    JRDN is the perfect spot for all meals! Located on the beach, it has a gorgeous ocean view without the awful oceanfront parking nightmare other restaurants have (as it has free valet for the restaurant!) The food is consistently amazing, and they have great warm options for wintertime and the best sushi and bowls for summertime. This spot is close to my work so is my go-to lunch meeting spot. It never gets too loud or rowdy and always has just that touch of luxe feel without being egregiously expensive. 10-out-of-10 every time!
