"From Daisy Ryan and the folks behind Bell's in Los Alamos, this bright and cheery seafood spot is just down the road in Los Olivos. Slide in to one of the booths or banquettes and settle in for a meal that is an ode to the sea and is best enjoyed with shared plates. There are radishes with sea urchin butter to start and dry aged branzino as main dishes, but put those decisions on ice—literally—and order oysters or crab claws. Beef tartare is given a seafood crown with two fried oysters; add the saffron buns to your order for the perfect complement. Simple and focused desserts include olive oil cake with a strawberry sauce and orange marmalade, finished with whipped cream and a lemon cookie crumble. The wine list is worth a deep dive; they even have their own label." - Nancy DePalma
