I AM MAD AT MYSELF FOR NOT STOPPING ANY SOONER, this little joint is serving some incredible food here! Nestled on Ojai-Santa Paula Road you will find them RIGHT on corner of the technical border of these two cities. This a gem for Santa Paula. Cute little spot in the mountains where you will find indoor and outdoor seating. Menu here had a great variety and the prices are beset reasonable! For $30 bucks I got a eastern burger, an order of taquitos, an order of tater tot's and fries along with two drinks. Great deal in this economy. The western burger was phenomenal as every ingredient in there was of great quality. This burger was a 10/10. The corn taquitos with green salsa were great, a solid 8.5 out of 10. Overall I just can't wait to come back and try some more food! Don't be like me and sleep on this place, you will regret just like I did. Thanks the Sunmit Drive in for the great hospitality and service! Till be time .

I ordered the Philly cheesesteak with spicy mayonnaise and Swiss cheese along with an optional order of french fries crispy. So far so good right? I must say when the food arrived after about 20 minutes. It did look mouth watering. Unfortunately, the cheesesteak sandwich was virtually flavor free. No hint of spicy anything and I actually had to add salt to it. It was plenty hot. There seemed to be a lot of it but no flavor. Also, the french fries for some unknown reason looked crispy, but were lukewarm. Anyway, it was 20+ dollars by the time the smoke cleared away and I won't be going back or recommending it to anyone who is interested in food. Probably a nice place to hang out and have a milkshake or soda on the way to or from Santa Paula.

If you know anything about Gunsmoke BBQ and Beer in Santa Paula, you know their barbecue already…read morehas a solid reputation....but finally making it into their restaurant just confirmed everything I'd been hearing. I've had the chance to try their BBQ at local events around Ventura County, and it always left an impression. They make some darn good BBQ. BUT for this visit we ended up highlighting something just as exciting...their vegetarian options! It definitely says a lot when a barbecue place has great non meat options. I came with my friend Raquel (yelp elite) for lunch and we went all in on their vegetarian plates...well with one exception, we ordered the deviled eggs too. Let's start there: Their famous Candied Bacon Deviled Eggs are a must. Creamy, flavorful filling, lightly battered egg, topped with crispy bacon...yeah, they're as good as they sound. 10/10. Now for the vegetarian standouts: The Fried Avocado Bites were simple but done so right. Perfectly fried and paired with house made sauces that really brought everything together. Super shareable and perfect as a starter. 10/10. The Cauliflower Tacos were a reminder that you absolutely do NOT need meat for a great taco. These were hearty and loaded with (again) incredible sauces. My friend was obsessed and I get why. They were good, but I would prefer a meat protein taco at a spot like this. 7/10 for me. Beyond the food, the experience really shines here. The space has this perfect mix of country charm and rock n roll edge which is such a fun vibe. Service was top notch, and we love when owners are present and genuinely care. They stopped by to check in, which always makes a place feel extra special. And shoutout to our server Bentley, an absolute sweetheart. Next time you're in Santa Paula, do yourself a favor and check them out.

I sadly became a pescatarian right as Gunsmoke BBQ was opening. I have friends who have been…read morewanting to try it so I wanted to give it a shot as well. Gunsmoke is located in Downtown Santa Paula. I didn't pay close attention but I don't believe they have private parking. If you don't know SP, there is street parking and some parking lots. I would be mindful when you are planning to come for parking. I came with a friend midday so there was plenty of parking and seats as well so we got seated right away. I was happy to see the non meat options they have available. I was a bit bummed out they didn't have their hummus but it's just another excuse for me to go back. I did end up getting their cauliflower tacos. My friend got their avocado fries and their devil eggs. I had never had devil eggs, and tried those and were so good. I wanted more but I had already had all my tacos. I did appreciate the owner coming to greet us and finding out I was pescatarian. He was nice, mentioned that even though they are a BBQ spot, they still want to value those customers that don't eat, and asked if there's anything I think of to let him know to see if they can add it to the menu. Really appreciated that. Overall, bummed out I wasn't able to try their BBQ. The options I did try were all really good. I would come back.

I was dining alone and sat at the bar. It was extremely busy, but Antonia, the bartender, was absolutely killing it. She was nonstop the entire time and clearly doing her best to keep up with everyone, so I definitely want to give her credit. Because it was so busy, it did take a while to get a drink, and my bread came out with my meal. I ordered the filet trio and thought the flavors were really good, but I asked for my steak medium and it came out well done. I was a little disappointed, but I'm not someone who likes to send food back, so I gave it a chance anyway. Another patron mentioned that it isn't normally that busy, so I'm thinking I may have just caught them on an unusually hectic night. The food, atmosphere, and service were still good enough that I'd come back and try it again, hopefully on a quieter evening.

