Savoy for Small Plates!
Looking for a new place to dine? The Savoy Restaurant and Lounge just opened at The Hotel Hanford, a new boutique-style hotel near South Coast Plaza. The Savoy specializes in a small plates tour of Europe created by Executive Chef Michael Carpenter, and to compliment the cuisine a private wine salon and tasting room is due to open late summer with an award-winning selection from Sodaro Estate Winery, as well as select wines from Napa Valley’s Coombsville region.
A sample of the Savoy Restaurant menu includes a trio of tempura shrimp, seared ahi tuna and baked sea scallop; spicy tuna, salmon tartar and spicy scallops served in cones; grilled baby lamb chops served with baked polenta, vegetables and mint chimichuri; a selection of four farmhouse cheeses and tasty treats; and Italian telaggio cheese and forest mushrooms pizza with truffle oil.

The Savoy Restaurant and Lounge also offers a selection of classic and contemporary cocktails including several signature cocktails such as The Costa Mojito and OC-Sunset, a citrus, ginger and champagne cocktail, as well as a selection of award-winning international wines.
It’s also a perfect pre-theater destination with complimentary parking and shuttle service to and from the Orange County Performing Arts Center.
