Margherita and Lemon Mushroom slices
Yun C.

Saint Bibiana Came back here after a few years, and somehow it was exactly the same in the best way. The first time, we stopped in because my daughter was hungry--one bite of the pizza and I remember thinking, "wait... this is actually really good." Fast forward to now, same situation, same reaction. Still memorable. The crust is nicely thin with that perfect balance--crispy but not dry. The margherita was cheesy, flavorful, and super well-balanced (not overly salty or greasy, which is rare). Just clean, simple, done right. My husband tried the lemon mushroom, and that was surprisingly good too--bright, a little different, but still comforting. I also love how easy it is here--you can grab a single slice or go all in on a full pie. They've got beer on tap, and there's even a free old-school arcade game, which made it extra fun for the family. Laid-back vibe, great pizza, and one of those places that sticks in your memory. Easily my favorite pizza spot in Santa Barbara lately.

We loved this place! We were only popping in for a quick snack but that left us craving this pizza later. We grabbed a couple of slices and a salad. The pizza was amazing. We both loved the lemon mushroom! We also had the cauliflower salad, which was also fantastic! Seating is limited but we found a spot.

Hawaiian pizza

Saint Bibiana is a delicious pizza spot! We ordered the Hawaiian pizza and it was perfect!

Chicken, pepperoni, and basil pizza, my favorite!

First time here! The pizza was very fresh savory, crispy, crunchy, flavorful, and delicious. Also, the people were super nice and friendly, and gave me a shark, great atmosphere with pretty music, and I had such a wonderful experience tonight.

Came on a Saturday night. They have about 5 tables inside. Just enough for our group of four to grab a table. Service was great all around. We got the Hawaiin and margarita. Both were great. Taste was unique, couldn't describe but something was different about it. Bathroom in the back. There's street parking around the residential streets. Might have to walk a bit but no issue.

Called ahead to order my food and it was ready exactly when they said it would be. So many choices and I decided on just a basic pepperoni pizza with hot honey. Mastering a basic pepperoni pizza is the baseline -- if that's off, the specialty pizzas won't stand a chance. Pizza had the perfect amount of sauce, cheese and loved the pepperoni! The crust was absolutely perfect. Very airy light and had the perfect amount of crisp to it. Loved that each slice is garnished with fresh basil to add the perfect pop of color and burst of flavor! I don't live in the area I was just up visiting family, however I cannot wait to go back and try something else. I love that they also sell pizza by the slice. Small little quaint establishment and nearby parking is very limited unless you are willing to walk a little. Pizza is my guilty pleasure and I can't wait to go back!

Saint Bibiana pizza on West Ortega Street in Santa Barbara is a nice local restaurant serving up fresh delicious pizza. Service is friendly and welcoming. The interior of the restaurant is clean and well lit. I think the pizza was very good and I plan on returning soon.

Sausage Pizza
Gabriel B.

Hands down the best pizza in Santa Barbara. Their sausage pizza had all fresh ingredients and didn't feel heavy at all. Service was amazing, our server gave us an extra dough knot even though I had only ordered one for the two of us. While the amenities say that dogs are allowed, this is further from the case. Our server had let us know that while they were previously allowed, the city didn't let the business place tables in front of the restaurant. It's not the business's fault, but please change the amenities description.

Came to Saint Bibiana because we were craving pizza and heard it was good. We ordered half pepperoni, half mushroom and olive, and we ate it all. Just two of us. So yes, very good pizza!!! They do have a few beers on tap, and a wine fridge with more bottled beer and wine. Cute little restaurant, small, with a few tables lined up against the wall. Super happy we came here for pizza. The only thing that I was disappointed about is that they don't have ranch. They do have a homemade dill ranch, which I think they called green ranch, it was very good as well but still wanted the option for regular ranch too. They did have red pepper flakes and parmesan cheese on the table. Seems like a popular place for pick up as I saw quite a few people come in and pick up their order!

Lemon Mushroom Pizza
Julie M.

My sister-in-law visited this establishment 4 years ago and had been craving the mushroom pizza and cauliflower salad ever since. She talked us into trying out her craving. Boy was she right. Excellent does not cover this pizza joint. And it is a joint the you will want to visit each time you are in Santa Barbara. The food. The staff. The small town feels. Give it a try.

Margherita Pizza
Maria L.

The pizza here is okay. I ordered Margherita Pizza and I enjoyed it but would not go back here for this item. They were extremely busy but the staff was really nice. I personally think there is better pizza out there but this is a good option if you're in the area.

Constance L.

