"A longtime diner opened in 1928 on a central Downtown Santa Barbara corner, opening at 7:30 a.m. for pancakes, omelettes, and huevos rancheros; breakfast runs until 11 a.m. For lunch and dinner, offerings include the classic Cobb salad, lasagna or ravioli, a New York steak with garlic butter, an open-faced tri-tip sandwich, and rotating daily specials such as beef stroganoff, pot pies, and chile rellenos. Cocktails are available at all times of day." - Mona Holmes
