Review by Neva Pagac

Opal is a delightful gem in Santa Barbara! 🌟 The atmosphere is a perfect blend of cozy and trendy, making it ideal for both solo dining and family gatherings. I thoroughly enjoyed the organic roasted vegetable salad and the juicy herb-crusted salmon - both bursting with flavors!

Save room for their outstanding desserts; the chocolate lava cake is a must-try! 🍰 With their attentive and friendly service, plus wheelchair accessibility throughout, this women-owned spot truly caters to everyone. Don’t forget to sip on their refreshing cocktails during happy hour! I can’t wait to return for dinner...!
