Award-winning Sam & Harry's restaurant at the Newport Beach Marriott Hotel & Spa spices up fine dining with an indulgent four-course dinner paired with tequila infused cocktails inspired by wine pairing feasts.

Chef Adrian Sbarna and special host, Yehuda Ziv of Porfidio Tequila, invite guests to join them on Wednesday from 5 to 9 p.m. to experience the memorable tequila dinner.

The four-course evening starts with Baja shrimp and scallop Porfidio marinated ceviche with jicama slaw garnished with jumbo prawn paired with the Rio Grande, a provocative cocktail of Porfidio Tequila, Grand Marnier, cordials and juices.

And then enjoy a refreshing salad of fresh romaine and baby bibb lettuce expertly paired with Mexican Violet, a cocktail of Porfidio Tequila in parfait Amour and the flavor of passion fruit.

The main course is the Sonora style filet mignon and slightly chilled Porfidio Anejo gold tequila served in a lime and sugar rimmed snifter.

And for dessert, dulce de leche and banana carmel flan accompanied by Segura Viudas Brut Reserve.

Costs $75 per person. The event offers open seating, although reservations are highly encouraged.
