This restaurant is so pretty and we loved our waitress. We went on Sat night and dined outside. Food was delicious and we did not wait long at all. I was shocked at the bad review I had read earlier-I'm glad I didn't listen to it. We will go back next time we are in town. Bar is very lively, but the outdoor seating is pretty and quiet. My mojito was one of the best I have ever had!
Daniel was our outstanding server and took very good care of us. The manager also stopped by our table to check on our experience. That's the sign of a well-run establishment, which we appreciate. We are regular patrons of Local Montecito and have not had a bad experience. We recommend it highly.
Local is one of our favorite places in Montecito, The food service and atmosphere are always good.
