- BBarbaravipCalifornia Central Coast •28 reviews5.0Dined on Nov 14, 2024Outstanding, as always. The food was wonderful - the oysters Rockefeller are just so delicious. I wish they would add another slice or two to the bread we ordered. Two pieces for two people - one piece per person - is a little skimpy. The wine list is wonderful and the cocktails, perfect! And the service couldn't have been more spot on. Than you Mia - you are delightful. We will be back soon.More infoIntermezzo By Wine CaskPrice: Expensive• Californian• Santa Barbara•4.8
