15 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Montecito

“We just came back from Europe last July. We dined in The Ledbury by Chef Brett Graham, and at The Dorchester by Alain Ducasse, also at four different Michelin Star restaurants in Montpellier, and finally at Bistrot64 by Chef Giacomo Zezza and La Pergola by Chef Heinz Beck in Rome. I am not listing all these restaurants to brag but just to make the readers aware that I am a food enhusiast (in my opinion). Dining at Caruso’s again, my impression? The over-all experience was SUPERB! It was really a THREE-Michelin Star experience! Whenever we dine in these kinds of restaurants, I am always searching for the surprise effect in my palate. One of my favorite movies is the cartoon about a Rat Chef, Ratatouille, when he was describing the mélange of food in his palate and fireworks appeared in his mind, and when the scary critic was brought back to his childhood after he had the first bite of this simple peasant dish ratatouille, those are some scenes that come to mind. The meals are like that in Caruso, they are exceptional! Of course, I have to mention the impeccable service of everybody particularly of our main waiter Alejandro and his assistant Ana, and the Sommelier of the night, forgot his name but he looks like Tom Cruise. And the ambiance? Oh, our view was the beautiful pink sunset across the Pacific and the gentle waves of the ocean. Caruso should have attained the Three Michelin Star status already!“

“The setting here is stunning, the hotel and facilities are outstanding, and the restaurants are exceptional.

But what really makes this place so special and sets it apart is the attention to detail of the staff and the warmth and depth of their hospitality. Everyone is authentic, and their sincerity and care create an atmosphere that feels both luxurious and deeply personal.“

“Server at the restaurant was extremely rude. Not a big option of choices for food with people who have fish and shellfish allergies so don't go there to eat

Dietary restrictions: None they cross-contaminate everything so if you have allergies, do not visit“

“We had an amazing brunch at Jeannine’s! Our Havana latte was delicious! We tried Santa Barbara scrambled, tri tip sandwich, avocado toast and tuna melt sandwich were all good! We also had the coconut pineapple scone — best scone I’ve ever had. Service was excellent as well. I highly recommend this restaurant 👍🏽👍🏽“

“Wonderful French pastries in California with beautiful setting.“

“We love LOCAL and go often. We were surprised of the change of menu and missed the fabulous frites ( those this visit were too thick, less crispy) and a few other dishes ( homemade pasta in particular) that we so enjoy. Great service at the bar. The new bar server, young woman, was really attentive!“

“Super friendly and helpful service. Treated myself for my bday and ordered a shake. Forgot the exact names but got half dark chocolate and chocolate milk chip. I asked the server what are the most chocolatey flavors. I live in OC but hope to comeback for this someday.“

“Excellent wine tasting experience, lots of history . The wine consultant was very friendly. I will come again and reccomend.“

“A very special place. My children went there everyday after school. When they come home now one of their first stops is Wine and Cheese. It was a wonderful event today. Thank you for all you do for this community �“

“Excellent quality and service“

“I had the pleasure of dining at The Revere Room for their Christmas Day Four-Course Prix-Fixe Menu, and it was truly an exceptional experience from start to finish. The flavor combinations, presentation, and overall taste of every dish made my holiday even brighter.

What stood out even more than the amazing food was the incredible staff.

First, Vicente was the star of the evening—an outstanding server who greeted me with such warmth, it felt like I was a guest in his home. His detailed descriptions of the dishes, thoughtful drink recommendations, and overall positive energy set the tone for a fantastic meal.

Next, JJ delivered the food with speed and precision, offering helpful guidance on the tasting order to ensure I got the most out of each dish.

Rounding out the team was Asher, seamlessly managing multiple tables with efficiency and grace.

This level of teamwork is clearly a reflection of exceptional leadership, and that brings me to Mr. Arturo, the Big Boss. Arturo’s passion for hospitality shines through in everything he does. With a wealth of experience in the restaurant industry and as a standout hotel school graduate, he was actively involved throughout the evening—checking in with customers, directing staff, and anticipating needs before they even arose. He even bussed tables, delivered food, and took drink orders to ensure no table went unnoticed in the packed dining room.

If you’re considering dining here, I cannot recommend The Revere Room enough, especially for a special Prix-Fixe event. The combination of exquisite food, outstanding service, and a welcoming atmosphere is truly unparalleled. 10/10 experience!“

“I wish I could give 10 stars! Starting with the Host - so good, so professional, perfectly dressed... made me feel like a celebrity. Wait staff provided the perfect amount of attention. They even made us a special dish not on the menu. Atmosphere- I felt like I was in my best friends kitchen but at the same time looking around the room feeling like I might not be cool enough to be here!“

“Classic steakhouse with great ambiance and food. The staff provided top notch service and made the dining experience exceptional. Our party of four tried many menu options and found the meatball appetizer and tenderloin steak especially delicious. The truffled potatoes au gratin was also good. We highly recommend this beautiful restaurant .“
