OB isn’t just a home for a, “No shirt, no shoes, no problem” attitude, it’s also home to (dare we say) the best fish tacos in town at South Beach Bar & Grill at the end of Newport Ave. The fresh air, cold beer, and fish tacos is a hard combination to beat, especially if you can time it with the prime oceanfront view of sunset.
If you’re REALLY hungry and want to make your meal into a game, check out the Andy’s Advice section for how to make this date a fish taco taste-off. Separately, visit OB on Thursdays from 4-8pm if you want to time this with the farmer’s market.
Restaurant – check hours for fall/winter
There’s a parking lot right next to South Beach. If it’s full for some reason, remember yellow-curb street parking is fair game after 6pm.
