This restaurant is a bit out of the way but locals know all about it. I love their Calamari, which is cut in long strips vs. rubbery rings, I usually have the Calamari appetizer to share, and then have the seared ahi tuna from the appetizer menu as well, which together makes for a filling meal. The ahi tuna entree... More

Heard about this place from a local. It is ON the beach, and from what we have heard very busy on the weekends. Fun spot, good service and food. Lots of umbrella drinks too.

I guess you could say we "save" the Beachside Cafe for our last supper! Because it is located 2 minutes from the SBA/Goleta airport, it is super convenient. Located right on the beach, with a great pier, this is another restaurant you must go to! We love, and we've been going there for over 20 years. Consistently good, and highly... More

Whether dining with my wife or with clients, I eat at the Beachside about once a week and it's always a pleasant experience. The restaurant is right on the beach with a great outdoor patio and gorgeous views of the ocean. It's also a great place to unwind with a glass of wine or a cocktail after a long day.... More

The seafood is always done well and I'd recommend the chowder in a bread bowl....its easily recommendable during the cooler months. There's the main dining area and a sports bar tucked away to one side, with a third dining spot in an outside setting that I... More

We found this restaurant while cycling in the Santa Barbara area last year. A great spot to take a break from the bike. This year, we decided to stop for a more leisurely lunch while driving through and are very glad we did! It was a beautiful day to sit on the outdoor patio and enjoy the view with a... More

The location sets the tone and makes this a great place for a lunch meeting. All the food is good and it's fun to eat here.

The name says it all. The atmosphere is beautiful and the food matches that. We will definatly come here again.

This is the second time I visited this great little place right on the beach (first time was 2004ish? when I was in SB for business). this is a busy little place with indoor and outdoor seating. Having just arrived from frosty ChiTown, the 20 minute wait for a table gave us the opportunity to "say hello" to the Pacific,... More
