What a wonderful evening! So delightful to have gone and enjoy authentic ingredients. Love the ambience and exceptional service all around. The complimentary bread with pesto sauce is tasty. Calamari was fresh and not over breaded just right. Had the fettuccine al tartufo/ truffle pasta that has been the most exceptional experience of pasta I've had, Life changing with the truffle. The pizza dough very good and the sauce as well. I felt that the tiramisu was the first time actually having a tiramisu. All authentic dishes, very happy to have gone and enjoy the Tre Lune experience. read more

Tre Lune - The spread - Italian Near Me - Montecito, California

While strolling in downtown Montecito we followed our noses. A delicious array of fresh bread and marinara filled the air. We followed the scents right into this lovely place. It's quintessential NY Italian eatery. Very friendly service and a large swath of delicious authentic Italian dishes to choose from. The marinara was sweet, tangy with a rich body of tomato. The fresh bread varieties were delicious. I especially loved the thin toasted bread sticks! I started with a bowl of pasta e fagioli. One of my go to appetizers. It was very hearty and tangy, reminded me of south Philky home cooking! My chicken cannelloni was perfectly aldente with a rich & creamy pink rosea sauce. I enjoyed immensely. The pasta print vera was on point. Simple yet delicious. The Tiramisu was perfect! Creamy, sweet but not too much and went down great with a nice Americano. The menu is so diverse so we'll be back ready to see what else I'm sure to love & rave about. Too bad we had a big lunch or a nice steak or veal shank may have been my go to! See you soon! read more

Another fabulous experience. Tre Lune has become my favorite restaurant in a city of amazing places. Always the very best, friendly and attentive service with superb food. I had today's special. A pan-seared pork chop in a mushroom gravy with potatoes and Brussels sprouts, with a consistently great Caesar salad. Can't wait to go back for my favorite Loster Linguine in a tomato sauce. Love sitting outside on a beautiful day, but it would be better without the clear plastic cocoon-like enclosure. Nevertheless read more

Beautiful restaurant with absolutely delicious food! Service is wonderful, they catered to your every need. The pasta was fantastic, as are the salads and mains. You simply can't go wrong with anything on their menu! The prices are well worth the splurge, giving the area I feel the price is portions are very fair and worthy. Highly recommended for a date night or a special occasion! read more

Tre Lune on Coast Village Road in Montecito is a classy Italian restaurant. I chose the Amalfi pasta which contained your lobster, mussels, scallops, and shrimp served over spinach fettuccine. Unfortunately I didn't think my food was that great. I feel like I've had better elsewhere. My seafood pasta actually tasted a little bit fishy like the fish had been sitting in it juices and was not properly rinsed even the wine was not that great. The service however was good despite the restaurant being busy and our waiter was entertaining. I did enjoy an old fashioned which was pretty good as well. I don't know necessarily if I would come back to Tre Lune, but maybe to try something different on the menu. We had high expectations for my dish but it was not very impressive. read more

So so so good. One of the best meals I have had in a long time. The service was top notch as well

I went here for lunch with my family. I got the gnocchi which was really good and very filling. The gnocchi was very big and the sauce was very creamy. It was a bit fatty for my liking but so if I were to come back I'd get something else. The service was great they would always check up on us regularly. They give you free bread with a balsamic which wasn't my favorite because i prefer just butter or oil. I'd recommend sitting outside cause the street view was beautiful, not busy at all. read more

The food was decent - quite overpriced. Got their: Burrata 2/5 - nothing exceptional Penne Alla Norma 4/5 - the sauce was great and so was the eggplant Tiramisu 4/5 - soft, flavorful and fluffy Service was good - we went 40 minutes before closing so service was a bit rushed. Great ambience; the interiors are very well done. Parking - free, right outside. Limited on the weekends. read more

Always an upscale place. Perfect for the Montecito crowd. Gotta order right and drink a bunch.

