    Delicious food from start to finish! Ordered the mussels and Caesar salad for appetizers. I had the lamb chops with a small portion of rigatoni pasta and my husband and gnocchi with shrimp. Everything was so delicious. Great decision having my birthday dinner here while in Santa Barbara.

    Perfect and delicious. We shared the tuna cones (a standout) Caesar salad and Rigatoni. I wanted to lick the plate when I was done.
