Fodor's Review:

In a nod to Laguna's art history, Studio has food that entices the eye as well as the palate. You can't beat the location, on a 50-foot bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean—every table has an ocean view. Executive chef James Boyce changes the menu daily to reflect the seafood and the fresh ingredients on hand (he even has a "personal forager"). Among the standouts you might find grilled rib-eye steak and a salad of seared Catalina yellowtail with Hawaiian green papaya and lemongrass. A prix-fixe tasting menu is $115; with wine it's $170. Nonalcoholic beverages can be paired with the food, too.

Our 25th Anniversary Dinner at The Studio/A Night To Remember

Posted by kimamom from CA/Oregon Coast on 3/2/07
AFter spending 3 nights at the Hotel Del Coronado, we decided on the Montage for the night of our 25th wedding anniversary. First of all, I would like to say that this place is totally over the top and absolutely amazing. The grounds are stunning, the view from the lobby balcony literally took our breath away (we renewed our vows here later in the evening,) and the service is outstanding. Our meal at The Studio was perfect, our wine was decantered upon arrival, everything we ordred was good, my entree of the John Dory seafood was perfectly prepared, service was attentive and professional, desserts were also excellent. A very nice special occasion restaurant.
