Got two recommendations for IEats and checked out their Yelp for ideas. Wow, so many mixed reviews. Some love, many do not. The place had a cool rustic, very open space. Two XL communal high tops seat a dozen. 3 or 4 smaller low boys. We lunched on a Monday, busy but not packed, good energy. We ordered a Banh mi to share. $17. it took a while to get, but looks like pork cutlet is fresh to order. Sammy looked incredible: well charred bread/roll, piled high with veg, good size portion. My first bite was nice, fresh mint popping through the slaw and shredded carrot. The pork was tasting a bit bland. I flipped it over to see if more flavor would register, it did. Some sauce, maybe spiced mayo, Hoisin. It was slightly underdressed for me but not sloppy, refined. Later bites some sauce was coming on strong, improving. Enjoyable to the last Last bite, but not great. Very Good. Saw a pizza in the oven and it looked very small 9-10". Great looking options for toppings though. Service at the counter was friendly, plenty of staff dropping plates, napkins& flatware. Another asking my needs at the condiment station. The beer fridge caught my eye with a Chimay Blue but didn't see much local stuff. Diverse. I did see a couple of Goleta beers from down the road, so there was some representation. There were some political mementos and signs I didn't appreciate. It makes me think twice about supporting a place. I would say pretty good all around, glad we came in. Worth the visit but not sure Id come back. read more

Oh my. My favorite roadtrip spot to stop for a meal. The food is unbelievably fresh. I got a salmon carpaccio, which was a little small for a full meal but the waitress told me that when I ordered so I knew what I was getting myself into! But the taste was better than I could've imagined. Open seating, has almost a brewery vibe to it. read more

LOVE this place! It's a bit funky and unusual as in you wait in a line and order from a menu that is displayed on clipboards and roll-paper, (which can be a bit confusing), but the food is spot on. It's a farm-to-table delight and everything is so fresh. Best pizza and although the menu is a bit meat heavy, they still have things for vegetarians like me. Neighborhood vibe and casual shared group seating in some places. DO NOT miss Kaena Grenache on tap for a mere $10!!! read more

Hip place! It's mostly communal seating (order first and then find a seat). During the evening, it may get a bit busy with large parties. It seems like a spot where a lot of the locals come to (everyone seemed to know each other). Apparently you can bring dogs inside too. Menu had variety and options. For the banh mi, I loved it. It was very flavorful and I enjoyed the fries. They also have a pizza oven, but unfortunately we didn't order it. You can grab a drink from the mini fridge and pay at the line. Parking is shared with other stores around, but it's a huge lot so you shouldn't have issues finding parking. read more

***** crème de la crème ***** I've enjoyed Industrial Eats for over a decade and get especially giddy when it's been decided that we're going there for a meal . Janet has carried the torch since its inception. She and her team offer up their standard fare such as memorable pizzas ( i .e. house made fennel sausage ), extraordinary sandwiches ( their turkey sandwich made with house baked bread and 1 sauce & one oil drizzle are absolute heaven ) and delectable salads ( Caesar salad, beet salad or the smoked duck salad that just can't be beat ). Industrial Eats also offers daily specials such as their salmon with asparagus and mash or rabbit for the adventurous. A couple of nights ago I ordered their rack of lamb. The side dish and gremolata that accompanied the lamb were both indescribably scrumptious and the perfect compliment to the entrée . Industrial Eats continues to provide our valley with Michelin - level gastronomy. This is no hype, rather an observation from a patron who's eaten here a couple hundred times. Sandy and I appreciate your hard work, dedication and professionalism that shines through on every visit. See you soon Darren. read more

I almost don't want to write this because I don't want to expose more folks to the unbelievable GREATNESS that is Industrial Eats! I drove about 30 miles for their Caesar salad. It is garlicky and delicious. I also beyond highly recommend the white shrimp. Why I love IE: I solo dine a LOT and the dining room here is family style so sitting with strangers is to be expected. You are never alone! Even though you wait in line to order, the servers continually check on you throughout your entire experience. Industrial Eats is an experience and I will continue to recommend them over every other restaurant in Santa Barbara County! read more

This place is a treasure. It's unique, food is amazing, portions are great. We get here as much as possible. Skirt Steak pizza is amazing.

