The name means 'clever' or 'cunning,' but you don't have to be a particularly sharp tool to appreciate the ample charms of this hip, easygoing Seaside gem. The staff is effortlessly hospitable, and the breezy space has a chic loft aesthetic, but it's the cooking that really makes this place a coup de coeur. The menu draws on Italian-American and French classics (think chicken parm and asparagus with hollandaise), but the feel is thoroughly Californian, with a light, contemporary touch and spectacular local ingredients that make even all-too familiar dishes like Caesar salad memorable'a testament to Chef Klaus Georis's extensive experience in fine dining. To drive home the point, finish with a spot-on tarte tatin, served warm with softly whipped cream.
