Very good sourdough base pizza bothe white and margherita very good, my preferred place when visiting SB

I got a slice of the Figgy Piggy and they warmed it up for me. I was skeptical of the crust being a little burned at first but it actually want and was crisp in a good way. The fig and bacon went really well together. Solid piece of pizza that wasn't heavy and a great price! read more

The BEST NYC style pizza I have ever experienced in CA. Very well done. We had a margarita and OMG, it was like being back at Joe's in NYC. Very reasonably priced also. Sitting inside takes one back.... I am in love and will be back as soon as possible to our now favorite pizza in CA. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! read more

Yo! This is a MUST HAVE experience for all foodies. I've lived in SB for 18 years. I'm from NJ. I know proper pizza--gourmet and family style neighborhood pizza. This place is BOMB! Gourmet flavor and a local "mom & pop" ambience. The pizza was GREAT. I appreciate the free old school '80's video games you can play for free while you wait and hang out. The folks who work here are super gregarious and kind. 2 slices will fill you up for sure. I'll certainly become a regular at this place. So glad it's here!! If you remember and appreciate the OLD BLUE OWL from Back in the day (new owner now, food tastes different) then you'll love this place. Same went! She's awesome. Thank you! read more

After a long afternoon of walking and shopping the farmers market, I was craving something delicious and filling. Saint Bibianas had this pepperoni pizza I cannot forget. It is definitely a sharing size which I mistakenly forgot to ask but I packed my leftovers and ate them on the train back home. I also ordered this giant chocolate chip cookie they had the counter which was the perfect sweet treat to end my day. The staff was friendly and informative as I asked questions and opinions. I actually got there just as they were opening and maybe 10 minutes after people were trickling in and I could tell this was a local favorite. The place was adorably decorated and had enough seating for family and friends. Definitely coming here again when I visit Santa Barbara. read more

While the ambiance at Saint Bibiana reminds us of a no frills New York pizza joint, the pizza blew us away! The sausage with ricotta was one of the best pizzas we've ever eaten and we eat a lot. The crust is light and crisp and the sauce is perfectly tomatoey and not sweet or over spiced. The toppings are so tasty on their own. Please go to Saint Bibiana if you love pizza. read more

these pizzas were tasty! my favorite was the lemon mushroom we also got a side of roasted cauliflower without knowing it was tossed in a salad! It wasn't bad, the dressing was just a little bit too sour. the girl at the counter was friendly and service was great! the inside is cozy and super small. a very rustic feel too. i love it! luckily we came at an off time so we got a table to sit down at~ lemon mushroom: 9/10 pepperoni: 8/10 roasted cauliflower (salad?): 7/10 read more

The lemon mushroom pizza was so yummy! We came here after discovering our usual pizza spot was temporarily closed. The pizza here was good--a nice second option. The restaurant is smaller and our group of 6 couldn't sit at the same table. The kids loved the free arcade games. The pizza took a little while to be ready, but the games helped. There was a pitcher of help yourself water. The staff was nice. read more

Came here for dinner and ordered 2 pizzas for 3 people and had plenty left over. The place itself is small and cute, and the pizza is decent. The lemon mushroom pizza was particularly interesting since I haven't had anything like it before. Overall I enjoyed the place but nothing particularly stood out which is why I'm giving it a 4 star review. Solid place if you're craving pizza, plus the service is nice! read more

Saint Bibiana is one of my family favorites. The food is amazing and has to be the best pizza in Santa Barbara. The service is amazing and the whole ambiance makes you feel at home. Saint Bibiana's is kid friendly and even has two arcade machines. Seating is limited so get there early but if you are ever in Santa Barbara, you have to come check this place out. read more

