    Paid premium price for a special Thanksgiving meal. Service was very good. Inside seating in a booth was quite noisy- had to raise our voices to be heard. First and second courses were very good, even excellent. However the Turkey main was terrible. For $110 each, we expected fresh turkey. Instead we received very thin slices of a turkey roll. The sides were good. BUT we were there for a turkey dinner on Thanksgiving. Definitely disappointed. Will not even eat the leftovers, it was that bad. I hope the owners read this and up their game for their turkey entree.

    We have been traveling to Montecito to meet a friend for Thanksgiving for 8 years and by far this was our first Thanksgiving at Ca Dario and the BEST! We had a table outside which was perfect and our server Dubravka with the help of a happy team was so wonderful,plus Dario was cooking with his fantastic team and what a amazing menu he made. We were so blessed with such a wonderful evening.
