A California cuisine restaurant with mediterranean leaning.

Amara

Amara is where the Mediterranean comes to play! A sun-soaked garden, bold flavors, and a vibe that pulls you in and keeps you there. By day, it’s the place for long, lazy brunches and families sharing plates in the shade. By night, the energy shifts, cocktails flow, music hums, and the garden feels like a secret you’re lucky to know. Every dish is crafted from peak-season ingredients, inspired by coastlines and cultures where life moves a little slower and tastes a little better. One visit won’t be enough and that’s exactly how we like it. Our Philosophy Food &amp; Drink At Amara, the food and drink share the same philosophy start with the best ingredients and let them shine. We work with local farms and the weekly farmers market to source peak-season produce, ensuring every plate is as fresh, vibrant, and nourishing as it is delicious. Cocktails follow the same principle, mixed with market-fresh herbs, citrus, and spices into creations that feel inventive yet effortless. It’s quality without pretension, made for people who truly care about what’s on their plate and in their glass. Space Amara is designed to transport a sunlit garden, airy interiors, and cozy corners are perfect for lingering. Inspired by the Mediterranean’s rugged coastlines and warm hospitality, our space blends natural textures, lush greenery, and flowing water to create an atmosphere that feels both polished and inviting. It’s where you can sink in, slow down, and feel like you’ve stepped into another world. Events at Amara From long, lazy brunches to lively Thursday DJ nights, Amara offers experiences as dynamic as its setting. Our garden and private spaces host everything from intimate celebrations to corporate gatherings, while seasonal events like Diwali dinners or chef’s table tastings make every visit feel unique. Whether you’re here for a glass of wine at golden hour or a full evening under the stars, there’s always something to draw you back. Check Happenings to see current

Viewpoints Art Gallery

Show Dates: April 29th&nbsp;-May 31st, 2026

Meet the Artist Days: Sunday, May 3rd&nbsp;and Sunday, May 10th&nbsp;11am-5pmViewpoints Gallery is excited to present “The Ethereal Coast: A Study in Mist and Light,” a collection of breathtaking new landscapes by Bay Area artist Caroline McClinitic.&nbsp;This brilliant new series captures the shifting, atmospheric beauty of the California coastline, where the land meets the Pacific under a heavy veil of marine layer. The series moves away from high-contrast sunshine, focusing instead on the soft, diffused textures that define the region's more contemplative moods. Many pieces use texture medium and collage to mimic the tactile elements of the rugged coast. These breathtaking studies of light and air highlight Caroline’s captivating and unique style, which incorporates the organic grain of the wood panel base to perfectly capture the soft flow of wind, fog and water.&nbsp;
Caroline’s award-winning works capture the essence of the San Francisco Bay Area, from her elegant urban cityscapes to her soulful landscapes that perfectly capture the beauty of the Bay Area. “I love the ethereal&nbsp;beauty of the rugged California coast,” says Caroline. “I enjoy infusing paintings with textured layers, from the natural grain of the stained wood panel to the rough textures of rocks and foliage.” Caroline’s new collection masterfully captures the exquisite charm of the California coast’s fog shrouded summers, giving viewers a fresh perspective of some of the Bay Area’s most beloved vistas.
More information about Caroline’s latest collection is available on Viewpoints Gallery&nbsp;website,&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.viewpointsgallery.com/" rel="nofollow noopener">http://www.viewpointsgallery.com</a>&nbsp;and on Caroline’s website at&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.carolinesteiermcclintic.com/" rel="nofollow noopener">www.CarolineSteierMcClintic.com</a>, as well as her Instagram&nbsp;@carolinemcclinticart.
