    Traditional breakfast
    Will B.

    We stayed at the Kimpton Shorebreak Hotel for 3 nights. We ate breakfast each morning on the patio looking towards the beach. What a great view for breakfast. We had the pleasure of 4 different staff members who took great care of us (one visit was for a snack and a couple of cold beverages). Each meal was amazing. We tried a few things but went back to the breakfast tacos on our last day. Outstanding food and service, thank you.

    Had the pleasure of attending a Yelp event here, and was throughly impressed with the food, drinks, service and ambiance - so I decided to return! It happened to be restaurant week so there were items that were not on the regular menu yet. Shrimp & Crab Claw Scampi (5/5) - Plump shrimp, crab claw, all married in a white wine butter cream sauce. It was so delicious! I cleared my dish without hesitation. White Fish Piccata (5/5) - The fish tasted fresh! The sauce was almost similar to the scampi, but lighter. Hangar Steak & Ravioli (5/5) - The steak was cooked a perfectly medium rare! The truffle butter sauce really tied everything together. I would 100% order this again! Hummingbird Cake (4/5) - Tasted similar to a carrot cake. The cake felt a little too rich for me, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. Their drinks are always on point! I had their mango margarita and it was so refreshing. Overall, I would come back to enjoy the views, live music, and delicious food!

The parking setup was convenient with underground parking, and the restaurant is able to validate your parking as well. There's also an elevator that brings you directly to the front of the restaurant, which is connected to a hotel. The decor had a really nice beachy aesthetic, and there were even some views of the ocean. It's also located about a 10-minute walk from the pier, which made the area feel fun and relaxing. The service throughout the meal was friendly, and the food overall was good with a nice variety of options for the table. At the end of the meal, we were also given a complimentary dessert that was specially designed by the pastry chef. Unfortunately, she wasn't there at the time, so we weren't able to ask exactly what was in it, but the server mentioned it was made with toffee. Overall, it was a nice spot for a celebration with good food, friendly service, and a great atmosphere near the beach. Looking forward to coming back again and maybe giving their dinner menu a try next time.

    Food and drinks are so good! The service was great and the atmosphere was lovely. Perfect way to start the afternoon!

    Hideaway Burger
    Brigitte M.

    Was craving some type of lettuce wrap, and came here. I got the Lao wraps, and my boyfriend got the hideaway burger. For the wraps, I was hoping for more fresh ingredients, but it ended up being a heavier dish due to the sheer amount of rice. Would've loved more sausage and fresh greens. Burger was average, with the pickles being the best thing on the burger. Fries were good. Semi view of beach, if you sit outside, but connected to the kimpton. Most likely won't be back.

    Shrimp Bucatini

    This was the best way to end my week and start my weekend. My parents and I visited on a Friday night and it wasn't too busy, which we loved. We came right around sunset so the weather and views were stunning. We decided to dine inside and the coastal interior decor and beach ambiance of the place were very well done. We ordered the guacamole, tuna tartare, and buttermilk fried chicken bao bun. They're most known for the latter but the bun itself didn't cut it for me, although the sauce and chicken on it were good. My favorite of the three was the tuna tartare which surprised me because of how fresh the fish was. I didn't have high expectations for the hideaway burger but I ended up enjoying it so much that I finished the whole thing. The burger was flavorful and it even had a really thick slice of yellow tomato which I thought was pineapple at first. They have a myriad of cocktails to choose from but the OC socialite is a must if that's up your alley. The service was great and they checked up on us often so we felt taken care of and comfortable.

    Nice place for brunch. It's attached to a hotel and there is a nice bar and patio overlooking the beach. We sat in the patio and ordered a cappuccino and Eggs Benedict. Everything on the menu is good. We will definitely be back to try the other food options. Happy Yelping!

    South of the border short rib tacos
    Danielle P.

    Another stellar experience here! Very accommodating for our large group. It was kind of chilly inside and our waiter even brought a few blankets over for us. This time I got the blackened mahi mahi tacos with a side of fruit. They give you the option of berries or melon, and I went with berries. Everything was delicious! Thank you for a great time, Pacific Hideaway!

    Pacific Hideaway is a great rooftop place to stop by for a small bite. Their dishes are gorgeously decorated. Today our experience wasnt the greatest. First, we walked in to a cozy place and they iffered us a table...The table was shaking due to uneven surface. The host tried to fix it but it didnt work. She didnt offer us a new table, i was the one who asked. The other thing that it was lil bit off, when they brought the water they didn't put inside if me it was lil bit far away from where i sit...For fixing table they were using same coaster that they were putting in table for our glasses! This is what we ordered: * Shrimp Cocktails -- $18.00 * Ceviche -- $23.00 * HH Beer -- $7.00 Subtotal: $48.00 Tax: $3.72 Total: $51.72 Pricewas for what we got it was lil bit high...Te shrimp cocktail was ok but the shrimp was too frozen! It didnt looklike a fresh one. There is parking downstairs and dont forget to validate your ticket in restaurant! first 2 hours but after that there is a charge for every twenty minute so be cautious!

