A recent hobby I have picked up is finding the best and cutest places to eat at in OC and LA County. I thoroughly enjoy not only a great meal, but also a cute place where I can fantasize about being Emma Chamberlain on a night out. Personally, I find the food tastes even better when the vibes of the restaurant are aesthetically pleasing—which is why I have compiled a list of the most worthy restaurants of your time on a day out.

1. Cucina Enoteca—Fashion Island, Costa Mesa

For those that know me, this is an obvious first choice. Not only do they have the best Italian food, but the decorations in the restaurant also make me feel like I am out to dinner with Kris Jenner. Pro tip: order the Burrata +cherry tomato appetize—it will change your life. I once ate here three times in one week because it is that good.

2. Coffee Dose Café—Costa Mesa

For the coffee lovers out there, this super cute café serves everything from lattes, to hot teas, to breakfast sandwiches. And, of course, the interior design of this places is so unique and fun that it takes all of my stress away. I seriously recommend that every coffee person gets out and tries this super cute café.

3. De La Nonna—Los Angeles

From my extensive research, this place has the best pizzas in town. Not only are their pizza shapes unique, but the floor inside this resturaunt is beautiful. Now, though I have never been, I have seen several educated reviews (the girlies on TikTok), and have deemed it a must-try. I mean, just look how cute the booths would be to for pictures.

4. Ka’teen—Los Angeles

This place has one of the most gorgeous outside seating areas I have ever seen. Along with a nice dim-light dinner, Ka’teen puts a spin on a coastal Mexican food with tacos, lamb, and carne asada ribeye. Not only is Ka’teen’s food extremely appetizing, but the seating area vibes are absolutely perfection.

5. Beachwood Café—Los Angeles

Now, I may be biased on this one because I am a devoted Harry Styles fan, but I love this café. Harry Styles had every right to put this resturaunt in his song, and I thank him everyday for introducing me to it. Every time I visit the beloved Beachwood café, I still stare at the wallpaper and flooring for the majority of the time. The place is very colorful and always filled with Harry Styles fans, plus they have very cute bathrooms, too. I have never had something on their menu that I did not like. This is definitely a must-try from me.

In no way am I forcing you to try any of these places, but I am also definetly forcing you to try these places. Take the opportunity of this four-day weekend to try out some of these pretty resturaunt.
