   Every person in Santa Barbara should visit this place. Amazing. If you are a fan of mint-chocolate ice cream, please try a scoop of theirs. It is made with their farm-grown mint.

   Beautiful setting although it was our anniversary and we wanted a table with a view and they didn’t accommodate us. Food was very good.

   It was a beautiful setting with the most amazing food. We were there to celebrate a birthday, they made the experience so effortless from the moment we turned into their property. From the valet to the hostess everyone was welcoming. They even wished my husband happy birthday with their initial greeting. One of the best meals we have ever had and one of the most relaxing. Definitely worth trying.

    The tortilla soup is certainly nothing special - too much tomato in the soup base and served lukewarm. The ambience is nice in the outside area in front of Plough & Angel, should you be seated there. Except for some noisy yard work being done, it was quiet.

    Was looking for a special lunch experience in SanBarbara/ Montecito area - and found it at Stonehouse! Driving slowly to San Ysidro Ranch, the turnoff is an inviting (olive)tree lined approach to the properties. Prepare to stop at a booth as you get close. You’ll be directed to the restaurant and parking valet area. The restaurant has an amazing feel as we walked through to our outside upper level covered patio.table..there is also a patio below with umbrellas.... Wait staff are just excellent in all descriptions ...attentive but not untimely with any needs... We enjoyed an organic chicken salad and the halibut tacos....a cocktail from a full bar and a nice glass of wine..In short - food is delicious- visually pleasing....We can not wait to enjoy dinner.

    A perennial favorite of our family, The Stonehouse at San Ysidro Ranch never disappoints. The setting is the most beautiful and perfectly placed property in the Santa Barbara area. The original ranch buildings and purpose are elegantly integrated into the total experience. An abundance of of natural features such as water fountains, fragrant plantings and magnificent hummingbirds and butterflies are woven into the facility. The staff is classically trained, attentive but not hovering. Offerings on the menu are unique and prepared at the topmost quality - there are no mistakes or near-misses. The Stonehouse is probably the ultimate dining experience on the West Coast.

    The most beautiful place to have either a great lunch or dinner with a view of the ocean or gardens. The grounds are fabulous. Our food was excellent as well as the service. Loved that they were not overwhelming at your table all the time. Enjoyed a wonderful lunch with my friend talking and laughing. Thank you Stonehouse. We will return next year!

    Not been there since pandemic started. Glad to see the restoration of the dining area was done in such a way to honor the tradition of one of our favorites places to eat. Seating was done to spread customers over the lunch period. As always, outstanding service from the beginning to the end. There was a little back up in the kitchen and they served a cup of their delicious tortilla soup as an apology for the wait which wasn't that long. Thanks again for another lovely experience. We live in Ventura and over the years we have never been disappointed. Thank you.

    Once in a lifetime experience! My husband and I had dinner at Stonehouse and it was lovely! Staff was very friendly, helpful and attentive. Our portions were so large. I make a special point of this because typically higher end restaurants serve small portions. Stonehouse is the exception! Romantic setting. We will be back.

    One of the most beautiful places on earth. The food is ridiculously good, and don't sleep on their rosemary bread! Gives bread in Paris and Italy a run for its money! Also an incomparable wine list. Peach belini on a hot day is bonkers as well.
