Holdren's is currently advertising their brunch $20.00; bottomless mimosas & bloody mary's.

Oh, and it's NOT the weekend to do it but the SmokeHouse in Burbank has a great brunch and early-bird specal pricing. We usually go to the zoo after (5 minutes away) and walk it off.

El Torito (Cabrillo Blvd ) for Mexican

Holdren's State Street (for American)

I second that El Torito has a champagne brunch, as does El Paseo.

Root 246 if you're inclined to drive to Solvang, or if you are in that area. Really fantastic brunch with champagne there (or bloody marys, but they cost a bit more).

El Torito is a great festive yummy brunch with a childrens reduced price...it has terrific mexican dishes, as well as the more "American" omelet bar, waffles,, bacon, sausage, etc. Go early though......

The Harbor Restaurant on the wharf has an excellent brunch! I love it. Shellfish, salmon, omlettes to order, carving station -- yes, costly (about $35 a person) but so worth it!

Jeannine's is great for brunch too.

El Paseo...enough said.

Jeannine's, any location, but I prefer the original, Montecito and the newer downtown one in that order.

It really depends on what you want. If you want high quality food, someplace like Jeannine's or SYRanch will be great for you. Like El Torito/Paseo, there are lots of places in SB that technically DO have a champagne brunch. But be warned, they are not for those with taste buds.

Try the Doubletree Hotel - less expensive than the Biltmore - Fish House is also advertising their brunch.

Haven't been for a long time, but the Frog Bar at Glen Annie Golf Course was great!

Yep, Root 246 - and you'll likely have sunshine too.

The somewhat-new Stella Mare Cafe on McCaw right off Las Positas across from the city golf course is delightful for brunch!

The El Paseo has a wonderful buffet with champagne! Also the Harbor Restaurant has a great brunch menu (with lemon ricotta pancakes) and the best ocean view in Santa Barbara!
