Overal Rating: 6 Downey's

Address: 1305 State Street, Santa Barbara, CA 93101 (Map)

Downey's

Editor's Pick Recommended Restaurant Seeming light years away from the hustle and bustle of the collegiate/tourist-filled South State Street is an unsuspecting Cal-French local favorite: Downey’s. For 25 years, Owner and Chef John Downey has managed to sustain rave accolades amidst a completely unlikely environment. Yes, the esteemed apex of Santa Barbara restaurant folklore is all but hidden in secluded Mid-Town State Street. More surprising is that once inside, Downey’s is completely void of aesthetic trickery to the point of intrigue. It is evident: John Downey is from the school of substance over style.

Address: 9 W. Victoria Street, Santa Barbara, CA 93101 (Map)

Bouchon

What Bouchon recognizes is wine at it's best! An always changing and intriguing seasonal menu comes from Santa Barbara's wine country and fresh ingredients. You can even stop by the open line to especially thank the chef or tell him about your dining experience.

Overal Rating: 7 Holdren's Steakhouse

Address: 512 State Street, Santa Barbara, CA 93101 (Map)

Holdren's Steakhouse

Editor's Pick Situated in the heart of Santa Barbara’s downtown scene, Holdren’s provides diners classically prepared steaks as well as seafood with a distinctively Californian flair. The patio offers views of this resort town’s palm-lined streets and upscale shops, while indoors the brick walls and leather booths bestow a charm akin to the traditional steakhouses of Chicago or New York. Though in business a mere four years, Holdren’s boasts the oldest bar in Santa Barbara, so it comes as no surprise that the martini list contains an array of unique specials and the extensive wine list is suitably matched to the hearty cuisine.
