About Us
Bistro Amasa is a neighborhood bistro where old-world technique meets bold California creativity. Housed in the historic Upham Hotel, it’s a place for unhurried meals and long conversations. Classic dishes are reimagined with contemporary flair, paired with thoughtful wines, clever cocktails, and a setting that blends Victorian charm with modern warmth.


Our Team
Julian Martinez and Jesse Gaddy are the partners behind Barbareño, a Michelin-recognized Santa Barbara restaurant. Together, they bring the same balance of creativity, craft, and hospitality to Bistro Amasa, creating a space that feels both refined and relaxed, where great food and genuine connection come naturally.
