Hailed by many as the birthplace of California cuisine. Their indoor/outdoor patio is romantic, charming, and elegant. The menu changes seasonally, and the chefs at Michael's uses only the finest and freshest ingredients from the local farmer’s market. This is the place for an authentic California dining experience.
For new, breezy, and light California cuisine, try the hip Cafe Montana. A favorite of locals, it's the go-to locale to see the celebrities and Hollywood A-listers nosh on seafood, pasta, grilled meats, salads and appetizers that all include fresh ingredients from southern California. The most imaginative and popular dessert is the chocolate raspberry mousse terrine, served with a pillow of whipped cream and raspberry puree. There's also a chocoholic's slice of heaven, with three kinds of chocolate: a bittersweet shell, a dark chocolate cake and inside, a rich mousse studded with bits of New Zealand raspberries. It all comes speckled with gleaming bits of genuine gold leaf.
