Business Summary  what's this?
For two star Italian, try Pascucci in Santa Barbara. This very affordable establishment is one of the popular restaurants in the area. This place features outdoor dining. Upon entering the restaurant, you'll find a romantic atmosphere.
4.0 of 5 stars.
A festive and welcoming restaurant with excellent service and satisfying menu. This was an all around positive dining experience. We had the ravioli and it was delicious!

The food is pretty good here but the ambience is the real draw, especially if you can snag one of the booths near the fireplace in the front room. The only drawback is the booths directly face each other so...
