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.

    Ca'Dario is a neighborhood favorite -- we love the friendly service and cheerful atmosphere. Last night's pizza and pasta did not disappoint. Everything was fresh and tasty.

    We were disappointed with our experience at Ca’Dario in Goleta. Despite having a reservation and arriving on time, the hostess greeted us with an unwelcoming attitude. We were seated in the middle of the noisy room near the cooking area, making it difficult to hold a conversation. When we requested a quieter table, the waitress tried to assist, but the hostess repeatedly told us how busy they were—even though there were more staff than customers—and refused to accommodate us. We regularly enjoy the Montecito and Santa Barbara locations for their excellent service and food, but this Goleta experience fell short. Unfortunately, we will not be returning to this location.

    Ca Dario Goleta is always good. Food is consistently good and very flavorful. Pastas and Pizzas are outstanding. Great ambiance inside.

    Our dinner last night at Ca Dario in Goleta was awesome. The food was great, the back outdoor area was very nice, and the service was wonderful. Maddy, our server, was awesome!
