Gift Tips
- Try one of the paellas, such as the seafood or mariscos version, since it is one of the strongest parts of the menu and takes time to prepare.
- Order a mix of tapas so the table can sample more of the menu, including dishes like croquetas, pulpo, crudo, or patatas bravas.
- If you enjoy cocktails or sangria, leave room to try the bar program, which pairs well with the Spanish flavors.
- Ask about the patio seating if you want a more relaxed meal with a lively setting and garden feel.
- If you enjoy cocktails, sit at the bar and ask for a recommendation from the bartender for something balanced and creative.
- Save room for the churros or crema Catalana for a classic Spanish-style finish.

Loquita is a Spanish restaurant in Santa Barbara, California, located in the Funk Zone near State Street. It brings together tapas, seafood, and paella in a space that feels current and welcoming.
- Ambiance: Loquita offers a trendy, romantic setting in Santa Barbara’s Funk Zone. The patio, garden details, and open-kitchen feel give it a lively but polished atmosphere.
- Cuisine: The menu focuses on Spanish tapas and seafood, with paella as a standout. Guests can also find dishes like croquetas, crudo, octopus, and other shareable plates.
- Highlights: The restaurant is known for its well-made cocktails, Spanish wines, and strong service. It is a good choice for date nights, celebrations, and group dinners.
