    If I could give more than five stars to ocean 48 I absolutely would. The restaurant itself is absolutely beautiful. Service was extraordinary from being greeted at the front door to the host stand to the servers who waited on us. We were seated in a private Booth overlooking the kitchen. So fun! For appetizers, we got the hanging bacon, which was one of the best things I’ve ever tasted and the heirloom tomato and crab salad, which was delicious. Steaks were cooked to perfection and their whipped potatoes are creamy and delicious. And let’s not forget the amazing desserts. We had the peanut butter pie and the Keylime pie, and both were truly wonderful. And last, but not least the drinks,. We had cocktails and wine all in all this was a 10 star meal and we can’t wait to go back.

    If you haven’t been to the new Restoration Hardware at Fashion Island yet, you’re missing out! This place is like a Pinterest board come to life, with every level designed with the most stunning furniture. But the real treat is at the top —the RH Ocean Grill. This rooftop restaurant is a masterpiece, with an open kitchen concept and breathtaking views of the ocean. We kicked things off with some refreshing Aperol Spritzes and they were perfect. Shout out to Carson for being the best server. The crispy artichoke was a first for me—so unique, crunchy and delicious, and it came with a rosemary aioli that I could’ve drank it on its own. We ordered the RH burger for the kids and they absolutely devoured it I couldn’t resist the lobster roll, which was buttery, loaded with chunks of lobster. So so good! The Chinese chicken salad was another hit, with a fantastic dressing and crispy fried noodles that added the perfect crunch. It didn’t last long on the table! Whether you’re shopping, dining or just soaking in the vibe, this new RH is the ultimate spot for a fabulous day out!

    Dave served us at the bar on New Year’s Day and he really went out of his way to make our visit perfect… and everything was amazing. The Mac & cheese, fried chicken sandwich and shrimp pasta were literally some of best food we’ve had for a long time. Flawless quality chicken, loved every bite… we will be back!
