The 16 Best Restaurants & Bars In Laguna Beach - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"It can sometimes feel like Laguna Beach is a decade behind LA, and Broadway is the perfect example of why we mean that as a compliment. This kind-of-fancy restaurant has a very mid-2000s, semi-industrial interior (visible pipes, bare brick), plates with artful sauce smudges, a Top Chef chef, and really good food. The menu is big, but whatever you do, leave room for the crispy pork cheeks and the perfectly cooked whole branzino (which they conveniently remove all bones from for you). It’s a nice spot for a date, especially if you sit at the kitchen counter and order a few of their fantastic cocktails to start." - garrett snyder, jess basser sanders
