refilling our water and checking in. The culinary delights continually surpassed our expectations, prompting us to indulge in an extra bottle of wine, another meal, and even two desserts – which we usually forgo. Our enjoyment was reflected not just in our extended stay and added orders but also in our gratitude shown through a generous tip. Admittedly, the service waned slightly towards the end, but given that we were thoroughly enjoying ourselves and unintentionally closed the restaurant, it’s understandable and easily forgivable.

We hadn’t been here in a year or more and it was an error. We had an amazing time. All dishes were tasty. The service was also very well done. We will come back!

We hadn’t been here in a while (don’t remember why) and boy were we impressed. Absolutely fantastic food, presented beautifully, and the service was perfect. Sarah took care of us this evening and she helped us navigate through the menu like a pro. Everything was perfect. We will definitely be back.

We loved this restaurant. I had the grapefruit sake spritz and Kombucha (alcoholic). They were so subtle and refreshing. They used big chunks of tuna for Crudo. The New York stripe came with infused smoke, which made already amazing meat tastes even better. The BBQ brisket was so tender and amazing! They had amazing desserts, but we were too full to have them. We will need to come back. 🙂

We went for our anniversary and were excited to try a new restaurant. They had imaginative dishes, but their sauces were very salty and overpowered their dishes. I was disappointed not being able to taste their acorn ravioli due to an intense miso (salty) sauce. The Santa Maria BBQ was the star of the show as it was not covered in sauce and the meat was excellent. Their French press coffee was another weak disappointment. If you go, get sauces on the side. It’s also quite expensive.

We had a great experience here! Everything was delicious! It was my husband’s birthday and they brought him a dessert at the end that was so good! Our waitress was amazing and very attentive.

The food, ambiance and staff was fantastic! Everyone knew so much about the food and we enjoyed all the stories each meal and it’s local significance. My only regret was not getting more photos of my food. The plating presentation of everything was fantastic!

Loved the fun take on local classics. The tuna crudo was awesome, we loved the texture in each element. Mussels were fresh, and the homemade sourdough that presented itself a few times on the menu was great.
