"We travel to Santa Barbara several times a year. We try to visit Convivo when we come. We travel with our 3 special needs border collies. The outdoor patio is dog friendly. We made a dinner reservation that included our wheelchair bound border collie. He was not feeling well so we left him at the rental house but the staff greeted us brightly and asked about the dogs. They even remembered all 3 dogs' names. We were seated quickly and service was perfect. I hate that I can't remember the name of our server. She was a sweet (I would say young, but at my age everyone seems young) blonde lady that seemed to guess what we wanted next. The meal was perfect. We started with Charcoal Prawns and a Santa Barbara Market Salad. We each ordered one of their handmade pasta dishes; Bucatini and Guinzaglio. We finished with another glass of wine and two lovely deserts; a Lemon Tart and a Cheesecake topped with fresh berries. Confession: Yes, I refused to share my lemon tart....and I was tempted to lick the plate. And the SB Market Salad is a pefect dish to share with two for a starter or a light meal. This really is a hidden gem in Santa Barbara. They even have a lovely outdoor fireplace perfect for a glass of wine or an adult beverage while watching the sunset. Shhhhh.....let's not make it too popular."

"The restaurant is small in comparison to how many guests they receive. The food wasn’t the best. It was bland especially for a Latin restaurant. Past 10:30 pm, the crowd is overwhelming but it does turn into a lounge so that’s understandable. I don’t recommend eating late since it gets so packed and people will be all over you and your food. Crowd is 20’s to middle-aged, lots of music and dancing, and overall a fun place to stop for a bit during a night of dancing."

"KAO-SOI Thai style ramen is one of the best ramen dishes in South Florida. Can order this vegan with no meat fried or steamed tofu options. I choose to order it with steamed tofu which is delicious. The broth is a beautiful full broth that has coconut milk red curry in it. I would recommend that Nori add bamboo to this this, it would be a wonderful addition. The service is always great. They're always attentive to you. The ambiance is also lovely, not too loud, or too bright. The parking for this restaurant is pretty good, and if it's ever too packed, you can go over to the Mizner shopping center and take a nice stroll over to Nori. The other dishes, such as the different curries they serve are all really well made and full of flavor. All of these curries can be made vegan. The restrooms are also extremely clean and easily accessible. If you want a good ramen, be sure to come to Nori."

"Summer Roll 5 star delicious, could eat double order and ditch the entree round. Garden Wrap 5 star same, maybe even take an extra one home. Cream Cheese Wonton 4 star nice flavor, but the cream cheese is a little to liquidy. Pot Sticker 4 star a little salty, nothing to write home about. Tom Kah Soup 5 star creamy and flavorful. Yellow Curry 5 star delicious creamy flavor, nice veggies mushrooms. Green Curry 1 star unless you like it hot, impossible to get without the spice I guess. Would have been nice if the server would have mentioned that. We ordered everything with a spice level of 2. Pad Thai 1 star Horribly sweet, could not eat it. Drunkin Noodle 4 star Good, not great, not enough noodles in the dish, a tad spicy. They are very chinsey with their rice, quite the opposite of every other Thai restaurant I have been to. Rice is so cheap, why be that way? What are we supposed to do with all the extra curry sauce, drink it like soup?"

"This is an excellent ramen bar. It tends to get quite busy, but usually, you won't have to wait more than 10 to 15 minutes for a small group. They offer plenty of vegan options as well, most featuring Impossible meat. I've visited twice, and each time I couldn't finish my entire bowl—the portion sizes are sizable! Keep in mind that the ramen doesn’t store well, so consider that when ordering. All the ingredients are fresh, and the broth is delicious no matter which one you choose. I was pleasantly surprised to see mini tacos on the menu and plan to give those a try next time."
