Description

Despite its location-in a storefront across from Newport Beach City Hall-Pescadou manages to impart a South-of-France feel with vibrant colors and eclectic table settings. You'll find traditional French dishes-frog legs and coq au vin-as well as such bistro fare as rib-eye steak, bouillabaisse and a variety of fish dishes.
