Reviews for Trattoria Uliveto in Orcutt, CA

Came in for a drink and some food and the bartender with red/burgundy hair was rude. She wasn?t making eye contact, didn?t give... us a menu even though the one?s sitting close to us were given one, took a seed out of the lime with her long finger nail, andgave us the wrong bill. I expected to come and have a nice evening with my friend and this employee just made me feel upset. Iexpected better service from this place. I have come here several times and the service has gone down. Read more

Food is great. Main disappointment was that the waitress Jennifer was not giving good service. I have been here before and I... know how big the serving of one of the ravioli dishes is. I asked for 2 servings and I was met with shocked eyes as if I wassure if I wanted 2 servings. I was 100% sure I wanted the 2 servings and she made me feel uncomfortable. I told her I wanted the2 servings and mentioned it 3 times but she redirected my request saying "are you sure", "how about you wait until you are donewith one", "I think it's too much at once". Why question the customer on his/her request. I was going to pay for what I wanted.Rather than offering me the food I wanted, every time she came around she asked me if I wanted a drink. This occured 4 times. Itfelt like I was at a bar being offered drinks. I came here to have a nice dinner with a friend and she just totally made me feeluncomfortable. In the end I did not have my second serving of ravioli. I felt judged as if I eat too much or shouldn't eat toomuch. I like the food and when I come, which is not often, I want to enjoy it, not be judged for how much I eat. The waitressesand waiters need to make the customers feel comfortable when they come to have a nice meal. I'm very disappointed with theservice. Read more

Great food and service. Please visit, this is a must try place. Uliveto has a great atmosphere as well as great Italian food.... One of my favorites. I want to let everybody know, I frequent this place often. I try different dishes all the time. The food issome of the very best Italian food I've had. If you are close to this place please stop by you will not be disappointed. Thereis also a reason I go by, his name is Peter, the bartender is absolutely a great time. Ask for him and tell him Coker sent you.On a new note if you like black olives you wont find them here. If you like saffire gin you wont find it here also. Just go inand you will have a good time.

Excellent choice for Italian food! We had the Fettuccine Bolognese and the Involtini di Melanzana(Eggplant) and both were... delicious! We started with a Clam Chowder that was also great. Our server, Jennifer, was fantastic as well! Very personable andfriendly, and knowledgeable! Will definitely return and will be asking for Jennifer! Definitely would recommend this restaurant!

Always warm and cozy home feel. Charming owner that always greets you with a smile.

This place is great! The main room was a bit loud (we got there at 7:30) but the bar and back room were quieter so we asked to... be moved there. The service was second to none, everybody was kind and did their jobs very well. I'll be going backfrequently, asking for the back room when I make my reservation. Read more

The sauce on the Linguini Crostacei was amazing! Very good dish. I loved the filling inside the Ravioli Di Zucca, however the... pasta was cooked less than Al Dente and was a little hard, also too much pasta to filling ratio. And the sauce on the raviolididn?t have a lot of flavor but overly decent dish. The waitress was extremely friendly and we let her choose our dessert forus! It was also delicious. Would come back again! Read more
