Good amount of meat for a smashed burger, and reasonably priced. Good house sauce that pairs well with the flavor of the meat!

If this place existed when I was in college, I would have definitely moved downtown. As an elder millennial off of read meat, the ability to get an impossible burger (vegetarian) in smash burger form made me so very happy. I missed smash burgers and this place is the answer. They do a handful of things and they do it right. Can't recommend the food, the vibes, or the people enough. read more

One of the best fast food burger around. You can't beat the price. Taste was on point, taste was flavorful, to be honest I happened to walk by waiting for my sister for another restaurant and I stopped to grab a burger. #worthit read more

Window's cheeseburger is good, fries too, personal size portions Fresh lemonade is refreshingly good. We had a double burger too and the flavors are good. We ordered a milkshake and that took longer than expected I would grab a bite here again when I'm around this area, maybe a weekday ! finding parking on a busy weekend was a challenge, the line might be long but moves relatively quick Service is good , they are doing their best, be patient and kind Window it's giving that corner of Chapala a new look and I like it - chill ambiance in downtown read more

Burgers and grain bowl were delicious!! The shakes and dipped cone were tasty as well. Looking forward to coming back!

unfortunately, did not have a good experience here. I just came for a quick bite so I ordered a burger as it comes no modifications. The girl taking my order seemed like she hated her job. Then came 12 minutes of waiting for a single burger when there wasn't a long line ahead of me when I ordered. The guy ahead of me in line actually got his order after me. Two stars because the actual burger itself was cooked really well, but the whole burger was extremely underwhelming. The bun was really thick and ice cold. It's not a pleasant experience to have a steaming hot burger on an ice cold bun. I don't know what happened there, but I would expect that that's not the normal to serve it with cold buns. The onion taste was overwhelming. I felt sick after. I won't be back. read more

This place is great! I've had the breakfast burrito with brisket, the double cheeseburger, fries, and the strawberry shake. Everything is very good and very fresh. My only complaint is the fries were slightly overcooked for my taste. Service is good and the workers are doing their best to handle the long lines during opening week. They actually gave me a cheeseburger instead of a double cheeseburger and corrected the mistake quickly once I told them what happened. They let me keep the single cheeseburger which was fantastic and exactly what other restaurants should do when they are at fault. The breakfast burrito is especially good because of the crispy potatoes (they actually crunch!) and the well seasoned, tender brisket. The burger is simple but tasty -- soft bun, well-seasoned patties, and pickles and onions that help tie it together. The strawberry shake has ample whipped cream and freeze dried strawberry as garnish. It's a bit sweet but that's what a milkshake is supposed to be. Overall, it's really delicious and features local strawberries. They have outdoor seating and the ambiance is very casual and coastal, like I'd expect from Santa Barbara. This is a great addition to downtown but I think it's a bit of a missed opportunity to close at 9 PM -- they should really be targeting the late night crowd as well. read more

Some of the best burgers in town ! So good makes you forget about in n out lol the oil the use isn't heavy, i appreciate that :)

Awesome cheeseburger, best in town! Glad we stopped by during our trip, family loved this simple burger joint

I asked for no onion and was told it's not possible bc there's always onions on the grill. Pardon? How is it not possible to clear a space on the grill without any onions??? To me, that says lazy or unsanitary or both. read more

Friendly guy at the front and the place is bright and clean. I had the double and a side of fries. The burger was good with a nice array of no frills toppings...sauce, pickles and grilled onions. The bun turned a bit gummy towards the end, not sure if they'd toast it for you. Fries were just OK, lukewarm yet crispy. I'm glad I tried it. read more

Withholding judgment until after my order is delivered, but I had to question why the $2.00 Small Order Fee (on orders less than $8.69) was charged to my $9.75 (sub-total before tax & delivery) order. I had no recourse but deduct it from my tip. Update: Not at all impressed by this new business. My order was canceled. They ran out of "a food item" (I'd ordered a cheeseburger and fries) sometime between 11:40AM and 12:11PM (lunchtime). Cannot speak for the food itself (although my boss raves about it), but the menu looks very similar to In-n-Out. read more

First off, the burger. THE burger. It is incredible! The bun, the lettuce, the smashed patties. All excellent! My favorite burger in SB, hands down. My wife got the grain bowl and it was super tasty. All the ingredients are great and quality. The seats and tables were all clean and in good shape. Last, but not least, Sarah, the general manager is such a nice lady. She was there with a big smile and a great attitude. She made sure that we were all welcomed and happy. What an asset to the business The kids got the Local Strawberry shakes and what a treat those were! Highly recommend this place! read more