Pizza is fantastic! Savory toppings, great cheese to sauce to crust ratio, and a really satisfying chewy and slightly crisp crust! I'd definitely come here again for pizza the next time I'm in SB. Staff are also super friendly. Docking a star for cleanliness because we ate in and the table was unbelievably sticky :// pretty offputting. I couldn't even wipe down the table myself because the napkins would stick to the table and tear...

Delightful family dinner (in town for a funeral) at a nice new find in Santa Barbara…read more FOOD & DRINK - Food -- from salads to pasta to meats to desserts -- was all high grade and enjoyed by everyone there. The cocktail menu had some clever mixes, and the wine menu offered plenty (maybe even too many) suggestions. SERVICE - Overall service was attentive and effective. The staff worked with our needs and handled a couple of unexpected situations (a couple in our party unexpectedly showing up with their kids in tow) with aplomb. AMBIANCE - While you can't really see much of the ocean, the front windows face it from across the closest street, and the sense of it being there (especially with the windows open) counts for a lot. The house itself is upscale decorated and set. VALUE - Upscale and food and service matches the upscale prices, but it felt like we got worth for what what paid. We paid a bit over $100 a person -- but that included cocktails and wine (and the two kids, who got plates of their own). NET-NET - We're not locals, but Toma is definitely going on our list for any future visits we make to Santa Barbara.

Solid Italian spot with a great location, but a few things to know before you go…read more The food was genuinely good. That part didn't disappoint. Service, though, was pretty meh. We mentioned it was our anniversary in the reservation notes and... nothing. Not even a quick "congrats." A small touch that would've gone a long way. The place is clearly popular. It was packed when we were there, so definitely book ahead if you don't want to wait. Parking nearby is tough too, so give yourself extra time to find a spot. Overall: good food, prime location, just don't expect much personal attention from them.

I love the thin crusts of their pizzas because it doesn't leave you feeling too heavy even if you ate the whole pizza (aka, no food coma crash despite the carbs). Tried the Caserta Pizza (5/5) It's made with double flor di latte sauce base that gives it creaminess. Then topped with Italian sausage, garlic pecorino, basil, smoked provolone cheese, and Calabrian chili. The sausage was savory, and the cheese was melty and of good quality. You can taste the mild spice from the chili flakes and the herbal-ness from the basil. Add-on some of their housemade chili oil sauce for an additional spice kick. Service was professional and courteous. We had a great time and really enjoyed our dine-in experience here. We'll be coming back to try out other flavors for sure.

I thought I must've been in Napoli. I was with some friends because we were on our way to a performance (I am a musician) and we were in a hurry. The waiter accommodated us and the pizza came out in under 10 minutes, I believe. The atmosphere is simple but nice. I was surprised that it wasn't more busy on a Friday night. I am telling you, this was fantastic pizza. I cannot wait to go back and to try some of the pasta.

We came here on a whim and everything about it was so enjoyable!…read more The service was good. Until we got seated, the service felt lukewarm, but our server, Joquin(?) made us feel so welcome! He gave us some great advice on what to order and we enjoyed every bit of it! There was also another gentleman that brought out the umbrella for us since it was getting sunny. We had a couple workers walk by without asking, but he was so kind enough to make us comfortable. The drinks we ordered were so refreshing. We ordered the Costa Blanca, De Aqui, and the Bengala de Granada. The drinks were so crisp that it almost felt like a palette cleanser. The yellowtail crudo was perfectly balanced between sweet and citrusy. The oysters looked spicy but were pleasantly mild! The octopus was tender and soft. The paella was flavorful and nicely garlicky. Loquita is small and cute. It's a little packed inside once it gets busy, so it was a relief we got seated outside.

This appetizer didn't stand out. It's your typical patatas bravas, but it wasn't as flavorful as I've had elsewhere. 3/5 Ensalada Invierno: roasted kale, baby beets, marcona almonds, orange supreme, coca bread, manchego foam. Very smoky! I was surprised how much the kale took on the smoke of the grill, but it was very different. 2/5 Mariscos: bomba rice, manila clams, jumbo prawns, grilled squid, squid ink, green peas, garlic aioli. The star of the show and absolutely delicious. It was so flavorful and the grilled squid was so tender and melt in your mouth delicious. 5/5 Overall, even though the starters were a miss for me, I would definitely come back for the paella and drinks again, and also to try a few of the other dishes.

Can a top-notch restaurant, still open, still match how we perceived them that long ago? Yup. FOOD & DRINK - A large list of Italian favorites, many of them with the chef's spin on them.
