    Absolutely gorgeous views but mediocre food. The tuna melt fell apart right away. We were excited to try there house chips but it was just a bag of potato chips. The tri-tip sandwich was basic and forgettable. The best part of the meal was the pickle slice on the side of the sandwiches. Two stars one for the pickle and one for the view.

    No frills 19th Hole with smiling faces, grill food and one hell of a view. Weekday lunch, just before the morning tee time rush arrived Order at the window, take a number and a seat from one of the 6 four tops inside or 10 out with a killer view of the links and sea. I chose the Elwood grilled turkey at $13 with a side of chips. No fryer so no fries. Did not need them anyway. The sandwich came out quickly and was good. While there's nothing special about the menu, I'll come here for the views. The other golf course down the street has better food, table service and a nice view but they're slower and not on the ocean cliffs. Looking for a quick lunch that's not packed and take in the ocean, look no further and tee up at the Sandpiper Grill.

    This place is such a beautiful place to have lunch but one of the workers makes the whole experience awful! This girl literally sat on the food counter where the food was being placed and all the condiments are at! She didn't get up to take orders or to deliver food to the customers! She had an unpleasant facial expression and was rude! I honestly don't see any purpose to have her there's as she didn't tend to not one customer! very disappointing since it's such a nice place to have a meal!

    This is a great grill on a gorgeous location!! The BBQ was delicious, inexpensive and served quickly. The sandwich was HUGE but there were some pretty wilty pieces in my salad which made it a little unappetizing so that's why I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5. But I'll definitely be back to Sandpiper Grill!! We heard about Sandpiper Grill on our Axxess card. We used our Axxess card for the buy one, get one deal.

    The amazing view!!

(I rarely use that…read moreterm) Gino prepared a fabulous Tanqueray TEN martini The Giant BBQ smoked beef rib was perfection! Just enough smoke, fat was beautifully rendered yielding a juicy, tender result, BBQ sauce delicious... I polished off the entire rib! Mashed potatoes were fluffy, buttery, perfectly seasoned, Caesar salad was fresh, crispy Romaine, dressing homemade and perfectly balanced, creamy with punches of garlic and lemon. Sky was my marvelous server, she is so friendly, expedient, professional and knowledgeable of the menu Kim and Gino are very hospitable, good people that work tirelessly to provide excellent fare and friendly service ...I can't stop thinking about that BBQ beef rib!

    Disappointing experience at a place we've loved for years. My partner and I have been regulars at…read moreTimbers Roadhouse for years, stopping by 4-5 times annually whenever we pass through Goleta. This visit was unfortunately our worst experience there by far. It was the first time we'd sat in the dining room instead of the bar. It was early - around 5:00. The happy hour buffalo chicken sliders and Brussels sprouts were good. However, things went downhill with our entrees. My tri-tip dinner (ordered medium rare) arrived as two thin slices of medium rare covering three slices of gray, well-done meat underneath. It was tough and tasted old - it seemed like the kitchen was trying to hide poor quality, overcooked meat. My partner's ribeye was cooked to the right temperature but extremely gristly - only about half of the twelve ounces was actually edible. When I sent my tri-tip back, our server (who was genuinely trying to help) returned to say they were out of tri-tip and a new one would take 45 minutes. By then my partner was halfway through his steak. I asked to just have the meat removed and I'd just eat my sides. Here's where it went from bad to worse: the manager (owner's daughter) charged us $7 each for the sides as "à la carte" items and argued when I explained I only ate them because that's all I had. She eventually offered 50% off the entrée but her confrontational attitude made things worse. The owner was more understanding when we escalated it to her, but the damage was done. Our server did her best in a tough situation - the issues were with the kitchen and management's handling of the problem. Really heartbroken about this experience at a place we've loved. We'll probably try again someday but will stick to burgers and salads at the bar.

    I ordered the B.L.T.A. to go and it was honestly the worst sandwich I have ever paid for…read more Not only did it look nothing like the picture, the quality of ingredients was extremely disappointing across the board: - Stale, basic white store bought sandwich bread (think Wonder Bread) - Pre-shredded, store-bought lettuce - Two slices of tomato total -- one per half (and they were completely different sizes) - Less than half of an avocado for the entire sandwich - Plain mayonnaise, not the "Tabasco mayo" advertised - Cheap, fatty bacon that tasted like low-end grocery store brand Did the cook have to stop at the grocery store on their way to work today? On top of that, the ingredients were distributed completely unevenly between the two halves. I literally had to take both halves apart and redistribute everything myself just to make it edible. Nothing about this felt fresh. I also swapped the "house-made chips" for tater tots -- which turned out to be the exact Ore-Ida frozen tots you buy at the grocery store, and even worse... they were undercooked and mushy. I am willing to bet I just paid $16 for about $2.50 worth of ingredients. For $16, this was not just underwhelming -- it was bad, REAL BAD. Do NOT order this sandwich.

I was pleased to see that happy hour was still being offered despite the holiday. The menu offers a nice selection of bites and discounted drinks at great prices! For food, we ordered the carne asada flatbread, onion rings, garlic herb fries, and chicken wings. All of which were enjoyable! Although, I will mention that the carne asada had a slightly funny taste that wasn't very pleasing. It was tolerable, but could have been better. Despite that, the food was delicious. We also ordered the white chocolate & raspberry cheesecake. The cheesecake comes from the Cheesecake Factory! So, you know it's going to be good and it was. The presentation was beautiful as well. For drinks, I had the Prickly Pear margarita and Paloma. Both were well made and refreshing to drink. I love the rooftop vibes here! The layout is great and the views are amazing. More like Mountain View's, but still nice to be up high with sky views. There's also a restroom available, so you don't have to go downstairs. Our waitress Caitlyn was such a sweetheart throughout our visit. She had great recommendations and consistently checked on us. The music was great and it was good vibes all around! They have different bands that play here. Check out their website or instagram for more information on that. Overall, a lovely time was had and I would definitely come back here.

The best thing about this restaurant is their fries! I never had fries quite like there fries. Their fries are so crispy and is one of the main reasons why we come here. I would usually rate this restaurant 5 stars but after this recent visit I am giving 4 stars. They raised their prices and were extremely disappointed they cut the fries portion in half. Especially since this was one of the best things about this restaurant. I have attached a photo of eating here at Jane's and Aug 2025 and coming back 4 months later to be severed fries that is half the size. They now put the fries in a fry container to make it seem like it's more fries but once you put it on the plate it's such a small amount of fries. The second reason why we come here is for the coconut cake. The cake is always moist never dry when we order the cake however sometimes it can be a hit or miss with how much cake you will actually get. Because sometimes if you order the cake you will get a slice that has more cream and frosting and not as much of a cake layer. Not to mention they raised the price to $14 for a single slice of cake?! Which is so expensive. $14 is almost like ordering half a cake. I really hope that Jane's Restaurant can consider making these changes because their fries and coconut cake is what makes this restaurant amazing Service -Staff is always friendly Note: -They have plenty of indoor and outdoor seating -They are in the same plaza that has a few stores and other restaurants close by
