"With a name like Campfire, it's no surprise the decor trends toward the woodsy: a mountain motif lines one wall, while camping tchotchkes stock shelves. There's even a teepee primed and ready for the kiddos. But don't mistake any of that for kitsch at this casual Carlsbad spot—it's über-stylish in its own Mid-century-meets-California way, and laidback, thanks to the local surf culture. Most dishes are shareable, and smoked, grilled, or roasted, a nod to the restaurant's name. And lest you think the dessert menu seems a bit much with its poached pears and blue cheese ice cream, direct your eyes to the very bottom, where it says: "Yes, we have s'mores." - Marie Tutko, Archana Ram