Visited Industrial Eats Monday night 4/21/25. We showed up 20 minutes before closing and we're greeted by Kevin. He welcome us if it had just opened up. Young lady at the counter answered our questions regarding some menu items. We decided both on the filet mignon served with a medley of mushrooms and mashed potatoes. The potatoes provided a smooth and creamy canvas for the steak that fell apart with a tug of the fork. The the mushrooms and sauce with chard, delicious. Next we will order the white shrimp and I understand the ham sandwich is not to be overlooked. read more

you know when you walk into a place and you just know the food is gonna be really really good! That's the feeling I got when I walked in here. Even when I walked in there were someone there that welcomed me even asked if it was my first time in the place. Person that took my order was super super helpful in guiding my decision on what to eat. The ambience is just like the name industrial, but really really cool I cannot wait to go back and try something else and they do have a pizza oven that was cranking out delicious pizza read more

This is one of those restaurants that I will always stop at if I am passing through the area. I've tried the Caesar salad, pizza, Shepards pie, escargot, French dip, pulled pork sandwich, and their chanterelle mushroom soup. Everything was delicious! I love the unique menu they have and always make a point to try something new. The one thing I have gotten every time is the Caesar salad. I'm not a huge salad person at restaurants since I can make a pretty good one at home but there is just something special about it that always hits the spot. The general seating and decorations make it a fun and casual environment to enjoy their food. Service has always been very nice and they are always helpful in recommending delicious new things to try. I'm planning a weekend trip soon and I'm going to plan it so we can stop by on our way to our destination. read more

Heard lots of good thing about this place and never actually been. We've always passed by it on the way to the wineries. Well, there's a first for everything. It's just off the main road in a little strip with 2 other businesses. Parking is kind of limited in the lot but street parking is available I believe. Restaurant alone is not big so it does get pretty busy. You order at the register and then seat yourself. A it's basically communal seating and it's pet friendly. They do offer beer and wine. Menu wise, a good selection of pizzas, sandwiches, sandwiches and small plates but shareable. Pizza oven on site which is nice. Food comes out when it's done versus all together if you have a big order. Pizza was great as well as the shrimp dish we had. From The looks of everyone plate, everything looked amazing and chatting with the person sitting next to you was great. Overall, good vibe and food. It does get busy and ordering line does get long. read more

The food is fantastic as is the service. The seating on metal stools and chairs was extremely uncomfortable. I would do takeout next time.

Not only was the food incredible but so was the hospitality! Walked in starving and tired & they were quick to help us. They accidentally promised a free meal assuming we were with someone else & even though we insisted on paying they refused since it had already been said. Left a big tip in the jar & enjoyed a delicious meal. Integrity and good ass food. read more

What in the Industrial Eats has happened?! I have loved and raved about this place for so long. I would even say , 'one of my favorite places to eat in California' - but when I went recently that sadly changed. Imagine if your favorite rom-com like , When Harry Met Sally , was suddenly a Hallmark movie - you'd be disappointed! Upon ordering the woman at the counter could care less what we had to order - was it because there was a long line? No , we were the only ones there. So we asked about oysters - a staple at Industrial Eats- none. They stopped ordering them we were told. Ok, ok no problem let's order the fennel salad, grilled cheese and soup and miso cod. My friend and I are big foodies so we wanted to start with that and add more if we wanted to. The salad came , but to our surprise an addition was in the salad, arugula. That wasn't on the menu. It was a weird addition and over dressed. Ok ok so let's see about the soup and grilled cheese that came out about 20 mins later. As we watched dish after dish come out to a group who ordered after us we were thinking this is 'hanger' - we are hangery but also why is it that our food is coming after? Let's see how this goes. Oh my gosh! The soup came out in a water glass! And the grilled cheese wasn't warm. It had clearly been forgotten and left out. It was gross - and again the soup in a water glass?! So we asked for a bowl. They gave us what they had as a bowl , but no matter what the soup came in it still wasn't good. Now, the miso cod , let's see how this goes... it did not go well. The cod was burnt. Like so burnt and it was swimming in sauce and nothing else was cooked. It was such a bummer. We didn't even eat it. So for a meal that cost nearly $70 dollars it felt like a disappointment on money not well spent, a meal that was so gross , cold and a place I loved for so long. It didn't ruin our road trip but now I know I won't be going back. And that is a bummer. I will say, they seemed under staffed and maybe that affected the evening. Either way I hope they can turn it around. read more

Love this place! Came here on a whim after seeing rave reviews not just on yelp but on the internet. Some of the freshest ingredients all around! I loved the uni, oyster and avocado as you could taste the freshness and the brininess of the oyster. I loved the tiger shrimp as well and it paired so well the bread and garlic butter flavor. Tried my friends' dishes and I loved the skirt steak pizza as the beef flavor really shined through. Solid and kind service and will be back if I'm in the area! Ambience is more casual with wood furniture and tables. Will be back for sure if I'm in the area! read more

