"While the ten-course Japanese menus at Oceanside’s Matsu steal the spotlight, be sure to make room for the harmonious cocktails. Begin your meal with the smoky Koi, a delicate blend of mezcal, bitter Aperol, and pineapple, or opt for the Tanuki, their twist on an Old Fashioned infused with the deep intensity of Okinawan brown sugar." - Kelly Bone, Candice Woo
