Del Valle Grill - (Near Goleta, CA)

Carlos Garcia Kona was a fantastic place. The atmosphere was beautiful and very welcoming. It was tastefully decorated and very clean. The hosts and servers very kind and helped us with our orders. We were in need of nothing while there. The food was so good. The moco loco was delicious. The Calamari steak was so tasty. The BBQ plate pure awesomeness. Our server Donna was phenomenal and very accomodating. When in the area again, we will definitely come back. Great job Kona.

Sarah Vlazny Everything was excellent!! We tried the deviled eggs, brik, and lamb stew and all were incredible. Lamb stew had lots of beautifully tender lamb. Even the bread was really something special. Service was impeccable, ambiance delightful and cozy. Will be back and definitely recommend Also - loved that they asked if we were ready for the next course once we had finished our appetizers. Sometimes I do want a break in between, and lots of restaurants in this area will bring out the entrees while you’re still eating appetizers which is a huge pet peeve of mine. Not at Gola - service was delightful

Sherry This is genuinely one of the most beautiful restaurants I’ve ever been to, and I just adore the communal dining space. They’re most known for their brunchy items, but we were here to try their more traditional dishes. The sauce in the garlic shrimp pasta was to die for, we had to use the cheese toast to mop it up. And the vongole pasta with clams was just perfection, it was SO fresh and delicious. And don’t even get me started on the pizza! I think there was a hint of honey in it? that made it so addicting. And where else can you get a blueberry matcha latte or orange creamsicle matcha with dinner? This spot is such a vibe and the food does not miss. Thanks for reading! ^-^

Smith Amy We came for the burgers as this used to be a great burger joint, got there and decided to give it a try, we were not dissapointed! I got the birria special and it was sooo good I cleared the very generously plated amount. My husband got the chicken sando and he liked his too. The iced tea was nice and strong, a detail overlooked by many, and the wait staff was friendly and attentive. We sat outside as it was a beautiful sunny day, it wasn’t overly packed but we were also there on a Sunday at 12:30pm. Hard to find places open on that day of the week. And it’s off the beaten path so no traffic whipping by. It was a lovely day, great food, great service. They’ve only been open since August 2025 so hop on over and give them a try!

Jeff Stark Early dinner on Thursday, and we were able to sit out on their patio. I had the enchiladas de mole. They were loaded with chicken and topped with a spicy mole sauce. I definitely recommend you get this dish. I also loved the tart with almonds, dates, and coconut sorbet. The margaritas were very tasty. Bonus - they have Happy Hour Monday through Friday from 3-7 p.m The staff was really friendly and multiple members checked on us throughout our visit.

Emily Rodriguez Adorable French cafe with delicious coffee, food and the best canele I’ve ever had! Friendly service, great music and a warm, welcoming feel. Loved the small, sweet details like edible hearts and tiny French flags.
