Ca' Dario Cucina Italiana is an offshoot of the popular Ca' Dario Italian restaurant in downtown Santa Barbara. This new restaurant in Goleta serves pizzas and paninis in addition to hearty pasta and meat dishes. The addition of a fryer in the open kitchen means they are also able to serve a few new dishes, like frittura mista, a mix of flash fried calamari, shrimp and scallops. Pull up a seat in the spacious dining room and watch the cooks at work during lunch or dinner. Prices are slightly lower than they are downtown, and there is significantly more parking.
