9. Sol Cucina
10. Gina's Pizza
11. El Gallo Giro
12. Taqueria Tapatia
13. Chapter One (for food)
14. Ecco
15. Le Diplomate
16. Chronic Taco (unless you have drunk munchies)
17. Lemonade
18. Newport Beach Brewing Company
19. Fig & Olive
20. Durty Nelly's
21. Brodard
22. Little Onion
Fig & Olive??? Really?? I want to try this so badly.... Also, I think you should add the "(for food)" next to Sol Cucina.... they have an awesome ambiance, right?! Thanks for this list, so very helpful!!! Unforunately, I've been to too many on the list =/
ReplyDeleteI would suggest trying Fig & Olive at like a lunch time, or some off time when they aren't super busy. Because the service is horrible, but the appetizer bruschettas were GREAT. Don't go on a Friday night though because its like an old person's Vegas night out! I hear Red O is the spot to people watch though...
