"With sweeping views of a quiet slice of the Encinitas shoreline, serenity awaits at this restaurant perched on the the top floor of the adults-only Alila Marea Beach Resort. Take a seat in the open-air lounge centered on a fire pit or peek into the open kitchen from the chef’s counter. Offering brunch, dinner, a bar, and lounge, Vaga serves an array of shared plates, entrees, sides from both land and sea. The coastal California menu features salt-baked beets, beef carpaccio with caviar, and Alaskan halibut with wild mushrooms; brunch dishes include miso caramel French toast." - Roxana Becerril
