All The Stars From The MICHELIN Guide California 2025

"Operating like a moveable feast that begins on a heated patio before moving into a petite dining room, this Carlsbad spot delivers an attentive, carefully executed experience where small bites give way to composed plates such as dry-aged Japanese kinmedai paired with a ragout of geoduck and bone marrow or a 40-day dry-aged beef ribeye with preserved gurumelo mushrooms, seaweed, and bordelaise. The meal shifts midcourse from savory to sweet with a one-off orgeat ice cream topped with celery root bushi and Ossetra cavia, and concludes with desserts like sweet cream gelato crowned with hoja santa and finger lime." - The MICHELIN Guide
