- GGeriSan Francisco Bay Area •5 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoThe hospitable and welcoming staff were top-notch - many of them wished us a happy anniversary, and it shows the excellent communication within the establishment and the care they take to provide patrons with a memorable experience. Highly recommend arriving early and grabbing a delicious and strong cocktail in the lounge before dinner. Walk the gardens either before or after your meal - the property is gorgeous! Every bite was tasty - what stood out most to us were the perfectly prepared grilled octopus starter and the absolutely divine Grand Marnier souffle.More infoStonehouse at San Ysidro RanchPrice: Very Expensive• Contemporary American• Santa Barbara•4.8
