Excellent food and service! We felt very welcome here. Had breakfast and will definitely come again to have lunch/dinner.

I came in for lunch which was a little busy inside, but there is plenty of seating. We ordered the chicken flautas, Quesabirria, Costra de carne asada, & verdes de pollo Enchiladas. Their flautas are one of my favorite things to order- they're crispy & it is stuffed with chicken. The Quesabirria was cheesy, juicy and dripped with juice when you dipped it- I would definitely get again. The costra de carne asada is skirt steak, seared cheese, & bacon in a tortilla- delicious, but the Quesabirria was the favorite between the two. The verdes de pollo enchiladas are a good size meal with juicy chicken & flavorful salsa verde. Always a fantastic place to stop for food while in Santa Barbara.

I genuinely wanted to love this place. After reviewing the menu and photos online, my girlfriend and I made it a priority stop during our visit to Santa Barbara. She is of Mexican heritage and immediately recognized dishes that felt authentic and representative of her family's region. Unfortunately, the experience fell far short of expectations. We went for breakfast, and one of the main reasons we chose this restaurant was to try the café de olla. My girlfriend had talked it up as incredible traditional Mexican coffee that I had to experience. We were told they were out of it. That set the tone early, especially when it was one of the items that drew us in. The setup is counter service. You wait in line, place your order, receive a lotería card, then find your own table. Food is brought out when ready, but there is no follow up once it hits the table. There was confusion while ordering. My girlfriend initially ordered chicken enchiladas with green sauce and was told they were unavailable. She switched to shrimp enchiladas with red sauce, and also ordered tacos al gobernador and a margarita. I ordered the birria plate and a Mexican Coke. The total already felt steep for what we ordered. While waiting for drinks, I went to get water and was told it was in a metal pitcher by the wall. There were no cups. When I asked for cups, I was directed to the back of the ordering line. It took roughly 15 minutes just to get two glasses of water. The salsa bar was also poorly maintained. Several salsas were empty and never refilled while we were there. I asked for small dishes so we could at least use what was available and was told they would bring some out, but they never did. When the food arrived, they brought both enchilada plates, including the one they had said was unavailable. We had been charged for both. My girlfriend ended up with three full dishes plus my plate. It felt disorganized and poorly managed. Her margarita was a 2 out of 5 and the weakest one we had during the trip. My birria was decent but not memorable. It tasted similar to what I can get from a taco truck back home. A serious concern for me was that the birria plate included avocado even though it was not listed in the description. I am highly allergic to avocado. If it had been disclosed, I would have asked for it to be removed. Including a common allergen without listing it on the menu is a significant oversight. To finish, we asked three times for a to go box and never received one. Eventually, we gave up and left. The menu and photos look fantastic. The food itself was acceptable. But between running out of featured items, confusion at ordering, lack of restocking, allergy issues, and overall disorganization, the experience was frustrating from start to finish. Based on this visit, I cannot recommend it. Santa Barbara has better options for Mexican food that likely deliver a smoother and more attentive experience. read more

Amazing food in a fresh and spacious space, my wife and I came here before a show. Ordering is at the counter, take a number, they bring it to you. Space is large, industrial concrete and steel with high ceilings, but somehow warm and cozy at the same time. They have a many creative tacos, flautas, enchiladas and mole dishes that appear more "authentic" and not your everyday Mexican, as well as beer and cocktails. We ordered a bowl of guacamole, chicken mole enchiladas, enchiladas rancheras, sparkling water and a margarita, then sat down with our number. The guacamole and particularly the chips were incredible, tasting hot and freshly made, but in a smallish bowl. Margarita was very good too. Both our main dishes presented well, were loaded with flavor and top notch, with the mole being spot-on sweet and spicy with very nicely prepared beans and rice sides. To finish the guacamole, additional chips at $4 were needed. Counter service and food delivery times was good. This is probably the best Mexican food I've had in Santa Barbara, a big statement! My only (1/2 star) nit is for the price and quality of food and cocktail offerings, I feel the restaurant (and me) deserve more a finer dining, full table service experience. read more

We finally got around to trying this spot, and it definitely lived up to the hype. I ordered the chicken mole enchiladas along with a passion fruit margarita. I expected more of a sweet, but it had a nice, subtle kick of spice which was great. The margarita was strong in the best way and they were very generous with the pour (no complaints here!). My partner ordered the shrimp enchiladas and had zero complaints, which says a lot. The whole vibe and decor around the restaurant was great. I'd definitely come back again, 10/10 would recommend. Service great s/o to Janet for helping us. read more

