Need an OC Beachside Restaurant with Private Function Room?

Question

Looking for a private room that holds either 30 or 60 people restaurant-seating-style which very close to the beach, perferably with view. I'm planning on a simple wedding which just needs to be held in the private dining area of a restaurant. Newport Beach, Laguna Beach, Balboa Peninsula, Dana Point, Monarch Beach, or any areas surrounding would be great.

Answer 1

Villa Nova has an upstairs area that is available for reserving for that number of people - it's in Newport Beach on the water with a view - Italian Food

I'm not sure if Billy's or Rusty Pelican on PCH in Newport have a private room, but they very well might - I would call both of them - good food!

Parker's Lighthouse in Long Beach is a nice seafood restaurant that has an upstairs area -you'd want to go look at it first though.

McKenna's on the Bay is in the Long Beach Marina and it's steak and seafood and I believe they have a private room.

The Harborside Pavillion in Balboa is really nice and you can reserve for a certain amount of people and if you have more than 50, you can reserve the upstairs for $500- it's really nice and right on the water - you can also have your ceremony here...

I think any of those places would work - but you should definitely go look to see what the feel of each place is to see what would fit your reception/wedding plans

Answer 2

the beach comber possibly/ mastro's ocean club

Answer 3

in Dana Point:

The Chart House sits up on the bluffs overlooking the harbor.  Great views.  http://www.chart-house.com/

The Beach House is on the island in the harbor, and I think is supposed to be pretty reasonable for private events.

The Wind and Sea is at Dana harbor as well.
