"Chef Luca Crestanelli’s Nella Kitchen & Bar in Los Olivos is a gorgeous mix of Italian flavors and coastal California sensibilities. The hotel restaurant has a sturdy bar for wine sipping and chatting, a patio for catching sunny rays, and a robust menu of pinsas, seafood snacks, and meaty mains. The Verona-born chef also oversees S.Y. Kitchen in Santa Ynez, which is known for its scratch-made plates of pasta like the wild mushroom pappardelle." - Cathy Chaplin, Eater Staff
