The short rib Mac and cheese was exquisite, the service was superb. Reanna made good recommendations and was a joy during our interactions. I understand why the locals come back and I will too!

Cocktails and vibe are really good for Goleta and had one of the best rib-eyes my first visit. Came back a second time on another day and ordered at least one of every appetizer. The egg rolls were meh, but everything else was delicious and the service was great.

Staying at the hotel the restaurant is in, The Let’s Santa Barbara, and tried Caya based on a recommendation of a local patron. I ordered some Margaritas at Happy Hour and they were excellent. For my meal I ordered the Salmon & Soba Stir Fry. It was phenomenal! Great flavor and the salmon was grilled perfectly. The superb bartender, Christina, told me the dish is new. It needs to be around a long time!

Enjoyed a pleasant dinner while staying at the Kimpton. Space is beautiful out on the patio when the weather allows.

Came here impromptu for our anniversary bc we didn’t make plans and wanted to try the neighborhood place anyway. Not a good decision. The food is not good. Everything is bland, not seasoned well, not cooked quite right, and over priced for what you get. We had the hummus trio, spring rolls, carnitas tacos…all bad. The spring rolls were really bad with the rice paper wrapper bunched up at the ends so it tasted and felt like eating folded paper, and there are maybe 1-2 tiny shrimp per roll.

Not very many vegetarian options which isn’t in and of itself a deal breaker but the one entree they did have – mushroom pasta – was surprisingly bland tasting like kids pasta cooked without salt in the cooking water, coated with trace amounts of butter, and sprinkled with some lightly sautéed mushrooms and cheese. Under seasoned and unremarkable.

Very underwhelming all around. Stayed at the hotel and didn’t feel like going further for breakfast/brunch.

Unfortunately my chicken was raw. The server did her best to deal with the situation- however raw chicken is never an easy thing to overcome.
