Best American Restaurants in Santa Barbara
Five American spots clear our bar in Santa Barbara. All Damn Good, no higher.
Nothing here has cracked our top tiers, but the Michelin recognition is real — four Selected and a Bib Gourmand at peasants FEAST. Barbareño and The Lark hold it down at $$$, while The Knock Kitchen + Cocktails and The Stonehouse Restaurant run $$$$. This is a solid, well-vetted list without a headliner yet.
