Congrats on your anniversary!!!

:party:

I don't dine much down in OC, the only places I go to is Blu Fin at Crystal Cove for sushi, Marche Modern, and Mastro's/Ocean Club. I heard good things about the French cuisine at The Cellar. Hopefully our OC PuristS can chime in on a nice place for you guys to celebrate this special occasion.

Marché Moderne is top notch. A very nice Italian restaurant is Andrea Ristorante at Pelican Hill. Request table with views.

I've never dined with Marche Moderne for dinner. It's more of a lunch place for me. But it's a great venue. I have enjoyed a catered seated dinner at the Tourbillon Boutique in Costa Mesa that I believe came from Marche Moderne.

Thanks guys...looking at the cellar in Fullerton. Perhaps a location closer to coast?

Thanks guys! Although it is very enticing to be able to walk and visit all the watch stores after dinner :)... My wife will probably want to walk around an outside environment after dinner... Sorry for changing the criteria :)

What about the Ritz Carlton in Laguna Nigel? I haven't been there for a while but what I do remember is that the food was good and they had a nice pathway around the property. ED-209 has spent a lot of time there, I'll get him to share his experience with...

. . . my suggestion would be Medii in Anaheim Hills. I know loads of places in OC, but most aren't quite up to the atmosphere you're looking for. Mitch, on the other hand, probably knows a bunch of them; I'll alert him to your query. Cordially, Art

Suggestions, and Congrats!

Congrats on your wedding anniversary! My limited experiences in the OC area is near the Dana Point/Laguna Niguel area that DRMW mentioned. If you're staying at the Ritz Carlton the location is fantastic and overlooks the Pacific Ocean. Service is outstand...

Haven't made a final choice yet; but you have given us plenty to choose from!

consider. In south Laguna I would agree that the Studio at the Montage is a consideration - good food but expensive. Up the coast a bit is a favorite - Tabu - good food and an open kitchen so it is fun to watch the chefs do their thing. In Laguna I have h...

Thanks everyone! Decided on bluefin!
