\"Huntington<\/p>\n

With stunning sunsets over the Pacific Ocean as a back drop and a fun-loving, surf and sand worshiping, beach sports mecca Huntington Beach is the perfect destination for an evening out. As a long-time resident of Huntington Beach, aka Surf City USA, and one who eats and drinks around town far more than I probably should, I have personally experienced all five of these fine establishments and am confident in sharing them with you.<\/p>\n

\"SeaLegs<\/p>\n

SeaLegs<\/b>\u00a0Wine Bar & Restaurant<\/strong> – Chill out with a glass of wine, craft beer, or one of SeaLeg’s<\/a> handcrafted cocktails and let the lively soundtrack set the mood while you decide which of the tempting small plates to savor first. Most romantic spot? The banquettes and low tables in the lounge area are perfect for a more intimate t\u00eate-\u00e0-t\u00eate.<\/span><\/p>\n
