Reviews for Red Pepper Chinese Restaurant in Goleta, CA
Wonton soup was super good!! We also got the crispy salt and pepper fish, it was cooked amazing! Would go here again and again!
This is the first time since the pandemic that we have been back. It is out of the Main Street area of Goleta; however, it is a... hidden gem. It looks like they renovated the restaurant. Our favorite is the onion pancake appetizer, and it is light & crispywith a dipping sauce. We enjoyed our dinner (shrimp chow fun and mooshoo pork). The servings were large and we had enough leftovers for lunch. Our server was very attentive and nice. Read more
Visiting from Vegas, wanted to find local Chinese food instead of the usual popular chain. The flavor reminded me of the mom and... pops Chinese takeout back in NYC. I'm glad I went to this place. Highly recommended. (The chef's from NY) Read more
Really impressed by this place. We ordered the spicy basil beef and xiao long bao and it was plenty of food for two people. The... food was amazing, so flavorful and the ingredients were fresh and cooked perfectly. The service was also great. Highly recommend— don’t be fooled by the paper plates and small interior, it’s a superb find in Goleta with authentic and affordable foodand an extensive menu. Read more
Went there recently and I was really surprised. The ingredients were very well balanced, I’ve noticed an issue with many Asian... restaurants in Santa Barbara is that they tend to overpower the food with one ingredient or flavor. This place is easily myfavorite Chinese restaurant in Santa Barbara. Read more
I heard that the restaurant had changed because of new owners but the food still looks the same as older reviews so maybe they... went back to old recipes. The sweet and sour chicken isn't the most flavorful(would say it lacks any flavor tbh) the onionpancakes are pretty good and flaky Read more
