Big Sur Bakery & Restaurant
This funkily decorated, warmly lit house has offerings that change through the day and season. Wood-fired pizzas and stellar burgers share the lineup with more refined - but just as satisfying - dishes like wild salmon with succotash. The bakery pours the best coffee in Big Sur and sells its own house granola. In the words of one local, 'their ham and cheese croissant is...mwa! Tasty shit.' Poke around the spirit garden next door.

Big Sur River Inn
This inn in the Village has a woodsy old supper-club feel, a fireplace that could eat you alive and a deck that overlooks the river teeming with throaty frogs. The food is classic American, sourced from organic local produce and hormone-free meat.

Big Sur Roadhouse
The Fosters opened this Roadhouse after working together at Sierra Mar, the Post Ranch Inn's posh eatery. Thankfully, they've chosen to share with us fresh, impeccable cuisine (like plantain tostones with tiger prawns) minus the haute attitude. Inside, the restaurant fairly glows from the corner fireplace and copper-top bar, not to mention the smiles from diners' faces. The front patio is more often than not covered in exuberant chalk drawings.

Nepenthe
Nepenthe (nuh- penth -ee) comes from a Greek word meaning 'isle of no sorrow', and indeed, it's be hard to feel blue while sitting on its cliff-top terrace, the vast ocean vista spread out before you. The food, while tasty (try their renowned Ambrosia burger), is secondary to the view and Nepenthe's place in history. Orson Welles and Rita Hayworth bought the land in 1944, and in 1947 Bill and Lolla Fassett opened the restaurant.
