Blanca is less than a year old, and is a wonderful special occasion resturant. It has a small, classically decorated dining room with well-attended wait staff. A diverse California menu was accented with classic gourmet touches. I was especially impressed with the fact that the breads, entrees, and coffees arrived pipping hot! All of these things come with a cost. Expect to pay a top price for this exceptional experience. In my book, it was wll worth it!
