If you want to enjoy the sunny SoCal beach while in town, we recommend visiting the Newport Beach Pier and the surrounding beach areas to soak up some sun!
A nearby entertainment square (shaped like a triangle) with a movie theater, Yard House and the 24 Hour Fitness that Steven used to frequent.
Steven's favorite Mexican food spot when he lived in Costa Mesa. Please order an extra fish taco for him!
If you are here for an extended period of time and have children (or are a Disney adult, no judgement), then Disneyland in Anaheim is only a 20-30 minute drive away from Costa Mesa/Newport Beach!
If you just want to get your drank on at a nearby dive bar, we recommend the Goat Hill Tavern where Steven once won Cage the Elephant tickets (your results may vary).
For all of our hipster friends. Good food with vegan options, places to grab a drink as well as small boutique shops to buy things before they're cool.
Amazing soup dumplings located at the South Coast Plaza shopping mall nearby. There will probably be a wait but you can browse all the fancy shops in the mall! There are plenty of options but Steven only ever went inside the Uniqlo.
