Lunch special at one of OC’s best
11.30.09
If you haven’t yet discovered Old Vine Cafe, maybe now’s the time. OC Weekly just named the Costa Mesa eatery as 2009’s Best Restaurant in OC. While Old Vine is known for its wine-tasting dinners, you can’t beat their newish 3-course prix-fixe lunch for $20. Select a soup (a luxuriously rich butternut squash and leek bisque) or salad (pssst, OC Weekly also dubbed the burrata and crispy arugula OC’s best salad!); and choose among a handful of hearty panini sandwiches (plus mac & cheese or quinoa jambalaya for you vegetarians!) for your main course and then finish off with a slice of creamy cheesecake and berry puree. It’s a gut-busting lunch feast for sure, but perfect for the holiday shopping season when you’ll need to escape the clogged malls and fuel up.
Old Vine Cafe is located at 2937 Bristol St. (at The Camp) in Costa Mesa

Deeper Layer

Undrest. We’re in love with the luxurious layering pieces made from 100% featherweight Italian cashmere with genuine mother of pearl buttons. Knitted in L.A. The pointelle lace design was inspired by the gothic etchings on the ceiling of an old Spanish cathedral.
