Mission Santa Barbara is a historic California landmark that also doubles as a museum. They even…read morehave actual mass in the mission, as well as Sunday service. It is a beautiful space filled with so much historic value. It was founded in 1786!! We got there around 3pm and purchased the Self Guided tour for $17 per person, which was a little high in my opinion. You walk through the museum and Mission grounds at your own pace and enjoy it on your own time. There are QR Codes that provide information to go along with your tour. We checked out the museum, garden, mausoleum, and even sat in the church for about 30 minutes just enjoying the beauty and peace. There is a gift shop you exit through that sells some lovely items such as shirts, sweaters, magnets, artwork, sculptures, candles and so much more. We bought a nice sweater with Santa Barbara written on it, a beautiful candle in a glass, and a small bookmark with a prayer symbol on it. They even have snacks/refreshments. They close at 5pm but sell their last ticket at 4pm. Parking is also free, which is always a plus. This was our third time here over the last 2 decades, and I'm not sure it's necessary to come back again. Once you've seen it, you've seen it.

I've enjoyed plenty of tasting menus and have worked with amazing chefs around the country and this one was just absolutely memorable and very filling. Service was top notch. We requested a booth to allow us to enjoy the surroundings and just watch all the plates come out. Every course was such an experience. I requested the cheese platter for my dessert, which I believe was around $50 extra....it was worth every cent. The cheese selection was just incredible. I can not wait to be able to enjoy a meal here again. You won't be disappointed.

Fantastic first experience at Caruso's last month! The ocean view was beautiful, with the…read moreindoor/outdoor vibes, plenty of heaters for warmth, a live pianist playing, and the service was excellent. It is worth mentioning that it takes a little time and is a little challenging getting to the restaurant from the valet area, for those who might be a little physically challenged or slower moving. I do believe that they have an elevator to take you down to the restaurant level though! Reservation-wise they have two options, the four course Prix Fixe menu (which I chose) and a three hour Chef's Tasting Menu. For my menu, I was able to select from about 3-4 options in every course, and there were some available add ons as well. I loved the La Mora Messicana NA Cocktail, it paired nicely with all of my dishes and still felt fun and margarita-esque. Of all the dishes I ate during the evening, the standout for me was the Yolk Gnocchetti Sardi Risotti with Stephanie's Uni Santa Barbara Abalone, Yuzu, and Caviar. It somehow combined all of my favorite things and made what felt like a comfort dish, but elevated. The Chef's Bites at the beginning and end were also delicious, I loved the little blueberry tart. I would definitely return for another meal here, and recommend it to friends or family.

The menu here is short and sweet and everything was all ordered was sensational. I had a very good Caesar salad that was made the right way with a ton of anchovies My entree was a GRILLED SHRIMP Lemon, Butter, Garlic and Calabrian Chili that I loved The ambiance here was more subdued than the other four RH's I've been to, and the service was exceptional as always. Our outdoor dining here in Montecito was eloquent and we had perfect weather for this reunion.

I have been coming to summerland for 30 years . This restaurant has been a constant disappointment…read more We used to come here because of the lack of choice. We go here now for a change and still frankly a lack of choice. This place has horrible food. It is slightly better than a middle school cafeteria. The food is obviously Sysco systems garbage. People line up here for the environment and of course the lack of choice. I have wanted to review this place but I keep hoping something will get better. I really love the staff and the location but the food is absolute crap. I hope the owner either changes his or her ways or they sell the place to someone who cares. There is no excuse for serving this food to people especially for the prices.

You cross a stream of water a third of the way. What's missing is direction, or sign at intersection, there is one sign that said "trail" but which trail?

The view is gorgeous. You can see a dam and the city of Santa Barbara. Easily one of the best hikes.
