Villa Nova
(Restaurants - Italian)
3131 W Coast Hwy, Newport Beach  92663 • 949-642-7880
Distance: ~4.76 mi from Fairmont Newport Beach
        Description: Overlooking Newport Harbor, this well-established Italian eatery has been around since 1933 and gets high marks from area romantics who laud its stunning views, immaculately appointed tables, and award-winning domestic and international wines. It was at Villa Nova that Joe DiMaggio took Marilyn Monroe on a blind date and where Vincent Minelli proposed to Judy Garland. Of course, the fare is nothing short of spectacular thanks to specialties like osso bucco with risotto Milanese, lamb chops with rosemary, and scallopine saltimbocca in white wine-mushroom sauce. The Piano Bar features live music seven nights a week.
