Chad’s owner, Chad Stevens, hails from the restaurant-owning family that gave us Sambo’s, which may not be a chain anymore, but still draws lines of customers every morning of the week. Chad’s seems to be more one of a kind, though. In a comfy-cozy Victorian on Chapala Street, the place may seem to exude traditional wine-and-dine pleasures, including a gourmet take on American cuisine, but the atmosphere is pure young people’s scene. With great drinks, a congenial staff, and the allure of an automatic party, Chad’s is Santa Barbara in its most casual best: gourmet comfort food.
