What User doesn't like about Satellite:
The vegan menu items are interesting, inviting and creative. They are also beautifully plated with little edible flowers. Unfortunately, there is so much oil in the food it drowns it of its natural flavors. We had the focaccia, winter squashes, curried cauliflower couscous and seared broccolini. When my sweetie left, the first thing he said was “disappointing.” That sums up our experience. View all feedback. What User likes about Satellite:
(the title is a ref to this hip SF song by scott mckenzie) santa barbara is a country that is unique to itself. uncanny Californian but remarkable nothing like something to its northern or southern neighbours. satellit embodies this unique spirit with its vegan tacos, and this lovely quinoa and lens cup that is cut off with fresh zilantro. my friends have something to eat. we all drink. everything has flower leaves in there. unique!.

I can only base this review on their vegan mac-n-cheez but it was very, very good. It was creamy and delicious. I recommend it.
