Opal Restaurant and Bar - Small Business Partner Spotlight
I absolutely love Opal Restaurant and Bar (http://www.opalrestaurantandbar.com/). It is one of the best and most consistent restaurants in all of Santa Barbara. The food and the service are always impeccable. Julie and I eat here several times a year and it is always a wonderful dining experience. In fact, this is the place where we first met. And it is the restaurant where we decided to eat dinner on the night of our wedding. They have a wonderful and modestly priced wine list and their daily specials are numerous and delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant for any occasion. And please tell the owners, Tina and Richard that we said Hi!
If you want to taste food from the best restaurant in Santa Barbara, Opal is definitely the place!
