Clark’s Montecito is a stylish all-day restaurant celebrating coastal American classics spanning from New England to California. In addition to its flagship menu of oysters and raw bar, a signature burger, daily catch specials, lobster rolls, chowder and refreshing crudo, this California location features seasonal bounty from the Pacific Ocean. The wine list highlights California classics alongside French whites and reds primarily from Burgundy and the Loire. Clark’s signature martinis and cocktails are always available. A collaboration between Lambert McGuire Design and Santa Barbara-based architect Jeff Shelton, the space offers a seamless indoor-outdoor dining experience that marries Clark’s classic coastal design features with the more whimsical ceramic tile traditions of Portugal and Mexico and a Mediterranean-inspired design that pays homage to its coastal setting and historic Spanish Colonial Revival architecture.

In business for more than 30 years, Roy is a bistro-style, Americana restaurant with a frequently changing, handwritten menu. We strive to serve unpretentious cuisine of the highest quality. We use mostly certified organic produce from the local Santa Barbara Farmers Market, free range chicken and Harris Ranch hormone free beef. We bake our own bread, hand roll our pastas and make all of our desserts in house. Our ambiance is retro moderne California casual, and we have rotating art shows that run for a month and a half at a time. Live music once in a while. Full bar all the time.

    We had the best time last night at Arnoldi’s! It’s been literally 50 years since I was here last! We arrived early- 5:30pm- and it was nice and quiet. By the time we left- 7:30- the restaurant was full and a bit noisy. The food was amazing and our waiter, Silavano, was so sweet and accommodating. We couldn’t have had a better experience.

    Moby Dick Restaurant was a great experience. We sat right by the window overlooking the water at night and it was beautiful. I ordered the fish and chips and the passion fruit drink. The drink was nice and smooth, but the fried cod fish was greasy and the fish tasted werid. My sister ordered the fish tacos and said they were delicious. We had Ms. Lee and she was great, with customers, being attentive and observant. She took off the fish and chips when she noticed I hadn’t ate all the fish and the fish was still on my plate. I am glad she cared enough to ask questions about the food and if I was satisfied. Great customer service goes a long way and she was very helpful and a pleasant to have.

    A delightful and special take on Mexican favorites with good wines and cocktails. The salads are fantastic as are the fish dishes and the enchiladas Suiza which I just had tonight.
