25 Essential Peninsula Restaurants

"In a train caboose on Highway 1, Dad’s Luncheonette serves reinvented American roadside classics, made with ingredients that showcase the best of coastal farms in the area. Chef Scott Clark, who comes from the world of fine dining, founded the joint after he felt compelled to craft more simplistic but still delicious bites and move closer to the coast. Aligned with the minimalism of serving fare from a railroad car, there are only two entrees on the menu: a hamburger sandwich and a vegetarian mushroom sandwich. Both come with a soft fried egg, housemade pickled red onions, locally grown lettuce, and a layer of “Dad’s sauce.” The potato chips, which are hand sliced every day, make a worthy side." - Cathy Park
