Endless Summer Bar Cafe
Located on the top floor of an old building, this casual surf chic establishment has surfboards hanging from the ceiling and plates of delicious seafood rolling out of the kitchen. The Endless Summer is a laid back establishment where most meals are served in a basket. The best way to enjoy Santa Barbara's great weather and great food it to get a table on the patio. The menu is extensive; try the popcorn shrimp or the sesame-crusted ahi on a warm spinach salad. The sea bass is another popular choice.

Longboard's Grill
Located on historic Sterns Wharf, Longboard's Grill, located upstairs from the Harbor Restaurant, offers sweeping views of Santa Barbara harbor, the San Ynez Mountains and the city of Santa Barbara, while serving American and seafood dishes. Seating is available inside on the patio, and the menu remains consistent. Featuring mostly fried seafood, the meals are always tasty. Open for lunch or dinner, Longboards is very popular with the ever-present tours crowd and locals alike. Most meals have a Hawaiian theme, with the Maui burger (double burger, Kona sauce, jack cheese and fried onion) is outstanding, the star here is the seafood. Try the steamed mussels for a starter and then the fresh local snappers (served blacken with rice). There is plenty on the menu from both the sea and land. The atmosphere is very casual and the prices moderate.
