In most national parks, food is an afterthought. Not so at the Cavallo Point Lodge, where every ingredient is thoughtfully considered. Small plates combine easily a dozen components—like the Dungeness crab cake with sunflower seeds, vanilla, pear, kaffir lime, and a creamy jalapeño bisquewhile keeping flavors clean and sharp. The $85 eight-course tasting menu is the best deal in the Bay Areathen your only decision is which of the cellar's 13,000 wines to choose.
Tip: Arrive before sunset the view across the bay to San Francisco is equally striking by day and night (entrées, $10$22).