Good news and less-than-good news... this place has a kitchen that is putting out the MOST DELICIOUS PIZZA (?with the most phenomenal crust) IN SANTA BARBARA!!! However, when I discovered it on Yelp inno way did I think this was just a casual pizza slice place because the food has such stellar ingredients, for sure they could transform this "pizza joint screaming for a new vibe"into a beautiful dining spot with full service. Instead, it's woefully understaffed, and the woman in front is doing an amazing job, it's a wonder she doesn't quit on the spot, but she loves the place and is quite dedicated to it. But still it's hard to order from anyone who is multitasking like an octopus!!! The place to sit is in the tiny table outside but both times they were no chairs there so I had to move furniture so me and my guest could enjoy this wonderful pizza spot, a spot t that really doesn't look like ALL that much but it IS all that much! It's SUPERB!!! They should open up a kiosk at the San Ysidro Ranch, it's THAT good!!! Hey, a girl can dream.... No one expects to go to the BEST pizza spot in town and find video machines which are not only a waste, they take up space for customers and highlight what should really be highlighted at this place...the phenomenal pizza!!! The lemon mushroom ‍ pizza is next level phenomenal!! Same for the Margarita pizza!! When I came here during the day, it was sunny and delightful, but at night, it's sort of a comedy of errors, and that made me a little sad. No organization, out of many types of pizzas, etc! So...if you know of any hard-working people that are looking to work, this place is hiring and they don't want someone who's going to come and go. They want someone who's willing to be a team player. For now, the walk-in customer is secondary to the delivery orders, and that should not be the case. Looking forward to coming back here many times, but hoping that they will evolve into more than just a "slice joint " because what they are doing is better than all the rest. No doubt! I'd love to see them tackle a vegan pizza free of ANY kind of cheese, just tomato sauce and all kinds of colored olives!!! Bring it on! ‍‍‍ PS I met Eric Estrada's agent here, if it's good enough for the guy who manages the best looking guy on a motorcycle ever to be on television, it's good enough for you too! read more

First time staying in Santa Barbara. It's so overwhelming coming to a town that I know nothing at all about. Thank goodness for Yelp! I honestly couldn't believer the solid 5 star overal rating...how often do you see that!??! I was definitely in the mood for pizza so decided to try it. it was myself, husband and 2 teen's. it was a decently short walk from our hotel (we were in lower state street). very casual atomosphere with about 5 indoor tables and 2 outdoor tables. we sat inside. we opted to order two pizza's from their speciality menu - Cream of the Crop - The whole Shebang the kids didn't seem enthused with the idea of lemon and squash on their pizza...but i wanted us to eat the pizza that they seem to be known for (based on the yelp reviews). we all LOVED both pizza's. the cream of the crop was such an amazing surprise! while we waited for our order, they brought us out some complimentary garlic knotts! wow! service was great place was clean. it was a hot day and it wasn't too hot inside (a little more AC would have been nice). i will 100% definitely come back. in fact we though about returnign the next day but they were closed. read more

In a town with no shortage of bougie pizza, St. Bibiana is a strong contender for first place. So why do they lose one star? 1. The "special" pizzas are built more to look tidy and symmetrical on Instagram than to fulfill their flavor promise. That is: they *seriously* short you on toppings! Our peach, ricotta and basil pizza (sounds amazing, right?) had like one thin peach slice, one small ricotta lump, and one basil leaf per giant slice. Torture: just enough to hint at how good the pizza could have been if they weren't such cheap bastards with the toppings. It needed three times the peaches and twice the other stuff, easily. Not cool. 2. If I order a pizza for pickup at a certain time -- which is strongly recommended considering how busy this joint gets -- I expect it to be ready but also STILL HOT at that designated pickup time. Tricky, I know, but not rocket science; Rusty's pulls it off about 50 times a day. It's a serious bummer to get your "fresh" pizza to your picnic 5 minutes away and it's stone cold. I love you, St. Bibiana, but you seriously need to do better on both counts. read more

We split the lemon mushroom pizza and warm cauliflower salad. The pizza was great and the salad AMAZING. Finished it off with the brown butter & salt chocolate chips cookies. The portions and service was very good. read more