    Chicken tacos
    Melody G.

    Again, one of my fave brunch spots. Always great ambiance and great food. The chicken tacos seemed a bit bland this go around, but still not enough to ding the stars. Everything overall outweighs it.

    First off, I'd like to give a major shout out to our server, Bianca! She managed our large group and was even willing to split the check 6 ways! Pacific Hideaway is the restaurant connected to The Kimpton in Newport Beach. It is upstairs and has a great view of the beach on their patio. We came on a Wednesday evening around 6pm and I was surprised that they even had a DJ outside too. The inside decor is very bright and inviting. I love the mural and all the fun details - like the booths that look like swings. Super cool! Our group came here because we saw zero proof mocktails on their menu and were excited. They use Seedlip non-alcoholic spirits and I loved it. I got the passion fruit mockarita and it was so refreshing (but a little on the sour side). All of the food was absolutely amazing. I loved the buratta and tomato appetizer, but I wish it had a bit more bread. Their menu is mainly meat and fish, and as a Vegetarian, I'd love to see some more innovative options that don't include meat. Maybe some tempeh tacos, or even jackfruit. Also, for the mocktails, they were pretty expensive. Typically I expect paying about 1/2 or even a 1/3 of what a real alcoholic beverage costs. Ultimately Pacific Hideaway was great food, drinks, service and views! Highly recommend!

    Avocado toast
    Anne-Marie N.

    Really enjoyed the views, ambience, and staff. Everyone was attentive and made sure we were comfortable and had whatever we needed. Brunch was great. Food was fresh and tasty. The day was beautiful. Sat in the patio, it was a little warm and sunny, but the umbrellas did their job. The indoors looked really pleasant, but we opted for the outdoors. Would go back. Really nice how close it is to the pier. Super convenient if you are doing a beach or boardwalk activity.

    National Margarita Day!

    Such a fun vibe, quintessential beach scene. Beautiful beach views & great service. Lucked out brunching on National Margarita Day. Oh yes, the food is good too!

And I am SO glad we did because everything about our experience was seriously a 10/10! From the moment we walked in, the customer service was amazing. The gentleman at the front greeted us and escorted us to our table, and right away we felt welcomed and comfortable. Our server, Quang, was absolutely the sweetest! He was so friendly, outgoing, attentive, and helpful, especially when it came to giving us recommendations since it was our first time there. He had such a positive energy and really made our experience even better. And the FOOD!!! If I could give it 1,000/10, I seriously would. We tried the Ube Cloud, Vietnamese Iced Coffee, Garlic Parmesan Fries, Spicy Shrimp Wontons, Corn Ribs, Garlic Butter Prawns, and Filet Garlic Noodles, and honestly, there wasn't ONE thing we didn't enjoy. Everything was full of flavor and absolutely delicious. But what really stood out to us was that it wasn't just the food -- it was the entire experience. The staff, the atmosphere, the music, and just the overall vibe made us feel so comfortable and welcomed. The music they were playing was amazing too! My friend and I were enjoying ourselves, eating good food, listening to good music, and just having such a great time. The whole place honestly had such a warm, homey feeling to it. When we were leaving, the gentleman who had greeted and seated us earlier ended up having a whole conversation with my friend and me. He was so sweet and personable! He mentioned that they may be opening a location in Culver City, and I told him I really hope they do because that would be much closer to home for me. I was even joking with him that if they open one, they need to bring the whole staff from this location over there too because everyone here was THAT amazing. At the same time, even if there ends up being a location closer to me, I would honestly still make the drive back to this one. When you visit somewhere for the first time and have such a great experience, that location becomes special. You can visit the same restaurant somewhere else, but the people, atmosphere, and experience aren't necessarily going to feel the same. This location definitely left that kind of impression on us. I really hope this review reaches management because the staff here deserves the recognition. Everyone we interacted with was wonderful, and Quang especially took such great care of us. This was our first time at VOX Kitchen, but it DEFINITELY won't be our last. We're already talking about coming back and bringing our family and more of our friends so we can all enjoy it together. 10/10 food. 10/10 service. 10/10 atmosphere. 10/10 experience.
