Santa Barbara Restaurant & Bakery — Restaurant in Newark

Parking in this area is a total nightmare so thank God they have a little parking lot right next to it for their customers!

Fantastic service, i wish I had gotten her name but our waitress was so attentive & super sweet. She made sure we had everything we needed while being patient with us. Loved herr

i wish I had taken a pic of the food, it was half a chicken with french fries, rice with two sunny side eggs and sweet plantains. SLAPPEDD 🔥

My hubs got the spicy ceviche appetizer and he said it was exactly what he wanted, he also got half chicken and rice and beans for his entree, he said we're definitely coming back!

Also they have an amazing bakery, i got the caramel filled crack powder cookies 🤣 (alfajores) and a Chantilly cake 🍰 I CAN'T WAIT but I'm so stuffed I...

I am very disappointed this used to be my go to place. Now, I would never go back!! I have been wanting the tallarín spaghetti (pesto spaghetti) for a while now. I finally decided to order and find a bugs head in my food. After the pandemic you guys have gone down hill.

This order was in fact from your restaurant. I still have my receipt and other pictures without the ingredients you are referring to. Yes, the other ingredients were red pepper flakes that I added for my liking. Your establishment was in fact contacted and made aware of this. A manager was suppose to call me back and I never got a call. So, all though you may want to find reasons not to take accountability for this filth, that is the restaurants problem. I did everything a customer is...

12/7/2018 - this place has really gone down . I placed an order and was told it was going to be ready in 15-20 minutes for pick up. I get there within the specified time and see my order sitting at a table in the bag waiting to get picked up. Instead of ringing my order , I was told to sit and wait. I waited for a solid 15 mins more, and then choose to cancel my order (I don’t have all day). The lady tells me , “oh it’s ready now”. She points to the same bag I spotted upon arriving and said it’s mine.

This is my thinking , “what the hell? Why did you tell me to wait then? You eat those cold fries because I don’t want them” she was rude and lost a 20-30 dollar order. At this rate, they’ll be closing soon. Do yourself a favor and don’t waste...
