Sotola Bar & Grill is located at the corner of the Esplanade in Capitola Village overlooking the beautiful Capitola beach with stunning views of the Pacific Ocean. We have two patios to soak in the sun and enjoy the stunning views.

Sotola Bar & Grill is a full-service lunch and dinner farm to table restaurant that is committed to supporting local farmers and fisheries by sustainably sourcing the best local ingredients. We bring fresh local flavor directly to your table in an environment that’s fun and welcoming but entirely unique to Capitola/Santa Cruz.

We are “family” owned and operated with long time roots in Santa Cruz and Capitola. We own other iconic restaurants and bars in the area: Zelda’s, The Point and Ideal Bar & Grill. We are committed to give you a different and elevated dining experience that we feel makes us unique. We value the “experience” of dining at a beachfront restaurant that includes amazing food, distinctive and creative cocktails and friendly professional service.

With deep roots in our community, we support our neighbors and farmers by sustainably sourcing the best local ingredients. We bring that fresh, local flavor you’re looking for directly to your table in an enviroment that’s fun and welcoming but entirly unique to Santa Cruz.
