1. River Twice

    New American

    Corner restaurant with floor-to-ceiling windows where chef Randy Rucker applies French and Japanese techniques to local seafood. The monthly menu shifts constantly—halibut arrives with shellfish emulsion, squid meets butter beans and miso—and a counter seat offers views of the kitchen's precise work.
