This is a very special restaurant. I've always viewed The Chase as an upscale, fun place to dine. The interior is dark and cozy with white Christmas lights adorning the walls and pillars. It gives off a romantic vibe and is the ideal spot to patronize after a stressful workday. The food and the service have always been great. Personally, I love their chicken picatta - but you won't go wrong with anything on the menu here. The restaurant is well-staffed and I've always felt that the service has been nothing short of stellar.

Food is tasty and staff attentive. Inside they have a long bar with burgundy tufted curved booths. Outside is cheery with Xmas decorations. Portions are big! Lunch menu , prices are reasonable. Traditional Italian cuisine. I've had their chicken piccata and another time, shrimp piccata. Both piccata dishes were delicious! My husband had their meat lasagna and another time the chicken Milanese. He enjoyed it!

Nice quiet spot in the heart of downtown Santa Barbara. They have tables all over the front of the restaurant, some right on State street creating a very unique experience. Their iconic Italian decor and friendly atmosphere, makes them a family favorite. I had their famous bacon cheeseburger. It was grilled to perfection; AMAZING! Their tiramisu is really awesome as well. PLUS! Parking is super easy since the city parking lot is literally on their back entrance.

We try to come here when where ever we are visiting Santa Barbara which isn't very often unfortunately... Today I stopped in and Edgar took great care of me -enjoyed the shrimp Parmesan, delicious, with a salad and glass of wine and a beautiful outdoor patio... thank you for the great service and food!! It's so nice especially during these tough times when service is in short supply to have such excellent attention paid to you... Thanks again Edgar!! Such a lovely afternoon!

Fantastic service, delicious food! We had a bottle of the Justin 2017 wine and split the chicken picatta with the Alfredo fettuccini. The fettuccini was so rich and tasty. The chicken was so moist with an amazing flavorful sauce. Definitely would recommend and will eat here again. It's so nice especially during these tough times when service is in short supply to have such excellent attention paid to you... Thanks again Edgar!! Such a lovely afternoon!