What a gem!!! We…read morecame in on a Saturday, no one else was there but a few ppl came after. He is located in an alley with beautiful art. You can park in the back free parking lot if you don't want to park on the street. After ordering, our food was out in 10-15 min CHEF BURGER - Fresh, flavorful, and masterfully put together. The sweet potato fries are hands down THE BEST sweet potato fries you could ever have. He puts the Habit's fries to absolute shame in every way. CORNED BEEF & CABBAGE - My husband got this and we both loved it. Like LOOOOVED IT. It was a St Patrick's day special but I hope he keeps it as a permanent item!!!!!! SMOOTHIES - So fresh! It was like someone made them at the bar on a beach. He uses real ingredients, not powder and syrups. Prices were fantastic, and the food was even better. I appreciate that he uses real high quality ingredients. I seriously can't wait to come back and try more things! He's been open for 3 years - however he opened just before Covid. I'm so happy he was able to survive that because his food is phenomenal. This will definitely be the next "it" spot in Santa Paula!

I finally had the chance to eat here after I had some business cards printed. What really stood out to me when I first walked in was the cozy atmosphere and the personal greeting you get from the staff. You could tell this is the kind of place where the staff takes pride in what they do. I ordered a burger with a salad and root beer. I always pay with cash for my meals and I was told I got a discount that day for paying with cash. In all honesty, I believe they deserve every penny with a tip on top of that. My burger had a nice mix of melted cheese and mushrooms and my salad had feta and a side of balsamic vinegar, my favorite. As I ate I had over heard another customer ask about David's well-being. The customer had mentioned that he was a compassionate man who had given them a hand in the past and had cooked for them when they were going through their own struggle. They said he had asked, "what would the people like in this community to eat?" Just by hearing this account, I knew this place was made by a righteous man of character. Character that may seem has disappeared in the world, but David was proof it still exists. I did not have the honor to meet David, but I did have the honor to eat at his restaurant. He was definitely loved and will be missed by the community. Thank you chef for serving the good people of Santa Paula!

If you're looking for a place with great food, cold drinks, and an atmosphere that feels like home,…read moreThe Draft Sports Bar & Grill in Santa Paula is the place to be. It's become my go-to spot to relax, unwind, and spend quality time with great friends. One of the things that keeps my wife and me coming back is the outstanding hospitality. The entire staff, including owner Greg, always goes above and beyond to make everyone feel welcome. They're friendly, respectful, attentive, and genuinely make you feel like part of the family. In all the years we've been coming here, we've never had a bad experience. This past Saturday, my wife and I stopped in for lunch because we were craving something different. I ordered the crispy chicken sandwich "wet," covered in their homemade buffalo sauce with bacon and lettuce. You can customize it with cheese, tomato, or any toppings you like. It came with a generous serving of perfectly crispy fries that paired perfectly with the sandwich. My wife ordered the wings and chose half traditional buffalo and half garlic lemon pepper. They were cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. Her meal came with celery, carrots, ranch, extra buffalo sauce, ketchup, and she couldn't resist adding an order of their delicious fries as well. The food arrived quickly, was fresh, hot, and absolutely delicious. The portions were generous, the prices were very reasonable, and, as always, we had an amazing time. Whether you're looking to grab an ice-cold beer, catch the big game, enjoy a great meal, or simply relax in a welcoming sports bar atmosphere, I highly recommend The Draft. Great people, great food, great service, and an all-around fantastic place that never disappoints.

Everything has always been delicious, and that's actually what brought me back. I remembered this place being amazing when I was in college about 10 years ago, so I was excited to return. Unfortunately, this visit was disappointing. We ordered 4 basic cheeseburgers, small fries, and only 2 drinks, and the total came to $67. For what we received, that price felt incredibly high, especially compared to other burger places nearby. The burgers looked great with all the fresh toppings and vegetables, but the flavor just wasn't there. They were big and visually appealing, yet surprisingly bland. It felt like a lot of ingredients piled together without much seasoning or taste to make the burger stand out. The one bright spot was the customer service. The staff was friendly, helpful, and genuinely sweet throughout our visit, which I really appreciated. Overall, I was shocked and disappointed. I don't mind spending $67 if the food is worth it, but in this case, it simply wasn't. The desserts and ice cream are still 5-star quality, but based on this experience, the burgers were mediocre, flavorless, and way too expensive for what they were.
