4. Laurel Restaurant & Bar

HILLCREST / BALBOA PARK.   Despite a change in ownership, sleek updated décor, and a revamped menu, much-lauded Laurel is still one of the city's top tables. The kitchen focuses on contemporary Mediterranean flavors, such as mussels with harissa-beer broth, foie gras with Meyer lemon puree, seared ahi with citrus couscous, paella, rack of lamb with garlic flan, and roasted chicken with salsify and kabocha squash. For a more casual (and economical) experience, check out the "7 for $7" happy hour menu, which includes seven apps and seven cocktails.   (© 10Best)
