1. Charter Oak

    American

    Christopher Kostow runs a more relaxed room here than his flagship, and that's exactly the point. The Charter Oak is a wood-fire-driven California restaurant in a gorgeous restored space, all soaring ceilings and a serious hearth, where most of what lands on the table came from the kitchen's own farm. It draws a well-dressed Napa crowd who know enough to order the cheeseburger without any irony whatsoever.
