Inside The chef’s
world

AT LA CANTINA, OUR TALENTED CHEFS WORK THEIR MAGIC TO CREATE AND DEFINE A WIDE RANGE OF MEXICAN TRADITIONS AND FLAVORS.

We are also deeply committed to bringing you nothing but excellent food made with high-quality ingredients. This is why we source our fresh fish and produce locally. By partnering with only the best farmers and markets in town, we ensure that our practices honor the Santa Barbara & Goleta communities.

We celebrate the vibrant colors and rich variety of flavors that define Mexican cuisine. These elements inspire us to continuously innovate, pushing the boundaries of both flavor and presentation in all of our creations.

The Restaurant

Countless hours were spent in the kitchen, testing and refining recipes until we achieved the perfect balance of flavors, colors, texture and presentation.

Additionally, our chef has perfected the art of making our corn tortillas from scratch, which are sure to be relished in each bite. We’ve also designed a portfolio of cocktails, which begin with homemade syrups and juices. Take one sip, and your taste buds will be craving more.
