About LITO'S TAKE OUT

One of the best places to get your Mexican fix with a really great service, price point and 100% authenticity when it comes to traditional Mexican food in the USA. A family-run establishment for several decades, you'll be treated like part of the circle when you stop by to check them out in the wonderful city of Santa Barbara. The two most popular items we discovered on our first visit here were the freshly made Carnitas and of course the local favorite here, Pazole! This Mexican main-stay has been a hot spot for locals for some years now, it's almost a best kept secret until now. There is limited seating here, but we find much of the menu is an easy grab and go type of solution that we never really have the need to hang out. Besides, being in sunny California it's a great chance to take it closer to the amazing beach and enjoy the meal by the surf and sun. For well over 40 years now, they have put smiles on customer faces and will without question, make you a return customer for life after just one visit. So many other delicious options here include their wide range of Burritos especially their huge Breakfast Burritos that will fill you to the brim. Also the Fish Tacos Special or Carnitas Combo Plate will please you. So folks, do yourselves a huge favor and swing by Lito's Mexican Take Out when in Santa Barbara and let them know we sent you. Never in the past have we been so excited to share a genuine Mexican quit pit stop such as this one.
