We loved our trip to BibiJi. The food was delicious, we had the butter chicken (my favorite), the lamb, garlic naan and coconut rice. Next time I would get the turmeric rice and a different dish (not the lamb) but it was still yummy. The service was pretty slow but we didn’t mind. The music they play is also VERY loud so definitely not a quiet relaxing place. Great food and wine though!

10/10 This place is awesome! We LOVED the butter chicken and chicken tikka masala! Also, the natural wine is delicious and pairs perfectly with the food! My husband and I cannot wait to visit again! Some of the best food in Santa Barbara. :)

The best Indian food we’ve ever had

I crave their food

The food is transcendent. We’re astonished that this creative South Indian cuisine is available on State St and yet there it is. Unique novel dishes, excellent versions of classic favorites (how is the vada dough so moist and tender inside?!) can all be had here. Pleasant outdoor seating area.

The outside patio in the back is very nice and a delight to be dining there. The service was outstanding and the food absolutely amazing. We would definitively dine there again when visiting Santa Barbara. I would also recommend it to all my friends!

Superbly tasty dishes

As always, the food was excellent, as was the service and Kia’s phenomenal chose of wine for us.

Excellent food and excellent service- our only regret was not having bigger stomachs to order more dishes!

Food was good. Service was lovely. Very dog-friendly on the patio. Would definitely go back
