Loquita Santa Barbara Reviews from The Last Year
Went here recently and I couldn't have been happier with
Went here recently and I couldn't have been happier with the food, drinks, and ambiance. Make sure to make a reservation as they are very busy. The cocktails were great, the tapas were excellent and the best part was the paella. If you are planning to have paella, make sure to put that in quickly after you are seated as it takes a while. The evening we went, it was backed up and took 90 minutes to get our paella. The server let us know when we sat it would take a while so we knew it going in. For that reason we kept ordering tapas which you can get most of them in individual servings which was really enjoyable so we could try additional. I will definitely be going back here next time I am in Santa Barbara.
Is this place a joke??? $95 dollars for a seafood paella
Is this place a joke??? $95 dollars for a seafood paella that is only 12" in diameter? Waitress said we should get the paella for 4 people so we thought it would be a good amount for the main meal and we laughed when the paella came to the table. We were like ummmmm where is the rest of it?! It's a paella size for 2 people. Barely any rice, maybe $20 of seafood. I felt like I could've gotten this at Whole Foods and made it at home. The management or owner should take a trip to Spain. Major disappointment
Definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting from out
Definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting from out of town and don't usually have Spanish style cuisines near their hometown Started off our dinner with the Crudo. I loved this as our starter since it was plated very simple (as in no extra topping to distract the star of the show). An amazing flavor overall. Not too heavy to start us off which I did like. Next, we enjoyed the Patatas Bravas. This one had such bold flavors that paired VERY well with each other. The potatoes were nice and crispy on the outside and soft in the inside. All the flavor was in the sauce! Just wowed with every bite I took. So savor them! Next dish we enjoyed was the Pulpo. First of all, I would like to say I've had horrible experiences eating pulpo so I grew to not like it nor prefer it. I decided to give it another try and I was not disappointed. I would love to show my appreciation to the chef(s) that prepared this dish from start to finish, it was plated up so beautifully. Thanks to these chefs I now can say I love pulpo. ( I'll be comparing this pulpo to many others and doubt that it will ever be topped) The pulpo had a nice char to it that gave it a slight crunch on the outside and a beautifully butter soft chew. Next dish we enjoyed was the Chicken and Chorizo Paella. I've never had paella prior to this but have heard many things about how good it is and the crispy rice at the bottom. I think this dish was the star that stole the show for me. I had high expectations and this exceeded everything. The rice was just BURSTING with flavor, the chicken was cooked and seasoned amazingly. I kept grabbing more chicken for myself. The shishito peppers could've be a dish of their own, I still liked them in the paella though! The lemon aioli gave it a nice tanginess to the bite so I wish I had ask for more on the side! I thought the paella had a good crispiness to it but my bf thinks it needed a little bit more. Last dish we ate was the Torrijas. We were stuck on what to choose just because everything sounded so good to try. Our waitress, Miko (I believe was her name), told us excitedly to grab the torrijas. One thing I'll always go for is if my server if super excited about an option. They never disappoint! First, I would like to say the bread had the flavor of a mix between a funnel cake, French toast, and bread pudding. Such a weird way to put it but i loved it! The creme anglaise had a nice sweetness to it , not too much that leaves you with a bad tooth ache. The berries on top were both sweet and tarty so it balance really well with the entirety of the dish. My bf got a free scoop of ice cream so he put that on top and it honestly made it taste even better! Overall 10/10 experience here. I couldn't be any happier to try an amazing Spanish menu. Our server Miko gave us such an unforgettable experience with her hospitality that night and would love to give our appreciation to her! Thank you!! I'll definitely be back here to try other dishes!
Visiting the funk zone for the first time and decided to go
Visiting the funk zone for the first time and decided to go for some tapas. It was a long afternoon so details are fuzzy but I do remember the drinks were fantastic and the food was even better. Bravo. I did forget and leave the brewery tshirt I had just bought there but that was on me.
Excellent, great quality food.
We ordered croquettes and paella and it was superb! The only reason for 4 Stars is due to the noise level in the diving room. The dining room is a bit chaotic since there is an open seating bar, this causes a lot of traffic in the restaurant and high noise levels. We were celebrating our anniversary and we're unable to hear each other speak. Also, we made a reservation and still had to wait a bit to get seated. Food made it worth it, however could have been a better experience overall.
Delicious food - the paella is a must! Cool cocktails,
Delicious food - the paella is a must! Cool cocktails, wonderful service, loud but fun vibes. Make a reservation and try it.
The service and atmosphere were excellent, but
The service and atmosphere were excellent, but unfortunately, the food didn't meet expectations. Four of us were surprised that this establishment is Michelin rated. It's made us question the reliability of the Michelin guide.
Loquita has good food & good vibes.
We started off with the encanto drink, which was refreshing. I do wish they had more non-alcoholic choices though! Then, we got the pan con tomate. The bread was good & the tomato sauce was fine. I think ur needed some more spices, personally. We also had peras with goat cheese. The peras & orange pieces were lovely & sweet, which contrasted nicely with the tart & sharp goat cheese. Next, we had the patatas bravas which were sooo good we were debating getting another round haha. The star was the paella de mariscos. Do note that it takes average of 45 min to get so order as early as possible! The rice was so good & garlicky. The shrimp were nice & plump and the scallops and mussels were tender & full of flavor. We ended the dinner with the churros, which to me are a skip. The churros were dry & the sauces were forgettable & not very innovative. The service was good but I wish we got checked on a bit more. The bathroom was clean but a little weird because the stalls were frosted glass so you could see silhouettes of everyone. Overall a good experience!
Everything about this place was AMAZZZZING.
My fiance & I drove out here for a date night & we got a good amount of stuff. I see why everyone raves about the paella. I also LOVEEEEE cold cuts so I was in heaven. We tried the mariscos paella which was amazing. Customer service was great. Will definitely come back out here for this place. I really wish I would've gotten more pictures of our food but lightening was pretty bad in there & food was too good to even pick up my phone haha.
Excellent service , wonderful atmosphere and fantastic food.
We shared two paellas. The seafood and the chicken & chorizo. Both were bursting with flavor, seasoned perfectly and cooked to perfection. We split this between 5 people and there was plenty to eat. We had a potato appetizer along with a mushroom appetizer. They were both exceptional. The potatoes were seasoned with garlic and red sauce -- phenomenal! The patio is beautiful and very relaxing. We will go back. A joyful evening!

Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.

Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
Newbie sellers— how fast do your reservations sell?
I have some reservations coming up tomorrow that have gotten lots of views but haven’t sold yet. I haven’t made a sale yet since I just joined this week. I keep lowering the price, but am worried they won’t sell. How long did it take you to sell your first reservations? And did you have success being reimbursed by AT for no-show or cancellation fees? Just looking for a little reassurance. Thanks!

This app is a catfish and overrun by people programming “bots” and algorithms. It makes it frustrating for someone not well versed in this to have any movement. I thought this would be a fun side hustle, but unfortunately it’s become like any other “side hustle”. Don’t waste your time with this crap. Not a question, just a suggestion. Also don’t pay these fake “gurus” hundreds of dollars to teach you. Might as well sign up for a software class. 😕
