The 14 Best Restaurants In Newport Beach - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"Located a few feet from the waves, The Beachcomber looks straight from a postcard. The popular brunch destination sits directly on Crystal Cove Beach, so getting there takes some coordinated effort (the parking lot is a scenic 10-minute walk, or a $2 shuttle ride away), but there will be no regrets when toes hit the sand. The patio is packed with people who look like they stepped off a yacht, with a beachy menu to match: ahi nachos, shrimp tacos, lobster rolls, etc. Skip the overcooked catch of the day, and focus on dishes that make sense with a mai tai or mimosa. Dessert is messy sugar-dusted beignets, with melted chocolate and whipped cream for dipping." - cathy park
