Sachi | Ramen & Robata Bar — Restaurant in Santa Barbara

Saved the day with excellent food!

Moving day. Car breaks down. At new place with no food. It’s Monday and my usual Thai places are closed.

And I’m so glad they were.

I ordered Tofu spring rolls and Curry Chicken. The 3 large rolls were very fresh, filled with herbs and good sized pieces of tofu. The wraps were moist and the roll had more vegetables than simply being stuffed with noodles.

The chicken curry came in two separate containers so it was hot and the broth poured over and into the bean sprouts and noodles. I was very appreciative that the bowl was solid and I could eat out of it. The meat was very tender so the large pieces could be split easily. The broth was spicy but not overwhelming and filled with color and texture.

Not only was the food delicious, the prices were reasonable and the portions almost too much for one. Both a rarity in Santa Barbara.

I liked the food so much I actually called them and told them. When was the last time you did that? Definitely moving this restaurant to my...

Don't be turned away by the other reviews saying the service was no good or it's too expensive for what it is.

Sachi was none of these things when I ate there the last couple of days.

The food was delicious, the restaurant clean, the service was fast and friendly. Their other Japanese dishes are quite good. The menu is varied, they things other than just ramen and udon if you are looking for that.

As far as price it was actually a great value as far as Japanese dishes are concerned. The ramen specifically is a good deal because it costs about as much as most ramen places but the serving size it actually quite large.

Our server was attentive, not pushy and very friendly. I would have gone back a third time if I had more time in my visit in...

We heard about this place so since we were in the neighborhood yesterday, we decided to try it out. Luis, the waiter was super wonderful, bringing us waters, and then the beers we ordered. We both ordered the Seafood Udon Soup - and an Egg roll. (3 to an order). Large bowls of soup and the tofu eggrolls quite sumptuous as was the sauce we dipped them into. We parked near St. Francis Pet Hospital since we needed to make an appointment for our cat anyway. There seems to be plenty of street parking nearer and I believe a public parking nearby. It was clean, clean bathrooms, warm with door closed and the service was perfect. We look forward to returning and trying out more dishes! And, you can order online! It is at 731...
