Manuel's Restaurant:
Right by Seacliff State Beach you will find Manuel's Restaurant which has been a beloved fixture in the local dining scene for over five decades. This family-owned establishment prides itself on serving traditional Mexican fare made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. My daughter loves the carne asada tacos and I am a big fan of the chile relleno and Margaritas. The restaurant's cozy ambiance and great service make it the perfect spot for a casual lunch or a festive dinner with friends and family.
Palapas:
Located in the Seascape Village in Aptos with ocean views and a great bar, Palapas is a long time favorite with both locals and tourists. My favorite meal at Palapas is the ceviche tostada. They have great chips & salsa and stong Margaritas. Very festive and fun vibe that makes you feel like you are on vacation.
Tacos Morenos:
No exploration of Mexican cuisine in Santa Cruz would be complete without a visit to Tacos Morenos. This beloved taqueria has been a favorite locals and visitors alike with its authentic street-style tacos and burritos since 1992. This is a casual taqueria in Santa Cruz that won't break the bank.
Must-Try Dish: Super Burrito – A hearty burrito stuffed with your choice of meat, rice, beans, cheese, salsa, guacamole, and sour cream, all wrapped in a warm flour tortilla.
