Best Casual Restaurants in Montecito

Excellent food, service, and atmosphere. Can’t wait to return!

Such a special place in Santa Barbara and a great addition to the dining scene. The food, service & ambiance are fantastic. The flavors and selections are creative, fresh & delicious! The level of consistency is what makes Secret Bao one of the best places to dine in SB.

Came here to celebrate our anniversary and I have to say the location is great, the view was amazing, the ambiance is nice, the food was pretty good, however, we were a bit disappointed with the service. It took forever for the wine to come, we had to ask for a few things several times, and one of the items we ordered never came. The waiter was apologetic at the end but it did somewhat spoil our overall experience. I hope the restaurant sees this review and works on improving their customer service because it’s a really nice place.

Second time for lunch. Great burger. Love the truffle fries. The dessert menu still lacking

Went here on Valentine’s Day at 2pm for lunch. Had a great experience, they had a special menu. Everything was delicious including the lemonade. Service was great from a young man working that day. Was super windy outside so luckily we sat inside and we were one of the only ones, definitely a great experience.
