Brunch recs
I'm taking my parents to brunch on Sunday, and I'd like to go somewhere new.
This is what I'm looking for:
Newport/CM area (I'd love to go somewhere by the water, but if not, somewhere with a cool atmosphere)
Affordable / not too $$ (I'm paying, after all 
)
I'd love somewhere with bottomless champagne
I've taken them to: Woody's Wharf, El Torito Grill, True Food Kitchen, Billys, Plums
I feel like 3 Thirty 3 is going to be too much of a scene for my parents. I was thinking about Sol right next to 3 Thirty 3, but I'm not wild about the menu.
Any ideas for me?
Re: Brunch recs
Brunch without bottomless champagne isn't brunch, IMHO.
We like sitting upstairs at Rusty Pelican.
I know you want CM/NB but Tantalum in LB has a very reasonable brunch. They've changed the menu a bit but champagne is bottomless with entree purchase $12-20ish/plate. The view is great.
APK had a brunch at this amazing location.. good food and totally beach front. However, 1) I can't remember the name
and two I think it was in Laguna Beach.
I'm no help.
What about Lido Deck? I've never been but have heard good things about it.
The Lido Deck Newports Water Front Dining Wine Bar & Restaurant
3420 Via Oporto Suite 101, Newport Beach, CA 92663 (949) 673-9500 () ?Thanks for the recs everyone.
We decided on Back Bay Restaurant.