Excellent pizza. A bit pricey, but it seems like pizza has comes to this price almost anywhere you go, which is unfortunate, but I digress. I ordered a half Pepperoni and half Margherita pie, along with some garlic knots. Everything was delicious. This is the pizza spot to go to in SB. I will be coming back to try the Detroit style pie soon. Service was super friendly and they even threw in some extra knots because they had extra and were closing. They have about 3 tables inside with some arcade games, not great for too big of a party, but manageable for like 4-6ppl per table. read more

Wine tasting for the day with my sister friend Marisela.. pizza was amazing, I had the lemon zest mushroom slice.. so good. Service was great, we were recommended the brown butter cookies were soooo good. 10/10.. give this place a try .. soooo good! read more

Downtown pizza satisfaction! I was craving a quality pizza but did not want to travel down to Montecito. I decided to give this place a try! I am glad I did. The crust, the quality of the ingredients, the flavor... taste buds are in heaven. We ordered the lemon mushroom for pick up via phone. The order was ready within a reasonable amount of time. The pizza is enough to feed two people three in some instance. The lemon mushroom is vegetarian. The amount of the toppings is just right. The toppings include garlic, basil, mushrooms and lemon. The pizza is not greasy and doesn't feel heavy after eating. I will definitely be going back to try their other pies. They have ranch but it's green (surpiros The inside is narrow but there is enough seating. Employees were very nice and informative. read more

I've been here twice, the first time I had a simple plain, pizza, can't remember if it was a margarita, or what, but it was fantastic, one of those pizzas that Dave Portnoy would give an 81 on any day. My second visit was not great, second time I added a bunch of stuff onto the pizza, I got "the whole shabang" and I added even more on top of that. Do not recommend- these pizzas are great, when there's not a lot of toppings on them. If you add too many toppings they lose their crisp and gain too much flop. I called ahead and ordered for pickup. Easy. The place is very small in person. A literal hole in the wall type of place. Next door to wildcat, I'm sure they do great "by the slice" business at night but I don't know anything about that. read more

Wowowow, one of the best pizzas I've had in a while! My boyfriend and I shared The Whole Shabang and we were both quite full after finishing it. The toppings were perfect, the sauce flavorful, and the crust was so so good. Such good chew and you can tell lots of love went into the pizza. The only thing that could make this place better is if they had more seating- it's first come first serve and they've got about 5 tables of 4-6 chairs and some bar seating by the window. Not ideal, so we waited a bit for seats but luckily had a table (shared with another couple) by the time our pizza came out. The arcade games are fun (and free!!) so that's nice too, just a little cramped for space. I wanna come back and try their detroit style pizza! read more

Got delivery and it was delicious. Incredible pizza. Large portions. The Italian sodas are also very good.

What went well you ask? Everything! Start to finish Saint Bibiana for the win! We went with the pepperoni & added some garlic. The pie was perfect. Great sauce & the dough was light with a great crisp & char. The ingredients were fresh & flavorful & they have their dough game down! We also got the cauliflower salad which was great. To end the meal we finished off with one of their house made cookies, amazing. The owner served us our pie & her passion shined through in every way possible, especially in flavor! Very very happy with this experience & Santa Barbara is lucky to have a solid pie joint with both solid food & a great vibe to boot. Well done, thank you read more

We were waiting to take out, patiently sitting at a table and we got moved outside by a server because more people were waiting even after they got there after us. Didn't think we'd have to move even if we got there first, just to accommodate more people that got there after us. read more

I found my new local favorite! Just walk in and order a pizza and salad, sit down and relax, and enjoy the best food brought to you with kindness and a smile. Our group came in on a chilly evening and spotted the best looking salad. We didn't think twice and ordered it with no regrets. Out came an arugula and cauliflower salad with a yogurt dressing enjoyed in a cozy wood bench seat. We then had two pizzas. One was the sausage, whose ingredients were fresh and every bite flavorful. The lemon mushroom pizza was my favorite, especially dipped in ranch. I never would have thought to use lemon on pizza and now I can't wait to try it again. read more

