Love it!! Was excited to see this place open after being under construction for so long. Perfect place for a cocktail and quick bite. Thanks Bruce, we’ll be back!

This is a new place in Santa Barbara, and we absolutely loved it. Amazing bites and great cocktails.. highly recommend for a good cocktail spot

My new favorite place for a great drink and bite to eat! They’ve got great wine and cocktails, and their small plates are excellent. My favorite appetizers are the grilled cheese toasties(must order) and the French fries cooked in beef tallow. My Old Fashioned was pretty good and the bartender definitely knew his stuff when it comes to spirits. The music and ambiance is always super welcoming and a great time. This is the best place to stop for a bite to eat before heading out to a show or event downtown!

As a local resident and business owner, my wife and I had been completely offended by the rudeness of the Owner (Mr Kevin Boss) who acted like a totally teenage schoolkid by deliberately muttering as he walked past our table on a quiet evening how we were spread out too far across two tables and continued to gossip and point towards us with his GM. After asking him whether there was an issue, he apologized for offending us! What business owner would behave in such an immature and unprofessional manner?We feel sorry for the employees and Mr. Kevin Boss clearly should not be in the service industry! We recommend if you want to be treated well, without any attitude, go to the Good Lion a short walk away.As a business owner myself, in times like this, it’s a terrible shame such poor service stems from the owner of the establishment. Will NEVER return!

Very welcoming and relaxing environment with excellent service! The starters and entrees exceeded bar expectations and were served promptly. The professional and clean atmosphere matched with high end furniture and design provided the perfect night out. Can’t wait to come back!

We had a couple of well mixed drinks and some awesome snacks- sardine toasts and grilled cheese toastie
