Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in Carpinteria

Everything about this restaurant was top notch. One of the most impressive aspects of the experience was how a number of times we were asked about the quality of our food/ experience and how the staff there worked as a coordinated professional team. A restaurant staff obviously working as a team is rare to see. We were lucky enough to have met the owner-Tina, and from our conversation she appears to have a leadership style which is respectful and encourages excellence. Many of these staff will do well in the future.

Wonderful lunch for our day trip from LA! Everything was delicious, service was excellent, loved our beautiful table at the base of the lighthouse.

Wonderful Christmas evening meal—best ever! The prix-fix selections were spot-on and delicious. The service was far and above what is typical of dining out on a holiday; everyone involved at Black Sheep, from the hostess to each and every server made the experience special. Thanks Black Sheep for a great Christmas dining experience!

Twelve of us (family and friends) had a Christmas Buffet celebration at Finch and Fork. The whole experience was exceptional. We were made to feel welcome by a very professional and friendly team who clearly wanted us to enjoy ourselves - which we did - and enjoy a wide selection of food offerings. The buffet stations were refreshed as needed and our table was comfortable and not squashed in at all. We requested some number changes in the run up to the 25th and were accommodated readily. We all felt that the buffet was great value at $110 for Christmas Day in Santa Barbara.

The staff was amazing! Super attentive. Our server was awesome. She kept checking on us and made sure everything was good and if we needed anything. I’m definitely coming back.