Amazing food! We had a great experience at Corazon Cocina earlier and we heard this place had the same chef so we decided to stop in for dinner. We were greeted by Janet right away. She was very welcoming and made sure we had what we needed throughout our visit. I had the Rajas con Crema, a taco with poblano, corn, crema, and queso fresco on a blue corn tortilla. I didn't know exactly what to expect but it was EPIC! Maybe the best thing I've tasted so far this year, so much flavor, such fresh ingredients! My husband ordered the Birria Plate, which he loved. We shared a side of black beans and plaintains, but we really should have gotten two orders because those were out of this world too. The ambiance is casual. It almost felt like we were visiting friends for dinner. We will absolutely return on our next visit to Santa Barbara. read more

On Cinco de Mayo, I visited Corazon Comedor, located at 29 E Victoria St, to celebrate a birthday. I have visited this establishment on numerous occasions and have consistently had exceptional experiences with its culinary offerings. The large chips and guacamole are a must-order item. The service provided at Corazon Comedor is consistently impeccable. The ambiance is inviting and they have amazing food options. read more

Since moving to SB and moving away from home I have been craving some homemade chilaquiles and this was incredibly close. I wish they were a little bit more crunchy but other than that it tasted so good. I love the decor and the wall of saints it had. There's a salsa bar. One thing is I didn't know I was supposed to order at the front and waited around for a solid 20 minutes (completely my fault). Service was friendly. Can't wait to come back with my husband read more

I went for dinner, but I think this place is more popular during breakfast and lunch hours. You order at the counter then take a seat. Salsa bar located on the side. The burrito had a lot of flavor but the tortilla was kinda hard and made it difficult to cut with the knife. Overall the staff is friendly and it's not a bad spot to sit down and grab a quick bite to eat. read more

This is a nice place to come to sit and enjoy your lunch. I tried the rajas taco and my friend grabbed an asada taco. They both had blue corn tortillas, which were unique. Service was quick as we ordered at counter and then grabbed salsas at the salsa bar. Loved the green salsa! Only drawback is you have to pay for chips. Add in plantains and beans and you have a full meal and will be totally full when you leave! read more

Loved the ambience and the food. We got the: Vegetarian enchilada with mole - 4/5 - I really liked the stuffing (spinach and mushroom). The mole was a little bitter but the flavor grew on me. Rajas Tacos - 5/5 - absolutely loved the flavors and the cheese. Chips with beans and mole - complimentary, served with 4 salsas of different spice levels. The spiciest - with habanero and cheese was the best! Quick service, friendly staff and great decor. Parking in lots nearby - first 75 min free read more

Dropped in for breakfast. Street parking was available because I came early. This is a beautiful, restaurant with nice service. Although the champurrado was good, the Cafe de Olla was a bit on the sweet side. The food, salsas and chips were all good. I enjoyed it so much I know I will be coming back again. read more

Great spot up in Santa Barbara, I have been numerous times and I often recommend it to friends and family. My number one order is always the Flautas Sautarios (short rib flautas) and I'll usually get some guacamole and rice or beans to go with them. They are so flavorful and tender on the inside and nice and crispy on the outside, you really can't go wrong! If you have a sweet tooth I would also recommend finishing your meal with the Strawberry Tres Leches or the Dulce de Leche Flan, which I took with me to-go on this occasion. The staff is always friendly and the food comes out of the kitchen at a great pace whether you're dining in or placing an order to go. The interior is airy with high ceilings and well lit, with nice big windows. There is plenty of seating inside with two different rooms to accommodate plenty of diners, and a small bar as well. There aren't currently any outdoor seating options, and parking options can be tricky, but I wouldn't let that deter you from giving this restaurant a try! read more

This place was great, it would've received a 5 start rating but the wait was very long to get a table. Overall I would give this place a 4.5 the food was very delicious. Especially the chilaquiles with carne asada. The meat wasn't chewy and it was seasoned so good! Probably the best chilaquiles I've had. Definitely will come back when I go to Santa Bárbara again. The horchata was also good, definitely recommend. Very nice and clean restaurant. read more

