Awesome experience as a tourist. Christmas week, and you see Santa Clause Lane, you have to exit the freeway to check it out. No disappointment, beach was nice, Padaro Beach Grill was in inviting and friendly. Good burgers onion rings, and an IPA, great time. Had tiny to large bird visitors, very acclimated to humans, gulls could hand feed fries, tiny birds crumbs. Beautiful courtyard with play areas for kids, looked like room for musicians, and walled view of the beach and surrounds.

Great setup outside but food needs some adjustments. Ordered one fried and one grilled fish taco. These tacos are very flavorful and delicious but an absolute nightmare to try and hold and get a good bite. The tortilla needs to be bigger and very tough to get a bite of everything in one bite because of how high up everything is stacked. The fried fish one was much better. I actually got a 1/2 inch piece of bone in my grilled fish on my second bite. Rest of the menu seems like elevated bar food. The style of delivery is order and then pickup. Silverware is not readily available either and had to ask for some. The fish tacos did come with chips and salsa and the salsa was very good and good level of spiciness

Fantastic veggie burger. Lots of fresh yummy toppings, and the patty was very tasty. Reasonably priced, especially since you have a beautiful ocean view from the adult only seating area. Staff was nice and friendly also. Despite all of the outdoor seating, no dogs are allowed except for service animals.

This place has everything! Great atmosphere, delicious food w/great portions, decent prices and ice-cold drinks! We’ve been coming to this place since my kids were toddlers! This place is built for real Carpinteria Natives; not like those expensive or greedy restaurants at the new Linden Square that are built for passer-byers. Thank you, Padaro Grill, for not being greedy and continuing in staying true to your delicious food quality, great portions, excellent customer service, and decent pricing. We will continue to give you our support. Cheers!

This place is a favorite for parents with children. There is a huge sand box and the side area is large enough for parties. The food does not disappoint. The servings are generous, and the variety of options is nice. My husband got the Shrimp Taco’s and I enjoyed the Grilled Shrimp Salad. There is also burgers and Fish and Chips. The draft beer has local favorites We always stop on our way south. Yum ! Oh, there are seats with an ocean view. Stop on by !

The atmosphere is so calm and peaceful. The food was amazing and drinks were good. You order your food and once its ready you’ll get buzzed to pick it up. Its ready pretty quickly. They have a sandbox for the kids and a higher area for adults only. Very versatile for people with and without kids.

Location near the sea, Amtrack train line, and it’s fun outdoor dining options make this restaurant a must-visit near Carpenteria, including those wanting to grab an easy and relaxing meal before or after nearby Santa Barbara poli matches.

Had a relaxing and beautiful experience on a weekday afternoon while driving to Ventura.
Quality food, although it felt a bit pricey when compared to similar joints. You pay for the ambiance and scenery.
Family friendly!
PS-As of Apr 2025, parking can be a bit of a challenge, with limited spots and road construction happening right across.