Great place. Really genuine experience as staff remembers details about my prior visits/ recognizes me, and I don't go all that often! That gnocchi is just unmatched.. melts in your mouth and the flavor is so rich. Love the focaccia bread in the basket, always asking for that one more than the other options in the assortment. Seating does feel a bit crammed which isn't the most pleasant, but it is a pretty small place that attracts a large crowd so what can you do! read more

Didn't know they had brunch and stopped in on a Sunday to be surprised to a great meal. They have indoor and outdoor seating with refills on coffee and street parking. Our table tried the huevos rancheros, Italian Benedict, and Coast Village omelet. We love each dish and took some home for leftovers because portions are generous. We were seated and served right away and I enjoyed looking at all the picture on the walls and feeling like I was in a wonderful old Italian restaurant. read more

Loved the entire experience! Celebrated my 21st birthday at tre lune and had an incredible dinner. From start to finish our waiter was lovely and the timing of everything was phenomenal. Felt so celebrated and the food reminded me of real Italy. The best Italian food I've had since being back from Rome. If you get the chance to go here I would 1000 percent recommend! read more

Underrated. Step off the Coastal Road in Monticieto right into little Italy. The ambiance is charming and quaint. The staff warm, professional and caring from the hostess to the wait staff. I was reticent to share the short version of a hard few weeks, after I was asked how I was doing. I waited a bit after the waiter asked, but I dared to share. The waiter was authentically warm and caring. He even comped my dessert to share my pain. Truly remarkable. Monticieto can have a snob factor, but this place imported the warmth of a true family run restaurant direct from Italy. Oh, the food, remarkably delicious. read more

Food and service was good. Very good assortment of bread. Went on a Monday night and it was packed so reservations is a must unless you want to sit outside on the sidewalk.

Came here for my friend's birthday. Service was more than attentive, helpful, and polite. Can't stress enough how great the staff were and how swiftly and unproblematic each course was. The food was eh. Nothing out of the ordinary, especially considering the prices. The gnocchi was good, but out of the 6 pastas we ordered, none were exceptional. Great table bread and pesto. The restaurant felt a little crowded and cluttered, maybe just due to the fact we were sat centered on the dining floor with ppl constantly moving around us. The decor was just somewhat hard to follow. Also the menu was super large; overwhelming. read more

This is officially my and my Partner's favorite restaurant in the Santa Barbara / Montecito area, and we don't even live locally as we drive all the way from LA county! Had our lunch here with my 6 other great friends because I wanted to share with them this great gem, all coming from LA and had a blast! At first, I was having difficulty with booking because two of my couple friends brought their fur babies with them. Shout out to Sophia for handling the situation and placed us in the patio area and everyone was happy including the fur babies! She's the best! Our servers Fidencio ( officially our favorite!) and Fernando are always very on point and very knowledgeable about everything in the menu and we loved their recommendations! Food was as always great and everyone was happy with their meals! Ambience is always great on a Sunny California Sunday! Parking is street parking and we had no problem with it. read more

Best Italian food in town, great atmosphere and a true locals pick. Great Salmon and Cioppino dishes

The food is always excellent, they have a nice fresh baked bread basket with homemade bread sticks and herb spread they greet you with. Always a nice touch. The menu selection is great and they never have any problems accommodating special requests. The wine list is well stocked to accommodate the menu. The service has never been less than stellar. In fact, if you're a regular there, you'll probably get the same servers over and over and they remember you. And we're not regulars regulars three or 45 times a year maybe but they always remember us makes you feel special. It's been a family favorite for decades. I didn't mention the desserts. They're pretty spectacular too. Their pizza is great. You can't go wrong with Tre Lune for any occasion, lunch or dinner. read more

We have a friend in the area who seems to know everyone in the local restaurants. We've visited Tre Lune a few times, and each time service has been relaxed and not-rushed. The food's been great each time. If you're looking for fresh and light (and cheese), the Burrata Alla Caprese is just that. If you want to share it, sharing is possible, but not necessary. *wink*. We haven't had a bad dish here. Most recently, we opted for dishes off the "Special" menu. They had a Fettuccine Stroganoff with steak, and we ordered a couple plates of those along with the short rib risotto. I stuck to the stroganoff, which was delicious. The steak was supposed to be medium, but some pieces were a bit more rare, which is fine with me (order to overcook because most places undercook). The sauce and noodles were comfort food goodness. Outside seating is pleasant and they have heaters for chilly days/evening. Inside is cozy and feels like you're dining in Italy with friends and family. read more

