Food Scene

The Frenchiest French place in town. J'adore Justine's twinkling patio for a nightcap because it is fabulous AND close to home. Try the St. Jardine or the Enfant Terrible; both are très délicieux!

You know what makes me happy? Sipping on an El Pepino and snacking on crispy green beans on the big ol' welcoming patio at Contigo. And, they have the best burger in town, hands down.

Take your flip flops off and sink your feet into the sand while you sip on a Mexican Martini or, my fave, the Salty Perrito. Takoba won't let you forget that you are on vacation!
