A James Beard Award-winning restaurant that pioneered the dim sum-style service of California small plates, with servers rolling carts of inventive dishes through the dining room. The state bird (quail) with provisions is the signature dish, but everything on the menu is worth trying. Reservations are extremely competitive; book the moment they open or try for walk-in spots at the bar.
