    Fried zucchini blossoms
    Karen G.

    My dinner at Manifattura was probably the highlight of my stay in Santa Barbara. I started with the fried zucchini blossoms with a glass of white wine. The batter was crisp and light, and the ricotta filling nice and rich. My entree was the sacchetti which made its debut that night. They were stuffed with pork and ricotta, sauced with brown butter, sage, and vincotto, topped with cherries and hazelnuts. This was a delicious combination of flavors which went well with the Chianti. Excellent food and service.

    Great spot on State St! House-made pastas that change seasonally. They have a window from the exterior so you can see them hand making the pasta. We started with the focaccia and burrata which pair nicely together. Focaccia is a must get! Both of our pastas were delicious. You know it's good when they only have 4 entrees available and it is full on a Tuesday night. Check this spot out!

    Small space - definitely make a reservation ahead of time. Because of the demand, dining sessions are limited to 1h45m eating periods. Highly recommend the Foccacia as a starter and to sop up any leftover pasta sauce. The dishes are very rich and flavorful - my roomies and I shared the Cacio E Pepe, Pasta del Pizzaiolo, and Cappelletti.

    I felt like I stepped into a major city when I walked into this spot. For a second, I thought I was in Toronto or NYC, and then I looked outside and saw no snow. The star is not deducted for the pitless olives, but please leave the pits in the olives. Pizza bianca with the burrata is a beauty, get it. Cicoria e mele: Gorgeous salad, the walnuts and the date vinaigrette are art. Cacio e pepe: keep the pasta generic; the thickness of the one here outbalances the saltiness and creaminess, making a thinner noodle the perfect pairing. Tagliatelle: Teach the team to pronounce the pasta correctly, but beyond that, this dish is perfection. Egg-based pasta is hard to mess up, and with their meats and light sauce, this is an A+ dish. The desserts and wines are set up to succeed. Fix the Cacio e pepe, don't give me the "it's a Roman noodle" excuse, sometimes traditional thin tonnarelli is all you need. The dessert and the wine list are a beauty. Their lungo +. We had an 845 resy, service was rushed, but that's SB for you, their Franciacorta made up for it.

    Manifattura is a newer restaurant that just opened in November, and I recently went for a holiday, intimate dinner with friends. It already feels like a special neighborhood spot. The space has a warm, mid-century modern atmosphere that's cozy, relaxed, and thoughtfully designed. They focus on handmade pasta made fresh in-house and offer an all-Italian wine list. We started the evening with a brut rosé, and later enjoyed a hugo spritz, which was light, refreshing, and a perfect mid-meal drink. Our server was knowledgeable and gave us great recommendations throughout the night. To start, we shared the pizza bianca, a house-made focaccia with olive oil and a perfect sprinkle of sea salt. Simple, comforting, and very well executed. The buratta pugliese, was incredibly creamy and paired beautifully with the focaccia. The cicoria e mele was a standout. I love a good radicchio salad, and this one with local granny smith apples, pecorino, walnuts, and date vinaigrette was perfectly balanced. We also ordered the zucchini blossoms, filled with ricotta cheese, light and crisp. For pasta, we shared dishes and appreciated the generous portions. The pasta del pizzaiolo (on the spicier side) and the tagliatelle were both excellent and clearly made with care. We didn't get to dessert since we were full and even had leftovers to take home. Service was attentive without being overbearing, and the owner stopped by our table a few times to check on us, which added a personal and welcoming touch. Overall, Manifattura is an ideal choice for a special dinner or an intimate night out with friends. Open Tuesday through Saturday from 5 to 9 pm and absolutely worth checking out. Reservations are a must. For parking, I recommend the nearby city paid lots. Lot #11 on Haley Street or Lot #12 on Gutierrez Street are both convenient options.

