    Love the old school vibe here. Service was great. The beef rib and homemade peach pie were delicious.

    Butter cake special
    Bridget G.

    We were taking a slow road trip from LA to SF and making stops to see historical points of interest. We realized we were hungry, and this was the closest restaurant to us. I am so glad we stopped by! I love historic eateries, and this one seems extra special. The restaurant itself is huge, with multiple dining rooms and event spaces. We were warmly welcomed by the hosts, and decided to sit at the bar. Our bartender was very friendly and helpful, and pointed out that we still had time for happy hour! We ordered the Brussels sprouts, with a bright citrus kick and not overly-charred like a lot of other restaurants. I ordered the grilled artichoke, the shrimp, corn and jalapeno fritters, and a Winchester cocktail. Husband ordered the Stack sandwich (prime rib, bacon, crispy onions, jack cheese, lettuce and tomato, side of fries). We both really enjoyed the food and ordered another round of drinks. The fritters had a delicious, complex flavor and a good kick! I wish the artichoke had been seasoned more between the leaves so that the "petals" would be softer and more flavorful, but I still really enjoyed it with the aioli. We also split the butter cake, which came with a scoop of ice cream. Our bartender told us that the owner's wife makes the carrot cake from scratch every day (I love restaurant with stories like that!) and we would have ordered that too if we weren't so full! The restaurant also has a huge, dog friendly patio with games. I really liked this restaurant and I'm so glad we just happened to find it on our trip. I'd love to go back.

    Big beef rib with baked potato and green beans.
    FudieLuver S.

    Well seasoned meat with great flavor. Those green beans were amazing full of flavor and garlic. I asked for prime rib medium well and was a bit over cooked for my liking. But it was still good and tender. They have fabulous ranch dressing taste like the classic, if you know you know. Dessert was yummy had chocolate lava cake, forgot to take pic. Was really moist and chocolaty perfect with the vanilla ice cream. The place just gives off an old classic style with the timber wood, very rustic feel. Service was a bit on the slow side, but we were not in a hurry. I prefer that vs being rushed. I had to flag down our waiter to get more water and raw horseradish, the cream one had no kick. But overall was a great meal. Definitely go back. Their hamburgers looked great, from seeing them fly by us. Looked like a real patty, not prepackaged flat patty.

    prime rib soup
    Stephanie S.

    My husband and I brought our littles to enjoy a sit down dinner for our last night of camping at El Capitan State Beach. I ordered the small bowl of the prime rib soup with a side ceaser salad and they were good. Only thing negative i have to say was that i didn't care that the veggies and meat in the soup were tiny pieces. it was more juice/broth than chunks of actual food. BUT! there was flavor! My husband and one of my sons ordered the special for that evening, flat iron steak with potatoes, their seasonal veggies (green beans) and a salad. they enjoyed their steaks. our other 4 kiddos ordered chicken strips with fries and those are always a win! Our server was attentive and patient as our kiddos gave him their order for their food. It was a nice evening with good food to close out our family vacation.

    Great wedge with fried onions!
    Jeff W.

    Great experience to the money! Phillip was our server and did a great job! This place turned me into a lover of fried pickles! See the photos! I love a good wedge salad, and this was a good one! Great potato skins. The only thing that was not great were the ribs which my friend and the waiter said were overcooked. Phillip took them off the bill. Nice old building, called Timbers because of all of the big wood beams everywhere. Again, great value for Santa Barbra.

    Great food, great steaks, flavorful food, great atmosphere and ambiance. Service is excellent with staff that provide top-notch service. Can't beat the value they provide.

    Do they have an option of gluten free buns for their burgers?

    Yes they have that option, but of course I didn’t get to try because was too healthy for me! Either way those Burgers are fine.!

    Is dog friendly?

    Yes, we have a large dog-friendly patio

The line always moves fast and the food comes out quickly too. What compelled me to write this review was because I had a delicious pescado a la diabla, which was a daily special. The fish was a huge portion -- a whole filet with a delicious spicy sauce, perfectly cooked and flaky. The rice and beans are always great, perfectly seasoned and cooked. I also had a passionfruit margarita which was big and well balanced. The salsa bar is very good; the habanero salsa is really tasty but their old version without cream was one of the best salsa I ever had and I'm so sad they don't offer it anymore. It was legitimately spicy. I always love coming here with my friends after a movie so we can discuss the flick over some great mexican food.

You order and pay at the register, grab a number, seat yourself, and your food (along with complimentary chips) is brought to your table. There were plenty of indoor and outdoor seating options. Everything else is self-serve, including drinks and salsa/toppings. Their salsa bar had a great variety and I honestly loved every salsa I tried! You can't go wrong with whatever you choose, but I recommend the avocado salsa. My friend and I swapped a taco from each of our plates, so I was able to try their tacos al pastor and tacos del mar with halibut. The al pastor was particularly flavorful and well marinated, and to my surprise, I enjoyed the pineapple bits in the taco. The halibut tasted fresh and the chipotle sauce on top paired nicely. I also love a good side of rice and beans and I can't even put my finger on it, but it was just so tasty. It got pretty busy during the dinner rush and I was seated right along the order line, but nothing too disruptive to our dining experience. Overall, the food was solid, the staff was friendly, the service was quick, and the vibes were upscale-casual and lively.

This one sits in a strip mall so there is plenty of free parking and seats to eat at. My wife was bummed that there was no more sea urchin to be bought when we pulled in at dinner time but the fried fish taco special was too good to pass up so we both ordered that, the kiddo got the grilled salmon plate, and we also got a bowl of clam chowder to share. All the food was delicious! The fish tacos were the way I like them- a big piece of fish with cabbage, a little pico de gallo, and a dollop of sauce- not too many overpowering flavors to let the fish be the star of the show. The clam chowder was creamy with plenty of clams, and the salmon plate had great salmon that was cooked nicely (still moist) and what was likely an entire avocado sliced up on the plate. Great food, we'd definitely come back!

Really enjoyed the fresh oysters here. The smallest, most expensive one (they had a few different ones that day so I tried one of each) was understandably the tastiest and creamiest of the bunch. The other ones were good too, and all of them had a salty brine on them. They also provided some lemon wedges, marinara (?) sauce, and hot sauce. The fried soft-shell crab burger was interesting to try once, not particularly my taste but if you like fried soft-shell crab it could be great for you. I would like to come back, especially for the fresh oysters. Hoping to try some other menu items next time.
