New Restaurant

Instead of driving or cycling to visit our favorite Taqueria – no more!!  Now we can take a 15 minute walk from the Cheshire Cat Inn to our new favorite Taqueria and Restaurant ‘Cielito’, located in La Arcada Mall which is a Spanish styled mall and is the most attractive we have in Santa Barbara.

Cielito Taqueria is located in the rear part of La Arcada Mall surrounded by a beautiful Spanish courtyard and fountain.  A truly delightful spot to sit and have lunch.  The variety of tacos is fantastic and flavors fabulous.  I had one with fresh salmon and a super tasty fruity salsa the other day, and wanted to eat more!!  Make sure you go early, gets very busy with the locals.  Open Mon-Sat 11.00am-2pm (lunch only).  Order at the counter and the food is delivered to the table.

 
Cielito – the Restaurant part is open for dinner Tues-Sun.  Indoor and outdoor dining and reservations are a must!  Food is a combination of regional Mexican and South American dishes served tapas style.  Can’t wait to go back!!!
