600 Olive St
Santa Barbara, CA 93101
Arnoldi's Cafe was established in 1937. With two large dining rooms, a huge heated patio, fire pit, two bocce courts, and stone barbecue with red oak wood, Arnoldi's Cafe makes for a great Santa Barbara dining experience. Our enclosed booths create an intimate dining experience for two, and the unique atmosphere of our candle lit dining room is an experience to remember. We specialize in traditional home style Italian food, using the freshest produce, finest quality meats and fish, and the very best imported Italian meats, cheeses and olive oil. We also serve local fish and offer specials from our Santa Barbara Farmer's Market.
