"Discover Santa Barbara’s coastal gem, offering a unique blend of authentic Mexican cuisine with a seaside twist. Nestled under historic archways and surrounded by hand-painted murals by the Mar Monte Hotel pool, Lido invites you to a relaxed yet elevated dining atmosphere. Enjoy expertly crafted dishes that marry traditional flavors with coastal ingredients, complemented by an innovative selection of agave-based spirits. Sip on bespoke margaritas and mezcal cocktails or refresh with our homemade agua frescas, all while soaking in the stunning beachfront views."

TGIF events are a great way to start the weekend in a fun and relaxing setting. At TGIF you will make new friends, catch up with existing friends, and get to know the local restaurants and bars. With no registration required, the events are open to Newcomers and graduates, and attendees can bring a friend along. Come join us, Newbies!

This is a pay-as-you-go event. Please note that tips are not included in the price of food and drinks. Kindly tip your servers and bartenders when you order food and/or drinks. (SBNC recommends tipping 20% or more). We want to leave a positive impression in the Community at all times and consistent with the Club’s values to treat everyone with respect.

To help us assure the best experience for all at our very well-attended TGIF events, please refrain from bringing pets and dogs (other than Service Animals).

Please note there is very limited parking on the street, but there is valet parking at the hotel or parking across the street at East Beach.
