Taquería La Única truly lives up to its name, unique and authentic! The flavors are rich and traditional, just like real Mexican street food. The tacos are fresh and full of flavor and the portions are generous. The staff is warm and welcoming, the chef, the cashier en the server, were so kind, they went above and beyond making the whole experience even better. If you’re craving genuine Mexican food that tastes homemade, this is the spot. Definitely a must-try!

I’m obsessed now. The food was amazing. Service was great. Everyone was super friendly, helpful. My table was cleared timed perfectly and refreshed my chips without having to ask. 10/10 definitely go. And if you like octopus… do yourself the favor and try the tacos as it was cooked to perfection….

The food came out super quick and the staff were very nice. We were given chips and salsa to snack on while we waited. They have menus in Spanish and English which is nice. Really good food and really good service

Excellent tacos and Mexican food that reminded me of the food I got on my recent trip to Mexico City! Priced well and delicious with large portions (we over ordered!) the Al Pastor is delicious, and the costra and gringa’s were huge. Highly recommend and will be coming back

Delicious discovery! The salsa bar is fresh and fantastic. I love that there are salsa options aren’t outrageously spicy like at some salsa bars, but still pack a punch. Service was fast and the food was flavorful and plated beautifully. The atmosphere is really pretty too: lots of healthy large plants growing outside, and a barstool area with a cozy fire. Music playing was not overly loud; just right.

Absolutely fabulous. Note that the food truck vibe belies upscale price and quality. The fish soup was rich, salty, and stuffed with beautiful seafood--some of the most tender octopus I have ever had. Alambres que me ves, just fantastic and massive portion. Such lovely and helpful staff who suggested options for all of my family members' preferences. Would that I lived in Santa Barbara. I'd be coming here every weekend!
