(From a Twenty-Year-Old's perspective in alphabetical order)
Beachside Cafe
Locations don't get much better than this! Great fresh fish, steaks and salads served up in good sized portions. You can feel as comfortable here in a pair of thongs and T-shirt or in a three-piece suit. They don't advertise, so the customer base is 80-90 local, and very dedicated to returning again and again. This place made both of our favorite lists! In Goleta Beach Park just off Sandspit Road. (805) 964-7881
Chicken Ranch
This may be the best place to get Mesquite broiled Chicken and Tri-tip on the whole South Coast, always served fresh and hot. Also known for their great burritos, rice, beans and salsa. Some indoor and outdoor seating, but mostly a take out place. Where else can you get a great picnic family meal for 4 @ $17.00? 2618 De La Vina Street, Santa Barbara (805) 569-1872 & 163 N. Fairview Avenue, Goleta (805) 692-9200
California Pizza Kitchen
A wide variety of Italian menu items make this a favorite for lunch or dinner. Some outdoor seating, but mostly indoor booths and tables with friendly service and good food. 3979 State Street, Santa Barbara. (805) 683-1411
Pascucci
Located in Downtown Santa Barbara, this place is always packed, so you might have to wait to get in; but it is worth the wait. This is hands down Tenaya's favorite restaurant in the Santa Barbara area. The food is wonderfully prepared and very flavorful. 729 State Street, Santa Barbara. (805) 963-8123
Rusty's Pizza
There are many Rusty's Pizza Parlors in town, but 98% of the time we order by phone and have the pizza delivered to the house. Your basic pizza, delivered fresh and hot to your door. Just call (805) 564-1111 to order or for the location of the Rusty's nearest to you.
Valentino's Pizza
A local take and bake pizza place where you order your custom pizza to take it home and bake it yourself. They also have a few great salads and sandwiches on the menu, with about 4 tables. 4421 Hollister Avenue (near corner of Modoc Road), Santa Barbara. (805) 967-7338
