Cucina Alessa
This is a small but friendly eatery with good ambience. Their Italian dishes are very popular, especially the pasta and chicken dishes. A great place for informal dining with family and friends, and many local families drop in regularly. The prices are pretty reasonable, and the staff speaks both English and Italian. Look for their daily specials and yummy desserts.
The Old Spaghetti Factory
When the kids want spaghetti, go to the Old Spaghetti Factory. They will love the baked lasagna, which comes with lots of noodles, drenched in tomato sauce and with a number of different cheeses. Choose from a wide variety of sauces to go with your spaghetti - from rich meat sauce to cheese sauce to mushroom sauce and many more. They serve all meals with accompaniments - fresh bread, green salad and ice cream.
Yuki Sushi
If your family loves sushi, then give this place a try. Run by a Japanese couple, the place is informal, with attentive staff and Yuki's signature dishes that have been written about a lot. Apart from wine, beer and sake, they also serve delicious desserts like green tea ice cream and mochi.
The Cheesecake Factory
The Cheesecake Factory is upscale and welcoming. Try their popular dishes like Cajun jambalaya pasta or chicken Madeira, apart from a wide selection of appetizers, seafood, salads, sandwiches and steaks. Of course the Cheesecake Factory would not have gone by that name if it did not have many options on their dessert menu. Be prepared to choose from 50 cheesecake varieties, like their signature offerings - white chocolate raspberry truffle or Godiva chocolate cheesecake.
C'est Si Bon
This popular French bakery is a regular haunt of early morning surfers, followed by the breakfast crowd looking for their cup of dark-roasted coffee, cakes and breads. They also do brisk business during afternoons, selling delicious sandwiches, pâtés, French cheeses and wines. For a sinfully rich dessert to satisfy those midnight chocolate cravings, pick up their house specialty - the bombe cake. It comes in a rich chocolate shell, filled with chocolate mousse made with both white and white chocolate - heavenly!
If you are looking for more goodies to take back to your vacation home, there is Dad's Donut Shop & Bakery, home to the most delicious doughnuts and other baked goods. To satisfy a craving for tacos while staying at Newport Beach, go to Chronic Tacos - they have the tastiest and freshest fish tacos.
