Laguna Beach｜Splashes: The Most Stunning Oceanfront Restaurant 🌊

📍 Splashes in Laguna Beach is hands down my favorite coastal restaurant in California! Since moving to LA five years ago, I’ve been here countless times — for dates, friend gatherings, you name it. If it’s by the ocean, this is my go-to. Reservations are a must, and valet parking is available. 🌄 This place doesn’t need to try hard to set the mood — it is the mood. Especially at sunset, when the whole ocean turns golden. Pure California magic! ✨ And the food? Definitely not your basic "white people food" — some dishes are seriously delicious! Here’s what I always order: 🐙 Spanish Octopus 🐚 Whale's Cove Mussels 🥩 Steak Tartare 🌽 Corn & Crab Risotto 🔸 Seared Bristol Scallops 🐟 Whole Roasted Branzino 🚫 Skip the oysters though — the quality can be inconsistent and sometimes they’re too fishy. #100DayProject #LAEats #LAFoodGuide #LAFood #OceanViewDining #LagunaBeachEats #LagunaFood #IrvineFood #LAOceanfrontRestaurant #LADateNight
