Anything grilled is "divine" and the rest of the menu is "delectable" at the "charming" Italian in Santa Barbara known for its "excellent" execution of "simple" pasta, meats and other classics plus a "fantastic" wine list with many available by the glass; it's a local "favorite", so reservations are a must.

We are delighted to have added additional outdoor seating but Santa Barbara nights are chilly so bring a sweater or light jacket!Fresh, local ingredients, prepared with care. Excellent wines that reflect the quality and character of our region and work in concert with the cuisine. Warm, inviting ambiance, service at a relaxed, leisurely pace. Santa Barbara ‘Wine Country Cuisine’ means we source our ingredients using an ‘as-fresh-and-as-local-as-possible’ approach, with fish from the Santa Barbara Channel and produce from the surrounding countryside. We then take into account how these flavors can be presented in concert with our local wines. We believe you’ll taste the difference. Bon Appètit!

    Consistently great food. We opted to forgo some of our regular favorites and tried some new dishes -- the Chicken Saag and the Fish Moilsee -- and both were excellent.

    This is a true gem. Food is outstanding. It draws a more local crowd than the downtown restaurants. We had eggplant parmigiana and salmon piccata both of which were truly excellent. Portions are generous. Fish was probably 6oz, a large fillet. Don’t let the fact it is in a hotel discourage you, this place is with driving to. I’d definitely recommend it. We also had a couple drinks during happy hour. Drinks were very good as well and they gave some bread and tapenade with them.

    We started our meal with excellent cocktails. Well-made and delicious. I had the kale salad as an entree. The dressing was so good. My husband had the salmon. Very moist and the accompaniments were interesting and tasty. Josiah was our very accommodating waiter. Nothing we asked was too much. He even had an adffogato concocted for our dessert. The restaurant is bright and airy with a fun ambiance.
