We had a lovely dinner for four. We tried both types of fish and saw all the other entrees around us and they all were beautifully presented and delicious. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

Our favorite restaurant in Santa Barbara. Cozy atmosphere and attention to detail make it a memorable night out. One of the owners is always buzzing around making sure everyone is enjoying themselves. Food is always great.

We had a great dinner at Barbareno. Fresh and creative ingredients, good wine, and great service in a cute cozy atmosphere! Both indoor and outdoor seating. Great for a date night or dinner with friends.

Love sitting outside on upper deck overlooking SB pier and beach. Come here for the Uni but the yellowtail and blue fin are 10+. Peter is an Excellent server and this dining experience never disappoints.
