“We are staying at Best Western, which is across the street from Clementines. We got in late and wanted something convenient for dinner. We were not expecting much given the location. It took us less than 5 minutes to walked over. We were greeted by a warm, cozy dining area. This family owned restaurant serves up a delicious set meal. Entrees come with freshly baked bread, salad, soup and dessert. Bread and split pea soup were made there, and it was so delicious. The soup was flavorful and creamy. Bread was served warm and moist. The salad was fresh and refreshing. We split a NY steak, and it was nicely seasoned and cooked to our specifications. Everything was just delicious. Even the potatoes on the side were so good. We asked for the recipe, and the waitress told us it was a family secret! Well, this spot is a gem, and if your in the area, give it a try!“
“We had an exceptional dinner at RareSociety and have to give a special thanks to Trevor who took such good care of us and made sure we had an amazing evening. The steaks were cooked to perfection and the potato au gratin with truffle on the side was so delicious. The miso glazed carrots were not to my taste but my husband liked them.All the food was washed down with a lovely bottle of red wine. We happened to mention to Trevor that we were travelling on our honeymoon and at the end of our meal he brought us a complimentary glass of bubbles each, this was such a lovely gesture and went down a treat! The inside of the restaurant is absolutely beautifully decorated. We were the last customers but did not feel rushed to leave at the end at all.I could not recommend Rare Society any higher - thank you for such a wonderful evening.“

“Great restaurant ! We were visiting Summerland from France this January, and had a night out at The Nugget : the food was delicious, the atmosphere is very typical and friendly, and the staff was very pleasant. We had an amazing time and a super nice chat with one of the waiter.“
“Chuck's is one of my favorite places in all of Santa Barbara. A locals place that's been there for forever. Great steaks, always love the New York Strip and always is cooked perfectly to my temp. Place does get busy. But the service is phenomenal! Great, great service by a pretty, tall blonde young lady.... Kayla? She seems to handle the busy restaurant with ease, attentive and just a friendly personality. We'll be back!“
