Super classy, elegant, and casual all at the same time Feels like a model home with their furniture on display for sale The restaurant was packed but not loud. Menu was easy to read and the food was simple and no nonsense The Chicken Sando, the Ribeye French dip and the fries were really good. Service was exceptional Courteous Informative Attentive Definitely worth a try read more

RH is a guarantee for a good meal. Their elevated decor, professional service, and consistently good food will occur regardless of location. Must-Haves Fried Artichoke. This is a unique offering when compared to the expected grilled or steamed artichoke. It's accompanied by an aioli that complements it perfectly. Lobster Rolls. The bread, the freshness of the lobster, and the caviar topping will win you over. It's portioned at the correct size not to allow it to get you to the "I'm over it phase," which you may run into with other rolls. Ribeye. A thin ribeye is always a treat when grilled to your desired temperature. A char beats a crust when it comes to this one. Although it did make me miss the Ontario and Alberta beef I had at their Toronto location, their prime beef still satisfied me. All Their Salads. There's just something about them. Their wine and beer list could use a few more options, but with a minimal corkage fee, I can't deduct points for that. But they need an in-house-made dessert option. read more

RH Firehouse Grill at RH Montecito - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Santa Barbara, California

Repeat customer--gorgeous patio dining with stunning views of the Montecito Mountains. Enthusiastic service, but failed to bring the aioli and extra ketchup requested with the burger and fries--the Superb Cheeseburger with smoky bacon, yummy cheese, and ripe avocados. Scrumptious Truffle Fries. Super clean and well-designed restrooms. Best part is no "Bridge and Tunnel" (Tourists) and Coast Village Road wannabe-be-seen crowd (Honor Bar), etc. Very expensive, but absolutely worth it. Cannot wait to try Dinner Experience. Thank RH, Well Done! read more

Third time and bummed it was disappointing. Shrimp and veggie salad charred but that would have been not worth a review.... Though maybe they should have noticed how much of veggies were burnt !! The stand out issue - unfortunately, unlike last time, when trying to find an all plant based vegan main dish, we all landed on the Chinese chicken salad. No chicken add avocado and try offered to alter the price. BUT this time same price without chicken. This time the waiter said Hmm and would talk to manager. When manager dropped off the bill, I asked if waiter said anything. He said No, offering a lovely smile and said he would adjust. The bill was returned with no change and no words. Fine if they changed their mind from last time but at least advise the customer. The lack of clear consistent communication does not build confidence. RH - it would be easy to make that salad offering two option for chicken or avocado w/ chickpea (protein) Pricing it the same (or not) - both options offer protein in a respectful manner encouraging plant based customers. RH will make more money on the vegan option as higher margin. Adding the chickpeas or something similar to your kitchen will take up very little space, won't carry the same health risks of raw chicken. And support the health conscious plant based eaters of Montecito./Santa Barbara Some friends advised that RH upcharge an additional 4% service, that's written in fine print on the bottom of the menu. Some people have told me that they wish the company would take care of the staff especially given the RH prices versus adding it as additional percentage for customer. Like most new places in the Santa Barbara area it's new so it's trending. For a while They've told us they were working on plant based options the last two times and we've been very patient and continue to support. However, excuses have been that the kitchen is small and today it was because they are corporate and they encourage me to talk to Corporate . Well, consider this my feedback for Corporate . read more

The ambience is lovely and the service is very good, but the food has become mediocre at best. Our chicken salad had very little chicken, and what was there was very dry. Our favorite appetizer has been taken off the menu and replaced with a so-so Caprese offering. Our hamburger came with no sides, hamburger only, and in spite of asking for it to be rare, it was medium at best. For the price point, they need to do better. We will not be returning soon. read more

Great experience ! The service is great and food is delicious. They have a great selection of wines, and a variety of different delicious foods. Patio seating is very welcoming and comfortable with a chimney and water fountain. They have valet parking which is very convenient. read more

If you're in the market for their trash low quality furniture and corporate slop they call food to match, then this is your new favorite spot. The hiring manager has targeted slow deft and unaware individuals who have been brain washed to a horrifying level. The whole experience was comical. The slop they call food arrived 45min later some cold, some warm, all bland and tasteless. Their vapid manager could only mutter the same sentence repeatedly with zero facial expression; could have been the Botox. Nonetheless, the cheese and wine shop across the street is far more charming and wholesome. This is the perfect place to take your thot/trophy wife or mistress with too much plastic surgery who thinks RH is "upscale". I personally can't wait until this lease is up and something with character and excellence arrives. read more

