Guidebook for Santa Barbara & Carpinteria
Food Scene
Delgado's Restaurant
4401 Carpinteria AveGreat Authentic Mexican - we love the Chili Verde
The best breakfast spot you can find, they get very busy on weekends but they do take reservations, they have a special 1/2 price omelette special from 7a-8a every morning. They are open for breakfast and lunch and it's the closest and best option. Their bacon is the best around.

If you like unique movie theaters this one is amazing...the interior of the theater is not like anywhere else. It's not the best for sound though as it's older and larger than most.

The best small zoo most have ever been to, you can bring in food and drinks and it's small enough to do in 1-2 hours. You can feed the giraffes, and ride a little train around the zoo.
