Alcazar is one of Santa Barbara's oldest (and most delicious) tapas bars. Tucked in an unassuming strip of shops on the Mesa, this bar and restaurant has a cozy, romantic atmosphere that you might not expect. Dark lighting and intimate booths are the perfect setting for a night out, and vintage movies are projected on the wall behind the bar. The cocktails here are excellent - ranging from coconut mojitos made with the freshest ingredients to classic margaritas and even sangria. Their tapas menu makes for perfect pairing and share. Try the tortilla espanola or bacon-wrapped dates. Free parking both in front and behind the building. Happy hour lasts all night on Mondays and Wednesdays.