    Manifattura is the latest hot spot and sister restaurant to Aperitivo. It's a small space, so just be aware the seating is not very spacious. Despite that, it doesn't mean you'll have a bad experience here. This place is warm, intimate and inviting. I especially love the paper lantern lighting here. I felt transported to another place once I walked in. Erica was my waitress for the evening and she did a great job at explaining the menu. I started with the Hugo Spritzer. It was a little too sweet for me, but still a refreshing drink. They also offer a wine menu. For food, I ordered the house-made focaccia Romana. The bread was so good! It's topped with olive oil and sea salt. I loved how crusty it was, yet still remained soft and light. I chose to pair this with the Melanzane in Agrodolce, which is eggplant, sweet & sour tomatoes, ricotta salata and pine nuts. My only complaint about this dish is that it was too salty for me. The flavor was delicious, but could use less salt. I know when eggplant is prepared it's usually salted first to bring out the extra water. Aside from that, this dish was still flavorful and delicious! I love eggplant and would still order it again. For my main, I opted for the Tagliatelle Degli Umarelles. I can honestly say this pasta is hands down the best pasta I've ever had! It's full of comforting flavors that make you feel as if it was made by your Italian grandmother! No lie. I've never had a pasta dish like this one. The serving size is enough to share for two, or three. I was happy to take leftovers home. Overall, this is a great addition to downtown and it's good to see Aperitivo expand their restaurant.

    Affogato
    Ingrid V.

    Wonderful dinner! I recommend it if you are in the mood for Italian food. I absolutely love the team behind Manifattura and Aperitivo. Truly just amazing humans. I'm giving 4/5 stars because I do think there is some room for improvement. I wish I could give 4.5 stars. We went as a group of 6, they were so kind to accommodate us. We loved the space, the decor is so moody and feels very New York. They sat us right away and the service was really impressive (the owner cares so much and was checking in on us himself!). The starters were all so so so good. I was blown away by the olives and cheese and charcuterie and crackers and focaccia and meatballs. Everything was delicious, most amazing flavor and the olive oil was such good quality. Now for the pasta...we purposefully avoided one of the pastas because our friends recommended we skip it. We did two of the bolognese and two more pasta dishes. The bolognese was SPECTACULAR. I love the ratio of meat to pasta. The saltiness. It was the dish of the night. The cacio e pepe was borderline too salty - I personally couldn't eat it honestly. The pesto dish was fine. The dessert could use some love. The Affogato was tasty. We all loved it. But the cookies were not good - I'm sorry but the cookies stuck to my teeth and none of us liked them. The baba al rum but very strange - we were not into it at all. We all were disappointed by it sadly. I'd recommend skipping dessert all together. It is worth saying that when we left we went to aperitivo for a glass of wine because we wanted a good bottle of wine before calling it a night, they delivered!! I took photos but they are all half eaten so I'm only including decent pics.

    PASTA DEL PIZZAIOLO

    We went to Manifuturra for the first time last night after being longtime fans of Aperivito, and it absolutely did not disappoint. From the moment we walked in, everyone was incredibly friendly and welcoming. It's amazing what they've done with such a small space -- it feels warm, intentional, and special. We were there with a large group and were lucky enough to try pretty much everything on the menu, and honestly, everything is good. I could live off the focaccia and burrata alone -- truly incredible. Other standouts for me were the tagliatelle, cacio e pepe, cicoria e mele, scarpinocc alla zucca, the limoncello gelato, and the tiramisu. Daniel was an amazing server, and Andrea (the owner and sommelier) elevated the entire experience with the most incredible wine pairings throughout the night. If you're a foodie, this place is a must. We'll definitely be back. Pro tip - reservations are hard to get currently but give them a call if there isn't anything online or stop by without a reservation and they will add you to a walk in list. You might have to wait an hour or as a walk in so go grab a drink across the street while you wait and they will text you when your table is ready. It's worth the wait!

    Spicy pasta overall liked it. My son said the leftovers were bussin'
    Sylvia K.

    Overall a nice dining experience. Setting pretty, service excellent. I liked the food. Cacio de Pepe and radicchio salad very tasty. Meatballs I enjoyed. Ricotta dumplings not good. Pizza bianco was a focaccia which was tasty especially with eggplant sauce. Worth a try. Wish they had balsamic vinegar for my bread.

