My usual breakfast burrito shop was not open yet, so I decided to try something new. The location…read moreof this shop is on the opposite side of the freeway from downtown Carp sandwiched in a small strip mall across from a gas station. This looks like a real local shop! This is definitely a no thrill kind of shop-- so maybe a more to go kind of place-- grab your food and head to the beach! We ordered a breakfast burrito with bacon- the burrito cost about 11 dollars. The burrito was pretty simple- cheese, eggs, potatoes and bacon. There was no beans or avocado within the burrito we ordered. It was good but was not amazing. The burrito was average in size. The salsas provided with the burrito were amazing-- I really enjoyed the spicy salsas- we had a green (perhaps jalapeno) and a red sauce. The service was ok-- not really warm or friendly. We were in a rush, so small conversation was not really necessary. Lastly, something to note is that this is a cash only venue-- so come prepared.

My partner had the Maui Burger and Sweet Potato Fries and they were equally as yummy.

Great place for kids to play in the sand. Such a fun vibe.

We visited Carpinteria for the first time as a little summer escape from the heat in Simi Valley,…read moreand after arriving hungry, we came across this place. What a great find! The restaurant was busy, with tables pretty much full both inside and outside, but luckily we were able to get seated without a wait. I ordered the fish tacos, my son had the linguini pomodoro, and my wife ordered the cioppino. Everything was delicious. The seafood tasted incredibly fresh, and the fish in the cioppino was so tender it practically melted in your mouth. The broth was rich and savory--maybe a little on the salty side, but we still really enjoyed it. The service was another highlight. Everyone was kind, friendly, and welcoming, and you could tell the staff was working hard to make sure everyone had a good experience. I also really liked how diverse the menu is. There are plenty of choices for different tastes, whether you're in the mood for seafood, pasta, tacos, or something else. Overall, this was an awesome first experience and a great discovery during our trip to Carpinteria. We'll definitely be back next time we're in town, and we're looking forward to trying more dishes from the menu!

This used to be one of our favorite spots in Carpinteria, which makes it especially disappointing…read moreto leave a 1-star review. Unfortunately, after giving Teddy's by the Sea multiple chances, the problems have become too consistent to overlook. We've had repeated issues with online orders--food mixed up or not prepared the way we ordered it. On one occasion, we even found a piece of plastic in our lobster mac and cheese. But the most frustrating issue has been the completely inconsistent closing time. They advertise that they're open until 8:30 PM, yet we've shown up as early as 7:40 PM and been told they're already closed. This hasn't happened just once--it's happened to us multiple times. We really used to enjoy coming here, but between the order mistakes, the plastic in the food, and never knowing whether they'll actually be open during their posted hours, we've finally given up. If you advertise that you're open until 8:30, customers should reasonably be able to expect you to be open at 7:40.

My first look at the dish, I knew I was in for a treat. The taste and authenticity better than I expected. I was blown away by the quality and artistry.

Quite frankly, I judge a restaurant by the food quality, not necessarily service or ambience. I would rather have great food and crappy service, than the other way around. But this place delivers on all fronts.
