About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for fine wines
We are delighted to have added additional outdoor seating but Santa Barbara nights are chilly so bring a sweater or light jacket!

Fresh, local ingredients, prepared with care. Excellent wines that reflect the quality and character of our region and work in concert with the cuisine. Warm, inviting ambiance, service at a relaxed, leisurely pace. Santa Barbara ‘Wine Country Cuisine’ means we source our ingredients using an ‘as-fresh-and-as-local-as-possible’ approach, with fish from the Santa Barbara Channel and produce from the surrounding countryside. We then take into account how these flavors can be presented in concert with our local wines. We believe you’ll taste the difference. Bon Appètit!

    We have dined at Bouchon for over a decade. Every meal has been memorable and during our recent we savored the crab cakes, goat cheese tart, and venison loin. All are stand out dishes. Service is everything you expect in a fine dining experience. We look forward to returning to Bouchon.