Walked in this am just before 11. They sat my party of 10 pretty quick. This was our first time in and it won't be our last. Only negative thing was that once sat no one came by for our drink order for quite sometime. The food was outstanding. Some reviews mentioned that the berry French toast was soggy which it can be because it's served with ice cream. It was sweet and really good. My vegetable omelet was filled with mushrooms, onions, and spinach. I added their green salsa. The decor is lovely, nice staff, and delicious food. I look forward to returning next time I'm in the area. read more

Came here for breakfast at around noon on Sunday with a group of 6. I really wanted to like this place and it has a lot of potential, the breakfast just didn't cut it. Started with the mocha latte which was one of the best coffee drinks I ever had. I ordered the breakfast burrito and I would not recommend it. There was way too much cheese and the meat did not have too much flavor. It also barely had any sauce to balance out the burrito. Also service was incredibly slow and we went most of the meal without any water. I even tried to get up to fill the water myself but I was not allowed to. Dinner may be better cause the mole was delicious but just would not recommend for breakfast. read more

Corazon Comedor - Enchiladas Rancheras - Mexican Near Me - Santa Barbara, California

Corazon Comedor is another great restaurant chef Ramon has blessed us with. Nevermind the fact that he won the Michelin Bib Gourmand award! All the more reason to come here. If you're looking for a restaurant that is spacious, inviting and family friendly; then come here. They also offer takeout and online ordering. It tends to be busier on the weekends, so just be aware of that. On my recent visit, I tried the pozole. It was perfectly made and full of delicious flavors. Also served with all the toppings that go along with this comforting soup. I love pozole and this one did not disappoint! The small size was more than enough and I even had leftovers to take home. I also ordered the Mercadito de Champinones aka fried mushroom quesadilla. It was cheesy good. Also, The guac was fresh and perfectly seasoned. Well worth the splurge! My son tried the enchiladas todos santos; which is stuffed with poached shrimp, cheese and topped with a creamy poblano sauce. He thoroughly enjoyed. I've also tried their special of the day. A chile relleno Birria burrito, which was mind blowing delicious! I hope they bring this back. Overall, anything chef Ramon creates is going to be successful. I've been a long time supporter since the pop-up days and I will continue to support whenever I can. read more

Food was good. Wait times were long. It wasn't that busy this past Sunday when visited. Buyer beware, they charge a 3% credit card surcharge. This is ridiculous and I did not see this pre disclosed anywhere before checking out for the purchase. A ridiculous line item. Be mindful of this. read more

We were a family of four (two kids, 13 and 10) dining for a late lunch. When we walked in there wasn't a wait and were seated immediately. However, the hostess wasn't too friendly. The server Alejandro was very friendly and accommodating. I ordered pozole and ended up sharing with my kids. He offered to bring some extra bowls. The small was rather a pretty large bowl. It was the perfect amount of flavor and spice. My son's burrito was perfect for him. Good amount for a child's meal. The only thing we were disappointed with was the chicken quesadilla. It was on a blue taco tortilla. For the price it was very small, no sides included, hardly a meal. The description didn't mention anything about the nopales on it, but it came out with that and my husband had to ick it off. He only wanted the meat and cheese. They would have remade it, but we went ahead and kept it. The decor had some great art. It's a smaller restaurant and for sure on a busy night it would be crowded. I would definitely recommend this place for the authentic food, but probably not for people who have a more simple palette. read more

An Instagram-worthy brunch spot in downtown Santa Barbara, though I thought the food lacked where the ambience of the restaurant itself impresses. For brunch, I had the matahambre plate with a café de olla. While the coffee was true to itself, the food left much to be desired. I felt the chilaquiles just missed the mark from taking them over-the-top. The meat and potatoes, though, were a perfect compliment and salvaged what remained of the dish. Despite the mixed feelings towards the food, I'd still recommend for anyone looking for great service and picture-worthy food and ambience. read more

I wish I could give Corazon Comedor a better review but I just can't. I was part of a group of 10 for a bachelorette weekend and the server seemed annoyed with us from the get go. Our entrees also took a very long time to arrive. I was starving and basically inhaled my tacos which we're good, but not the best I've had. But, the cocktails were excellent and the ambiance and decor very cool. This would be a good spot for date night, just wouldn't recommend for a big group based on our experience. read more

Service seemed a little slow. Maybe because the following. They picked up all our plates after the appetizer and then we had to hold our silverware unless we wanted to put it directly on the table until our food came out - over 10 mins. And we had to ask for more water as well. Overall the food was pretty average. It was fun to get the free chips and 4 different sauces to try. The large soup was really big. But overall, the food was not too special for the price. Make reservations in advance. read more
