For tasty eats in a surf vibe right near the beach, head to Shore Rider's new mellow open-air patio, where they play California rock and serve beer on tap and lunch plates like mahimahi and shrimp ceviche, blue cheese and bacon fries and SoCal salads. For weekend brunch (9–1pm Saturday–Sunday): shrimp ranchero, French toast or 'dinosaur eggs.'
