Flor De Maiz

The Best Restaurants in Santa Barbara, According to Eater Editors | Eater LA

"Flor de Maiz, a casually elegant Latin diasporic restaurant, has a varied menu that caters to all sorts of dinner occasions. Here, esquites come in a small cast-iron skillet with zig-zags of Tajín aioli; different moles manifest in dishes with tender halibut, grilled chicken, or, more unexpectedly, burrata; ceviches run the gamut, from ahi tuna to octopus. The breezy dining room is reminiscent of somewhere coastal in the Yucatán peninsula, and the spot is versatile enough that it can serve for date night, friend get-togethers, and family dinners." - Mona Holmes
