“Just happened on this place by doing map search for restaurants while in Watsonville. It was magical! Beautiful buildings & gardens. We are on the heated patio & just loved it. Excellent food: ribeye, & steak & lobster. Delish wedge salad too. Took the dessert home & enjoyed that too; the accompanying ice cream was the best. Very lovely experience.“

“what an iconic place - thank you Phoebe for all your recommendations!“

“Cool Kava bar, friendly staff and patrons. Nice to find a cool place like this when visiting in town!“

“This was my bar. I will never go back. Last Saturday I was attacked by a group of young women on the dance floor and while they were recording the incident I was the one removed. While being removed by the bouncer I was grabbed in the groin by a male patron. The bouncer removing me still did nothing. I no longer feel safe there.“

“Cool Place to have a drink with your friends and listen to live music🎶“

“We went in for a daytime drink while in town. Yes, it's a locals dive bar and clearly lots of regulars, but we were warmly welcomed by them all and were chatting away after a few drinks. As with most places, you don't have to be a regular to fit in, you just have to be a nice person. We will come by next time we're in SC!“

“I didn't get any food, so I'm not rating that. I actually went on a Sunday night because my phone said they have table tennis tables there. I was told they do, but only on weekdays, and I haven't been back there since. I wanted to rate it high because staff was friendly towards me and answered my questions in cheerful and thorough manner. I really liked the vibe of the place and intend on going back soon.“

“Food is really good and waiter was friendly“

“locals spot everyone friendly ❤“

“Pleasantly surprised... The menu is full of all the generic American food you can expect just about anywhere but it is a much superior version of that food. Everything came with a piece of cake that wasn't so great, and coleslaw that also wasn't so great. It was so much food I didn't really want to eat them anyway. The staff were very friendly, it was a very comfortable and homey environment.“

“Came here on a Friday with some friends and had an amazing time! It was super busy so we had to wait a bit to order because one of the ladies was talking to someone at the end of the bar and kept walking off without helping anyone, but the lady with the pink hair was busting butt helping everyone and letting us know she'd seen us and would be over to help. The music was great, the food was yummy, and I will definitely be back with more friends!“

“Such a neat place! We really enjoyed this spot. Service and drinks! Their house drink menu is very unique and fun! Definitely recommend if you're visiting Santa Cruz! The entrance is around the back of motiv off pearl alley but if it's after 9:30p you'll need to go to motiv first to get stamped anyways.“

“On vacation from FL. We was craving Mexican food, our hotel suggested this place, and what a great place to eat! The food was authentic and it was a treat! Our server we met was Lilly was so nice it made the food that much better! Can't wait to go again before we leave the area. Keep up the great food and customer service!“

“Great place for mid week date night or to see live music. a Santa Cruz must“

“Visiting SC from Michigan and came across Suda. Glad we did. Looked like it had a good vibe from the outside so we went in and sat at the bar where we had drinks. What fun! The bartender, Max, was slammed but never stopped smiling. We had fun watching him and talking with him. He knows his drinks! So much fun we came back for dinner another night. Max came over to our table to welcome us back! The drinks and food were really good! We’ll definitely be back next visit to SC. Hopefully, Max, will be there too!“

“Great cocktails and appetizers“

“Good food, awesome bartenders and people! Love this place ❤️“

“Kitchen staff leaves PROMPTLY at 10pm so dont expect any food or dessert after 10. Additionally, the internet states the establishment closes at 11pm. Although the staff (they told us) has been told repeatedly that the closing time is incorrect, no one has bothered to correct it. Wait staff is lackadaisical. They did not communicate last call on cocktails or offer dessert prior to kitchen close.“

“I never write reviews for places but this chilis deserves one. I don’t come here too often but when i do come here my experience is a 10/10. Our waiter who has served us the last few times- his name is Sam, is truly an angel on earth. He is so kind, patient, and his customer service is among the best i’ve seen in any restaurant. He was so kind to my partner and I and he helped us so much by answering any questions we had and having just a super helpful and caring attitude. In regards to the food, also 10/10. The cooks deserve some serious appreciation because for the first time in a long time I was trying to eat past full because it was so good haha. The atmosphere here is also super nice, the music isn’t too loud and there’s lots of open natural light. Thank you for a wonderful meal and experience!“

“Love their outdoor seating for a glass of wine and a sunset“

“Dope people dope vibe and dope city“
