ADDITIONAL AVAILABILITY ON OUR WEBSITE : TinRoofBistro.com After soaking in the TRB’s Santa Barbara mission architecture, you’ll enter and be greeted by a triple arched Brunswick mahogany bar. Large bowls of colorful citrus for making cocktails sit atop a twenty-foot long bar perfect for grabbing a glass of wine or a bite to eat. As you explore further towards the display kitchen, you enter our lounge, also referred to as the wine library. Knotted wood shelves display our wines, divided up by wine region. Windows surround the North side of the dining room, allowing our guests to gaze out onto the fountain in our courtyard. I describe the décor as thoughtful and collective, creating little vignettes for dining areas. We offer two separate outdoor dining experiences: our courtyard with full service and our front porch great for appetizers, drinks and lounging.

Went for Valentine’s Day party of 2. They had completely champagne, a special menu for the day. Service was very quick, was checked on multiple times. Food portions were very nice and big, everything tasted amazing.

Food and service are fantastic. Unfortunately, about 20 minutes into our meal, a couple got seated next to us with a dog. Twice the dog came over and sniffed our plates (begged for food?) and once later he locked my elbow. Very bad situation, but the manager said CA law does not allow them to refuse customers bringing their pets.

First time for $2 burger Tuesdays 3-6pm. Decent burger and bought $6 happy hour zucchini fries along with a beer and companion’s wine. Zucchini fries were good but not many of them. Excellent service, friendly and efficient. I had a reservation which is important because it gets busy.
