Looking to start your day with a decadent breakfast? For all you early risers out there like me, Pacific Hideaway in Huntington beach is open earlier than most restaurants in the area. Stop in for a brunch bite after your morning workout or walk on the beach. Or, if you are like me and just nursing a slight hangover and desperately needing food.
Looking for lunch or dinner? They have that, too. Wash the sand off your feet and stop in for a cocktail during happy hour or an entrée for dinner. Regardless of what you are in the mood for, you will find enough here to satisfy your cravings. This post outlines three reasons why Pacific Hideaway in Huntington Beach is an amazing restaurant and I cannot wait to visit again.

1. The Food
I stumbled across Pacific Hideaway when I was starving and looking for breakfast spots. When I saw the pictures of the braised beef tacos, I knew I had to stop in. On the first morning of our trip, we had reservations.

The braised beef tacos exceeded my expectations. Horseradish crema was drizzled on top along with cilantro lime coleslaw. I am very anti-horseradish. This dish converted me a little bit because the taste complimented the tacos well.
We also ordered the Hideaway Hash Benny. The coconut rice and poached egg complimented everything else in the bowl and we could not eat it fast enough. The waitress came by with their house-made bang bang sauce that we became obsessed with. I ended up putting it on all of our meals.

3. The Patio
The patio at Pacific Hideaway overlooks 5th Avenue and Pacific Coast Highway. There are several shops across the street and visitors walking around. The patio opens to the restaurant so you can easily walk in and out. There are umbrellas to provide shade (and even blocked us from the rain when we visited!). There are heaters should the morning or night be a chilly one.
4. The Aesthetic
Walking into Pacific Hideout in Huntington Beach maintains the seashore vibe. With neutral colors and bohemian décor, the restaurant truly is a hideaway. You do not feel like you are in the middle of a hotel overlooking 5th Avenue.
5. The Location
Pacific Hideaway is located in the Kimpton Shorebreak Resort in Huntington Beach. We got a little lost when we visited so I will tell you how to find this delightful restaurant. If your maps is anything like mine, it might lead you to an address on the corner Pacific Coast Highway and 5th Avenue. You will enter on 5th Avenue. After climbing a flight of stairs, you should be welcomed by the host stand. Even after getting lost, I was over the moon when we sat down and saw the menu.
