I think the place is absolutely wonderful! The food is gourmet and really tasty, the chef is wonderful, the people couldn't be more friendly and supportive, the atmosphere outdoors is relaxed and dogs / family friendly, they have music on Friday and Saturday night that is professional and engaging and again - the staff is always of the highest caliber. I am usually there every week, so this isn't just a one-time thing.
Well there's no question that Kanaloa offers the BEST seafood taco in SB! My personal favorite is the Jerked Swordfish with curry like dressing, that's topped with pickled ginger and chopped cabbage. Semi soft corn taco shell makes it easy to consume these overloaded delights. Don't forget to have a Stone Brewing Delicious IPA to wash it all down. The price tag of $16 for 3 tacos is a little steep (that means $50 lunch for 2 with beer) but the best always is priced appropriately.
Best seafood anywhere! One of my favorite eateries, Oxnard or Santa Barbara.
wow! some really beautiful food lately. Congrats Chef Roberto....good job.
The Salmon, Shrimp, and Swai we bought was AMAZING and the service was incredible. Thank you!
Fish tacos were perfect! Friend had the grilled salmon and the salad with beets and goat cheese. "Perfect"

Spectacular product and great service.
Group order of Fish and Chips, Salmon Club, Half + Half Poke, and Crispy Fish Tacos. The battered fish in the fish and chips were the best battered fish I've had. The batter is not overdone and the fish retains it's original appearance inside, the meat clings together really well. The same fish is also found in the crispy fish tacos. The side of chips (fries) are also part of the Salmon Club which have a very good potato consistency inside and a crisp exterior fry. The salmon in the sandwich was very hearty and you can see the quality of the salmon in presentation. The Half + Half Poke was also a good choice, the tuna was especially smooth and soft. Parking here may be a bit rough on site but fortunately there is street parking nearby and a shopping center parking lot across the street.
Korean salmon and swordfish jerk tacos were amazing!! Super fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Fish sandwich that our neighbors got looked really good too.
Literally the best fish and chips I’ve ever had. Great fry on the outside, soft whitefish on the inside. Oysters were tasty, fries were excellent.
Was looking for some chowder bread bowls and Kanaloa showed up. I'm happy I stopped by cause the coconut shrimp was so tasty. It was accompanied by a mango sauce, sounds weird, but worked wonderfully. The chowder bread bowl was bomb, and I ate it so fast I forgot to take a picture, lol.

The Crispy Fish tacos here are super delicious of perfect crispness and fresh flavors of the sea and land …pico de gallo salsa with pineapple for me the aioli sauce could of been just a tad spicier but the lady added a 6 premium order of oysters to enjoy and guess what…I added horseradish from the oysters on to my last fish taco and boy was that a tremendous explosion of spicy flavors…perfectly I’d say!! Oysters were delivered quickly and deliciously enjoyed paired with a Maui Pineapple Mana wheat beer…Because of the nice hot climate I asked for a cup of ice to poor my beer in and seriously….Happy combination I’d say!! So if you’re in the Santa Barbara area looking for great fresh seafood…Kanaloa Seafood is where you’d like to go…they do have parking lot., but if there isn’t any there not to worry there’s plenty of parking around corner or down street to local parking lots…prices very reasonable. Staff here very polite and place is super clean…there’s seating indoors and outdoor patio dining oh and a super from me to having clean bathrooms…that’s a plus 🙌being my first time eating here and enjoy their food…I’ll definitely come again and enjoy their fish burgers which looked amazing too…well next time🌻💯❤️
Literally couldn’t dream up a more delightful spot! Beautiful setting, excellent customer service and FRESH AF seafood. This was the highlight of my trip to Santa Barbara. Highly recommend.
The Korean tacos taste very good! Light and fresh two tacos is plenty, if you just want a quick bite. First time visit and it was memorable!
We loved Kanaloa. We came by after visiting the SB Mission. They have fresh seafood and amazing service. I adored my tacos and my partner loved his mussels. They had several good beer options. This place was VERY clean. Like absurdly clean. Thank you for a wonderful meal and afternoon!
