Ho. lee. Sheeeee…read more... The tacos came out naked, on paper plates, which was actually the taqueria experience I'd been looking for (it's Milpas, so, options...). Still, there's clearly a post-millennial, new generation vibe to the place, digital screen menus, slightly limited menu (no conventional chicken filling), 20-something brothers running the place, so I'd changed my expectations. For a second I was disappointed, before I remembered my original expectations. Then I got a good look at the house-made tortillas (pics posted). When I got to the salsa bar, I did another double take. Is that...? PEANUT salsa, bro. Spicy. Done, I'm done. I've got nothing else.

Visited twice in one day -- that should tell you everything…read more I make a point of hitting up a different taco spot whenever I'm in Santa Barbara, and this trip I did both locations back to back: the diner on Milpas, then the food truck near the SB Bowl a few hours later. Standout was the rajas con queso -- genuinely one of the best versions I've had, and somehow even better from the truck than the diner. Also tried pastor, cabeza, carnitas, and shrimp, and every single one delivered. No weak link on the menu. What I appreciate about Pipeye is that it's not a tourist-line spot -- it's the kind of place locals actually recommend when you ask. I posed that exact question to a Mexican family, and after a beat of consideration, their answer was Tacos Pipeye. That tracked with everything I'd already experienced. If you're comparing SB taco spots -- La Super-Rica gets the tourist attention, but ask around and you'll hear El Bajío and Lilly's come up just as often among people who eat here regularly. Pipeye belongs in that conversation too, and for me, it's currently at the top. Diner and food truck both worth seeking out. Will be back next visit.

For the 3 years coming here... the jalapeño burger during burger week always satisfies and never…read moredisappoints! Staff is friendly and welcoming with a smile, even the cooks look over to wave, smile, and greet you! It's places like this that put people first... not to mention prepare delicious food! We ordered the burger week special- double stacked burger with cheese, Guac, and chopped jalapeños- I can't remember all the ingredients, but it sure was worth the wait. For the past 3 years of ordering this jalapeño burger, it has never been dry, but so juicy! This is the place to go to for great salsa too! So far my fave is the guacamole salsa. The asada burrito was great too- had to buy one for the road :) Thank you for the friendly service and the tasty burger!

The burritos went from $10 to now being $17!!! Mind you, the sizes of their burritos or tacos haven't gotten any bigger. Also that's a 70% increase, that is insanity.!!! At this point might as well go to los Agaves and get a side salad and chips, as well as unlimited Salsa with your food. Gloria, I hope you see this and rethink your prices because you've lost a loyal customer!

I paid in full 6 months in advance just to make sure that I will get the black truck for my wedding. Guess what they brought on my wedding day, The white truck that I did not like. No phone calls beforehand, no apologies. Melissa and her husband were crooks and I don't believe they have a black truck. They just show it on their website, but I think it's non existence. Very deceitful. If there is less than one star, that's what I would give them.

Not only was the pizza some of the best pizza I have every had (I am not kidding, multiple guests asked for their business card), but they were extremely professional, clean, and well organized. So many guests told me how surpisingly well oiled of a machine they were. If a pizza was almost out of slices, they already had another one less than 30 seconds away from being ready. On top of being great food and the fasts buffet I have ever experienced, their set up was beautiful! My family and friends were so worried when I said I was going to have pizza for my somewhat fancy wedding and every single one of them was blown away at how upscale they made pizza. 1000/10 would recommend

We are very happy that we found Valerie and El Pastorcito to be able to host this.

Many of the guests were very happy with the food (and one person even ate 11 tacos!)

It was a piping hot day and while we wanted some churros, we thought the promise of ice cream seemed like a great treat. Within a few short minutes, our churro split was ready to go. My friend and I dug in right away. It was soooo good. The vanilla ice cream was a creamy cold counterpart to the hot crispy churros that provided a perfect balance. There was a drizzling of sauce and sprinkles which provided a nice texture and taste to the sundae as well. Overall, this visit to Fernando's was a success! Many years ago, I remember buying churros from them when I lived on the Westside. I've always recalled them as having delicious churros and glad to report that their status persists!!
