I was really looking forward to dining here for a Christmas dinner with my colleagues. Unfortunately the service was poor, food was average and prices were high. The good company is what saved the evening.
A large portion of perfectly seasoned kale salad was the highlight of the night. The burrata appetizer was a nice portion size, but was accompanied by a strange topping of what seemed like sweet cereal. I ordered the snow crab sopresini for my main course. The portion of crab was generous but the salt overwhelmed the entire dish. I also found some pieces of shell in my pasta, not exactly the crunchy texture I was looking for.
If you are in this neighbourhood for dinner, skip Montecito and head to one of the other great restaurants nearby.
