Price range: $$$$$ ($31 & up)

With a sleek, trendy interior and commitment to straight-from-the-farmer's-market-fresh organic fare, Wilshire is not only the coolest kid on the block, but the one with the best heart, too. Diners love the upscale, wood-paneled bar and cigar veranda almost as much as the specialty cocktails like the tomato juice-free Bloodless Mary and honey-infused White Gold cocktails. A revamped menu features the interesting twists on the ubiquitous steak, chicken, fish trinity and inventive fare like the red curry wild boar pot pie.  The wine list is extensive, and the dessert menu runs the gamut from chichi (lavender vanilla creme brulee) to surefire (house-made doughnuts).
