Best of South Bay

Nico Pitney: Grilled chicken flatbread is out of this world. Moroccan beet salad also great.

Nico Pitney: Beautiful stretch of beach with dramatic views and lots of rocks to climb

Nico Pitney: One of the most beautiful streets to walk in all the world. So wonderful.

Nico Pitney: "Small park packs a punch. 10+ short trails, one stunning scene after another. Sea Lion Point. Cypress Grove winds through a last Monterey Cypress grove, old, craggy, gorgeous. $10 parking fills up." Baca selengkapnya.

Vadim Litvak: The Regular burrito is a gutbuster. Got the Pollo Asado+cheese. Served wet! Also, a chips & salsa bar to melt your face. Aye aye aye!

Avery Jenkins: Get the Carnitas Burrito Supreme with extra Meat!!! Best Burritos in Santa Cruz, this place is a must while in town. Best Salsa around!!!

Katie Lippus: Best mole in town!! Their red pepper enchiladas can't be beat!! My strawberry margarita was a bit ice-y though and lacked flavor.. What happened there?!

Angela Glass: The banana and walnut French toast is spectacular.

Travel + Leisure: Everything about Phil's is unpretentious and quaint. Large, steaming bowls of cioppino are one of the most popular dishes. More places to eat like a local: tandl.me/12ufz7c

Dawn Thomas: My husband and I love the couple's massage/steam room at Watercourse. The only problem is that the 90 minutes seems to go so fast! The gift certificates are for special occasions! Baca selengkapnya.

Danielle Neufeld: Pies are great but buy them early because they run out fast. You can visit the animals on the farm too!

Will Reynolds Young: Everything we had was incredible. App sampler, Greek chicken, flaming cheese and more!

John Sims: Great spot to relax and take in the scenery. The playground was closed because they were upgrading it.

Luciana W: If you want to know what Brazilians eat every morning or if you are Brazilian and miss your daily breakfast, order the "Pingado": sliced French bread w/ butter served w/ coffee & warm milk. Saudades..

Nico Pitney: The risotto and the bread pudding were both amazing standouts.

Michael Villalobos Gomez: Possibly the best Mexican restaurant in Santa Cruz.

Caroline Deng: This place is what inspired the color "Filoli Green." The gardens and architecture of the estate are absolutely beautiful year-round, and the gift shop is very interesting to look at.

Ullz Iv: Very nice trail for a weekend ride. It is quite easy but rather long, so there is definitely room to get the needed amount of workout.

Mike Winston: Come for super-fresh, authentic poke bowls and other Hawaiian specialties. Stay for the island atmosphere and sunny, foliage-covered outdoor back patio. Read all about it on WinstonWanders below! Baca selengkapnya.

Mark Lindzy: Greek scramble is the bomb. And ask for some house made salsa too.

Nico Pitney: Huge supply of tasteful and affordable pots

Kathryn Gorges: Great ambiance and work space - excellent coffee tea and chocolate

Allen Wagner: Go for a walk, the trail goes over the water along a series of boardwalks. Easy trail.

Bjørn: Great baby swings in arm chair style, and 4 different slides.

Laura Salcido: This place is stacked full of obscure & academic books, new and used. Its not even pretentious!

Marina Orton: Amazing paninis, but also hummus and iced tea!

Andy Woodly: Go there in the morning. Gets really crowded during the day. Bars, pizza, ice cream and surf / SUP rental close to the beach.

Katya Kazbek: Amazing food, lovely owners and a friendly vibe. We had a salad, pelmeni, veggie buuz and mongolian chicken -- everything so delicious! Great cabernet at a bragain price, too.
