Ca'Dario - Goleta

There is a lot of seating available at this restaurant, with various eating areas divided off. The atmosphere is busy and contemporary. The clam and pasta dish was underwhelming, lacking flavor or a wine sauce. It was essentially just clams and pasta soaked in clam juice. The meatballs were slightly dry. The Caesar salad was crispy, but missing anchovies. They have a good selection of wines and a great team providing service. The pizza dough was fantastic, but needed more sauce to complement the thick mozzarella.

Great atmosphere, full of activity. Loves the open kitchen and friendly staff. Robust menu of thought-out curls, appetizers and desserts. Savory antipasto, juicy halibutt, crispy thin-crusted pizza and kissed ravioli. The Clay Pot chicken and the lasagna are also excellent.

The restaurant appears nice. The chicken rotisserie was cooked very dry for my friend, making it inedible, but the owner removed it from the bill. The service was good, the ambiance was beautiful, and it was cool to watch the cooks prepare the food in front of you. It was quiet and there was no loud screaming. I plan on coming back to try more dishes in the future.

We love this Italian restaurant near UCSB! Eating here is very authentic, service is also good....

This is our first time in this Italian restaurant. It had a nice ambience. It had outdoor seating; but it was cool especially during dinner, so we sat inside had a view of the open cooking area. Our server was very nice and she spoke Italian with the other staff who gave the place an authentic atmosphere. They had good wine selection, although on the expensive side also for a glass of wine. We enjoyed our appetizers, Entrees and Dessert.
