Pacific City: An Open-Air Dining Destination
By RA Monaco
If enjoying the ocean breezes and our sunny, dry, smog-free climate is part of your dining destination
calculus, then Pacific City promises to enhance the experience.
By designing the open-air dining, entertainment and shopping area away from the near proximity of
automobiles and widening spaces for foot-traffic—which often bottle-neck along our narrow Main
Street sidewalks—Pacific City restaurant tenants will become formidable competitors for open-air dining
dollars along our strand.
Open-air dining enthusiasts, who’ve made Main Street a popular destination, will soon have culinary
powerhouse options within an enjoyable walking distance. In alphabetical order, here’s the growing list
of Pacific City restaurant tenants looking to lure you toward their establishment with an enhanced
ambience and culinary experience.

fries, appetizers and more than 60 IPA beers on
tap, this restaurant may be a dream-come-true
for locals.
