You do, in fact, realize that the "Southern California" area encompasses thousands of square miles, and takes at the very least 2 hours to drive across?

Now, be more specific with the following:

1. Budget
2. Food Type
3. Ambiance (calm, ocean view, trendy, people-watching, etc.)
4. LOCATION (valley, westside, mid-town, pasadena, south bay, san gabriel, san diego, riverside, inland empire, etc..)

so where in "Somewhere near LA" do you live in?....if you're talking about downtown, there's a great place near the new kodak theatre...shiet..i forgot the name, but..

there's also a really spiffy cool upscale resturaunt on the top of the beneventour (sp?!?!!! how to spell it?!) that rotates very slowly or something...

you can always go to chili's..or red lobster heheheh

coppacabana's in pomona on the top of the hill (if you're into cuban food), right off the 10...

the one at the top of the bonaventure is cool too...

i always thought Waters restaurant here in irvine looked like a nice place... i know for a fact that Vessia here in irvine is a damn nice italian place.
