Wonderful Mediterranean cuisine in downtown Carmel. The ambiance is warm, relaxed-romantic, and guests will frequently be serenaded by the restaurant owner Faysal.

If you enjoy baguettes, a stop by Lafayette is an absolute best. A truly French bakery with excellent pastries and freshly baked bread. Go early before they sell out of baguettes!
