Best Hot Spot Restaurants in Carpinteria

It is pricey, but it was by far the best brunch buffet menu we’ve ever enjoyed. Farm to table quality in tasty salads and roast vegetables. Nice charcuterie and cheese selection. Fresh baked breads and wonderful pastries. Not to mention the fresh seafood, and lamb or trip tip roasts for those who enjoy a heavier meal. Or if you like a more traditional breakfast, there is an omelette station and eggs benedict as well. Something to please everyone, and all of it delicious, served on a lovely patio with live music playing under the gorgeous oak tree below. A delightful brunch!

We recently celebrated our anniversary at Mastro’s in Thousand Oaks, and it was an absolutely exceptional experience from start to finish. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was elegant and inviting, setting the perfect tone for a special evening. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and made sure every detail was just right. The cocktails were expertly crafted, and the wine selection was impressive. For dinner, we indulged in the filet mignon, which was cooked to perfection, and the buttery lobster mashed potatoes were a decadent treat. Of course, we couldn’t leave without ordering the famous butter cake—an absolute must-try! The entire evening felt luxurious and celebratory, and we truly appreciated the impeccable service and attention to detail. If you’re looking for a place to celebrate a special occasion, Mastro’s in Thousand Oaks is the perfect choice. We’ll definitely be back!

Food is always good so is the service. Went for a Valentine’s Day dinner date and the owner was going around greeting guest and handing out roses…so sweet!

Outstanding!!! This is a locally owned French bistro with exceptional cuisine. It’s an excellent value too!

Lucky’s is our go-to restaurant for special occasions. We are never disappointed with the service or food. We especially enjoy the ambience and attentive waiters.
