A Coastal Take on Christmas at Huntington Holiday House
12.21.25
The Huntington Beach House has transformed its oceanfront venue into The Huntington Holiday House, bringing a coastal spin to Christmas cheer in Southern California. Now through January 4, the seasonal pop-up blends holiday magic with Surf City culture. Guests can enjoy themed food and drinks, photo moments, and festive fun for families and friends right on the sand at Huntington State Beach.
Santa Claus will appear throughout the month for beachside photos leading up to Christmas. Select evenings will feature live music to create a cozy and festive atmosphere by the ocean.
The menu is designed for chilly beach nights with dishes like birria ramen, French onion soup pot roast, chicken piccata, and a hearty Soup SZN lineup. Brunch favorites return with a holiday twist, including Christmas cereal French toast, cinnamon rolls, and eggnog pancakes. Guests 21 and over can sip holiday beverages such as mulled wine, buttered rum, Dirty Dr Pepper, and housemade Baileys served over a coffee ice block.
The Huntington Holiday House is open now through January 4, 2026. Families, friends, and pets are welcome to experience a cozy coastal Christmas with themed food, activities, and beachfront holiday magic. For hours, event details, and updates, visit thehbhouse.com.

Katsuya Century City Debuts Festive Holiday Menu for December Dining
12.18.25
Katsuya Century City is stepping into the holiday season with a limited-time menu that feels tailor-made for festive nights out, from post-shopping dinners to Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve celebrations.
Fresh off its July 2025 reimagining, the iconic Japanese dining brand has entered a new era at Westfield Century City, blending the warmth longtime guests love with a modern, design-forward energy. Nearly 20 years after redefining Los Angeles’ approach to contemporary Japanese cuisine, Katsuya’s refreshed flagship pairs a re-envisioned menu with a striking Rockwell Group-designed space that balances Japanese craftsmanship with a clean, minimalist aesthetic.
From December 8 through December 31, Katsuya Century City is offering holiday specials that elevate the season with rich flavors and celebratory flair:
• Smoked Duck Breast Nabe Udon with lotus root and shiitake mushrooms
• Spicy Lobster Miso Soup
• Surf & Turf Roll with seared wagyu sashimi, shrimp tempura, snow crab, avocado, truffle ponzu, myoga, and shiso
• Strawberry Yuzu French 75 with fresh strawberries, yuzu, vodka, and Champagne or Prosecco
Located in the heart of one of Los Angeles’ most vibrant shopping and dining destinations, Katsuya Century City is an easy choice for holiday dining roundups over the next few weeks. It is a place where legacy meets what’s next, and where a festive meal feels right at home in one of LA’s most enduring restaurant brands.