Easily the most unique spot to eat in the valley. Communal seating, farm-fresh ingredients, and a constantly changing lineup of amazing dishes. There's always a dozen or so specials, plus a full wall of menu items scribbled on brown paper--love the vibe. Portions are just right and made for sharing. No table service--you order, pay, grab a seat, and then boom, incredible food shows up. Laid-back, unpretentious, and absolutely delicious. read more

My first time here as I've gotten so many recommendations for this place so I was excited to try it out! Friendly cashier who helped me understand the menu as I was looking for a salad and pizza today. I went with the Caesar salad and the Gorgonzola and bacon special of the day pizza! Overall delicious and very satisfying as the Caesar salad had the crunch I was looking for and the pizza had the zestiness that satisfied my palate! And by recommendation went with the Kaena Grenache! It was so good it was just like fruit juice!!! Perfect compliment to the garlicky and sharp Gorgonzola cheese pizza!! I'll definitely be back for the fennel Salad and looking forward to trying more food from their unique menu and variety of foods! What a super cool spot and cool place. Oh and people are friendly here got lots of smiles and answers to my questions. They are all working hard here...that's no doubt! Great 80s in the background, everyone chatting and cool ambiance and I will definitely be eating here again! read more

Gluten free options, farm to table, amazing quality! White shrimp and a Ceasar salad less the croutons. Delicious

We had been to the area several times but never had stopped by. It was a Saturday around 5pm and the restaurant was a bit noisy for us, so we ordered two pizza's to take back to our hotel to enjoy with wine we had just purchased.. the pizzas we excellent. read more

I do like this place. Food is mostly always really tasty. We had never had their pizza though and heard great things so decided to try this evening. Maybe we ordered the wrong one because it was nothing special. Over priced for size and amount of toppings. We ordered the fennel sausage mozzarella tomato pizza. Very little cheese and almost non existent tomato, a fair amount of sausage, crust was a little under baked in middle. We'll skip the pizza and stick with their other food. read more

This spot is a must! Whenever we visit Santa Ynez we have to eat here. Beer selection is always on point. But the food, holy smokes! I kid you not you will crave their Caesar salad for the rest of your life. So garlicky and delicious. I've had countless Caesar salads, but this one takes the cake by far. The white shrimp is super good too. The pizzas are to die for. We got the fennel sausage pizza on our last visit and it was bomb. read more

The second time I came out here and again loved it. I ordered the brisket sandwich and Brussels sprouts. I will say the sandwich was not as great as the Cuban but it was still yummy. The Brussels sprouts are different than the typical appetizer you get from other places. It's lighter on the palate, more citrus-like. read more

Stopped by again on my way to Santa Barbara and tried the chicken pesto pizza, which was excellent! The crust was amazing, and the flavors were well-balanced. However, the pork noodles were another story--they were incredibly salty and basically inedible. Although she mentioned there was salt at the bottom, the entire dish was overly salty, except for the pork itself, which was cooked perfectly. I hope they can adjust the seasoning because, as it stands, it's not a good option for anyone watching their salt intake, especially those with blood pressure issues. read more

This is such a funky find and a change up from many of the other restaurants in town. We went with the non-pizza options and we were pleasantly surprised with the quality and portions of food that we got. Their bread is also fantastic and the chef gave us a loaf of sourdough to go! read more

Very delicious and great vibe. Warning, though, it is popular and a line forms early and keeps getting longer. I'd say it's worth it however. Love it for lunch during a long day of wine tasting. read more

Ordered the margherita pizza and didn't have much flavor other than the char of the crust. Caesar salad was fine, but the lettuce could have been cut smaller. Overall, not much food for the price. read more

Love love loved my smoked duck salad that I had here. One of the best salads I've had in my life. The ingredients were so fresh and the price was reasonable. $18 for a salad that includes smoked duck, figs, apples, marinated red bell peppers?! Yes please. My husband got the fennel sausage pizza. I loved their crust because I love things that are extra crunchy and this was exactly that. We will definitely be back the next time we are passing through Buellton. It was packed the Saturday after Thanksgiving and for good reason. read more

Super cute plenty of parking. We stopped here for lunch and a beer shared a pizza and a salad. Both are amazing.

This is a must eats if you are visiting or live in the area. Reasonable prices and great ambiance.

Friendly service. Casual vibe. Order at the counter and find a table. Drinks in the fridge, beer, cider and wine by the glass also available. Reading the reviews - Everyone raved about the Rueben, so I ordered the Reuben and it was good but the bread was a little over toasted and little greasy overall. The frisée on the side of everything was less than appealing to me and my group, but the four star review is really for the short rib Shepards pie - definitely one of the best I've had ever. We all agreed my sister's order was the best, even on an 85 degree spring day. read more