Beautiful environment and excellent service. Cuisine is fairly pedestrian and I do not understand the hype. The environment is really beautiful however! read more

Overpriced run of the mill food with incredibly slow service. Stick to selling furniture

We have had lunch/brunch twice here in recent months. Both were excellent experiences. Great atmosphere and an innovative menu. Excellent staff. I have passed the old firehouse many many times over the years, so it is fun to see the way RH kept the charm of the old building while updating it to suit their needs. Free valet parking is a plus. And it's within walking distance of a variety of fun shops (with a special shoutout to David and Taft). read more

I came here with some friends are the food here delivered. Ambiance was upscale with RH furniture throughout. I tried their shrimp, fries, and chips&dips with caviar. The caviar was chilled and deliciously briny. The chips were indeed as thin as could be. The shrimp was tender and not overly salty. Service was kind and quick. I would come back. read more

Just had the worst eggs Benedict ever...cold, hard and the hollandaise tasted awful....very odd.... We had a nice waiter but not a soul asked us what we thought.... Which sends a clear signal of what they think....Why do they leave every door open....cold unfriendly atmosphere on top of everything....ai these new restaurants make Tre-Lune and Lucky's shine...... read more

Excellent Service and all with a smile! Lovely greeting as we arrived! The chicken sandwich on Ciabatta was excellent fresh cut chicken and very tender thick cut smoked bacon, fresh tomato and baby bib lettuce make for a great sandwich We definitely will be returning soon.By the way really liked the way they they paid excellent attention to all details A big plus Lovely Restaurant read more

Very bad service! Valet needs to work his bedside manners, he kept our key fob, we had no key fob, called them they had it. No sorry when I picked them up, horrible! Not what I expected, good luck! The local community will not tolerate this bad service. read more

So, I was so excited to check out the new RH Firehouse Grill in Montecito since I'm such a fan of the company in general. And you know what, it is so beautiful... the vibes are impeccable! Staff- so kind. Coffee- amazing. Salad? Mid. I have been craving this exact salad that I've had time and time again at the Yountville RH restaurant, and it was not even kind of close. The lettuce was a bit sad... however my salmon tasted great. And my server was so kind. I will for sure come back here just for the vibes alone (and the coffee). Maybe lunch one more time? Sure. I'll try it again for lunch or dinner at some point and perhaps order something else. read more

Very nice waitress, very very very slow service. Over an hour wait at 2 pm in the afternoon for a shrimp & vegetable salad (charred-very), brunch waffles (delicious), and truffle fries (also delicious). Sancerre was delicious, but a hefty $25 per glass. Great atmosphere & prepare yourself to sloooooooowly wait and enjoy it. read more

Tried caviar for the first time here. It was delicious! The rest of our brunch was very good, too. The ambiance was also great. Felt like I was eating in a catalog. Will definitely be back! read more

The restaurant is inside the beautiful furniture display. The mini Lobster rolls were fantastic. Two for a small starter, but you will wish you had ordered four. The avocado with caviar was delicious. Each item has a good helping of caviar, it seems like a lot for the price. The shaved ribeye dip sandwich was also delicious, almost too much. The service was friendly and efficient. The ambiance was elegant and quiet so you could talk to your dinner companion without shouting. read more

The service is exceptional, the ambience is amazing and the food was absolutely delicious. We'll be going back again.

As one might expect, you are paying for the decor. Good service and staff but the sandwiches were standard, nothing special. Specifically, the burger and roast beef dip were just okay. Banana split was great. read more

Two Strikes! I've been to Firehouse twice. both times I've had to return my food. the first was for Branzino. it was riddled in bones. so on my second visit I decided to go for the French dip. what was served was so grotesque I would not serve my dog. The meat was beyond fatty. I have no idea who any fine restaurant could serve this. eating a French dip is a cheat meal for me and I can't believe something like this could be served. this could be an add for cardiologists across America. I'm from Montecito so i wish I just went to the honor bar for a French dip Whaf is this was a date night? the whole meal should have been comped? I will not return but for anyone else ... ask foe lean meat or deboned fish . on a plus the service is nice and the atmosphere is as well. read more

My review is based on the parking alone ...absolute disaster messed up my rims having to back out after lot was completely full and had to back into oncoming traffic. Food is great location not so much they should have gone elsewhere given the amount of traffic they get read more

