"I see the River Jetty Restaurant Group has opened A Crystal Cove at the Crystal Cove Shopping Center as an upscale lunch-and-dinner spot at 7864 E. Coast Highway in Newport Beach featuring plush booths, plenty of seafood, and a glowing central bar with artsy lighting and room for two dozen diners; the project holds 200 diners inside plus more out on the patio and is meant to be an anchor for the shopping center. Chef Elvis Morales’ menu moves from starters like barbecued heirloom carrots to pizzas, pastas, skirt steak, and seafood, served across daily lunch through dinner hours with brunch on the weekends." - Farley Elliott
