Wonderful Restaurant, 3/9/2013
Reviewer: Dave & Diane Senit from Ventura, CA
It was our first time at Brummis so we gambled bringing four friends. It wasn't a gamble at all, it was a winner. All six of us ordered different things and were all pleasantly pleased. We are looking forward to returning very soon and our friends feel the same.


Worth a try, 8/24/2012

I had a lovely experience at Brummis this evening. My generous serving of braised pork shank was delicious (Only served on Fri and Sat). The owner and all of the servers were welcoming and attentive. They have a good selection of beer. Try the German chocolate cake! The owner bakes one every morning.


Sehr gut!, 8/10/2012
Reviewer: Jonathan from Santa Barbara, CA
After all these years, I finally made it to Brummis. I lived in Germany for several years, so I'm familiar with good and bad German food. Brummis was actually very good. I had the Sauerbraten with Spaetzle, and my friend had the Wienerschnitzel. The food was very filling so no room for dessert. The owners were very nice and good at suggesting dishes. I've never seen the place crowded, so hopefully they will be able to stay in business and keep serving good food. PS - be careful before ordering a large beer. It is a Mass (1 liter).

I Love This Place!, 5/24/2012
Reviewer: KDawg from Santa Barbara, CA
We tried Brummis for the first time last night and what a find! We ordered the Brummis Salad, Rinderrouladen, Jager Schnitzel, and their homemade german chocolate cake. Everything was fresh, delicious, flavorful. The owners were super friendly and everything they recommended was spot-on! Don't waste your time dining out at the tourist traps downtown and visit Brummis. Awesome!


Great German food and service
Reviewer: Ernest L. Bevilacqua from Santa Maria, CA 93455
A friend recommended Brummis. We made reservatiins a week in advance and on a cold, rain threatning Friday evening we showed at opening time to a very warm welcome. The menu had a great choice of German foods we know and our entrees were sourbratten and the beef rouladen both with knudel and spetzula with a delicious sauce. While waiting we tried a small sample of both the light and dark Keg beers which were very good. Two salads are available both of which are crispy, copious and colorful. Delicious, as were our dinners served by warm, friendly, hosts. A glass of merlot went very well with the food. Then came the apfel kucken, with fresh bluberries and strawberries and cream. What a way to finish dinner. Portions are most generous as is the service. Our hosts gladly packaged what we couldn't eat for take home. We also took home some very nice memories of Brummis. A small German restaurant with big service and great food. It's worth the drive from Santa Maria. We will be back soon.


YUMMY German Food
Reviewer: APK from Santa Barbara, CA
Brummi's is such a find! The bratwurst, sauerkraut and kartoffelsalat are all yummy and taste like they do in Germany. The owners are very charming and interested in making you happy. The apple pie was perfect. And good German beer on draft is always appreciated. Everything is also very well-priced. We will definitely go back!


AMAZING TRADITIONAL FAMILY HOSPITALITY AND FOOD
Reviewer: Wilson and Josie Lee from Los Angeles, CA
My wife and I enjoy finding those restaurant gems that reflect the style and flavor of the community. When reading the reviews for Brummis we where inspired by the family taking on the challenge of opening a business since 2008 and maintaining such success. We where pleased to come in on a quiet Tues night before Thanksgiving and enjoyed Veronica's heart and passion for her food. Her husband a quintesental quiet man make this pair a great team. I enjoyed the double bock beer. A full flavored hearty beer that I could have drank one after another if I didn't have to drive. Food portions were huge and full of flavor and should remind you of mom's home cooking. Take the leap, drop the pizza, leave that plain ole steak for some other time and experience German cuisine at its finest. We left the restuarant as if we had been long lost family of Veronica and will plan to continue to check in when in Santa Barbara next time.


Fun and delicious food
Reviewer: S. Kinghorn from Santa Barbara, CA
This was our first visit. The service was excellent. The owner treated us to free appetizers. She also suggested we have a combination of sides which was a wonderful treat. The wheat beer was excellent. The servings are very large. We took half of our food home so we would have "room" for dessert. We're very glad we did. The apple fritters with vanilla sauce were delicious. The owner is delightful, interesting, and friendly.


Brummis is Great
Reviewer: Spencer from Santa Barbara, CA
This is a family owned restaurant run the way they feel is best and just be ready to sing along to some top voted German pop song from 2007 because that is what you may find! Break out of the ordinary and into the... OK, so it can be odd, but stick to it! All servers have been nice and it beats the snot out of all the restaurants who have sold out and charge you 25 dollars for a lousy pizza. I dig the food and they seem to use good ingredients (never suffered a reaction). The reason for a 4/5 on the service is that, as mentioned, they can get a bit carried away with talking to people at other tables when you just need some more water or another beer.


Great German food served with charm and fun
Reviewer: Esther & Carl Belknap from Thousand Oaks, CA
My husband and I were on our way to a concert at the Santa Barbara Bowl. We stopped at Brummis after a drive from Thousand Oaks. We just loved this restaurant. The best German food we have eaten in years. The owner is fun and is a great hostess. Our waiter Jonathan was very nice. He knew we were going to a concert so he made sure that we got waited on right away. Can't say enough about the service. We liked how the owner Veronika and Jonathan explained about the beer and menu. Very Helpful. We are so happy we found this place. We will being friends next time. Oh, we just loved loved the apple fritters!!!!
