- MMarcLos Angeles •5 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoThe food was awesome. Sea Bass (special) was amazing. The house salad was kinda bland. Could have pulled it out of a bag kinda thing. More veggies and variety would have been nice. A 4 on service because out server was very busy and our water glasses stayed empty for a bit. Would go back because the food (other than the salad) was extraordinary.More infoOlio e Limone RistorantePrice: Very Expensive• Italian• Santa Barbara•4.7

- LLisaCalifornia Central Coast •52 reviews5.0Dined on Oct 13, 2024The Caesar Salad was fresh and the dressing was a tasty surprise. The Veal Milanese breading was crispy and paired nicely with the buttery, cheesy fettuccine. My friends both enjoyed their Spinach Ravioli and Pappardelle Vodka. Topped it off with us all sharing the Warm Lava Cake...delish!More infoChase RestaurantPrice: Moderate• Italian• Santa Barbara•4.1
