Now serving brunch Saturdays and Sundays starting at 10am, lunch Wednesday through Sunday from 11am, and dinner seven nights a week beginning at 5pm! Join us for our new Happy Hour, Wednesday through Sunday from 3–5pm. Welcome to The Ellwood at Goleta Beach—Santa Barbara County’s premier oceanfront dining destination. Just a minute from UCSB and the Santa Barbara Airport, The Ellwood offers a warm, elevated setting for everything from casual meals to unforgettable celebrations. Our menu is rooted in fresh, locally sourced ingredients and inspired coastal flavors, with standout dishes designed to be shared and savored. From handcrafted cocktails to a thoughtfully curated wine list, our beverage program pairs perfectly with the views. Whether you're a local or visiting from out of town, we can’t wait to welcome you to The Ellwood.
Set in a massive, historic Victorian home in quaint Summerland, this is a favorite breakfast and lunch spot among locals. The walls are whimsically painted, and the fun menu features an amusingly outdated guide to table etiquette that features tips like “be careful to keep the mouth shut closely while masticating the food.” Try Belgian Waffles covered in fresh strawberries and whipped cream for breakfast, or the “May Lambert, Please” oven roasted turkey, cheddar, bacon and tomato on grilled sourdough for lunch. Just be sure to keep your mouth closed!
Authentic Mexican Food with fresh homemade corn tortillas. We serve breakfast, lunch and dinner.
