Places to visit around UCSB?

<p>I'm going down to UC Santa Barbara next weekend for my friend's graduation. Is there anywhere I definitely should see? Also, is there a good restaurant somewhere I can go to for dinner? Thanks!</p>

<p>state street....they have all kinds of restaurants too</p>

<p>Haha yeah everyone's been telling me state street. Any good restaurants you specifically like?</p>

<p>Pascuccis! Italian food, very good and affordable</p>

<p>There's also a good sushi place on the corner near Pascuccis, if you like sushi it's good too.</p>

<p>Make a stop by the Santa Barbara zoo. It's a small zoo but very charming. Check out Mission Santa Barbara, one of the most impressive Spanish missions in California. Take a hike along the Santa Ynez mountains. Take a walk down State Street to the Stearns Wharf pier. Walk down the beach in Isla Vista and say hi to the bums. Hope you have fun!</p>
