 This sleek eatery certainly has a big city feel, but it goes hand-in-hand with hometown warmth and service. Brothers Michael and chef Chris Kobayashi, along with Chris’s wife Shandi, have made Artisan a destination in the Paso Robles wine country, but not just for special occasions or those seeking a table at one of Paso’s hot-spots. Yes, those are good reasons to visit Artisan, but locals also know it as a place to appreciate chef Kobayashi’s latest inspirations, even if you’re just enjoying a casual lunch. A commitment to sustainable proteins, local products and seasonal fare means the menu changes almost daily, but some favorites have included the smoked Gouda and porter fondue with andouille sausage, or the simple burger and flatiron steak made with local grass-fed beef. Short ribs, a house-cured pastrami sandwich, and even a fried chicken plate with collard greens and black-eyed peas have also appeared on the menu. The well-crafted wine list features prized Central Coast selections along with other regional gems, and the beer options include bottled craft labels and rotating drafts such as Anchor Steam and Chimay White. This is also one place you shouldn’t skip dessert---choose from an artisanal cheese plate showcasing local goat cheese or house-made treats like one of the seasonal fruit sorbets or cheesecakes.
