CUCINA enoteca Celebrates December with Two Festive Dining Events

December 20, 2023

CUCINA enoteca, the iconic California-Italian dining destination with locations in Newport Beach and Irvine, is gearing up for a month of festive culinary celebrations. In the spirit of the season, they are presenting their annual Feast of Seven Fishes dinner series and offering luxurious New Year's Eve dining specials.

Feast of Seven Fishes at CUCINA enoteca // December 21 - 24th

CUCINA enoteca is known for its commitment to authenticity while adding innovative Cal-Ital twists to their cuisine. This year, they've put a contemporary spin on an old Italian tradition. The Feast of the Seven Fishes, traditionally observed on Christmas Eve, brings Italians together around the table for a "family-style" feast consisting of seven courses of pescatarian delights. CUCINA enoteca's take on this holiday tradition features seven distinct seafood specials, each available on a rotating basis during the seven days leading up to Christmas Eve (from December 18th to 24th). Each restaurant location will infuse its own creative flair into these seafood specials, highlighting the 'fish of the day' and offering diners a taste of the ocean alongside their regular menu. Reservations can be made for this event here.

Here's the lineup of seafood specials:

  • December 21st – Swordfish
  • December 22nd – Oysters
  • December 23rd – Lobster
  • December 24th – Prawns

Location: CUCINA enoteca Irvine | 532 Spectrum Center Dr, Irvine.
