Good Food and Fabulous Dog-Friendly Location, 1/4/2010
Reviewer: Brat from Napa Valley, CA
If you want a good breakfast, bike/walk/roller blade your way to East Beach Grill. Juice is fresh. Coffee good. Servers friendly. Dogs are welcome. Watch out for the gulls and aggressive pigeons that are just waiting for you to step away from your table! Parking is easy, too! There is no better view in Santa Barbara. You are inches away from the beach and the beautiful Pacific Ocean.


Great location, Good Food, 11/30/2009
Reviewer: Ralph Luikart from Santa Barbara, CA
This location is most probably leased to the owner by the City and, given that these locations are a premium, I'm sure the lease is astronomical. No doubt that is reflected in the price of the food. Nevertheless, if you like dining right on the beach, there is no where else you can go that has a better view or better environment. The owner is a truly amicable fellow, the portions are generouse and wholesome. I eate there whenever I get the chance.


Great for fish and chips, 10/18/2009
Reviewer: Susanna from Santa Barbara, CA
I like to come here mid-afternoon and get the fish and chips or chicken quesadilla. (I've tried the burgers and I'd agree they aren't the best, but there are plenty of other things on the menu.) The staff is friendly (though I didn't rate service, since there's no table service in the afternoon). The price is less than the other local eateries that are right on the water as this place is, though naturally it's not cheap on a citywide basis. What I really enjoy though is the atmosphere. It's an unbuttoned, barefoot kind of place, and I love sitting under the blue and white striped umbrellas and watching the beachgoers and volleyball players in the summer, and the ocean and the islands in the winter. It's a great mood-booster.


Best breakfast location in the area, maybe California!, 9/7/2009
Reviewer: Bruce B from Oak Park, CA.
Get here on a weekend morning, maybe 9am.. have breakfast, coffee and enjoy the cool air as the beach warms up. Your reward will be good food and parking at this early hour.


Best Location for Breakfast on the Coast, 7/6/2009
Reviewer: Don Hodgdon from Santa Barbara, CA
Shhhhh, don't tell anyone, but this hidden gem serves one of the best breakfasts in Santa Barbara. The menu is limited but excellent, the coffee is good (Peets) and the service always comes with a smile. Just don't leave your plate unattended or the gulls will make off with your breakfast!


Banana Pancakes Rock, 6/28/2009
Reviewer: Brian from Aliso Viejo/CA
While visiting SB our friends that live locally took us here. The banana pancakes rocked. If it wasn't for the seagulls that pooped on my buddy twice it would have been a perfect breakfast.


Fabulous!
Reviewer: Vanessa from Santa Barbara
This place is the best breakfast spot. The view, of course, is the best part; however the food and service follow. The place is a beach café with a walk up counter and the servers know what they are doing. My roommates and I ride our bikes here every Sunday morning and we split the wheat germ pancakes and the Santa Barbara omelet. They are both delicious; however the pancakes are to die for.
