I was here on Monday so it’s not too busy but highly recommend to make reservation for the weekend. Food and service is good. Salads serving size is pretty big. Very nice and classic decoration inside and spacious patio. Recommended Spinach scallops salad and Filet Pasta. For drink: Suntory sour is delicious.

We had one night for a great dinner in Santa Barbara and chose Opal at the recommendation of our Cheshire Cat B&B host, who said Opal is popular with locals.

Judy C

We enjoyed an outstanding dinner with an equally outstanding waiter (Eric). He nicely managed our group on a very busy night. He was kind and professional.

The bread and its dips were the most consistently delicious thing on the table maybe I just got unlucky with these particular two dishes: wild mushroom risotto and their signature paella.

Tiffany Moseley

I loved this place, I went with some friends, but it would be perfect for a little romantic date night. The service was excellent, the dishes were reasonably priced, the venue is small and quaint. For an appetizer we order the prawns wrapped in phyllo and they were excellent; the sauce that was on them was so delicious and perfectly paired with the cabbage and oranges. I ordered the chicken Marsala, it was tasty but a bit dry. My friend ordered the curried salmon, I wish had ordered that instead.

This was a very nice restaurant. Relaxing atmosphere and servers were attentive. Food was really good. The Salmon was perfect and very fresh!

New Year’s Day 2023. Super cold night. I loved all the pretty lights from the tree and the starlights on State Street. Opal is a restaurant I have always wanted to try but had always thought it was out of my price range. Saved a little and was able to partake. My friend ate all “Starters” and drinks. I had a personal pizza, a drink, and dessert. The staff was friendly and went beyond. In a world that seems to have forgotten what Customer Service is, Opal has not. Opal is on State Street by the Arlington Theatre. Give it a try. It’s awesome!

Bren Walker

We went to Opal in search of great paella. Unfortunately, Opals was only good, too much liquid in the rice. The warm seafood salad was excellent. Service and atmosphere top notch.

Brian Coker

Wow! It’s been awhile since I’ve been impressed. The service is good but could be faster. I had prawns with a coconut sauce that is above the rest. Wife and mother in law had the seared ahi and that was amazing. Brother in law had a salad pizza (he went big at a fancy restraunt) that I really could not beleive how good it was. Nephew got the ribeye and that was very good. This is a place that everybody should try. I’ll be back later with an edit since my other nephew is still tasting food. Oh by the way sister in law Lisa said tacos were a little mayonnaisey.

What a lovely evening. Great company, harvest drink and amazing sea bass.
