At the Inn of the Seventh Ray, lovers find waterfalls and sycamore trees in a taken-over-by-nature setting that easily leads to romantic feelings. That's especially true if you sit out in the slightly wild garden, where a welcoming fireplace gives a soft glow to the whole space. And being in Topanga Canyon, it's no surprise that the chefs at this iconic restaurant actually forage for the herbs they use in the organic dishes they concoct. Plus, most of the produce used in the menu selections are sourced locally and the chef makes sure that many dishes can be made gluten free or vegan. Carnivores should be sure to try the 8-hour Plum Braised Short Ribs for a swooningly great dish.
