Food here was really good. Service was a little slow and I was served cold fries. Didn't even touch them. When I told the waiter he didn't offer to bring new ones or even take them off the bill. They were happy hour but come on. Spent over $150 on other food and drinks its really just the principle.

All that being said, the food was great. Drinks amazing. I do like coming here for late night snacks.

This Eureka restaurant, located in the downtown Santa Barbara area, had very above average food. Not great, but very good. The service was a bit lackluster. It was not very busy at this location in the late afternoon early evening, but the staff was moderate at best. They definitely need a bit more training to go by tables after they've ordered and ensure that everything that the customer needs is present. That was not done so water remain unfilled and drinks remained unreplenished....

Normally when I’m told a drink has “a bit of a kick” I’m skeptical - I should have listened. The Watermelon lemonade is refreshing but there is a bit of chili kick to it.

The el pastor fish tacos look small on the plate/photo but they were filling and really just the right amount for lunch.
