Wahoos food is one of dakine!!! Good on the pocket too!!, 9/9/2009
Reviewer: Jimmy J

I am Jimmy J, and I have enjoyed eating at Wahoos over the past couple of years. I have had many dining experiences there, and I gotta say that the owners Nate and Jeff, who are almost always there, really take pride in delivering a meal to your liking in a very timely fashion. Over and over again, they impress me with their professionalism with the customers;they bring the aloha. The surfing vibe and ambiance almost make ya long for the ocean as you bite into the tastiness that came from it. The Banzai Bowl is my favorite and comes with a bunch of veggies!!! YUM!!!I reccomend sitting at the table adjacent to the window. It is different from the rest as you shall see....and ask them for a cool sticker...They love giving them away!!!!

Pure awesomeness
Reviewer: Silvia

I'm proud to say I eat at wahoos a good 5 days a week, fast, fresh, tasty, and great prices. Fish and shrimp tacos are the best full of flavor and the fish is grilled which is healthy! The staff members there are very friendly and provide good service! Wahoo's for the win!

try the brown rice option
Reviewer: chris

Wahoo's has added brown rice (as well as tofu). Cooked perfectly, the rice is a great complement to their well-prepared black beans. Given their generous portions, that combo alone is almost a meal in itself. Service, as ever, is first rate and friendly, and more attentive than in many more upmarket eateries in town.

From the tacos to the salads to the banzai burrito(my new favorite) wahoos is always the best. Enjoy it every time, never a disappointment!

Chicken Bowl
Reviewer: Todd
from Santa Barbara, CA
Food & service are good but I think it is very odd that they serve their "Chicken Bowl" on a plate.

Friendly and Laid Back

1st time I had Wahoo's was in Boulder CO and was excited to hear that one had open in my hometown Santa Barbara. Very friendly staff (I like that they say goodbye when you leave)! Generous portions. My favorite thing about it is the atmosphere. Not the most amazing Mexican food in SB (I think it wouldn't hurt to add more kick to the rice) but a good fall-back place to go when you can't decide.

EVEN OLD LADIES CAN LOVE THIS PLACE!!!
Reviewer: Lucy

We stumbled into Wahoo's a couple of months ago after wandering around the Santa Barbara Farmer's Market one evening. We have been back at least once a week ever since--and have brought friends whenever possible. WE LOVE THIS PLACE!! We are medicare mavens and always order the kids plate with an enchilada--usually the shredded pork one or the shrimp one--along with rice and black beans. The whole deal is less than $4 per person. What a bargain!! And, we LOVE THE GREEN SAUCE!! It has lots of cilantro in it, is a little spicy and absolutely delicious on the enchilada. The counter and service helpers are polite and friendly. There is an occasional visitor from the lower State Street permanent collection which can be a bit off putting, depending on behavior. But, all in all, Wahoo's is a real treat for us and we visit for lunch or dinner whenever we can. Highly recommended!!

the best and cheapest shrimp tacos
Reviewer: Nancy
from Santa Barbara, CA
The shrimp and fish tacos are consistantly excellent, delicious, fresh, and affordable, (as are there wonderful onion rings), the beer of the month price ($1.52!) cannot be beat (and we've tried some interesting beers as a result), the service is ALWAYS pleasant, helpful, fast ---and they make you feel like they really give a damn that you just spent $6 in their establishment - something many other SB restaurants should take a lesson from... The restaurant is clean and a nice State St location for people watching. Hope this place will raise the standards of other restaurants. It is the only place we go weekly - often more. My only suggestion: Wish they would add some flavor to the bland white rice - or at least serve more healthy brown rice.
