• Southeast Asian • Huntington Beach
Booked 30 times today
Behind an unmarked door adjacent to the wine room, guests are transported to District 1 (China Town) in Saigon via Blackhouse’s 28-seat restaurant-within-a-restaurant, LSXO. A spinoff of the Little Sister brand (Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach & Downtown Los Angeles), LSXO is love letter to the culture, heritage, and lineage of Vietnam (Vuong’s relatives hail from the region). While Little Sister is known for its French Vietnamese menu, LSXO follows the same Southeast Asian inspiration with a more refined feel. “There is no signage for LSXO—you can spot the entrance of it tucked into a section inside Bluegold, but you’ll have to know it’s there. While Bluegold is light, bright, and airy, LSXO is its darker, edgier little sister,” says Vuong. “Both restaurants operate out of the same kitchen, though the menus are completely different. LSXO offers straight-up, honest, home-style Vietnamese cuisine—the type of food I grew up eating with my grandparents in the San Gabriel Valley

Westwood Coast is an elevated take on the country-music themed steakhouse, bar and lounge. We celebrate our love for country music and lifestyle by serving amazing food, elevated cocktails and fun country entertainment. We're a whiskey & bourbon lovers bar, featuring 100+ bottles on the back bar and select cask-picks available by the bottle, to our Smoked Spirit Society members. Westwood Coast isn’t stuffy. While sharing a name with our San Francisco based sister restaurant, we’ve leveled up the food and the decor while bringing the same focus on cocktails, music, and entertainment to a beautiful space on the sunlit corner of Newport and Harbor. A stone's throw from the beaches in Orange County, Westwood Coast is where Orange County goes to get its country on.
