Convivo is a Santa Barbara restaurant and bar with an Italian soul. Chef-Owner Peter McNee's food is best described as ‘Nomad Italian’. It strays from the standard or traditional Italian, sourcing inspiration from many other cultures’ cooking but its soul is thoroughly Italian. The ever-changing menu includes small plates, housemade pasta, wood-fired pizza, rotisserie chicken, fresh seafood and steaks served family-style. McNee’s all-star supplier network provides the freshest produce and local seafood the region is famous for. Inspired by the bounty of the sea, the lush farms and abundant vineyards nearby and the cooking methods of Italy, Convivo is a festive gathering place for locals and visitors alike inside the newly-restored Santa Barbara Inn.

    One of the best Italian restaurants in the central coast vicinity. Highly recommended and reservations a must. The best eggplant parmesan and one of made like cannoli instead of slices. Not on the menu, but made to order is the best carbonara Italiano around.

    This is our second visit to The Stonehouse Restaurant. It was equally as delightful as it was the first time. The facility is romantic and gorgeous, the service outstanding and the cuisine out of this world. Tonight my husband and I went there to celebrate our 52nd anniversary. What a wonderful way it was to celebrate our special occasion. We can’t wait to return once again!

    Sat outside in the patio, great seating. Noise level very low; could sit and talk with family without difficulty. Service excellent, very attentive. The food took a little longer than expected to be served. Good quality made up for it. Highly recommend this retaurant to others.