    Spritzes

    This place is definitely a treat especially mid week. The atmosphere is nicely decorated and the staff friendly and attentive. We were able to nab a reservation to try this new spot located on lower state. It was full and they were turning away walkins. They have wine and spritzes on the menu. Minimal options to buy wine by the glass, most you would have to buy the bottle. The Negroni is pretty strong and the Hugo spritz is light and refreshing. The pizza Bianca is a must have, some of the best focaccia bread that I have tasted. The burrata comes drizzled with olive oil that pairs well with the bread. The cacio e Pepe pasta was okay, felt that the noodles were undercooked. The patate croccanti is perfect for sharing and comes with an aioli. The must have dish there is the pesto vibrante. These are gnocchi dumplings smothered in the freshest basil sauce that you will taste. Overall, will be returning to try other items on the menu.

    Absolutely loved this place! The burrata was amazing and the Cacio de Pepe was perfect. The noodles were perfectly al dente and I'd honestly be happy to be smothered in that sauce any day. The restaurant itself is super aesthetic, cozy, and gave me total NY vibes. Service was not intrusive and she had everything timed well. Perfect spot for a date! The menu was simple but felt really well curated - you just know everything on it would be good. Ended the night with an affogato and have no complaints. This gave state street a much needed tasteful and sophisticated new spot to land for dinner.

The wines paired perfectly: bold, elegant Cabernet Sauvignons full of dark fruit and spice, and a crisp, refreshing Sauvignon Blanc that lit up our tasting. Every glass told the story of the Happy Canyon terroir and the Grassini family's dedication to sustainable, hands-on winemaking. With awards like Best Winery & Best Tasting Room (Santa Barbara Independent, seven years running) and recognition as the Santa Barbara Wine Auction's Honorary Winery, it's no wonder Grassini has become such a celebrated name.

The presentation and seasoning for the Santa Maria plate was just boring and lacking. We chose not to finish that plate as it was not real flavorful, nor interesting. The pork ribs (3/5) on the 2nd plate had really good seasoning and flavor, but should have been cooked longer. This was a pretty significant miss, as the ribs needed to cook at least another hour.

The service team was a strong 4 stars all night. The kitchen was maybe 3.5 stars.

First, Finch & Fork is essentially just the restaurant inside the Kimpton Canary Hotel. What I mean is that it's not a restaurant that happens to be inside of hotel property (think Caruso's). It's just where you eat as a hotel guest that is hungry for brunch. We had an 11:00 AM reservation, which I believe was the earliest brunch seating. The hotel lobby was packed and chaotic when we arrived. We checked in and sat down to wait, but while we were waiting, multiple other parties of two who checked in after us were seated first. Not a huge issue on its own, but not a great start. The Mother's Day brunch itself consisted of a buffet plus an entrée selection. The buffet had three main sections: seafood (oysters, shrimp, tuna poke), salads, and miscellaneous bites and desserts like deviled eggs, Italian wedding soup, and macarons. Honestly, the buffet felt more like cocktail hour appetizers at a wedding than a true luxury brunch spread. The entrées were fine. The service was fine. Nothing was bad, but nothing felt memorable or special either. The atmosphere was also extremely loud...noticeably so. What really dropped the rating for me was the value. For two people with no alcohol (just iced tea), the total came out to $264.60. That price was honestly shocking for what was offered. Nothing about the food, service, or atmosphere justified that kind of cost. As we were leaving, we noticed a Photo Booth setup and a bouquet-making station across the lobby. No one had mentioned either of these to us, and the bouquet station appeared unattended, so we weren't even sure whether it was included or an extra charge. Overall, I left feeling disappointed, especially because this was meant to be a special Mother's Day outing for my mom. If you're just looking for a casual hotel brunch/lunch/dinner, it's perfectly fine. But for a holiday brunch at this price point, I expected something much more polished, elevated, and memorable.
