My top recommendation. Only a two block walk from my house and the food is fantastic and the prices reasonable. Sometimes there is a bit of a wait, especially for Sunday brunch, and weekend dinners.

Fantastic Seafood Restaurant, and they also have vegetarian food as well as steaks, lamb, and pork. Excellent wine selection. On the pricey side, but great if you have the money.

Wonderful seafood/American cuisine. For the spectacular ocean view, make reservations or arrive early. Can be pricey depending on what you order. Get there before 6 for the "early-bird" special.

Sightseeing

An extremely scenic point on the waterfront. The upper part is grassy, great for picnics. The lower part has two beaches divided by rocks and a pier. Typically very kid-safe, toddlers pool is 3' deep.