We've been going to Tre Lune since it opened. Been there 100 times and the only thing that there's more of... is those little chairs along the walls. Somehow what was once quant feels non-inclusive. If you're not on the wall, you're a nobody. Sometimes it's good, but more often lately, it's not. We probably won't be back. The food has fallen, the service is inattentive and the vibe is no longer warm and welcoming. The waiter we had seems to be of the Lucky's School of Arrogance - if you're not ordering drinks or multiple courses - you're well and truly ignored. Sometimes we like to go to our local and have a light meal, one course or so each. This is not the place any longer for that. read more

The highlight of our meal was the free bread and pesto. My cacio e pepe was drenched in sauce so bad I poured as much off onto my bread plate as I could. The pasta was not fresh pasta. This is a dish I always order in Italy and I was very disappointed. Service was fine but not impressive in any way. Will not return. read more

Enjoyed the ambiance and the bread/appetizer at Tre Luna. My husband's beef stroganoff was reportedly delicious. Unfortunately, my pasta and meatballs fell short--the meatballs were dry and lacked flavor. We also felt very rushed by our server, completing a pretty pricey meal in just over an hour. Overall, mixed feelings. read more

Found this place by recommendation from a friend and ended up loving it here. We stopped by as soon as they opened for an earlier lunch before heading home from our road trip. From the delicious menu offerings, to the ambiance of old Hollywood music, this restaurant has a lot of charm. The food: To start, you get a small bread basket and some crispy breadstick crackers to go with olive oil + balsamic vinegar and what seems like a house-made grassy pesto aioli. -Linguine del Marinaio: A lovely dish. I liked this one more than I expected and I think it was in part from the sauce. It was tomato based but more savory than your average pomodoro. I couldn't quite put my finger on it but there was extra depth to this sauce. However, I could see the giant chunks of garlic they cook into the sauce which was heavenly. Really good amount of seafood here. -Fettuccine Mare e Monti: A wider noodle than the linguine worked well with this sauce. You get some acidity from tomato but more creaminess than the linguine. Lobster meat was plentiful. Excellent choice. -Squid Ink Seafood Risotto: I can't remember the exact name of this dish on their specials menu, but it has a striking black color. The risotto is flavorful and there was plenty of the calamari and seafood mixed in. -Trout in Pesto Butter: This entree was also a special of the day. The fish was thin but cooked perfectly and I enjoyed the buttery sauce. I would prefer a "meatier" fish such as a halibut in this case, but that's just a preference. Comes with a small side of crispy potatoes and brussel sprouts. -Profiteroles: I ended up liking this more than expected. The order comes with 4 small pastry balls filled with an appropriate amount of cream and then dipped in a chocolate sauce. It's plated with whipped cream and fresh berries which were all sweet and complimented the profiteroles very well. The restaurant and parking: Our server was prompt and helpful. He was great with recommendations and making sure we had what we needed. The tables here are quite small for a group of 4, but he did a great job with clearing plates quickly and fitting everything together. We asked about the chili oil he brought us and were able to purchase a bottle to bring home! (It was delicious with the pasta) The restaurant is mid-sized and there is both indoor and outdoor seating available. Bathroom was cute and clean. We got lucky coming here early and managed to nab a parking spot immediately out front. There are spots all along the sidewalk area that seem to be shared with the neighboring businesses, but they fill up quickly so you may have to park further down and walk. Reservations may be a good idea for high traffic days. Overall: A more pricey meal, but we were very satisfied with all of our dishes. I can see why celebrities frequent this place (we actually saw Ellen at a table haha). If I lived in the area, I would definitely come for a nice occasion. Delicious! read more

