Santa Barbara is a place people choose. Nobody ends up here by accident, and the same goes for the events — a wedding in the Santa Ynez Valley or a celebration in Montecito is usually the result of months of planning and a very particular vision. We're glad to be part of that.
What we bring is something guests genuinely don't expect. Every taco made to order in front of them, with original Kon-Tiki recipes and the island-inspired flavors that come from our Peruvian and Polynesian roots. Fresh ingredients, never frozen, cooked on site rather than trucked in finished.
It's your day. Your attention belongs on your guests, not on your catering company. We take care of the rest.

Wine Country, Coastline, and Everything Between
Santa Barbara County covers a lot of ground — the coast at Carpinteria, the hills above Montecito, the vineyards of Santa Ynez and Solvang. Most of the venues out here are outdoors, and that's where a taco cart genuinely belongs. No chafing dishes under a tent. Everything comes off the griddle the moment your guest asks for it.
We travel up regularly and plan the day around the drive, which means we arrive early, set up unhurried, and are completely ready before your first guest sees anything. Our carts come self-contained, so a full kitchen on site isn't a requirement.
From an intimate dinner of 40 to a celebration of several hundred, we scale with more carts and more crew — never with lower standards. Meat, seafood and vegan options so every guest is taken care of, and fifteen minutes after your event ends we're gone without a trace.
