Waterfront dining at its best
01.08.10
There is such a thing as a restaurant with the total package: The Dock Restaurant in Newport Beach features pristine views of the bay, an intimate alfresco dining patio and elegant fare.
The Dock is the latest reincarnation of its beloved predecessor, Le Quai. Located right on the bay in historic and charming Cannery Village, The Dock boasts waterfront dining in a relaxed setting ideal for weekend brunch with the girls or family and romantic dates. Look for Mediterranean-infused offerings such as braised short ribs with polenta; New Zealand lamb loin with couscous and a mint emulsion, and grilled romaine salad with pumpkin seeds. There’s also a carefully selected and reasonably priced wine list. Lunch specials include a 3-course prix-fixe meal for $15 (Tuesday through Thursday) and for dinner, come Tuesday nights from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. for the Dockyard Special, a 3-course chef’s choice dinner for $18. Another unique perk: The Dock offers catered Duffy boat cruises complete with your own captain for patrons looking for a special dining adventure. Mention Greer’s OC and receive $25 off a catered boat cruise. The Dock is also a great venue for private events like small weddings, engagement dinners and corporate functions. Mention Greer’s OC and receive 10% off to book a private event at The Dock. Offers good until March 2010.
The Dock is located at 2816 LaFayette Avenue in Newport Beach

Calling All Virgins?
01.07.10
When I first heard that Veggie Grill in Irvine was calling on all “virgins” to come out for its Virgin Night this Tuesday, I thought that’s not going to be much of a crowd. But then, I realized, a “virgin” was just a friend who is experiencing The Veggie Grill for the first-time. Ok, that’s completely different.
So hear you go, on Tuesday you can treat a “virgin” friend to a complimentary entrée provided at The Veggie Grill. Looks like you’re going to have to find out exact details about how to participate on the restaurant’s Facebook and Twitter pages on Monday, Jan. 11. The restaurant’s extensive menu of delicious comfort foods, just so happens to be 100% plant-based.
At Irvine Spectrum, 81 Fortune Dr. in Irvine. 949.727.9900; and University Center at 4213 Campus Dr. in Irvine. 949.509.0003
