Hole In the Wall Great Sandwiches - (Near Arcata, CA)

Celeste Hagee My mom and I went here our first night in town when I moved and we were blown away! We loved everything; the huge water glasses, amazing food, and community-style service. I am excited to try more dishes!

Ahmad Alfilimbany Had dinner at Finney’s in Santa Barbara and it was an awesome experience! The food was amazing and the vibes were great — with games playing on screens all around and nice background music. The staff were super energetic and attentive throughout. We started with wings, tenders, and the fried cauliflower — all delicious and perfectly crispy. For mains, we had the Finney’s burger, Margherita pizza, and mac & cheese for the kids. Everything was flavorful and well-prepared.

Rick Sam Excellent dining experience at The Empress. The food is flavorful, well-balanced, and clearly made with quality ingredients—nothing overly greasy or heavy. Dishes come out hot, fresh, and beautifully presented. Service is attentive and efficient without being intrusive, and the overall atmosphere is comfortable and welcoming. If you’re looking for a reliable Chinese restaurant that delivers on both taste and service, The Empress is a solid choice. Would happily return.

Madi Q Delicious food and great beer selection. Sat out on the covered outdoor patio and it was perfect! We came during live music and it was a really chill vibe. Added plus the team here is super nice! The owner even came over to introduce himself which was really cool. Side note, theres also a good amount of parking which is great for SLO.

Ivan A Young I visited during happy hour and had fresh oysters and a flight of wine. Great open space, tasty food, well curated wines and best of all fantastic service. Highly recommended

Berenice Arguello It’s a welcoming restaurant. Cozy on a rainy day, and also bright/lively. We ordered tea. Perfect. I appreciate that it came with sugar on the side. Amazing start to the meal. The appetizers (samosas) were flaky. So light and freshly made. 15-20 min later our entrees came at the same time. Warm, but not piping hot. Perfectly timed. The owner, Sofi, is attentive and sweet
