Costa Mesa Restaurant Week!

Costa Mesa Restaurant Week

In full disclosure, we’re partial to Costa Mesa. It’s home. And so we’re extra excited to announce Costa Mesa’s Restaurant Week. It’s time to try the city’s stellar new and established restaurants and take advantage of three or more course prix fixe menus at value prices.

Twenty-eight premium restaurants have joined the inaugural Costa Mesa Restaurant Week continuing through Friday, Aug. 26.
It’s difficult to choose where we want to eat first. South Coast Plaza’s fave restaurants are on the list including AnQi, Charlie Palmer, Hamamori, Seasons 52, The Capital Grille, Nello Cucina, and Quattro Café; plus there are other incredible restaurants like Avanti Café, Scott’s Seafood, and the new Silver Trumpet.

For a complete list of restaurants visit Costa Mesa Restaurant Week.
