“Ambiance and service is good. Loved the shrimp soup they served us. Shrimp diablas was spicy but good. Great and refreshing aguas frescas, they have a good portion too. Only critique I have is on the ceviche mixto. The flavor was just not there - maybe just a bad day. Overall good dining experience! I will be coming back on for their taco deals.“
“SB Food Connection is amazing. We work with them on a corporate level and our employees are always excited to have them. Joe and his employees are so courteous and friendly. Their truck is always clean and the ambiance is very welcoming. I ordered a burrito with asada and al pastor the other day and it was absolutely delicious. The homemade tortillas are incredible and the beans and cheese are mouthwatering as well. Thank you!“
“Pepe's is the best Mexican food in Goleta, hands down.My family has eaten Pepe's for over 49 years ...I can remember eating Pepe's when i was a small child. Now i take my daughter, and she loves it .It hasn't changed much over the years other than the addition of the outside patio, a new bar area, and a few remodels over the years .Same great food and same great service !!“
“Food was good. Got 2 tacos one of chorizo and one of pastor. We also got 2 tortas de milanesa, flavor and size of food was good. Wish they had a little bit more variety of salsa. We added beans to our tortas which for us always makes them better. The tacos had hand-made tortillas which we really liked. The place could use some music for a nicer atmosphere so it’s not so quiet. Besides that we would go there again.“
“We had a nice birthday celebration for a friend this afternoon at Domingo's. The employees and owner were so welcoming and gracious. The food was delicious too! Everyone was happy with the meals that they ordered. There's a patio and plenty of parking behind the restaurant which is quite nice , considering how hard it is to find a suitable parking space. It's a historic, Old Town Goleta building that originally housed the Post Office!“
“The food there was so good! I got their Aloo Palak, Basmati Rice & Garlic Naan. They have a really good looking breakfast menu so I'm going to have to try that soon. It's all very flavorful and hoping they become a main stay in IV. Can't wait to try different dishes from this place!“
“As someone who has to eat gluten free, I am so thankful for Elubias! The papusas are all great. We tried a wide variety and liked them all! The nachos were great also. The gluten free burrito was great! The tortilla was amazing for a gluten free option. My one complaint was that it was a lot of beans in comparison to everything else but I still enjoyed it.“
“The best. Period. For a healthy option, try the chicken salad. The Flying Burritos are so full of flavor, you're gonna want to slap your mama. The salsas at the salsa bar are on point. This place is at the top of my regular Goleta rotation!“
“These Birthday Churros totally take the cake! (Pun alert). Best churros in town, crunchy on the outside, perfection in the center- and they threw in strawberries and dulce de leche to boot! The establishment is in a convenient location with lots of parking. Store was clean, staff friendly and helpful. It was quite popular and busy, but extremely efficient. Says a lot about the food & reputation! I highly recommend it. Forget the Birthday Cake and head to Los Agaves for the best birthday churros in town!“
“This place is great. Everything tastes fresh, and has great flavor.We order take out from here often for breakfast, everything we have had has been delicious. The salsas do lack a little flavor sometimes but by and large their selection is great.“
“Why do I love Cal Taco?Ever noticed that when you buy a burger from a fast food restaurant, the marketing photos of their burgers look nothing like what they hand you to eat?Here is a picture of my Cal Taco burger. No enhancements, no special handling, just a fresh and delicious, "home-made" burger, with an amazing Char-Burger flavor.○ Friendly staff○ Clean restaurant○ Great food.You have to try this place. ?“
“I had the half chicken which was delicious ! The seasoning was just right, the skin was crispy and the meat was moist and flavorful. They've got a great selection of salsas to choose from as well. The beans and rice were ok but nothing exceptional. They do have beers as well which I didn't see on their website. They offer great food at reasonable prices, would definitely go back next time I'm in the area and would recommend to anyone looking for some great chicken“
“Bottom Line: A great little local bakeryEvery town needs to have a little local spot like this where people make and serve baked goods.They always have tons of different things in here for you to try - you just have to get down here to try them!I'm lucky enough to have this spot on the way to work, so I can drop in a pick up some goodies pretty much any time.Come check it out!“
“I absolutely love this place. The staff is always friendly and patient, the food is phenomenal, and the restaurant is very clean. Yes it's just tacos, but they are damn-good tacos. My favorites are the asada, adobada, and cachete. Pro-tip, get an asada taco and a cachete taco and then mix the two meats together. The fatty, tender cachete blends amazingly well with the perfectly cooked asada. The salsa bar isn't anything fancy, but it doesn't need to be. The line does get long sometimes but it's worth the wait. I make it a point to swing by here whenever I'm in the area.“
