Kyle's Kitchen

Yummy!! I had a grilled chicken sandwich and it was delicious. Their buns are great and the staff was super friendly. Not to mention their string onion rings. I wish we had a Kyle’s where I live.

I thought this place was more of a restaurant than it actually is. It’s a cool spot, fast food but also casual enough to dine in. I ordered the spicy chicken avo sandwich, with the half and half side, and a cherry fizz. The sandwich was okay, but the chicken was extremely thin. Considering the amount of toppings that are on it. The fries were bomb, the onion strings were seasoned well but they were too thin. Cherry fizz was flat.

The food here was amazing! The salads are delicious, healthy and fresh and eating on the patio was relaxing. The staff brings your food out to your table for you which is nice when you're visiting with company. I shall return!!! Lol

Visiting from Indiana and my SB bro recommended this place. We had a group of 14. We easily put tables together outside and sat together. There's something for everyone on the menu! The sliders were our fave, especially Korean BBQ! Don't forget a tasty IPA or Lager to complete your meal. Highly recommend!

They are quick and the food is always delicious. I got the ice cream sandwich and sunday. They have six ice cream flavors to choose from. You can get a cone, ice cream sandwich, sunday, or a milkshake.

Love this place! Delicious burgers and salads at a great price. Happy hour every day from 3-6. Kids meals, certain burgers, AND CRAFT BEER only $4.50 each. The jalapeno ranch is seriously the best sauce for fries! The company also donates money to various charities/foundations. Can't beat it.

First time at Kyles Kitchen. Burgers and chicken sandwiches make this place a good to for a long day and good food. Family friendly atmosphere with clean restrooms and plenty of sitting area inside and out. Lots of parking. There is a tap room with local beers and they have ciders.

Great food. Nicest staff. Miss. Rice the server, she made my experience with my toddler great. Thank you. ♥️

I discovered Kyle's Kitchen while searching for a sandwich shop. After reading the story behind it, I was drawn to give it a try. I'm glad I did! Great place to relax and enjoy delicious food!!

We love it here and stop by every time we drive through Goleta. It’s a little pricey to eat at regularly. The kids menu is great!

Small but tasty burgers with many delicious salad options. You can get a pair with burger+salad or burger+fries. I recommend trying the salads and it has happy hour all day saturday and 3-5 PM on other days

I’ve been to this location and the other location on Calle Real and I’m always happy with the food and service. The menu offers a wide variety of burgers and other sandwiches, as well as salads. You select your burger and pair it with a side and a drink. Basically a combo meal. While not cheap at $16 plus tip, the food is well prepared and tasty, and the portions will fill you up. They also offer hand scooped ice creams and milkshakes. Overall a great casual spot for a quick meal.

Today was a great experience! Lunch was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend the pesto Sandwich, everything was fresh and full of flavor. Classic Kyle’s were also amazing. The service was very friendly and attentive. The staff made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed throughout our visit. This is a 100% family friendly place that I would definitely recommend. Great food, great service, and a wonderful overall experience. We would absolutely come back!

One of my favorite burgers, they could add an extra slice of bacon though, hence the 4 stars.

We always enjoy Kyle's, this was our first visit to this location. They cost more than a fast food joint, but the food quality and their service are way better. Imagine Chick-fil-a staff serving upscale food. This time I tried their buffalo chicken sandwich. It was very good, covered with onion straws and bleu cheese, but not as good as their spicy chicken sandwich. Then again, their spicy chicken is the best so I'm not surprised. Next time I'll have to try the Protein Bar, it looks delicious.

The food was ok, my firefighter burger came warm so I ate half of the burger cold and the meat was dry and not very tasty the corn and shrimp soup was ok but my wife's vegetarian burger was delicious,I had a bite then another then one more 😄 ahi tuna salad not so much. 3 stars for the food and extra one for a nice,clean place and good friendly service.

Great little spot to eat! This was our first time there, but it will not be our last. The burgers were tasty, and the fries were really good. I can't wait to come back and try their sliders. The service was friendly as well.

The only issue is price! The food is great and the business does so much good for the community. However, I've been coming to Kyle's for years, and the prices have crept up to the point that it isn't an affordable regular spot anymore. I recall the Pair It being around $11 a few years ago, so even with inflation the new price of $16.50 seems egregious. The food is still good (although I find staff are super hit or miss) and recommend Kyle's to friends, but it's harder to just stop in than it used to be.

Ordered the chicken tenders set meal - it was alright, felt like it was a little lukewarm and not fresh But love their initiative to support local communities in need

This was my granddaughter's choice for lunch. She got the cheeseburger kids meal and I got the Mountain Climber burger and the half and half. My (jalapeno) burger with extra sauce on the side was great. I was full at 1/2 but ate more because it was so good. The fries were excellent. I thought the onion strings were a little greasy but they were good. Some already come in the burger so I had plenty. We sat outside which was a little hard to navigate and there were few of us out there. The burger and fries sold me and I will return.

I truthfully love Kyle's Kitchen. I love their message, their food, and their stores. But I can't give them a five star rating anymore. When Kyle's Kitchen first started up, they were the new cool place, and they still are right now! But they are so big right now that they are now just... A good burger. Not excellent, but good. I feel like the actual flavor of the burger has deteriorated over time, but they still are an amazing place. If you visit Santa Barbara, try Kyle's Kitchen!

