Montecito sits just off U.S. Highway 101, about five minutes from downtown Santa Barbara and roughly 90 minutes northwest of Los Angeles, on a stretch of the Central Coast known as the American Riviera. “Upscale Coast Village Road is this sophisticated town’s Main Street, the place where locals gather for shopping and dining. Despite its small size, Montecito has earned a reputation as one of the Central Coast’s premier dining destinations.” [visitcalifornia.com]
