 Andrea is the signature restaurant at the luxe The Resort at Pelican Hill. And while everything here is top-of-the-line, Andrea still has a casual feel, with golden lighting, cozy banquettes and an outdoor terrace with soaring Pacific Ocean views. Start with a house-made cocktail or a glass of wine from the long by-the-glass list. Then, order up a palate-opening appetizer like a seasonal soup, the tender roasted octopus with cornmeal polenta, seared scallops with crispy pancetta or a colorful shaved vegetable salad with caramelized-walnut dressing. Next, enjoy an offering featuring the homemade pasta, such as the ricotta agnolotti accompanied by quail ragoût, or rigatoni with pork sausage sauce and wild fennel. White asparagus risotto is served tableside. Mains are just as flavorful, yet light and hearty all at the same time. Options might range from halibut accompanied by potato cake and morel mushrooms to roasted Wagyu tenderloin with cannellini beans, vegetables and Barolo sauce. At meal’s end, go for the artisanal cheese plate with thoughtfully selected accoutrements or the daily hand-churned ice creams and gelatos.
