The Nugget Grill - Goleta

We live a block away and sit on the bat to have a martini while we wait for our order to go. Eating is fine. Last night I had to ask the hostess if the bartender served the wide end of the bar. Jeff randomly spoke to another guest. no eye contact or engagement with other customers save the payment of their neighbor. It was literally 10 minutes before he even recognized us, then took our order and made three table drinks before he made ours. I wanted to inform management privately, but there is no contact on their website. We'll be back, but if Jeff works, we'll go somewhere else.

The Nugget is a solid local joint. It's not fancy. Enter and there is a bar to your left and table to the right. Plus a healthy-sized patio out back that is a touch close to the freeway, but not bad. Our server today was a super helpful and friendly. He earned the 4th star in this review. He did a great job. As for food there are lots of burgers and sandwiches. I've tried a burger and a french dip, both solid if unspectacular. Eating out is getting expensive and the Nug isn't that cheap anymore. All in, I'll return.

One of the best ribbs I have ever eaten. Our waiter was very nice.

Decided to come here based on reviews for dinner. And we were not disappointed. We had the regular burger and the Santa Fe chicken salad. It was made very well. It truly hit the spot. I do recommend and I would come back.

Outstanding dinner, very nice attentive waitress, full bar and very clean restaurant. Really enjoyed dinner. I had Kent?s special, a hamburger steak patty with mushrooms and onions on top, mashed potatoes with vegetables, it was very good, friend ordered lamb chops and he said they were tasty, very happy with dinner.
