B e s t BURRITO I ever had!
Reviewer: Courtney from Santa Barbara, CA
When I first walked in Lito's menu it seemed a little over priced for some Mexican food. I am from San Diego and down there the shops are more cheaper but anyways back to my story. I ordered a Carne Asada Burrito the basic. Once I got the order to my table I split the Burrito in half took a bite and WOW! I was something else, like an explosion an my mouth. Everything is fresh made. It reminded me of homemade cooking. The salsa was very fresh and had perfect crisp chips to go along with it. Take my advice go inside and get something out of there you wont be disappointed! Best Mexican take out in S/b!


This is the spot!!!!!!!!!!!!
Reviewer: Lozell Henderson from Santa Barbara, CA
If you like good, No great mexican food you have to try Lito's. Simply the best! Tacos, Burritos, Combination plates. The best Mexican food in Santa Barbara hands down.

Rice and Bean Burrito: the best
Reviewer: Bruce Hammerstrom from San Diego, CA
My first rice and bean burrito was grabbed for lunch on the way to Santa Barbara Mill and Lumber in 1986. What flavor! So for the next 15 years or so I was a frequent visitor eating at least once a week. Ernie was always joking around and keeping things moving. The burrito is my all time favorite. I went for chile verde, rice and beans for about 8 years and then switched to just rice and beans since I just love the flavor. Mix the green and red salsa to get the perfect flavor. Great chips! Great place!!


GREATEST TRADITIONAL FLAVOR
Reviewer: VIRGINIA M. from SANTA BARBARA, CA
The best flavor in town. Just like my grandmother's cooking. Excellent salsa. (Specially the roasted one). The place feels just like walking into grandmother's kitchen.


AWSOME!!
Reviewer: Jimmy from Santa Barbara, CA
by far the best breakfast burritos, i always used to wake up early so i could go with my friend eman to litos and grab some before school, i HIGHLY reconmend litos


MUCHO DEEE-LISHUSSSS!!!!!
Reviewer: Verne Langdon from Montecito, CA
I eat at LITO'S whenever possible. My fave is the CHILI COLORADO (ask for it "on the dinner"), which is better at Lito's than ANY Mexican restaurant in which I've ever eaten, INCLUDING all the "big bucks" places. Price of my Chili Colorado is less than ten bucks (like $9.95), and of course the rice and refried beans are always tops, as is the guacamole, and sensational SALSA! You can't go wrong with Lito's, and you'll NEVER be sorry!!!!


THE BEST
Reviewer: Kathleen from Santa Barbara
This is by far THE BEST MEXICAN FOOD ANYWHERE! The salsa is to die for. ALL burriots are melt in your mouth fantastic. Ernie is a delight to see each time behind the counter. I LOVE Litos! A must for anyone who enjoys true, homecooked mexican food


Good breakfast burritos!
Reviewer: Susan from evergreen, Colorado
The breakfast burritos are very good. They also have great chips and salsa!


Breakfast Burrito
Reviewer: Bill from Santa Barbara, CA
The breakfast burritos are AMAZING! Perfect after working out. The only problem is that sometimes the cheese and other ingredients aren't spread evenly throughout the burrito. For example, one bite will be all egg, another will be all cheese. Still worth it!


Awesome Mexican Food!!
Reviewer: Doreen from Lompoc
I am relatively new to the Lito's experience, but after having eaten their food a few times I can honestly say the food is consistantly great! I haven't eaten there, as I have always ordered something that a friend picks up for me, so I don't know what the service is truly like. I do know what my friends tell me though, and that is that the service is outstanding. I look forward to finding out for myself someday soon! Keep up the good work - Santa Barbara loves you!
