American Restaurants near Isla Vista

Root Burger American • $
558 University Rd, Isla Vista

“The vegan burger (plus the combo fries and drink) is amazing. Probably the best clearly-labelled vegan burger you're going to get in the area, since it has a good patty, a good bun, and a delicious thousand island sauce, and the vegan options in IV are lacking… $10 for a vegan burger, fries, and drink is better than almost any place I've been to. Fast service, but you eat in a cafeteria-like setting. Haven't tried the black bean or hummus burger, but I'm sure they're good too. I come here every week as a lunch between my classes.“

Romaine's Salad • $$
UCEN Rd, Isla Vista

“Love getting lunch here! There's a wide selection of items for a custom salad, and the price it pretty fair (for context, I'm used to Sweetgreen) for the size. You can also get the free daily bread option, and they have soups for an extra price; you can ask to sample them too. I never feel hungry after having one of their salads! My only complaint is that they're only open for 2 hours Mon-Fri :(Vegetarian options: Almist every option is vegan, but there are meat protein options. I'm not sure about the dressings, but I'd assume the oil/vinegar dressings are vegan and vegetarian.“

Deja Vu cafe American • $
966 Embarcadero del Mar, Isla Vista

“I only had the chili fries and too many of you are comfortable with being racist in your reviews of this place. Weirdo entitled freaks of nature.... like who actually cares if someone doesn't speak english that well? English is a hard language to master and honestly if you come to a FOOD place for great conversations you're weird asf What matters is the food and the chili fries good asf!“

Portola Dining Commons Buffet • $$
6800 El Colegio Rd, Isla Vista

“I was a Gaucho for a couple of years and the UCSB dining commons are nothing but special to me. Pizza, burgers, pasta, sandwich bar, salad bar, waffle machine, unlimited soda, all-you-can-eat everything all with a simple card swipe! (or <$20 for non-students) Seriously, some of you guys' complaints make no sense. You really expect French Laundry quality here? Yeah right! This place's job is to provide us with glucose for our brains to complete our studies, and for that I'd say it's beyond satisfactory. Ranking of the DCs: 1. Ortega (sushi baby!) 2. DLG (late night cravings) 3. Carrillo (best breakfast) 4. Portola (too far, had it once)“

“A bit out of the way from downtown SB, but worth it. We headed out to try the "breakfast burger" during Burger Week. It was pretty small but tasty. Props for creativity. Service was very friendly and prompt. Casual vibe -- we sat on the outdoor patio w our dogs, and appreciate that they're dog-friendly.“

“We went to try the burger special, Paddy Daddy. The burger itself was good, but the corned beef on it was pretty tough & chewy. Loved the slaw & homemade pickles were awesome. Buffalo cauliflower was also very good. Loved the quirkiness of the decor & the mismatch of S&P shakers. Definitely will come again to try the pizza & other menu items.“

“Nice atmosphere with great staff!I got a chocolate malted cruch shake with malt and it was amazing! Super creamy and not too sweet!I also got the spicy chicken avo with fries and I couldn't stop eating it! I was a little sad it wasn't very spicy, despite the jalapeños, but would totally order it again.“
