MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View
One Star: High quality cooking
Located at the posh Rosewood Miramar Beach and fronting the Pacific Ocean, Caruso's has an enviable location. Make the short walk along the manicured lawn to arrive at this elegant retreat, housed in a separate structure with the waves crashing below. The dining room is beautifully attired with leather booths, linen-robed tables and white chairs, but make no mistake, the seasonal, seafood-forward prix-fixe takes center stage. Regional products serve as the inspiration for Italian leaning cuisine—pasta mixed with diced abalone and halved spot prawns is topped with Santa Barbara uni procured from a local diver. Desserts are especially enticing, as in the "S like Strawberry" with a ring of pasta frolla filled with rhubarb sauce, mascarpone, and perfectly ripe strawberries.
Gastronomy & Sustainability
MICHELIN Green Star
"We have a comprehensive program of local sourcing; our Garde Manger program is supported by our vegetable garden and the honey for the restaurant is produced in house from our bees; 90% of the seafood is local and sustainably sourced."
