Toma Restaurant & Bar Santa Barbara Reviews from The Last Year
One of my favorite places to eat in SB.
I was here again last weekend and the food was perfectly portioned and delicious. I absolutely cherish the waiting staff too!
This review is for our 6:30 dinner on 5/11.
Initially made reservations for 8:30 the night before through Opentable but sorely underestimated how hungry we would be by dinner time and ended up showing up two hours early, to which we were accommodated without issue at the bar. Service from the gentleman in black at the bar was spot on throughout the entire meal, from recommendations to attentiveness. Lights are kept dim and the house sommelier's knowledge may have you rethinking not getting a glass with your meal. Surprisingly high family presence as well. We started with their complimentary herb bread and butter as well as an order of the calamari. The tangy green onion sauce was a great alternative to typical marinara, and the bread was moist with a very light mouthfeel. Housemade Pasta was incredible - noodles were coated wonderfully with the rich yet delicate lemon butter sauce, and the shrimp and scallops stole the show with their freshness and size. The Black Spaghetti was pleasantly garlicky and was accompanied by a very healthy amount of well cooked clams. Strips of Calabrese salami provided a nice richness to the dish. Great date night spot.
I went to Toma for the first time last night and was
I went to Toma for the first time last night and was extremely underwhelmed. The food was great but the service was some of the worst I've experienced here in Santa Barbara. We waited an extremely long time to even be greeted and to receive any kind of water or bread. We watched as multiple other tables who came after us receive attention and were able to place their orders as we were still waiting for someone to come visit our table once. We felt as though we had to order everything at once as we worried we wouldn't be able to get another order placed within a reasonable time period. This was a good call on our part as the next time we saw our waiter we were ready for the check. We saw our waiter a total of two times throughout the night and when we asked for extra bread he forgot that as well. It was extremely disappointing to receive such terrible service from a place with great food and great ambiance. I wish I could say I'd be coming back but unfortunately I would much rather spend my money at a place that does not make me feel neglected as a guest.
We enjoyed our recent dinner at Toma, each ordering a fish
We enjoyed our recent dinner at Toma, each ordering a fish and steak daily special. Pros: The meal was delicious with beautiful presentation and thoughtful ingredients. The ambience was nice and intimate: perfect for a date night or my birthday, as it happened to be. The young man serving water was very friendly and polite. Cons: The server wouldn't make eye contact with me, only spoke to my husband, and then handed me the bill at the end of the meal. Something red got splashed across the side of my husband's Italian shirt, which we assume was from staff or another customer. It wasn't an area that he could have spilled on while we were enjoying our meal.
The service here was amazing.
The attentiveness and hospitality were top notch. This was my second time at Toma and the service has been above and beyond both time. The decor and all the settings were done beautifully. Restrooms were very clean. My only compliant is that some of the tables are too close together. Almost bumped into the other table trying to get up from the table. Now comes the reason for the two stars. My girlfriend ordered the cioppino and I, the rack of lamb. As well as some tuna cones to start the meal. The cones are amazing. My girlfriend has come here a few times just for the cones themselves. I cannot say the same for the rest of the food. I had ordered the rack of lamb medium rare as per the recommendation of the staff and received it closer to well done, but otherwise the vegetables and sauce complimented the lamb very well. The cioppino on the other hand was disgusting. The broth was overly fishy, to which you might say, "well its a seafood dish, of course its going to be fishy". Unfortunately the taste just lingered way after the meal. Possibly the worst cioppino and even frozen from costco was not this offensive. Did they use old seafood in the stew? Possibly. The cioppino was barely touched and we just opted to just not take the leftover home. We were still hungry, but luckily the funkzone has a lot of other eateries that do not disappoint. tl;dr great service, but disgusting food and a cook staff that doesnt know how to take temperature
I was super disappointed in this restaurant.
We were staying in Santa Barbara, and our hotel concierge raved about Toma when we asked for dinner recommendations. It also came up when we searched for nearby restaurants with outdoor dining and a view. I called to make a reservation and was told that the earliest seating they had was 9:30, which was weird because Yelp hours showed that they closed at 9. I assumed the hours weren't updated. The host also told us that the city took away their outdoor tables, but they were also super cool if we asked if we could add a few people to our reservation. We were seated pretty shortly after arriving, which was pretty good for a party of 7. The complimentary fried olives seemed like they'd been sitting out for a long time, and I was glad I didn't pay for them. The fried artichokes we ordered were similar, not much flavor and weren't freshly fried. The squash blossoms were probably the best app, although I think a little less goat cheese would be a better flavor balance. I ordered the Seafood Pasta, which other friends at our table had said they were thinking of ordering. It was probably the most bland, unseasoned, flavorless pasta I've ever had. The "sauce" was more like water. I liked the texture and chewiness of the noodles, but that was about it. The salmon chunks and the scallops had no seasoning or sear, and the worst was the shrimp.. it was translucent and undercooked. I hated leaving most of a $39 dinner on the table, but I was afraid of raw shrimp. I'm a big proponent of saying something in the moment as opposed to a Yelp review, but no one came by after that to ask how our food was. It was obvious that they were closed and trying to clean up, but I don't know why we were allowed to dine in at 9:30 in that case.
Ohhhhhhh my! We found ourselves a good one! Staying the
Ohhhhhhh my! We found ourselves a good one! Staying the night in Santa Barbara and wanted a special meal. Husband looked an online and saw one of the top rated restaurants were near our hotel! We arrived 20 minutes early, cuz we were hungry! lol! We were the first ones seated in the restaurant. The staff was extremely attentive the entire meal. The bread and butter and fried olives were amazing. I knew we were in for a treat! Ordered calamari as our starter. Juan the waiter was soooo personable, and a natural! He sold me on the fresh catch of the day: prosciutto wrapped halibut, asparagus and carrots on a bed of polenta! SOLD!!!! My hubs got the ravioli with fresh ricotta, kale, and parmesan. It was so amazing! We shared the raspberry Mouse with berries for dessert! Bam! So so good!! We give the entire staff a 5 star rating as well but Juan deserves extra recognition! Such a fun, easy going guy! We'll be back! And, we'll bring friends.
Fantastic dinner at Toma.
Top notch food and service in a small, intimate setting. Grilled octopus, lasagna, gem salad and squash flowers were outstanding! A special-occasion place, or not, you don't want to miss it! The wine selection was excellent and our cocktails were inventive and delicious. Already looking forward to returning soon!
Pasta was cooked to perfection, service was excellent, and
Pasta was cooked to perfection, service was excellent, and the atmosphere was cozy! Highly recommend Toma!
Holy smokes Batman.
A fantastic spot for the best Italian cuisine on the west coast. Start with Raul at the bar for a the best artisan cocktail you've ever had. Then make sure and request Juan for service beyond expectations for a dinner that will knock your socks off. Great wine list too for you fellow winos. You can do it!
