Restaurants near Rattlesnake Canyon Trail

We were sat right away at a nice table! Food and service were both impeccable! Place is abit smaller than I thought and seating is close to each other! Overall great!

Upon our arrival, we were pleasantly surprised to discover that valet parking was complimentary, requiring only a tip. We were greeted warmly and seated without delay. As we perused the menu, we noted that the prices were quite high; however, since we were celebrating our 20th anniversary, budget was not a concern for us that evening—we intended to indulge fully. Our servers were exceptionally attentive and caring, contributing to an overall perfect dining experience that we will cherish forever. We eagerly anticipate returning with our family in the future. However, I did notice some guests who appeared somewhat pretentious. At one point, a woman loudly discussed her and her husband’s intimate life, which felt entirely inappropriate. Unfortunately, my phone accidentally played a Kenny G song, and I quickly turned it off. The same woman remarked sarcastically to her group, “Like really, we want to hear your music.” I felt compelled to respond, noting that Kenny G is far more pleasant than her inappropriate conversation. It would have been more suitable for her to exhibit a sense of decorum, especially in such a refined setting. Despite these minor disturbances, our overall visit was truly remarkable.

One of my absolute favorite placed in Santa Barbara! If you care about what ingredients you put into your body this is the place for you! Homemade breads, dressings, sauces. Locally sourced. All the dishes are truly unique and special. They change the menu so currently my favorites are the Hamburger, lamb dish, persimmon salad. I do miss their smashed crispy potatoes so I DO HOPE they bring those back!!

The experience was exactly whay we hoped for and then some. We asked to be seated near a heater since they only had outdoor seating left (late November) and this request was met! I’m told they also have blankets if the heater isn’t enough for you. The waiter was extremely accommodating and happily answered ~10 questions for us about the menu before we actually ordered. The food is wonderful as is the service. The free valet is a great perk as well, especially during busy season. All around great experience.

We love this restaurant, always great service and delicious food. A high energy, sophisticated, casual dining experience.
