Mexican restaurant in a beautiful historic hotel building. Notice the tiled ceiling. Inventive margaritas. There is also a sister casual taqueria appended to it - great food at budget prices.

Unique restaurant by the river. A funicular ride down the landscaped hillside to a hidden treasure. Sit on the deck by the river for a more casual meal, or in the historical dining room for a step up. The go-to restaurant for our family's special occasions.

Yes, there's the Boardwalk, but a stroll on the wharf is nice too. The wharf is just beyond the Boardwalk and has shops, restaurants, fish market, ice cream parlor - even a tiki restaurant with a rotating bar. Towards the end of the wharf you can see and hear the seal lions lounging on the pylons.
