Lilo

Lilo is an intimate 22-seat chef's-counter tasting-menu restaurant tucked behind Wildland in Carlsbad Village, opened in April 2025 by chef Eric Bost and restaurateur John Resnick and awarded a Michelin star within weeks of opening. The seafood-leaning, coastally driven menu runs roughly twelve courses, and Lilo treats zero-proof seriously: alongside its wine, Champagne, and hybrid pairings, it offers a full dedicated non-alcoholic beverage pairing (about $110), composed in tandem by beverage director Andrew Cordero and wine director Savannah Riedler to match each plate. Zero-proof creations like the Okinawa Spritz — built around tea tannin, saline, and citrus bitters — are designed to elevate the food rather than merely accompany it, making it one of North County's most serious non-alcoholic pairings.
