CA Restaurant Named 'Best Of The Best' Fine Dining In The Nation

When it comes to fine dining, one restaurant, above all others in California, hit the mark with tourists, according to a travel platform’s ranking based on diner reviews.

Tripadvisor’s Travelers’ Choice Awards represent the “best of the best” in several categories.

“When you’re looking for the crème-de-la-crème, these are the places worth getting on the waitlist for. Think: white tablecloths, best-in-class chefs, and unforgettable bites, the site said.

Only 19 restaurants made the cut in the fine dining category. In California, tourists raved about Splashes Restaurant in Laguna Beach.

The restaurant was ranked 17 out the 19 best fine dining destinations in the nation, and it was the only Golden State eatery to make Tripadvisor’s list.

"Splashes has everything you want in a Laguna Beach restaurant: first-rate coastal views, fresh local seafood, and expert wine pairings," according to Tripadvisor. "The service is also friendly without being pushy, and interiors are light and breezy thanks to a recent renovation. Snag a reservation at sunset if you can swing it."

Tripadvisor said the “best of the best” title celebrates the highest level of excellence in travel. It’s awarded to those who receive a high volume of above-and-beyond reviews and opinions from Tripadvisor users over a 12-month period. Out of the site’s 8 million listings, fewer than 1 percent achieve this milestone.
