"La Costanera is a beloved contemporary Peruvian restaurant with a stunning oceanfront location just north of Half Moon Bay. Featuring decor that incorporates thoughtful nods to Peruvian culture, La Costanera blends a breadth of Indigenous, African, European, and Asian influences. Chef Carlos Altamirano, who was raised in southern Peru, marries native Peruvian produce, like choclo and aji panca, with Californian flare to create dishes like pulpo a la parrilla and Scallops Carlitos, a dish made with fresh East Coast scallops topped with corn, nori, and togarashi. Lomo saltado is another wok-fired staple, and the cebiche tasting features a trio of fresh fish." - Cathy Park
