About bouchon Santa Barbara
Bouchon defines its cuisine in terms of Santa Barbara Wine Country, combining French culinary technique with produce from the Central Coast of California. Seasonal menu means that fish, vegetables, game, and composed dishes may be subject to change with produce changes.
Wine selection is not something secondary for bouchon. The wine list is designed to work with the cuisine, and it is especially important for those people who want to taste wines of Santa Barbara County along with their dinner rather than just to order some red or white wine.
The Victoria Street location is cosy and fits for a slow dining experience, which makes Bouchon the perfect place for anniversaries, romantic dinners, and visitors interested in French-Californian cuisine in downtown Santa Barbara.
Some dishes are available on a market basis, mostly seafood. It is recommended to review the menu before going there since it may vary depending on the season and the prices too.
