Inspired by Mexico’s West Coast cuisine, Las Brisas unveiled its newly remodeled Seaside Cantina in Laguna Beach, with improvements and enhancements designed to offer guests a vacation and resort-like feel. Among the many new features, Las Brisas increased the cantina and lounge space offering more seats and views of the ocean. A refrigerated wine room with custom racks that can hold 800 bottles of wine is at the end of a new 65-foot bar, featuring a custom-made bar top made from Koa wood.

The cantina renovations also brought an unparalleled selection of specialty margaritas and hand-crafted cocktails that were added to the menu, including the Top of the World margarita. As the gold standard of margaritas, this margarita contains Patrón Platinum, Grand Marnier Cuvée du Centenaire, scratch-made sweet & sour, blood orange sour, and a red alaea salt rim. Other cocktails include the Laguna Pearl, a special and rare find of Roca Patrón Silver, Hennessy, Patrón Citrónge, scratch-made sweet & sour, simple syrup, a black salt rim, and the hand-crafted Mojito Tropical, made with Bacardi pineapple-fusion rum, pineapple juice, lime juice, sugar water, fresh mint, shaved coconut, and a splash of Sprite.

Overlooking the Pacific Ocean and Laguna Beach coastline, Las Brisas is a Southern California landmark. Originally errected as the Victor Hugo Inn, the property was christened Las Brisas in 1979. It would soon become a first class sea-to-table culinary destination. Las Brisas infuses the best of Californian cuisine with authentic Mexican recipes by adding simple ingredients to the region’s wealth of fresh seafood.
