Taqueria La Unica offers well-prepared food and delicious tacos in a kid-friendly and wheelchair-accessible environment. The tacos are praised as the real deal, packed with juicy, well-seasoned meat and served on soft, fresh tortillas. The lengua and cachete tacos are enjoyed, along with standouts like al pastor and carne asada. The salsas are phenomenal, providing a great range of heat and flavor for customization. The strawberry watermelon drink remains highly recommended.
The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly, with outdoor seating perfect for enjoying Santa Barbara’s beautiful weather. Service is fast, with assertive and kind staff who check in frequently to ensure customers have a great meal. Parking is easy with a free parking lot available on-site.
A personal touch from the staff can make visits unforgettable; for instance, during a recent celebration, the chef personally presented a complimentary “graduation” dessert, making guests feel welcomed and celebrated. While some found the pricing slightly high, the quality and consistency of the food make it worth it. Overall, it’s a great dining experience with delicious food and a welcoming atmosphere.