This was one of the few places open during our COVID vacation to Santa Barbara, but we are glad we landed here. The burgers and fries were made to order with fresh ingredients. The texture of the fries were not our favorite, but appreciate that they were handcut. I also really like the mission of the restaurant and the impactful work they are doing in the community in partnership with other non-profit organizations.

The food was subpar, the sliders were pretty dry. Except for the Korean chicken slider which was good. Overall I wouldn’t recommend it, just go to Finney’s

Had the Mountain Climber burger. Had plenty of heat. But the patty looked and tasted pretty basic. Like it was frozen hamburger patties. The service was very friendly. The decor is pretty simple. It’s set up like a nice fast food chain. It’s pretty cool that they have some interesting ice cream options. I did not try the ice cream but it was tempting. We will return.

Love the place, but ordering online asks for way too much information just to place an order.

The sliders were decent, both the Korean and fried chicken sliders were a little dry. The half fries and onion strings were really good. Overall the experience was pretty decent, just slightly disappointed about the sliders especially for the price.

Meh. Burger was OK. No discernable menu when you walk in. You have to walk to the counter to grab a menu. I asked the cashier how large the burger Patties were; he said this big (showing the thickness with his index finger & thumb) Asked him how many ounces, he said "I don't know", laughed & just stood there. I asked if he could go ask someone. Out of 7 people standing behind the counter, no one knew. One gal grabbed a menu, looked it over for a minute, and finally said if you get two Patties, it's 1/2lb......but didn't know how much each patty was. I had the Klassic Kyle burger, and it was decent. I tried the Half & Half fries & onion straws. Fries were actually pretty good. Onion straws are VERY thin & quite greasy. If I come back, I may try the Chicken sandwiches.

I really want to support Kyle 's because they're local and support many good causes, but they consistently mess up my order. It's so bad that it feels like a 50/50 toss up they'll get it right. It happened again tonight. I ordered online for pick-up. I was handed a big bag that was stapled at the top. When I got home only 3 out of 5 items were in the bag, despite the receipt which was stapled to the bag being correct. Does no one bother to double check they packed everything? I called and the employee on the phone told me there was nothing they could do. Not even reimburse me or give me credit. It wasn't worth going back in rush hour traffic. I probably won't go back again. What a waste.

To go order was next to ice cold, bigger issue is the severely undercooked burger...almost raw inside. Also the cold fries had no salt...and the ranch sauce is...not ranch, not even sure what it is but it tastes bad. Sucks to be so negative but this was terrible for almost $17.

Staff was friendly, presentation of food and restaurant were nice but the salad was very bad. The ingredients obviously weren't fresh. Also the music was uncomfortably loud. Later found out it gave me food poisoning.

I ordered a Krispy Chicken combo and Tianna refused to give me my full order which included Fries and a drink. I'll be telling my friends in Goleta to not eat here because of the rude workers.

Tianna refused to give me my full order (Krispy Chicken combo) after I had paid for the full amount. She should not take out her frustration on customers. As a local I'm never coming here again.

I ordered a caesar salad yesterday and guess what I found. I found a BIG SPIDER in it!! Never order food from here. I’m gonna complaint to the health department.

If you want to wait for over an hour this place is for you for a simple combo meal. Terrible service. Get some people in the kitchen that can move quicker.

TERRIBLE!! I don’t usually write negative reviews, but our experience at Kyle’s Kitchen was frustrating enough that it deserves to be shared. We waited over an hour for our food, which is completely unacceptable—especially for a casual dining spot. What made the situation worse was the complete lack of communication from the front-of-house staff. At no point were we informed about the wait time or given any kind of update. If we had known the delay would be that long, we absolutely would’ve chosen to eat elsewhere instead of wasting our time. We weren’t the only ones dealing with this either—at least 10 other customers were visibly waiting around for their orders. Despite the clear issue, no apology was ever offered. It felt like the staff didn’t care, or just chose not to acknowledge the problem. Overall, the poor service and lack of basic customer communication made for a really disappointing visit. It’s not just about the delay—it’s about how they handled it, and they didn’t handle it well.

Placed an order for an office team lunch with a delivery time of 12:10. Had to call in multiple times after food was over 30 mins late. They cannot help and do not have tracking in their drivers - which they apparently outsource to DoorDash even though DoorDash wasn’t used. Food arrived over 40 minutes late and dead cold AND missing items (because of course). Will never order or go into Kyle’s again - unreliable delivery and too busy to take calls from customers.

I’ve came here before, and have asked for the same combo every time, which is a krispy chicken with fries and a drink the total comes out to .. 10$ and this time around a girl named Tianna was first of all rude and wasn’t paying attention to our order. Proceeded to giving us a number for a table that we didn’t ask for? Very unprofessional it’s a shame because the food is very good.

I work late I come here all the time for years asked for a salad to go and read refused service. My last order you forgot to add the child’s burger left it with just cheese. I ordered a shrimp ceasers salad forgot the shrimp. 34 dollars later. I don’t like leaving these reviews but this is ridiculous. We are here to support our community and this isn’t it.

Been going here for years and both the food quality and service have gotten progressively worse. Patties are much smaller and completely dried out. Do not recommend ordering takeout from here because they have gotten my order wrong the last 3x. Lots of attitude behind the counter also.

Kyle's must be going through some hardships, what was once a reliable casual burger joint is now a shell of its former self. My burger was super dry, plain tasting and stiff. The Cesar salad is okay, Cesar dressing was a little strong. The prices do not warrant the product unfortunately and I am sad to see this place in this state.
