    Been coming here since I was 5 years old... my dad would take us here as a special treat. 40 plus years later it's as delicious as ever with that classic char deliciousness and no muss no fuss vibes. Great fries, great classic cheeseburger, great vanilla shake. Be back soon!

    Double cheese burger.

    We had a double burger combo And a chicken sandwich. The prices are very reasonable. The food is high quality. The burger was very tasty. Chicken sandwich very tasty.. Fries were hot and crispy. The place itself could use some sprucing up. No doubt the food is the star here. The ladies behind the counter were working hard and seemed happy. Happy workers produce a better product. It might even be their joint. I don't know. Btw I had a strawberry shake that was extremely excellent!

    The girl who works here no respect

    The person who take orders she is so rude Taking the order and throw the change on the counter only because I know the owner who is very nice and I respect Him I will come back niña tonta.

    A classic staple in SB for burgers. Their burgers are so tasty and made right on the spot! They have a classic menu and great shakes. Their food is made just right. The young man working the register is not very friendly and can have a bit of an attitude which is the reason for my 3 star rating. Otherwise it would be a solid 5. If you don't want to deal with customer service you can place an online order. They have seating inside and outside but it can get busy during lunch.

    Main menu...milk shakes!

    Nothing beats this classic burger joint when your looking for a hole-in-the-wall, grill-cooked, melty-cheese, nostalgia-inducing burger. My family has been coming here for years and plan to keep coming back for years to come. Go with the cheeseburger or Chubbie (double cheeseburger) and get the grilled onions. Standard burger toppings are mayonnaise, lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles. Everything is made fresh after you order it. Including the fries. They don't drop them in the frying oil until you order them so they come out hot with your burger. This place really hits the spot!

    Chubbie combo :)

    After purveying all the burger spots around town - Chubbie's hits all the points in my book. Affordable, hot burgers, and good fries. Their milk shake is also super thick and way better than a McDonald's or In n Out's. Their burgers are better than Habit now too. I only go here now to satisfy my burger craving at a good price :) and stop at in n out if it's really late night since Chubbie's does close early at 8pm. Ask for a side of jalapeños to spice it up! And you can request both grilled and raw onions too.

    My wife and I were craving a burger when we came across Chubbies on yelp. We were happy we found it! I had the Chubbies combo which is a double cheeseburger and my wife had the cheeseburger combo. Burger tasted great! Classic American burger, patty size was great and the fries also tasted great. Also forgot to mention that a double cheeseburger combo with fries and a drink only $10.45! Don't remember the last time I paid that much for a combo. Restaurant has parking in the back. The restaurant has seating both inside and on their front patio. Service was good, our food came out quickly. If you're in the area. I highly recommend.

    It's a hole in the wall, not really a sit down place. The service is not good at all but, the food is really good.

We clearly came hungry We ordered the poke nachos, avocado egg rolls, spicy tuna crispy rice, yuzu buffalo boneless wings, crispy coconut shrimp, fries, and the prosciutto and arugula flatbread. Everything was fresh and really good, elevated bar food with lots to choose from. The spicy tuna crispy rice was probably my favorite! My sister LOVED the avocado egg rolls, which have mango in them and were definitely a fun twist. The only thing I probably wouldn't order again was the prosciutto and arugula flatbread. The prosciutto was sliced pretty thick and cooked almost like bacon, which just wasn't what I was expecting. And the margaritas!! We tried the skinny, guava, and spicy mango and ALL three were excellent. I also loved being able to split and pay the bill ourselves on the little kiosk at the table. No waiting around for the check, which is such a nice touch! Fun atmosphere, great service, good food and EXCELLENT margaritas. I would definitely come back! Only took pictures of the drinks because we were too hungry lol.

    Came to Santa Barbara for the first time and this was the first stop my friend and I made. Holyyyyy…read moreeverything was so good! Great way to kick off the trip. We ordered the nachos with pulled pork, Mac and cheese with brisket, and two burgers. We underestimated how much food was coming out . Not only was it huge portions, everything also tasted so good. The people taking our orders were also super sweet.

    Funk in Public…read more Family-owned and operated local chain of restaurants and butcher shops that's been serving the Santa Barbara community for over fifty years (ca. 1973). This location is in Santa Barbara's "Funk Zone" district, which was formerly an industrial area that's turned into a wine and art district full of interesting places to gander. The Good: * Huge dog-friendly covered outdoor seating * Full lineup of their signature Shalhoob craft beers. They also have fermented grapes and liquor, if beer isn't your jam. * Service was friendly and welcoming. * Street Parking and City-owned lots, as well. The lots are your best bet, and they're free for a short while. * Prices are very reasonable for a BBQ place. * The Street Corn app might be the best thing we ate here as the corn was super fresh right off the cob, and the Chipotle aioli was superb. * BBQ Beans was more of a bean soup, but it was decent. * Mac & Cheese was also pretty good. Carrots enjoyed it more than I did, but I might've been grumpy from the shitty meats (more on that in a minute). The Meh: * Tritip was completely dry and tasted like it was cooked in the oven and then finished on the grill. But, I will say, at least it was edible unlike the ribs... The Ugly: * Maybe the worst ribs I've ever had. They were just completely hammered with salt and completely blew out my palate within two bites, which is a shame because they were tender and cooked well, but jfc, no amount of sauce or anything is going to save something this salty. Conclusion: Maybe we just caught them on a bad day because a place doesn't survive for over fifty years serving up meat like this. I'd be willing to give them another try someday, but I need my tongue to recover first.

    Over all these years, I have avoided the Funky Zone for various silly reasons. But for a while now,…read morewhen I visit my friend's auto repair shop downtown, he always gets Turkey Burgers from here. Always looking for places to have solo lunch, I finally ventured to FZ. There's no sign. I drove by several times and parked, determined to find it. It was next to Lama Dog. I ordered at the window from a very friendly and efficient staff member. I found a nice bar-height communal table inside a super cool restored warehouse with awesome indie music jamming, also surrounded by big screens and sporting events. I ordered a bottled Arnold Palmer from the bar, not realizing the bottled drinks are self-serve. Nevertheless, the bartender kindly got it for me along with a glass of ice. Now here's the best part: the very best Turkey Burger I have ever had--way better than any take-out before. It's topped with garlic aioli, avocado, melted cheese, lettuce, tomato, and crispy skinny onion rings, just perfect. I also ordered the fries with truffle and Parmesan--absolutely delicious, though a bit too flavorful, which overshadowed the turkey burger's flavor. I've tried both sweet and regular potato fries here, and they are excellent too. This place really hits the spot. Can't wait to come back.

Was enough for us to share between two. Creamy and cheesy, but could've used more lobster. Would've expected a better lobster to macaroni ratio with this one. Prices are a little steeper here. It was $25 for the Lobster mac & cheese, which I would've been more open to with a bit more fish in the dish. Plus, when I go to grab a beer, I'm not necessarily wanting to pay $20+ for a burger without fries. That being said, it's still a good spot to grab some food while drinking a beer at Lama Dog.
