If you find yourself within 50 miles of Santa Barbara and you consider yourself a fish taco aficionado, you have to try Cesar's Place. Hands down the best fish taco on the planet. Fresh grilled fish on homemade corn tortillas. I don't know what is in the secret sauce but it's the bomb! Not cheap at $9 for one taco but worth it!

The food here is great! We always come here because my wife enjoys their Mojarra dish. Service is good and so is the overall ambience of the place. Not much to note since it is like your typical Mexican Restaurant, not that it's a bad thing though. The one thing that I will note is that the place is a bit dirty in some places such as the floors could be swept better but other than that this place is great!

Best Aguachiles in town! They are so sweet and spicy and the shrimp tastes so fresh! It just melts in your mouth like butter. Their green chicken enchiladas are amazing. And if you're drinking here you HAVE to get the micheladas. They are so giant and delicious.

Service was little slow because they were busy. My friend and I still enjoyed our meal. The aguachiles were kinda spicy but the good kind, runny nose and flavor burning your tongue. The ceviche tostada portion was so big and filling! Great vibes and yummy food!

First off, I'm not a drinker, it's really rare. I had a weird craving for a Michelada and had been told by many locals that this was the spot. Walked into this little hole in the wall joint and ordered a ceviche de camarón and 3 Micheladas to go. Wow, right on the money Well done!

I will have to say that I usually order takeout but I was finally able to enjoy a plate at its location and finally able to write this review. I will have to take a star away as service was just not up to par. After we were provided salsa and chips, we did not see our waiter after our plate was served. Thankfully, we didn't need anything else but it's always nice to make sure your clients are satisfied. I would have to take another star away because once we were told to pick a seat, we noticed that the tables that were available, were not cleaned up properly. I would understand if they were completely swamped with clients, but that was just not the case on this day. Now when it comes to food, a star is definitely added! Our favorite plate will have to be the Ceviche Mixto! It is such a large portion, that me and my fiancée always have to share! Another favorite will have to be their Micheladas! I highly recommend given it a try. I'm usually not a fan of Micheladas but this one is my absolute favorite! It's unique taste is just so delicious! Especially on a nice warm day, it will definitely satisfy your thirst. I can't leave out their delicious cucumber, spinach and pineapple Agua Fresca! It is so refreshing and you can taste the fresh quality of the fruit and vegetable. Definitely will be going back to give it another try!
