Housed in a cozy arts and crafts cottage overlooking the ocean, this restaurant at Montage Resort is a study in understated elegance. The menu is the creation of award-winning chef James Boyce, and features contemporary California cuisine, made with the freshest local ingredients. Settle in for a supper made up of dishes like pan-seared John Dory with baby fennel, cipollini onions and caramelized cauliflower and madras curry, or vinegar-braised short ribs with butter-roasted asparagus. The wine cellar features more than 1,800 bottles with plenty of California selections and wines available by the glass.
