The restaurant is "sold" as a place to see the sunset and enjoy a nice, leisurely early evening dinner. Well, if you are not seated outside (and not the tables stuck in the corner by the wall, which is the one we got) you really don't get to enjoy the sunset at all or just partially.

We love the Pacific Highlands Inn, but the main restaurant is no longer open for lunch. The default restaurant for lunch is the California Market. The menu looks good.

We decided to go to California Market (located in the Highlands Inn Hyatt) as it was walking distance from our hotel (Tickle Pink). We had the best meal of our trip to California. The food, the service and the atmosphere were all great! We both had the best steak we had in a very long time and California Market is... more
