“best mexican buffet i been to.“

“Been in Goleta for a long time. Great place for breakfast. Servers are fun and friendly.“

“This is the absolute best place for Mexican food in Goleta. I have been coming here my entire life. The food is simple and delicious. It’s family owned and operated and they’re so so kind. If you want a good quick meal at a great price with excellent people, come to De Valle.

Vegetarian options: You can ask for anything without meat, very flexible.“

“Okay this place is amazing! The staff is always so wonderful too! Truly the closest thing to authentic homemade Mexican food. I understand that with any restaurant cross contamination is a thing but unfortunately here I occasionally end up with meat in my food, despite ordering veggie options. I just remove it and keep eating though so it's not an issue but I'm putting a 5/5 either way because it's so worth it. Other than that we eat here pretty often and I wish the company all the success in the world because they are so wonderful. Don't forget to order your horchata because it just ties the meal together.“

“I had a presentation in town and ordered lunch for the group, El Sitio came highly recommended. The food was a huge hit! They created a delicious build-your-own taco platter that everyone enjoyed. They were very patient with me while ordering, as I'm not the strongest Spanish speaker. In the end I got exactly what I wanted. Thank you!“

“what a gem! we’ve been to their food trucks at a variety of Santa barbara events but this was our first time going to their location at Santa barbara cider house and it did not disappoint. Food is fresh tasting and full of unique flavors. environment is laid back and fun for families. eventually music started playing too! didn’t know they had this location and am so glad. their entire menu is delicious! we will be back many more times!“

“Delicious Food! Excellent service, very friendly and delicious hand made tortillas“

“This Taco Bell location is one of the better ones I’ve visited. The restaurant is quite clean and well-maintained, which is always a plus for a fast food spot. Parking was easy and convenient, with plenty of space available even during busy hours.

I ordered the new Cantina Chicken Burrito meal and was pleasantly surprised — the burrito was flavorful, the ingredients were fresh, and it was served hot. Definitely one of the better options on the menu right now.

Overall, great experience — quick service, clean environment, and tasty food. I’ll be back!“

“Service was excellent and food camouflage fast. Staff was friendly and willing to deal with questions related to food allergies. Place is accessible with lots of seating, however it is very popular with a steady stream of customers. Bathrooms where well kept and clean. Plenty of parking when I was there at 7pm Thursday.“

“The best Taco Bell in town, and the original if I'm not mistaken.. (that still stands) I can't explain it, but the food is just better here... Milpas location is runner up... Because they have the best customer service there, and close to home. 👌🏼👏🏼💯
P. S. Were you aware that the Taco Bell on the Mesa in Santa Barbara actually charges more!? Likely an additional tax added for an, (almost) ocean view?? Is this common? 🤔🤔“
