Nelson's

This surfy gastropub sits directly over Ranchos Palos Verdes' jaw-dropping ocean coves, and sports an amped-up beach fare menu including chipotle shrimp tacos w/ napa slaw, avocado, & red chili "mojo" sauce, and a lobster roll on thick brioche, as well as pitchers of micro-suds like Dale's Pale Ale and Fat Tire. The patio gets an outdoor fireplace, while the woody interior's made entirely of recycled and sustainable materials (including a bartop made of wine bottles), and is decorated with posters from late-50s TV show Sea Hunt, starring Lloyd Bridges -- who, when he said yes to Honey I Blew Up The Kid, chose the wrong day to quit picking good roles.
