Bea's was where our family went for the best omelettes ever! They were incredibly fluffy and flavorful. The place was so warm and welcoming. Just like its owner, Bea. We will always remember Bea's for great food and family. Thank you, Bea!
Very nice dining experience. We go often with our family. Good food and good service.

very good food but staff needs to keep up on water and not leave people on hold for more than 60 seconds.
I have been a good customer of Canton for years and welcomed them back with great anticipation....I gave them 6 tries and was dissapointed with all. The last and final time I was sick all night after eating the stuff they pass off as Chinese Cuisine. I will never eat there again.

One of the few restaurants in town that has class, serves excellant specialty cuisines and has a large selection of wines. Beautiful Ocean view with the pier lights shining on the oceanic scene.
Ive worked at enough restaurants by now to know what the job is like on the inside (READ: I recognize stale food and health hazards). The vegetables looked like they were from the previous night and had been refried, the smell of the food was unappetizing and the meat simply unedible. My friend orde...
The food was completely bland and disgusting. The eggflower soup tasted like water. The orange chicken came with the sauce on the side. The sauce was flavorless, and the chicken (along with the veggies it came with) tasted like they were fried in oil that had not been changed in some time. I work...
Quite possibly one of the friendliest and tastiest Chinese restaurants in Santa Cruz, the Pearl Chinese restaurant was tragically closed in July 2005. Known for its great deals on delicious chinese food, the Pearl was a neighborhood meeting place with a great staff and friendly owners. Although they...
AWESOME
Excellent food. Fresh and delicious. The space is rather small and usually quite crowded, but the service is stellar. All of their dishes are worth trying out, but make sure you get the lemon chicken and the Mongolian barbecue sometime. Their sweet and sour pork is one of the best around.
China Station serves somewhat dull Chinese food that is uninventive but serviceable. The good thing is that everything tastes quite fresh and feels clean. The bad thing is that everything lacks the intense flavor Chinese food is known for. It's best for delivery, especially if you live on campus....
I loved the food there and the waitress was very friendly. The chicken chow mein was the best i have had in santa cruz.
El Palomar is absolutely the place to go when you're in Santa Cruz. The food is excellently flavored with substantial portions. There is an extensive menu including fresh fish, chicken, vegitarian dishes, and the best carne asada I've ever tasted! They also have a full bar open all day and two in th...
I just had there food for the first time and I must say, it just wasn't very good. The tofu didn't have any flavor and the wontons were chewy at the center.
Great lunch place. Great beef stew. Go there.
