Rank 7. Saffy's
Middle Eastern
At Saffy's, open flames and the theatrical work of dough command attention—lamb and pork kebabs arrive from long metal skewers, while grilled lobster glazed in green harissa carries the refinement of fine dining. Bread ranges from delicate challah to pillowy laffa; dessert, anchored by avocado-honey soft serve with tableside sherry, refuses to be an afterthought.

Rank 12. Tomat
Californian New American
A pale-green dining room dressed in rust-leather banquettes sets the stage for seasonal cooking that takes shape as evening falls. The kitchen moves deftly through local produce—charred vegetables nested in ajo blanco, a Liberty Farms duck split and crisped, dressed with pomegranate-walnut mole—and closes with sticky toffee pudding and burnt-milk gelato. The effect is farm-direct without the fuss.

Rank 20. kodō
Kyoto Japanese
Inside a converted firehouse on Santa Fe, kodō trades heat for restraint—a serene dining room anchored by a boulder-desk and raw materials. The kitchen moves between robata and sushi with California ease, the nigiri precise enough to quiet even the Instagram crowd; little neck clams in garlic butter and off-menu sea snail are the real pleasures here. A place built for calm rather than spectacle.
