Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

First time at this restaurant & we definitely will be back. Wonderful dinner with wonderful friends! Our server was Tom whom we loved! He had the perfect personality for this job! Drinks & food were brought out in a timely matter. Thank you Tom! The...food was delicious! 3 had liver & onions & all said best they have ever eaten. One had the shrimp risotto that was superb. Very nice room with a lovely view outside. Very enjoyable evening!More

We have eaten at Anacapa many times over the last few years and it has always been one of our favorites because of the views from the outside patio. We went there last night to celebrate my wife’s birthday and we were very disappointed. The...food was OK but the service was terrible. We ordered extra wine that never came, we didn’t receive any bread at our table, the server never checked back to see if we needed more water, etc. and we had to take our bill into the bar to pay because the server never returned to get our credit card. It has always been one of our go to places to take guests, not so much any more.More

They have a new chef. Our food was not hot when it finally arrived. The sundae was half melted with a glob of chocolate at the bottom of the cup. The meat was good even if it wasn't hot. My vegetables were raw. My husband...ordered liver. He said it was way overdone He got food poisoning that night after we ate here. Last year the food and service was outstanding. This year not so much.More

Even when you call ahead of time, they state that a large number of tables are reserved for repeated guests, regardless of what time they plan to show up. The newest bartender is the worst yet, does not wait on people, I had to go...to the bar twice to get a beverage! The menu continues to have no variety and the food is bland! Perhaps they need a new manager?More

We had a return visit after two years away. They had limited seating due to staffing issues and we had reservations for our group of 8. They had told us that the service might be a bit slow due to staffing but the dinner moved...along well for our group. My wife had the grilled salmon and found it very good. I, and a couple of my friends, were there for the liver. Similar to an earlier review of mine, it was really good. Cooked perfectly with bacon, peppers and onions. We sat outside on a beautiful night. Nice experience,More

I had read one very recent bad review, but because my husband and I had made reservations here for later this month (for a family birthday celebration) we wanted to check it out for ourselves. We were very pleasantly surprised! The setting and view are...absolutely beautiful. The ambiance is outstanding. The service was excellent! (The waitstaff was extremely busy, yet very efficient and hard working. ) Our waitress was so personable and accommodating. The food was very good and the portions were generous. The manager Cherie even stopped by to ask my husband and me how everything was. She was very friendly and extremely helpful when I had a couple of special requests regarding our upcoming reservation for our family. She took the time to adjust our reservation to accommodate my requests, and stopped back to assure us that all was set. We look forward to coming back with our family in a couple of weeks.More

We heard from close friends- go for happy hour, without reservations, sit outside, great calamari. Hostess was "deer in headlights" when we said we didn't have reservations, told to get our own drinks at bar. Said we wanted to order appetizers and another "how do...we do this" look. Sat outside with our drinks at a designated "any table with no white tablecloths", after 10 minutes had to ask a bus person for wait staff. Wait staff brought menus and never came back after more than 20 minutes. Restaurant wasn't that busy, we finished our drinks and left.More

Played golf with friends at Corte Bella and went for dinner at Anacapa. It was crowded on a weekday evening and it was good that we had a reservation. We (four of us) were all there for liver and onions. Yes we know that most...people would run from the room if served this meal but we all like to have it a few times a year. Service was good but a bit slow initially. The dinner was very good. Properly cooked and served with great onions and gravy. Prices were reasonable also.More

Our first visit and it was great atmosphere plus a terrific waiter named Alex. I had the tasty pasta with shrimp, sausage and chicken. Another had ribs, another liver and onions (that’s a yuck for me.) it was a good value for the cost.

Took my family here for Thanksgiving buffet. the food was average our service was poor. we were neglected the entire time and then we get a surprise when we get our bill arrived! 20% gratuity was automatically added. The ad advertised tax and gratuity was...not to be included. spoke with personnel they advised they decided to add on 20% to everyone for the buffets from now on. shame on this restaurant. Ask if manager would call me and never heard from this person. Anacapa at Corta Bella I will not return to this restaurant. Very disappointed!!!! Waited 20 mins before server came to table. She had to be called back to refill coffee. Never came to ask if anyone wanted anything with dessert. Then had to ask twice for the bill!More
