Vito Restaurant - Santa Monica, Santa Monica, CA

Vito Restaurant in Santa Monica

Old-School Italian Cuisine with a Coastal Soul

Built on family recipes and gracious hospitality, this dining room carries a story that began in Naples and took root in California in 1980. Vito Restaurant keeps that legacy close through attentive service, tuxedoed waiters, and a candlelit room that feels polished without losing its warmth.

The kitchen leans into Italian food with classic recipes, chef-driven care, and dishes that have become part of the restaurant’s identity, including Spaghetti Della Casa, Homemade Tiramisu, and Vito's pasta. It is intimate, traditional, and lively in the right measure, the kind of place where guests settle in and feel looked after.
