Rank 8. Workshop Kitchen & Bar
Farm-to-table New American
A Spanish colonial building hollowed out for modernist austerity: polished concrete, a mist-cooled courtyard, and wood-fired dishes that draw from the Coachella Valley's agricultural surplus. The flat iron au poivre and yuzu tart—garnished with farm-fresh raspberries and wood sorrel—prove the kitchen's restraint. House-made ginger beer anchors a bar program that balances tradition and invention.

Rank 13. Paradisaea
New American
A tropical reverie in La Jolla, complete with hibiscus-patterned chairs and a patio that catches the sun just right. The kitchen applies Asian and tropical touches to local ingredients—coconut shrimp kissed by robata heat, halibut fried golden and set against watermelon radish with green curry aioli. Tiki drinks anchor the bar, and everything tastes like vacation tastes on the best days.

Rank 20. Catania
Modern Italian
High on La Jolla's Plaza Center, Catania commands coastline views from a sun-soaked terrace dressed in Mediterranean tile and color. The kitchen riffs on tradition: wood-fired Neapolitan pizza shares the menu with orecchiette tangled in duck ragù, while a daily salad might pair ahi tuna crudo with poppy seeds and basil. Modern enough to surprise, rooted enough to satisfy.
