Costa Terraza Restaurant Tapas Bar

Hours are arbitrary- we asked to be seated at 5:45pm, what we thought would be a perfect/slightly early dinner before leaving (supposedly they are open until 8:30pm). After waiting for a couple minutes to be seated without having anyone acknowledge us,we were told that the kitchen was closed. I asked if there was a specific reason, and was rudely responded with ?No, I?ve justbeen here since 9am and am closing?. Eat before coming to the airport.

Wow! I?m so impressed!!! We usually don?t have time to stop here before or after a flight into or out of Santa Barbara Airport. Today we decided to get to the airport early and enjoy some downtime before our flight back to Portland. The employeesare so lovely!! Karina was our server tonight and she made us feel so welcome and took great care of us. She is very sweetand attentive. We had a couple of margaritas. My daughter had the mango and I had the blood orange. They did not disappoint!! Also, their prices are very reasonable. Margaritas are only $11! The tortilla chips are freshly prepared and absolutelyamazing. We loved the Caesar salad and sweet potatoes fries! Tonight?s special was tri-tip tacos. 3 tasty and generous sizedtacos! Delicious! We did not order wine but can attest to the generous wine pours. Our flight was delayed and they stayedopen later to accommodate the stressed, hungry and thirsty travelers. I didn?t get the name of the bartender- he was fantastictoo! We will definitely make this part of our travel routine!

Rude staff. The male server rudely said to sit wherever I want after he was kind to a white woman. So he should be ashamed of himself. I'm a good tipper too. I turned around and sat somewhere else, outside the restaurant. Please teach your staff mannersand humility for other cultures.

This is the only real place to sit down for food at this airport. The food and drinks on the menu were varied and typical of bar fare. The lager on tap and fish chips I had were fairly good. This is a very casual place where you seat yourself, whichcould lead to a hectic environment if it?s busy. The service I had was just acceptable and that?s about it.
