Root Burger - Santa Barbara

Burgers are marginal. Wedge salad is pretty good, and could be the only reasonable price item on the menu. This menu feels hard and unimaginable.

Since the reopening of the campus they have recovered as the only root, and have their menu to focus exclusively on burgers, chicken sandwiches and salads. I haven't tried the last two things, but the quality of their burgers has risen. I had the mushroom Swiss burgers and it was cooked, still juicy, with a generous amount of pepper spiced the patty. Their onion rings are also well above average, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. This can now be the best Burgerplatz in the campus/IV area.

Update: I got horrible food poisoning here from a breakfast burrito with strangely sour salsa and undercooked potatoes in it. I had to miss an entire class cause it messed up my stomach so bad. Not worth the money at all, wish I?d never eaten at this place. French fries looked good but were undercooked and bland. Buffalo blue cheese chicken sandwich was okay, the buffalo sauce had too much vinegar, it was more sour than spicy. I?ll probably try something else and see maybe they were just having a bad day.

One of my favorite lunch spots on campus. I personally recommend the popcorn chicken wrap. Be aware, it's pretty spicy. The fries are also pretty delicious.
