Best Restaurants for People Watching in Corona del Mar

Rothchild is one of the more underrated restaurants in CDM, highly recommended. The food and service are absolutely great.

Great Food, Great Ambiance, Great music, and Great service!

Ambience was great (we sat on the patio, there were heaters and a fire pit), our server Jenny was delightful, and the food, both presentation and taste, was wonderful! (We had the truffle fries, steak & tuna sushi, and the molton lava cake.) The patio wasn’t very busy, as it was a Monday night. Everything was top notch, right down to the glass of champagne when we arrived! Love that! We’ll definitely come back again!

Love Bluefin for its delicious sushi! The service is pretty good, except the waitstaff needs to be a little more attentive about water refills. Sushi makes people pretty thirsty and we had to ask for our waters to be refilled. My biggest complaint about this restaurant is that in the wintertime the temperature is a little too warm. Please be a little less generous with the heat. Thank you!

As always, dinner was unbelievable. Every member of my family chooses Sushi Roku for their special occasion and every single time, it is unbelievable. It is the most consistent experience we have at any restaurant. The food and service is incredible. We truly order the exact same thing every time which you would think would get old but it doesn't. We start with Miso soup and edamame. Then we have the Brussels Sprout chips and Shishito Peppers. We close out with a lot of orders of yellowtail which truly could count as dessert, albacore, spicy tuna Hanabi and a Tuna Jalapeno roll.
