Santa Maria Valley is currently hosting its annual Restaurant Month, featuring Dine Out Santa Maria Style and the Craft Cocktail Contest. From now until February 9, visitors can enjoy special menus and unique cocktails at some of the region’s most iconic restaurants. The event showcases the diversity of cuisines in the area beyond just Santa Maria Style barbecue.
Participating restaurants include Huckleberry’s, Cool Hand Luke’s, A Mi Manera Mexican Cuisine, Capuno’s Lutong Bahay, Maya Mexican Restaurant, and more. The Craft Cocktail Contest, now in its sixth year, allows patrons to explore the thriving bar and brewery scene in Santa Maria Valley. Popular establishments like Cielito Lindo Mexican Grill, Naughty Oak Brewing Co, and others are competing to create the most delicious and innovative cocktails.
Visitors are encouraged to share their experiences on social media using the hashtags #SMVDineOut and #SMVCraftCocktail. The People’s Choice Winner of the Craft Cocktail Contest will be determined by votes from these posts. Jennifer Harrison, Vice President of Marketing & Communications at the Santa Maria Valley Chamber, emphasizes the importance of supporting local businesses and making the most out of a post-holiday vacation on the California Central Coast.
