Walking into Mozambique Steakhouse Bar and Lounge, you know this will be different when you are greeted by talking parrots and toucans. Here are my top 10 reasons why I love Mozambique in Laguna Beach:
10. Valet Parking
It is only $5. You can also find parking on your own near the restaurant, but if you do, I would also buy a lottery ticket because it is your lucky day!
9. History
Prior to being a steakhouse, this restaurant served Mexican food and was called “Tortilla Flats,” named after the book John Steinbeck wrote while living in Laguna Beach.
8. Ten HD Screens
Watch your favorite sports team win from one of many rooms offering flat screen TV's.
7. Group Dining and Special Events
Because real estate is at a premium in Laguna Beach, there are not many restaurants with capacity for large groups. There is plenty of room for weddings and corporate events.
6. Peri-Peri Spice
This Swahili word for 'pepper pepper' is inspired from the restaurant's African roots. Mozambique is known for its steaks, but the Peri-Peri prawns are on must try on the menu.
5. Pet-friendly
In Laguna Beach, dogs are very much a part of our lives. You can dine with your pooch in the Garden Patio or the Veranda Rooftop.
4. Happy Hours
Drinks and food are discounted at certain times on different floors of the restaurant. I suggest calling the restaurant for details as they may change with the seasons.
3. Safe Ride
Mozambique offers free pick up and drops-offs within 3 miles of the restaurant. This will come in handy after partaking in reason #4.
2. Veranda Rooftop
The breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean highlight this newly built rooftop. This is the perfect place to enjoy a cocktail at sunset!
1. Live Music
If you are looking to get your groove on, Reggae, Blues and Caribbean music dominate their schedule. Come in to enjoy the music, or watch it live, streaming from their website at www.MozambiqueOC.com.
