Great time here. Food is high quality and a great price for montecito/SB area. Highly recommend the eggs benedict with their amazing hollandaise sauce and also the muscles and clams!

There are no photos of the food, because everything was so delicious everyone jumped right in. We started with the white asparagus, wrapped in pancetta-and it was so good we ordered another one! If you are getting one thing there GET THAT!!! We also had pasta, the sole, roasted chicken, and squash blossoms-which were all delicious. This place has a fun indoor outdoor feel and is super cozy, and transports you to an ambiance that feels like it could be in Italy. The staff worked above and beyond to make sure we were accommodated and had everything we needed. This is one of the staples of coast village road!

A lovely restaurant for an Italian meal - can be casual or very elegant. Food is delicious, our waiter was charming, fun, funny without being intrusive. One of our guests wanted something simple - Cacio e Pepe - which was not listed on the menu, but the waiter happily asked the chef to make the dish for her. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Special night out with good friends and Ca'Dario is just quite simply the best spot on Coast Village Road. Time and again they serve up amazing Italian food with the best service. Fernando the GM is excellent and has the best staff - Marco / Vuk / Dubra....and the list goes on and on! Ca'Dario is quite simply one of my top 3 favorite restaurants in SB/Montecito!

Absolutely delicious pizza, hands down! The spinach salad, calamari (didn't there used to be little shrimps in it?) and carpaccio were all tasty except the carpaccio needs some work. Love the wine list and Al fresco seating?
Clean and nice place. The food wasn't as good as the reviews state. The risotto seafood was different and bland tasting . The pizza was dry but the pasta was good . The dessert was excellent . I ordered tiramisu and panna cotta . The waiters were very nice and helpful !

I think servers could be more friendly. They didn't interact with us too much besides taking our order and bring our food and check. Maybe smile and act like you want to be there.

Unbelievably fantastic! AS ALWAYS! I dine here often, and also all over at other restaurants. This is truly my favorite restaurant in the Santa Barbara area. The original location in downtown SB is awesome too! Incredible on EVERY level- food, service, ambiance—!
Great Italian food in the heart of Montecito. We enjoyed sitting in the warm parklet on a cold rainy night. The wine by the glass selection is extensive and our server Marko was terrific. My partner had the linguine and clams that was a huge portion and very enjoyable. I had the roasted half chicken that came with several sides and was moist and flavorful.. The salads were great and the zuccuchini blossoms a must. Everything was perfect and will return soon for sure.

I went here on a Monday night for dinner. It was delicious. I had two dishes. The 20oz ribeye and the fusilli pasta with sausage (a special at the time). I like this location because it has a little more space than the Victoria street location. It was a nice ambiance, especially if you're seated outside. The service is what really makes this place shine. They are so attentive, nice, and genuinely knowledgeable about the entire menu. They make recommendations and even go above and beyond to make special little modifications based on your preferred tastes. I can't express how phenomenal the staff was. I have no complaints about any part of this dining experience. A well deserved 5/5.
An incredibly delicious meal at CaDario last night! Everything was perfection, especially the stuffed zucchini flowers, homemade ravioli, and the fresh branzino. We appreciated our server Marco wine suggestions and the friendly service from their wonderful team!

Lovely service and delicious food. Our waitress was more attentive than my own mother, and that's saying something! If you're looking to impress, yourself or others, this place you are looking for.
