Giannfranco's Trattoria - Carpinteria

Very recommended! We went for lunch and were not disappointed. First, this place is immaculate. One of the cleanest restaurants from the entrance, dining room terrace to toilets so clean. The food is home cooking, made with love Italian. The meatballs are like Nanas. The olives are tasteful and unique. The salad was crispy fresh and delicious. The service is the best part. From the host who sat us, the waiter and the Lord whom I believe the owner) who helped us to serve us. Very friendly, in service and so attentive. Eat here!

I had a salami sandwich and it was good. Husband had a panini and that was good. Friendly, cozy atmosphere. The owners loved how they came to welcome us and offered their thoughts to some of the dishes. They were so sweet and welcoming. They warmed my heart. Will definitely try again dinner : .

A hidden jewel! On a warm afternoon we were drawn to the “Specials” board outside the restaurant. What a pleasant surprise was their inviting shaded terrace with a water feature, parasols and plants. We ordered 2-gluten free pasta dishes and they were both delicious. We felt confident that the cook Celiac and our gluten understood Allergy after talking to the restaurant owner who had imagined himself at the table. We will definitely return and recommend this picturesque Italian restaurant with great service and delicious food. Thanks Anna!

Visit with friends and we came across this amazing restaurant. Didn't come to know that we were totally surprised by food. Every bite was sensational! The staff was very warm and welcoming to visit us as your grandmother would at a family meeting. If the lunch service was so impressive, I can't wait to come here for dinner.

This is a great place overall in there a menu is amazing and expensive. This restaurants on the way to a five-star but my main meal was very salt forward in the peppers over took the dish nonetheless I had the Capri safe to start with which was exceptional their wine list is small but they're all bangers and I had the fra diavolo for the main course which was far above average but salt forwards and the red pepers..carried it to much. The back dining area is absolutely perfect for either during the day or at night. It creates a nice Ambience at night and lastly and most important the service is exceptional and I had the pleasure of meeting one of the corners and it sent my experience over the top very well done and can't wait to be back
