Thanks to an exclusive relationship with gardener Cynthia Sandberg, Silicon Valley's best restaurant is able to source the freshest ingredients. James Beard Award-winner David Kinch prepares hyper-seasonal tasting menus that emphasize the local produce.

Christopher Kostow's Napa Valley blockbuster recently took home three coveted Michelin stars and the chef himself was named Best Chef: West by the James Beard Foundation. The nightly ten-course tasting menu is far from cheap, but it's also one of California's finest meals.

Set inside the former Olema Inn—and, by the way, practically atop the San Andreas Fault—this locavore heaven sources its produce from within a ten-mile radius of the restaurant, drawing on the agricultural bounty of Point Reyes. Best of all, the prices are reasonable, with no entree priced at more than $20 and a hearty tasting menu for $75.

A former professional figure skater with Disney on Ice, chef Justin Cogley made a smooth transition to the culinary world, working under Chicago legend Charlie Trotter before opening 12-table Aubergine and winning the title of Food & Wine's Best New Chef 2013.

Located in the beyond-quaint bayside village of Port Costa, the Bull Valley Roadhouse cooks up crowd pleasing American classics using the produce of local farms. Restaurateurs Earl Flewellen and Samuel Spurrier are also behind the restoration of the Burlington Hotel, just next door.

Inside a 17-room Victorian mansion in the rolling countryside of Healdsburg, Madrona Manor is a luxurious step back in time. The menu combines the best local produce with ingredients sourced from as far away as Japan and Bulgaria.