Ordered the sausage pizza pretty close to close. Very cute little quaint spot for some high quality pizza options. Staff was friendly and willing to answer any questions we had. We enjoyed their little arcade game area while waiting for our to go pizza. Bonus points for the free games! Menu is simple and to the point but has some great options. The smell alone is just incredible! The pizza was flavorful, thin crust, and just the perfect late night meal that we contemplated coming back again the next day. Highly recommend! read more

Literally the best pizza in Santa Barbara. Also they sell slices! And they have great and local wine. The roasted Cauliflower salad is delicious and something I craveeee. Staff is amazing and they always have veggie options. My perfect self care day is getting my brows done at the Lounge by Tanna (a couple doors down) and then walking the 10ft to Saint Bibiana for the cauliflower salad and a slice of pizza. read more

Everything Cindy touches turns to gold. The crust and sauce is insanely delicious. She really goes out of her way to make sure you have a great experience at the restaurant. Our go-to spot for loading up on multiple pizzas (specifically the lemon mushroom za) for birthdays. I couldn't recommend this spot more. read more

I don't write reviews, but I saw a sign on the corner for sourdough pizza. I love all things sourdough, and I must say this is the best sourdough pizza I've ever had. Light and crispy crust, and overall great flavor. And that was just on a reheated slice! Will definitely come back! read more

We've ordered take out here twice now. It's good pizza. Online ordering is quick and simple with every topping/combination available. orders take about 45minutes. Base pizzas are Neapolitan style, with both familiar topping combinations (think Hawaiian, pepperoni) and more novel ones (white sauce with lemon and mushrooms). They also have salads and deep dish, that I haven't tried, and pizza by the slice. Parking for pickup orders on Ortega street is ok but not great. There is a loading zone, but it gets filled up. The inside is quite small, bright and fun, with a few indoor and outdoor tables for dining in. Service is very friendly, efficient and competent. Now for the pizza! The crust is perfection, very thin and bubbly, crisp on the edges with a chewy center. You will get char spots here and there, indicative of a very hot oven, which I love. The cheese on top is light. The pepperoni is the small cups type, it's good but there's a bit too much on the pizza for our taste. The sausage pizza has a better balance of meat and toppings, as does the Hawaiian and Margherita, with nice touches of huge fresh basil leaves. Everything is of the highest quality. What needs adjusting for us is the red sauce - it's very thick, tangy and a bit overpowering, more like tomato paste. On a light, Neapolitan style pizza, I would expect a simple, thin crushed tomato sauce with salt and a few seasonings. I honestly think it would make for a better balanced pizza. At a price point of $23 - $27 a pie, we need perfection. St. Bs is good, try it for yourself, see what you think. We'll be back when the mood strikes. read more

St. Bibiana is hands down my new go-to for pizza. I've ordered delivery twice now, trying both the classic pepperoni and the lemon mushroom pizza. And let me tell you--the lemon mushroom pizza might just be the best pizza I've ever had. Santa Barbara, LA, San Francisco... anywhere. It's that good. And keep in mind, I had these delivered, meaning they had been sitting for a while before I even took my first bite. I can't even imagine how incredible they must be straight out of the oven at the restaurant. Beyond just the taste, the value for the quality is unmatched. This place is an absolute hidden gem, and while part of me selfishly hopes it stays that way, it deserves all the love. I'll definitely be coming back again and again! read more

The pizza is top, top notch. The brown butter cookie used to be a 10/10. It was warm and gooey, had a special sticker on it, and was absurdly decadent and delicious. Now it arrives cold, no sticker, and the quality has dropped off significantly. Now a 7/10. Whoever had the expertise to make the old cookie is likely gone or they relaxed their standards. I don't order as much anymore as weird as that sounds. Please, bring back the cookie as it was! read more
