The California Central Coast is rich in sunlight, ocean views, and fabulous food.

Once you're ready to dine, Carmel is all set to help you out. Carmel cuisine has long been influenced by French tradition, and in addition to wonderful California wines, you can enjoy anything from delicate pastries to locally harvested salmon.

Consider making reservations at a corner table tucked into an old house for an intimate dinner.
