Restaurants in Montecito

“Came here with the wife to celebrate our 10 year anniversary.
The food was great and we left so full, the atmosphere was amazing and the service was incredible.
It was a memorable experience and we will try to come back in the future.”

“A truly special experience for our group of friends. From the flavors to exceptional staff and service, they made it a meal to remember. We ordered a la carte and shared, can't go wrong with anything on the menu. We sat outside and were cozy under the heat the whole evening, they provide blankets if needed. The hotel grounds are beautiful to enjoy as well.”

“The trick is to just go here and get a drink and enjoy the view. That way you can get out of there and still have some money in your bank account! If you want more stuff, you’re in a fancy place and you’re gonna pay fancy prices and that’s OK just be prepared. This stretch of beach used to be one of the most quiet private stretches of beach in Santa Barbara but the hotel really changed the vibe. It’s OK it just part of life. Nothing stays the same so you might as well. Enjoy the fact that you can have a drink with a really nice view. He used to have to bring your own wine and blanket and it was awesome but it’s fine like this too. There are other secret beaches. You can find them if you look.”

“Everything we got was absolutely delicious. The lemon poppyseed breakfast was probably the winner. The huevos rancheros was so yummy and the grilled cheese with avocado was perfect as well. Definitely a bit expensive, but we definitely recommend this spot for how delicious it was and the great service!!!”

“Not your typical hotel bar. BEAUTIFUL space, comfortable and working to create a great experience for everyone. Innovative menu, knowledgeable staff who are very friendly. Great job, I'll be back”

“Wonderful French pastries in California with beautiful setting.”

“Ca'Dario was a delightful experience. High quality Italian cuisine marked by every dish excellently flavored. Antonio, our server, was very accommodating and pleasant. Reasonable pricing”

“A very special place. My children went there everyday after school. When they come home now one of their first stops is Wine and Cheese. It was a wonderful event today. Thank you for all you do for this community �”

“A wonderful new addition that’s truly raising the bar for dining in Santa Barbara. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with a warm welcome and the host had clearly read our anniversary note and offered thoughtful congratulations.

Our server was prompt, knowledgeable, and made excellent recommendations. The cocktail list was both fun and inventive. I also noticed another table struggling a bit with the dim lighting, and before they even had to ask, the team proactively brought over brighter lamps. This was a small gesture that spoke volumes about their attentiveness.

The food was outstanding. Highlights included the spiny lobster, shelling beans, salmon, and steak which were all beautifully executed. The sourdough ice cream was on another level and a perfect ending to the meal.

If this is how this newly opened restaurant is operating, the sky truly is the limit.”

“Best smoothies and juices ever!!!”

“Thank you for making my wife's birthday such a great experience. Your establishment became the back drop for a generational first, but definitely won't be a last.
Thank you.”

“We love this restaurant. it has been awhile since we were here however it meet all my expectations. The food was great our server was helpful and attentive. Great Italian food! Good wine selection. Dessert was awesome, Tiramsu.”

“A wonderful selection and great for parties ✨”

“We went to the speakeasy for the first time last night. We tried to get in during the holidays, but it was just so booked up. We have eaten at the plow Angel, many times but had never been to the new speakeasy. It is so cool. It's got a super awesome vibe. The food is amazing. It is a casual menu with specials on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday nights. Our service was excellent. Will the bartender is so charming and our server May (spelling?) was adorable. It was a very slow night for them and we had the best booth in the house. The piano player was amazing. Played a variety of songs. Because it wasn't busy, It seemed very quiet in there, but I don't know how it is when it's full. We loved the thousands of hearts hanging from the ceiling. We will hundred percent be going back soon.”

“Excellent tiny ice cream place in Montecito.
They have a couple of dozen flavors (no coffee sigh). I really liked the dark chocolate (but only if you are a lover of bitter dark chocolate). The portions are large and the quality is excellent.
Worth a stop.”

“Pavilions bakery in Montecito is the only bakery I will go to for a birthday cake!!! The cakes are decorated beautifully by an artist!! I met her!! They are also all delicious!!! Every time I bring one of these cakes to a birthday party everyone wants to know where I got it!! Always get compliments!!”

“Excellent quality and service”

“The Calamari, Brussel Sprouts and Short Ribs were the tables favs. The brownie Sundae was a happy nostalgic treat. I love that you're able to choose both vanilla and chocolate or just one flavor if you'd like. Renee and Christina gave exceptional service. Would absolutely return. Thanks for making our birthday celebration special.”

“Thank you Larry and the Team at Lucky's for making accommodations for us this past weekend. We value our partnership and am proud to support each other.

“Very nice service and food. It was amazing and I really recommend the curry chicken of you like spicy food :). The restaurant is located right next to the highway and the door dash order screen kept beeping and it took them a long time to turn it off.”
