La Paloma Café opened in November 2020 at 702 Anacapa Street, the former home of the Paradise Café and, well, La Paloma Café. The original La Paloma was a traditional Mexican restaurant that was operated by the property owners from 1940-1983 at which time the space was leased to the Paradise Café which carried the torch for the next 37 years.
Ever since the dawn of the pandemic, the eatery has offered dinner, then expanded to brunch. La Paloma lunch has now arrived, available Wednesday-Friday 11:30 a.m. – 2:30 p.m. New favorites include the Power Salad, Wagyu Tri-Tip Torta, and the Crispy Fish Tacos.
