Convivo is a Santa Barbara restaurant with an Italian soul. Chef-Owner Peter McNee’s menu is best described as ‘Nomad Italian’ because it strays from the standard or traditional Italian, sourcing inspiration from many other cultures’ cooking. The ever-changing menu includes small plates, housemade pasta, wood-fired pizza, rotisserie chicken and lamb, fresh seafood and steaks, all served family-style. McNee’s all-star supplier network provides the freshest produce and local seafood. Inspired by the bounty of the sea, the lush farms and abundant vineyards nearby and the cooking methods of Italy, Convivo is a festive gathering place for locals and visitors alike inside the newly-restored Santa Barbara Inn.
Inventive, seasonal New American cuisine in a chic hotel setting with a patio & ocean views.

We were there for a small wedding dinner after the ceremony.The food and food presentation were great, the location is amazing the atmosphere in the outside with the ocean in the background was beyond beautiful. Its an upscale restaurant with really good quality food. Everything we ate was delicious from the bread with olive oil and garlic to the very yummy dessert. I am not sure if the dishes we had are on the menu since it was a private event, but it gave us an idea how great the chef is. Must try when you are around Santa Barbara !!

Loved EVERYTHING about this place! Enjoyed a beautiful dinner on the patio overlooking the beach…cocktails were excellent and I highly recommend the Convivo Sour, which is their take on a traditional Pisco sour.

We had an amazing experience at Convivo! The food was incredible! We had the flat bread as an appetizer, the Bucatini, and the Lemon seafood ravioli. All were delicious! It was our honeymoon, and they brought us a dessert too! My one small complaint is the service was a little slow even though they weren’t overly busy.

Nice place to eat in Santa Barbara. If you eat outdoors you can see the view of the ocean. The service was great. The waitress made sure we were taken care of. I ordered the pesto focaccia. It was delicious. I did ask for balsamic vinegar to add some more flavor. I also ordered a mushroom pizza. It was amazing. Very filling and I could have shared it. My husband ordered two vegan options. The charred avocado salad which was refreshing and a vegan flatbread. The flatbread had mint which was a little overpowering and the vegetables were huge. Would have been better a bit smaller but overall was good. When they bring you the check they give you little mini cookies. If your dining with someone who needs vegan options this is a good place to go to.

Visiting town from Los Angeles for the memorial day weekend, so we wanted to choose somewhere special for our single night in town. We chose Convivo, based on its reputation, the reviews, and its location. I am definitely happy that we chose to dine here because we had a wonderful dinner. It’s located on the ground floor of the Santa Barbara Inn and faces toward the Pacific Ocean. We were staying at another hotel close by so we chose to walk to dinner tonight. We were seated right after arriving, and the restaurant is bright and open, and they did a good job spacing out the tables.

This restaurant is so good and has a Beautiful location in Santa Barbara. The complexities of the flavors blended so well together. I highly recommend this place. Valet parking was a nice bonus too.

Food looks fancy and tastes good at the same time, and dishes were ready fairly quickly for an Italian restaurant. Location is great right next to the ocean, with amazing view if you sit outdoors. Interior design is good too. Only issue was the service which varied across staff. The server who took care of our table (next to kitchen area) had a weird attitude and seemed like he didn’t want to talk to us.
