Reviews for Bettina in Santa Barbara, CA
????If thin crust pizza is your thing, this is the place. Nice chew to the crust, with crunchy edge. Toppings are great. We... did the seasonal peach - it was on point for flavors and a standout for something different. Meatballs are a custom meat blend,and the freshness and flavor confirm that. Great outdoor dining area. Can be very busy - reservations are a must. Read more
Best pizza I’ve had in CA. Great restaurant great bartender and excellent service. I felt like I was fine dining here but with... reasonable prices. My date loved it and was impressed as well. Bartender made me a mocktail that was insanely refreshing andpaired well with my za and honey dates. I will come back one day. Read more
Absolutely excellent from start to finish. Bettina really captures the vibe of modern reminiscent Santa Barbara. Waiting for the... food was a pleasure with this comfortable but classy esthetic. I ordered the meat lovers pizza with a pavlova dessert and aginger beer to drink. From one bite to the next, I was never disappointed. If your budget can allow a higher end pizza dinner,this is the place to be. Read more

After watching the Food Network's exposure to Santa Barbara before my trip to the city, I had to make a stop at Bettina before... heading back home. It was very enjoyable being at this establishment with the welcoming staff and amazing set up with bothoutdoor and indoor dining. I chose to eat indoors and the pleasant architecture and seating arrangements were good to me. Now toget to the the priorities, the food! I have to say after browsing the menu it was difficult to make a decision because the pizzaselection ALL sound great but once I had taken some time I landed on the Maitake Mushroom Pizza which both has a nice ring to itand tasted incredible. The pizza came out wonderfully as you can see from the photos but it was the culmination of the freshmozzarella, basil and red onions and maitake mushrooms paired with the incredible crust that did it for me. The crust cooked toperfection as well as the pizza and deserves it's own award. I loved the thinly sliced maitake mushrooms that made eating thepizza that much more rewarding. I would definitely recommend this to anyone visiting the Santa Barbara area! Read more
Absolutely fantastic experience at Bettina, they were able to accommodate us at a side table when we had to unexpectedly add a... party member. The drinks were all great, service was friendly and fast, and of course the pizza was fantastic. Meat lovers andspring pea with ‘nduja were the standouts! Read more

Convienently located right off 101, with lots of indoor and outdoor seating available, also on a Saturday at noon. Burrata &... persimmon: together with the focaccia it’s a really good combination of sweet, salty and cheesy. Prosciutto pizza: It was asolid pizza, but nothing special. The saltiness of the prosciutto was mainly overpowering the rest of the pizza. PizzaCarbonara: Really interesting combination, especially with the egg. If you like carbonara you should give this one a try. Theservice is great, they had a mixup with one of our pizzas and they brought us a new one within 5 minutes. Read more