Burgers are mediocre. I am mainly writing this review because they royally messed up our order last night. Simple order, we ordered a double cheese burger, a beauty burger (veggie burger) and two fries. We waited while customer after customer got their orders who ordered behind us. We wondered what was taking so long, but opted to be patient. Well after waiting for a good 30 minutes, and it wasn't busy. They finally called our name and said "sorry for the wait we threw in a free food coupon." Well now we know why. They clearly made two double cheese burgers, instead of a double and a veggie, and two fries, but didn't make the veggie burger till after. Two double cheese burgers were cold and smashed below the rock hard cold fries. Unfortunately, everything but the veggie burger were cold and the fries were hard as a rock. $35 bucks down the drain, but we got a free burger for next time! No bueno guys. Do better! Should have remade it all guys for your mistakes!!! read more

Disappointing Experience - Not Worth the Hype Tried the newly opened Win~Dow Smashburger in Santa Barbara and honestly, it was a major letdown. I spent 30 minutes just to order and another 30 minutes to get my food--an entire hour wasted for what's supposed to be "fast food." I ordered the Double Cheeseburger , and it was extremely underwhelming. The patties were bland yet somehow way too salty, and the pickles piled on top made it even saltier. There was zero balance in flavor--just salt and disappointment. On top of that, I asked the girl at the counter if she could serve my lemonade with my food so I could enjoy both fresh together. She flat-out said they can't do that and handed me the drink right away. By the time my burger finally came out, the lemonade had turned into watery slush from the melted ice. What's the point? Overall, this place does not live up to the hype. If you're expecting quality or efficiency, look elsewhere. Total waste of time. read more

Really great tasting burgers in a similar style to Shake Shack but only better tasting and much cheaper at $4.50 for a cheeseburger - can't beat that. No indoor seating. Only outdoor seating so if you get cold early bring a jacket during winter months. The service is walk-up only and the wait time with only 4 or 5 people in line was about average 5 or 6 minutes. read more

HYGY Also as a Latina from LA it's hard to feel at home here and this places location plus oldies tunes felt like I belonged in the install well done read more

Portions are terrible . Close to a double cheeseburger from McDonald's and way more expensive

Saw the good rating so tried. Tired tasteless hambuger and bun. Cold limp french fries. Burned listless brussel sprouts dripping with grease. Surprised and disappointed. read more

Mainly displeased with them not allowing me to get a burger without onion, though they offered the alternative of "light onion." Otherwise, the food really was great! Didn't take too long and patio was decent, if a little busy. read more

Delicious jalapeño smash-burger, fries & lager. Quick service, despite initial line out the door. Fun beer garden atmosphere.

I had heard about this place. How amazing it was. It did not disappoint. I wish I could have eaten more. Service was quick and we did not wait long and it was so good. We had the cheeseburger and double cheeseburger, fries and Brussels. So yum- will be back! read more

The Win-dow - CHEESEBURGER, DOUBLE CHEESEBURGER, FRIES, CRISPY BRUSSELS SPROUTS - Burgers Near Me - Santa Barbara, California

Don't understand the hype. I guess it's because the place opened a month ago. Pretty basic, meat, cheese, pickle bun. They are more like sliders. Trust me when I say not to expect a decent sized burger. Not the place to come when you are hungry. If you are not from the area, I would recommend The Habit or In-N-Out for a better burger. What did surprise me was the fried chicken, well seasoned batter, but the portion disappoints. The lemonade game is mediocre, was extremely acidic and sour, and the drinks had more ice then anything. The line of customers is misleading. read more

Food ok but not up to Habit or In N Out. Staff very, very friendly but 15 - 20 minutes to get our burgers and fries. Great shake read more

I've ordered from here twice and both times I got the kale salad. The first time I added a burger patty and the other a chicken cutlet. I love the salad but can't speak for the other food since I've only tried the salad. I recommend ordering online to get your food faster. It seems like a cool place to eat outside and people watch. read more

Was my first time there Insee there menu online I like on Saturday they open early I had a dbl chs was good the cashier was very friendly the outside was clean well kept. I skipped the fries but next time I will purchase read more

Ordered door dash - the chicken sandwich no bun. All I got was chicken Don't order to go read more

Great budget eats only a short walk from state street! All seating is outdoors, and the patio area is usually pretty full. Order at the window and wait for your order to be called through their loudspeaker, and you're on your way! This spot is very very casual and great for late night budget eats. I got the fried chicken sandwich, and found the coleslaw to be oddly sweet. The fried chicken itself was very crispy though! If you get cold, make sure to bring a jacket for the patio! read more

Best food in town I can see why all the locals come here I love the vegetarian options!!

Win-Dow is an absolute gem in Santa Barbara. The burgers are juicy and flavorful, the fries are crispy and addictive, and everything tastes fresh and made with care.

Sarah O the GM reached out to me. This was a much better experience. It came out fresh and hot tasted much better. Definitely a spot for smashburgers in the downtown area. I appreciate the follow-up from management as customer service these days in general is not what it used to be. Keep up the great work and congrats on the new location read more

The bun is so soft yet firm enough for the delicious burger, the fries are hot and crisp, the Peanut Buddy can't be beat, and the staff is always super friendly. Cute building and patio as well. Not many places have value AND quality. Love it! read more
