Best Historic Restaurants in Laguna Beach

For over a dozen years, it has been our tradition to dine at Beachcombers on January 1st and to linger to watch the first New Year's sunset! Beachcombers never disappoints with an awesome lunch and a killer dessert! The noise level can be high ("Energetic?") but the setting and service more than compensates. April, our server yesterday, was totally hospitable.

Perfect place for New Years Day brunch. Spectacular view from our window table. Great service that was not rushed. Food was delicious. Topped off by a walk in the park along the ocean. Las Brisas is our new New Years Day Tradition.

The Fin sushi bar is around the corner from the lobby bar so really hidden. The sushi was OUTSTANDING. We did ask for no sesame seeds at all and the edamame came with a sesame sauce. We sent it back. We also pre called and asked if they had a specific name brand sake. We were told no, we bought/brought our own, and they actually did have it. Thankfully as we didn’t want to spend the $35 cork fee on top of buying our own sake, we bought theirs. We would go back.

Mike was terrific. Provided excellent service. Food was delicious! Highly recommend.

Food was outstanding. Low key but very high quality restaurant in Laguna. Worth the drive
