The Bar will also host monthly learn + grow and learn + craft workshop series.

In the home décor sections you can find an international selection of new and vintage accents; Aidan Gray furniture pieces; luxury bedding and table linens; exclusive French apothecary products, and fine books.

Adios El Torito Grill

We are sorry to see El Torito Grill in Fashion Island closing after 26 years of great food and memories. Their last day of operation is Tuesday. So if you can get in today or Tuesday for one last warmer of fresh tortillas with sweet honey butter, salsa and smoky salsa, enchiladas topped with pickled tangy red onions and  signature green rice and black beans you should. Also, don’t forget a Grill Margarita or a glass of chilled Herradura Anejo.

At Fashion Island 951 Newport Center Drive in Newport Beach. 949.640.2875
