    When you are in the neighborhood, this is a great place to get some Mexican food. They have all the basics and some creative specials. Even the few vegetarian options are pretty good.

    The decor (or undecor) is plain.

    SALSA is good. Wish they gave you more chips.

    This is an authentic Mexican taco/burrito place.  No frills!  Just a lot of tasty food for a little money.  Wish we had one in Portland.

    This is probably the best taco joint from SLO to Baja Mexico, I should know I at least eaten my weight in tacos. The tortillas are all fresh made along with the salsa which is amazing too. They always take care of every request I have. The will roast jalapeños on the flat top too and add them to your meal if you need an extra kick. The lengua and buché are my favorite tacos and they don't skimp on meat, but you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Burritos are not on the menu but they will make them if you ask.

    This particular El Sitio has been a favorite of mine for years and years - I would bike over from my house, before I was old enough to drive, just to order one of their amazing Tortas along with a tall glass of horchata. The staff has stayed consistent over the years, and I always know I will receive a great meal each time I come in. You can certainly tell that they put love into the dishes they serve.

    The decor is definitely no-frills, but it's always clean and tidy, and I love their large outdoor patio.

    I'm happy to see that there are now numerous locations within the tri-county area. However, this location will always hold a special place in my heart, and I will continue to patronize it as long as it's around.

    We called in our order on the way to pick up a family member at the airport got it to go. We got three tacos and two tortas. All of our food was hot upon pick up fresh and very tasty they do have a salsa bar to add on additional flavors to your food. It is kind of hidden behind the 7-Eleven so make sure you look in the back to find the location. This restaurant also has several other locations located throughout Goleta and Santa Barbara.