Me and bestie (aka the person everyone assumes is my bf or husband which is as creepy as the people who think my son is my little brother or bf - funny no one ever assumes my female friends are my wife but hey! I'm either someone's much younger wife or a cougar whatevs) but WE, me and bff hit bad traffic on MDW on our way out to Los Olivos, so we stopped to do lunch at Tre Lune which proved to be exactly what was in the cards for us. I'd been wanting to try them for awhile now but we usually eat at other places on the block. It was mid day and perfectly pleasant. I wanted to sit indoors where most were outside so it nearly felt as though we'd reserved the entire place just for us for lunch. We had just about one of everything as per the usual at a new to us spot. Check out the pics and know you're pretty much good to go on the entire menu. I did a half salad, half pasta and we shared a pizza and tiramisu (maybe I ate the tiramisu all to myself, can't recall). My glass of red was great, didn't need a bottle mid day as bestie doesn't drink much at all. My cappuccino was also perf. Service was great! We typically split all meals as we did here and they mistakenly charged both of our cards the full amount then needed to reverse these and recharge. It wasn't a huge deal but a small little hiccup that they resolved on the spot after we pointed it out. Highly recommend! Perfect little date spot, solo meal, fam bam or girls trip spot for a tasty and fulfilling meal. Can't wait to swing in again soon. read more

Always a pleas to dine at Tre Lune. The atmosphere, the service and the food was top notch. Martin was a very helpful and kind server.

This made our Santa Barbara/Montecito visit so memorable. read more

Table for four, and it took three hours. 1. Service Dialed up, great smile... However, over three hours for our meal it was just too long. Many other tables and sat ordered, got their food and left during our time. This is happened a few times and it's such a bummer. 2. Food: sadly, The vegan lentil pasta dish was not good. I'll try to talk to them but there's no email on their website. Please consider changing it out for a simple puttanesca with garlic, olive oil Kalamata olives, some fresh tomatoes, fresh basil so many good options out there. Food - Amazing: The gnocchi with truffle was amazing. My friend had that. I wish I could've switched mine out. I had a few bites. It really was one of the best gnocchi I've ever had in my life. We really appreciate Tre Lune . We will call. I'd love to be able to talk to Gene or Lesley. I am so grateful Gene put a tofu dish on the menu at Luckys. I'd be so grateful if you can come up with a really good gluten-free vegan pasta. The lentil one was just way too tomato sauce like, unflavorful and not even appealing to the eye (presentation) Once I talk with them some more, I will update us. I'm hoping they might reach out to me after reading this. I'll try to stop in in person. I would prefer to send an email but again they have no email contact on the website for the restaurant or for the Montesano group. I really do appreciate all that they bring to our community. read more

Montecito is... What I refer to as the gateway to Santa Barbara... The heart of Santa Barbara County... And is and will always be a special place to me personally. Although driving down Coast Village Road (Montecito's main Blvd). has changed somewhat over the years since I first set eyes on it 22 years ago; It is nothing short of magical every single time that I exit the 101 fwy. and get off on the Coast Village Road exit in beautiful Montecito. My wife and I recently had a night away and stayed at the Montecito Inn. We made an early reservation for dinner at Tre Lune down the street and to my surprise, despite it being a rainy Tuesday evening in the middle of March, by the time the evening was up, this place was absolutely poppin' and every single table was filled up. Apparently, everybody who was anybody received the same memo that the dinner bell had been rung. ------------------------ And I may not speak the Italian language... But throw some Italian bread, olive oil, a glass or two of red wine from the motherland, a bowl of Spaghetti Cacio e Pepe with cracked pepper, and a perfectly cocoa-powdered tiramisu at me, and I will gladly represent the Green, White and Red Nation in the blink of an eye. The setting of Tre Lune is simple. It's by no means pretentious and it serves up quality Italian dishes at a fair price. True story... I, unlike my wife killed my entire dish of pasta and there was nothing left on my plate. My wife, unlike me, didn't walk back to our hotel holding my stomach saying what did I just do!? Haha, just kidding. Maybe. Not really. ;) But you know what, it was great, and I'd do it again. So, the next time you find yourself in beautiful Montecito and Italian is on the mind, come check out Tre Lune and... Get. Your. Pasta. On. read more

Probably the worst Italian food we've had- this place is a gimmick and I'm not sure why there's so much clientele. Their seafood is frozen and not fresh. I had to ask them to remake my shrimp pasta because the shrimp was inedible and still frozen inside - so disgusting and disturbing for a place charging these prices and so frequented by locals and visitors to Montecito. The server was kind enough to remake it, but unfortunately it was still bad and not fresh the second time and I ended up not even eating it. It seems like management thinks it's the best restaurant around but they need a major revamp and need to actually produce quality food. read more
