Outstanding food. I had Wild mushroom stuffed chicken breast w/ herb risotto and my Man had Herb crusted salmon in Thai coconut curry. Both were delicious, Our waiter, Matt took great care of us. We'll be back.
ALWAYS a favorite restaurant for superb food, the very best staff, beautiful interior, superb wine list & great drinks. Why go anywhere else??
We enjoyed an outstanding dinner with an equally outstanding waiter (Eric). He nicely managed our group on a very busy night. He was kind and professional.
Fantastic food and great service. Dined in the outdoor section during the rain and stayed warm and dry. Both, the fish and the steak were very well prepared and delicious. Great cocktails too. Our children loved the kids' menu as well. Definitely check this place out if you're in SB.
Fantastic!! I can't rave about this place enough. The service was excellent, our server was very knowledgeable, personable and charming. Our food came in a timely manner despite there being a dinner rush and the quality of our dishes was off the charts phenomenal. If we didn't live 6 hours away this would become one of our favorite spots to visit monthly. Be mindful this is a bit of a pricey spot to dine at, but the quality is well worth it. Hats off the the amazing chefs and staff!!
Opal has a really nice selection of menu items. I love the attention to detail of the outdoor seating on State Street. You'll especially like Opal's mushroom-based dishes, if that's your thing. If you're looking for a relaxed pace, nice dining experience that's not overdressed, this is your spot
The food was imaginative, but not over the top,
California Tasteful!!
The service was attentive, never intrusive.
After a 2 year covid break, I am so happy to find that Opal has not only survived, but expanded and flourishing.
Our pizza, pear & beet salad, and salmon were simply delicious.
You can spend more on a bistro dinner in Santa Barbara,
But you can't enjoy better food.
Wonderful food, wonderful staff. Richard was so kind and helpful and patient with myself and my mother when trying to schedule my graduation dinner. Everything went with such ease, everyone had a wonderful time, and everyone enjoyed the food! Their steak was amazing. Sabina, our waitress, was exceptional in every way, between remembering everyone's food and drink orders, to being informative about the menu.
Thank you Richard, Sabina and all Opal staff! We will for sure be coming back.
Really great place. Great food. Friendly servers. Delicious drinks. And my pup Mr Eko was happy too. Thanks to all.
Worth the hour and a half drive from the San Fernando Valley to get there. Love the food, particularly the sauces. My wife recommends the warm seafood salad. The last time we went was for her birthday. We recommend seating on the sidewalk if it's available.