I love the building and what they have done with it. It is a lovely space. The food is only fair. The lobster roll is on the correct roll (rare for California) and good, but has half the amount of lobster that it should. Way too much bread to lobster ratio. Anyone who has had a proper lobster roll knows it should be stuffed with lobster overflowing. Very skimpy. The salad I had was so so, and I had to cut the chicken up with a knife to eat it. The food is only fair. Too bad. I had high hopes. read more

I've dined at several RH restaurants and the food is always consistently delicious. It was challenging to snag a reservation online but we walked in today for lunch and were seated right away - only half the restaurant was filled. The service started out strong but the entree salads we ordered took so long we almost got up and left. Tables that were seated after us were eating and leaving as we were still waiting for our food...when we asked the waiter to check on our food, he insisted they were working on it and didn't even offer an apology for the delay....I've never had such an odd experience at a fine dining establishment as this. I understand it recently opened but the service needs a bit of work...I thought the 1 star review below was dramatic but it was a terrible first impression. read more

Went here for brunch and it was absolutely fabulous! Its VERY small compared to other RH restaurants but it was still fantastic. We sat by the fire and enjoyed mini cavier lobster, the italian benedict ( to die for) and the RH eggs. It was absolutely delicious and we are coming back tomorrow with our family! read more

Server was so nice. She realized my food came out incorrectly and offered dessert on the house for the mistake. Will say though forgot to bring stuff I asked for. Had to remind them. But got the club sandwich and the bacon was BURNT to the point it tasted like charcoal and they still decided to send it out as is. But otherwise the environment was nice would maybe only go back to have a glass of wine. Not worth the money for the low quality. read more

We absolutely enjoy the ambience and beauty of this place. Relaxing, peaceful, and the food was excellent. We had the petite fillet and a delicious salad as a side. Perfectly cooked and prepared. The manager Derek was so accommodating and enhanced our lovely evening at this beautiful restaurant. A great addition to Montecito. read more

The food was pretty good but definitely not as good as I had heard. The service was good. The atmosphere was really lush and welcoming However the attitude of this restaurant was very off-putting. First of all I called to see if I could bring in a homemade dessert for a birthday celebration. I was told they only allow bakery cakes and charge $10 per person to serve them. Also, we had a group of 8 and could not sit at one table!! Our party was split into 3 tables adjacent to each other. It definitely diminished the experience!! Clearly the owners are not concerned about guest experience but I think that is a dangerous attitude for the long term. It is bound to affect their profits going forward. I doubt I would agree to eat there again. read more

Excellent food, a small but good selection of wine, beautiful setting, and excellent service. Immediately rises to the level of The Lark or Bettina...One of the better meals I've had in Santa Barbara. read more

Food delicious. Service great. Ambiance really warm and lovely. We had the artichoke hearts for an appetizer and 2 Chinese chicken salads. Just a little too much dressing. So tasty. read more

The whitest restaurant in town. Outdoor setting is very pleasant, indoor feels like a dungeon. Food was average and prices were very high for what is delivered. Greens on the Chinese Chicken salad were not crisp and the whole thing had a mushy taste and feel. There was a tone of staff, all fresh and bubbly, but it never felt genuine. It's like they've all just emerged from some happiness, pretend you care training. The whole vibe of the place is pretentious. Took a very long time to get the food and service once served was non-existent. My iced tea was empty thorough half the meal and no one bothered to come near. There are much better places for this level of cost. read more

My dad and I waited 20 minutes at our table but were never acknowledged. No water, no "we are busy, sorry, here are some cokes on the house." NOTHING! We got up and left. it was irritating enough to have to step over a dog to get to our table but to not be acknowledged was too much. Very rude. read more

Party of four with reservation. Seated immediately. Beautiful interior. Long wait for attention from server for drinks. Based on that, decided to order drinks and dinner all at once. Served within reasonable time, but very limited attention thereafter from server while 2 guys in black suits roamed around doing ???. Needs more serving staff. read more

Did not like the 4% Employer mandate added to the bill. This likely doesn't go to staff healthcare subsidies. It's disclosed, but shouldn't be added to the bill. Service is great, complimentary valet is a nice added bonus on that busy street. The Chinese chicken salad was excellent and their brunch was great too. Overall, service was a standout and the food was a solid portion size. read more
