Tre Lune is my favorite restaurant in Monticito - fab waiters Diego and Chris - awesome wine list and the food is divine! The veal Scallopini was the best I have had in decades. Never a disappointment - delish pastas and risottos with seasonal truffles - as close to Italy as as u can get in California! ♥️🇮🇹♥️

We arrived at a very busy time. We were greeted, offered a spot at the bar to have a drink while our table was prepared. The food was outstanding and the service was great considering how busy they were. It’s a popular place and now we know why. We will return.
