Fire breakfast burrito. They used bacon strips and not bacon crumbs. I would recommend their breakfast burrito to anyone.

Been getting breakfast burritos from Lito's for years but never considered to get lunch there until this weekend. I also wanted to check out their remodel. Chili colorado combo plate for $17.55 and the lunch chile relleno combo for $14.95. They serve chips and a red and green salsa, the green salsa is spicy. Everything was really good, but the beans could be better, I am not sure if they offer a different style of beans or not. They only serve bottled and canned drinks, no fountain drinks. They have (1) tv and had the football game on so that was a plus. Chatty/friendly staff. Glad we finally went for lunch! read more

Came for breakfast. Ordered the menudo, green chilaquiles and carnitas burrito to go. Everything was delicious. Chilaquiles were a little spicy for my buds, but still good. Carnitas taco was as big as a burrito. read more

Lito's serves an amazing humongous breakfast burrito. I thought that I was not very hungry when we took a short drive from our hotel to Lito's. I confess, I am not a big breakfast guy. But hey, I am on vacation and finished a tough tennis match. I ordered up the potato & egg burrito with Spanish rice. It is amazing. The tortilla wrap is loaded with tender potatoes, fresh eggs, and well prepare rice. I bet it is close to a whole pound. So, I am half way through eating this delicious burrito, and cannot put it down. I devour entire burrito! So good! I add dashes of Cholula hot sauce for extra flavor. I just like my food very spicy. This is a must-do stop in Santa Barbara if you like breakfast burritos. read more

Lito's Take Out - Guy F. from Triple D ate here. It has to be good. - Mexican Near Me - Santa Barbara, California

Absolutely phenomenal. The food is second to none. I highly recommend checking them out. I am so glad we have Lito's in town!

Visited Lito's every day for breakfast, when I was in Santa Barbara! The burritos were so flavorful, filling, and a great deal! I loved all of their salsas. Especially the hot salsa! I tried the pork with verde sauce burrito (sorry I forgot the name on the menu) and the Chile relleno burrito. The pork was so tender and the verde sauce paired well with it! The Chile relleno burrito was out of this world! I loved the cheese that oozed out and the chile had a slight smokiness that tasted so good in the burrito. If you're looking for a trip to flavortown (shout-out guy fieri for the rec), definitely stop by here!! read more

Favorite place for a breakfast burrito. Always stop by and get one when I'm in town. Love the online ordering system. Super fast

I ordered a breakfast burrito with egg cheese and avocado. It was tasty, the portion was big, they were generous on the fillings. The take out process was quick and easy. I ordered and paid online, just walked in and grabbed the food togo. Their online system is great. They have a limit of 3 customers inside the store. The parking could be an issue sometimes since it's a busy one way street. read more

One of the best breakfast burritos I've had great burrito. I have the chorizo and it's everything I wanted in a breakfast burrito.

Ordered a breakfast burrito online. It was ready when I got there. Friendly ladies working. The burrito was good. I got the potato & egg, definitely my fault for the lack of a good hearty flavor due to lack of meat. But, the potato and eggs were still seasoned and I ate it with the salsa. Yummy. read more

I was craving a vegan breakfast burrito (mainly no meat/cheese). I found Lito's here on Yelp and decided to try it. Ordered and paid online. I was able to choose each ingredient which made it easy to accommodate my eating preferences. I also liked that I got to choose ALL the salsas! The burrito was huge! I was gonna take a picture of it but devoured it instead sans photos. I Love that they are breakfast burrito pros and have lots of options! I will definitely come back here when I'm craving one. read more

Tried three burritos: chicken, fish, and a egg & potato breakfast burrito. I appreciated the chicken not being dry and the fish burrito was seasoned very well. The fish burrito isn't typically a highlighted item on the menu or even in reviews, but you won't regret trying it! (If you like fish (: ) Unlike other fish burritos, this one isn't deep-fried so it doesn't feel heavy. The breakfast burrito was good and filling, though slightly on the bland side. I used some of their delicious salsa to add some more flavor, definitely worked! Service here was 5/5. Very kind and patient staff! read more

