Call ahead and make a reservation! Lost Fire is an Argentinian-inspired steak house, with seafood options as well. Drinks are outstanding and unique, served up with a flair by local bartending legend Mooka. Be prepared for a fairly expensive experience, but there are always great tapas options to save a bit of cash, and the burger is both reasonably priced and really exceptional.

Pedro’s is a bustling, casual cantina and a favorite for locals and visitors alike. Pedro’s is all about creative takes on classic Mexican fare, and a beachy party vibe. Hang by the fire pit on cool nights, or warm yourself with a skinny margarita - a local favorite that skips the sweet Margarita mix and leans heavy on lime juice. Yum!

It’s the best, and Stewart has tried them all,… many many times, ha!!) Plus they take Venmo!
