Reviews for Trattoria Vittoria in Santa Barbara, CA
Owned by the Morosin Familia of Santa Barbara's Beloved Italian-Greek Deli of many years ~ Trattoria Vittoria carries on now... for many years now as well, their Italian Tradition of Great Italian Food and a well-stocked beautiful bar. You will want toarrive early and have Local Legend Barman Tony get you a beverage and be prepared for his snappy banter, a lovely longtime localguy. Another personal favorite at Trattoria ~ you'll be treated to a Classic film always playing from Turner Classic Movies ala' Sinatra to Bogart & Bacall. As a 40 year local ~ Highly Recommend !!

I?m so sad to review this poorly ???? I love this restaurant so much. It?s me and my husband?s typical date night spot when we... visit downtown SB. Last Saturday (2 nights ago) he and I had dinner there and we ordered the pasta alle vongole (spaghetti andclams) and another shellfish entree, which consisted of pasta and various fish. There was a single clam in the whole thing thatlooked like it was bad so we set it aside, albeit stupidly and continued eating because everything tasted fine. We both woke upthis morning so incredibly ill that we needed to go to urgent care. I was told by a doctor that we had food poisoning. Thedoctor let us know that food poisoning can manifest days after consuming tainted food and so we concluded that it was likely dueto our special dinner on Saturday, as we had nothing out of the ordinary the rest of the days, and most of it was prepared by meas I am a home chef. Again, I hate to review this restaurant terribly as I have had nothing but good experiences here every timeI?ve come in the past. I?m so sad that it is very likely that we?ll never frequent this restaurant again. If you do happen tocome to this restaurant, perhaps stay away from any shellfish menu items. Read more
The Bartender could NOT make a fancy Martini to save his life!! The Polish Server ( looks just like the Polish Worker in Under... the Tuscan Sun Movie, was not very experienced, the food was ok. It's was NOT about the money, it was about the experience!! Ireview Restaurants from all over the World that I visit!! Read more
Amazingly authentic Italian cuisine! Inside and outside dining available. Full bar.
This place feels a little more cozy and casual, making it a good place for couples young and old. Suitable for both friendly and... romantic dates, and even family gatherings. Of all Italian restaurants I've been to in SB, this one is my favorite in terms offood. Their lasagna and tagliatelle were amazing. Update: Tried their pork chop and tiramisu, and both were superb, too. Read more
Excellent Italian food! Great service, the Calamari was delicious, and the Dessert was so good.
This was my first time in this restaurant and I loved it throoughly. It's a great experience for Italian food. The ravioli was... too good and so was the pasta. And the gelato literally watered my mouth as soon as it was served. I probably would love to gothere again and again. Read more
Excellent home-style Italian food, very reasonably priced as portions are large. And very friendly staff, highly recommend!