Take-out only for COVID times. This spot has been on triple D's by Guy Fieri for their pork pozole. Their pozole is served daily and menudo is on the weekends. Soup comes in 2 sizes and comes with your choice of corn or flour or tortilla or chips along with the accompaniments of cabbage, onion, radish, etc. Thumbs up on the pozole. The broth is rich. We ordered also a breakfast burrito. Ordered chorizo and egg and added nopales, potatoes, and cheese. I wish something as potatoes or cheese was already included in the breakfast burrito already since it's usually a breakfast burrito staple versus being charge as add-ons. On the weekends they get pretty busy. The wait time they told us of 10 minutes for our food to be ready turned into 25 minutes for our food. It's contstant orders from people waiting to online and phone orders. read more

Passing through Santa Barbra we had just seen this place on tv & decided to try it. Well worth the effort! We both had pozole & loved it! Such big servings too, neither of could totally finish. Loads of hominy, excellent pork and not fatty!! Highly recommend! Friendly staff & nice casual environment, small. We went on a Wednesday at lunch, no wait. read more

Awesome food as always, i was bummed no potato taquitos. The burrito was huge and tasty!

Social distancing in place and masks enforced. Food was absolutely delicious. The chips were crispy, not greasy and The salsa was flavorful. The tacos weren't greasy and didn't fall apart, the rice was moist but still fluffy, the beans creamy, the enchiladas were fantastic; the sauce and the cheese were perfect. I can't wait to go back! read more

On the way back from camping in Santa Barbara and decided to stop by this place for some Mexican food. The lady at the register recommended the fish tacos special and Carnitas combo plate. The grilled fish tacos were super fresh and did not feel heavy at all like a typical fried fish taco. The carnitas were cooked to perfection, super tender and juicy. Lito's did not disappoint! read more

Great little Mexican restaurant that clearly had a posh makeover! I got a bacon & egg burrito with avocado and the Anaheim chili and cheese burrito. Assuming you have a normal appetite, you can share one with a friend. The guacamole is delicious, as is the salsa. I will definitely be back to try more! read more

My breakfast burrito reminded me of something I might have at a Mexican Grandma's home. It had a nice "Casero" (homemade) flavor. I ordered my burrito with eggs, chorizo, bacon and beans. It was delicious. There was hardly any bacon in the burrito, which was odd. The beans combined with egg and chorizo were perfect. Order your food with the hottest liquid salsa made here! The burrito was both lunch and dinner. Yes, breakfast burritos are served until closing time here! This is a family owned business! Enjoy read more

Anyone who's been here knows this is not what authentic Mexican food tastes like. If you have sat down for a meal in Mexico, you know for sure this is not authentic Mexican food. It is quite obvious this place uses a lot of canned and boxed ingredients. The food is highly processed and the dining area is dirty. The chips are not fresh, clearly not made through out the day as should be. Stale, cold chips probably sitting under a lamp to make them appear warm. The salsas are completely flavorless, barely a hint of salt. The rice mixture is for sure canned and the tortillas packaged not even home made. place was just renovated and it's already filthy. The workers will wipe off a surface but completely neglect the legs of the tables which are really dirty. The cushions against the wall are already stained. Imagine spending all the money on renovations and not even making an effort to professionally clean this place. I watched someone clean a table with some old rag, first they cleaned the bench where peoples butts go and then they wiped the table!! No sense of hygienic security here. This place is horribly overrated. I guarantee their produce is non organic and their meats probably the same. Non organic non grass fed. Cheap quality ingredients and food. Dirty place. If you eat here often then it is clear your palate is just used to lazy read more

Order chicharon burrito it was packed with rice and beans. Not worth $13- for rice and beans!

