Hi beach cafe lovers, If you are like me, desiring to sit at a thatch-roofed table, overlooking the ocean, with your bare feet free to dig in the sand beneath your table, then the Paradise Cafe does look like, well, Paradise. Which is what led me back there for the 2nd visit in a year for an early morning breakfast... more

We drove doen from Laguna Beach and had some time to kill before our Getty Villa reservation and needed lunch. We had no reservation, but were advised it would be 20 minutes or so for a table. We were seated at 30 minutes. Loud, loud, loud. We could not converse. After a considerable wait we were given menus. Prices ranges... more

Even with a reservation we had to wait two hours for our table!!!. The service was terrible. I would never tell anybody to go here. There are plenty of other restaurants that would appreciate your business and treat you much better. Just a tourist trap. Don't waste your time or money!!!! more

We were taken right to a table on the beach and got to eat with our feet in the sand. The service was surprisingly slow seeing as the place was not too crowded, but it was lunch... more

The Beach Restaurant at Paradise Cove was one of my favorite places during my trip in April 2008. I loved the relaxed atmosphere. I just went there to sit out on in the sun, I didn't have to eat or drink anything, but of cause I did. The beach wasn't too crowed, the waiters were nice and helpful and the... more

My friend from Riverside drove us to lunch at this old, traditional, beach restaurant with superb "fish and chips", guacamole, and salads... not a lot of choices for a vegetarian, but he had a good salad... the portions are huge, enough for 2-3 people... the ambiance is great, it is noisy and busy but a fun vibe, with great photos... more

I heard alot about this place and was excited to go there. I went for the dining experience first then the beach. The restaurant was SO NOISY and crowded, it was not relaxing. It was just the opposite. I wanted to get out of there as fast as possible. The food was good tho. The cole slaw was exceptionally good.... more
