'A Restaurant' To Reopen With Al Fresco Dining In Newport Beach

NEWPORT BEACH CA — Orange County's landmark A Restaurant is reopening Thursday with outdoor dining under a new, spacious tent at its Newport Beach West Coast Highway locale.

On the menu will be wine and seasonal cocktails, along with the eatery's upscale classics and contemporary cuisine, courtesy of newly appointed Corporate Executive Chef Alfonso Ramirez and Chef de Cuisine Roberto Gomez.

The distinctive "old Arches" property dates to 1925 when it began as a restaurant and service station in the early Coast Highway era. Over the years, A Restaurant has morphed from a roadside diner to steak-and-seafood, celebrity hotspot to a French cuisine menu to today's version with fine dining and chef-curated comfort food.

Reservations for the outdoor dining are required, and can be placed at (949) 650-6505 or via the website. Daily hours will be 5 p.m. to 10 p.m.

The establishment also is offering to-go service and curbside pick-up for meals and bottles of wine. A Restaurant is at 3334 West Coast Hwy. in Newport Beach. See the menu here.