Stopped in for a bean and cheese burrito about 12:30 on a Sunday. They were busy and the place is small so it was kind of loud but expected since it is more of a take out place. Also no bathroom but again expected. My burrito came out quickly with lots of cheese and refried beans. Possibly the best I've had. read more

Without a doubt, Lito's makes one of the best breakfast burritos, not just in town, but probably all of southern California. We had the potato, eggs, and chorizo and two of us shared one burrito and were still completely stuffed. It's massive and at only $8 or so, it's one of the best value breakfasts you can probably find in Santa Barbara. Don't forget their amazing red tomatillo salsa :) read more

My coworker told me about this place and their amazing burritos. Also told me that it was on Guy's Diners, Drive in's, and Dives....which, if anyone watches the show, you know all of his recommendations are top notch. My coworker got all of our orders and picked it up. So unfortunately I cannot comment on the surrounding area, inside of the restaurant, or the staff members. However, I can comment on the food quality. IT WAS SO GOOD! I got there Louisiana Spicy Sausage and Egg burrito. It honestly took me half the day to eat it though because it was huge (and I can complain because it was a great meal I got to enjoy over the course of the whole day!) Inside was cheese, potatoes, eggs, and spicy sausage. Shasta has great flavor with that little Louisiana kick to it! Try it with the green salsa!! read more

Way overpriced. Nothing special. They add lots of lard to their beans. I've had better food at Taco Bell for half the price. People working there are rude, unhelpful, and unpleasant. Even though this restaurant was on Triple D, it doesn't mean you should come here. I think they're just cashing in and don't care about product or people anymore. Save your money and go somewhere else. I'll never be back to this establishment. One more thing to add: have some Pepto handy for afterwards. read more

I've wanted to try this place ever since seeing it on Diners and Drive ins. We tried the taquitos platter, and the chile relleno. The relleno was different that any I've tried. The melted cheese mixed with salsa made up the sauce. The stuffed chile was in a folded over omelet, rather than being battered and fried the traditional way. I found the batter to be properly light where it touched the chile, but hard and dense otherwise. The density and dryness of the egg had me thinking that it had just come from the microwave. I still enjoyed it, but was in no way really impressed. An average relleno. The taquitos, three of them, were stuffed with shredded beef, and weren't at all bad. They weren't the crispy crunchy type, but rather had a chew to the tortillas. The sauce that topped them wasn't at all spicy, and reminded me of the Mexican food I discovered as a kid in the sixties and seventies. Red and tomato based, almost sweet, but still savory and good. Olvera Street? Old school Cali-Mex flavors on the sauce. The beans weren't thin and soupy, but medium textured and tender, and had the proper lard in your mouth feel, but not too much. I liked them, my wife said they were just okay. I mixed her leftovers with the remaining taquito sauce and had them with the chips they provided, which were warm and crispy good. The rice was fluffy and pretty basic, without the peas and carrots. Lito's was overall pretty good, but I may have to try some of their other things, as my experience was a solid three star one. read more

Ohh My Goodness. The food at this restaurant was amazing. I have weird taste when it comes to breakfast burritos and even though I was ordering through the phone they got my order perfectly made. And they were soo fast making my order in total about 8 minutes for two burritos. And the atmosphere just felt like you were home and your aunt was cooking you some amazing food in the kitchen. I will definitely come back here. read more

Lito's is the 1st place I go when I'm back in SB. I've been going there since the early 80's when I was a youngster. I've tried everything they have and it's all great! My favorite is the beef, chile taquitos w/rice & beans combo. It's a small place but very popular so seating is limited. I like eating there so I'm glad indoor dining is allowed again. Do yourself a big favor & come try it. You'll be hooked for life, like me. read more

Lito's. I have a dog whose nickname is Lito. I like the food and service in this blue collar diner. Typical in its Mex, short meñu style. Food is fresh, delicious. Just good solid Mex. Staff is efficient and friendly. Not a dinner date spot or a place for family get togethers. It's a simple and straightforward breakfast and lunch place. Great place to stop for takeout burritos. read more

Solid place to eat. Never disappoints. Chilaquilles, torta, and tri tip burrito all have been good. ,

Food was authentic and delicious. More like a fast food restaurant but with tasty food. We had lunch there so there was lots of traffic coming in and out which is good for business. Service was quick and food was hot! If you're looking for a quick bite to eat this is the place. read more

This place is the bomb! Carne asada burrito to go, heck make it two! I'm craving a burrito now just thinking about it.

Best Pozole ever. This famous little diner/takeout spot is a little Santa Barbara gem. Pozole was rich in flavor and very well prepared. Pork was laced throughput in good proportion to broth and hominy. Especially liked how there was no fatty bits, just great flavor. read more
