“I would like some help. I’m trying to find the best chili verde in the Santa Barbara area. I would like it spicy and full of favor. I’ve tried many, but have not found a great one, so far. I need your readers help.” – Nobie

    While I’m no fan of Lito’s, I must admit that the chili verde is quite good. I’ve always found the rest of the menu items are to greasy.

    The consistently best chile verde I’ve had is at Presidio Market. They don’t have a platter though, just burritos/tacos/etc.

    I’ve also had good chile verde at La Chapala Market in Goleta, although it’s a little less consistent.

    Thank you everyone. Looking forward to trying the ones I haven’t. Great suggestion.

    If you make it down to Whittier, try Cilantro’s Tacos’ Chile Verde. It’s very good. I was just there on a trip down to SoCal.

    Oddly enough, my husband and I love the chile verde from Cajun Kitchen, especially if you have it for breakfast! Supper yummy. We also like Pepe’s.
