There are also a lot of women rooting for the home team alongside the men. They offer half price pool every Sunday and Monday and free tables for parties of eight or more till 9p.

Shabu Shabu, one of the most popular Japanese eateries in Santa Ana, is also rumored to feature a fantastic and impressive sake collection. Located on 17th Street, the charming restaurant, done up with deep reds and oriental elements, welcomes and usually caters to large groups and families. The food menu, on the other hand, is built around the shabu shabu-style (Japanese hotpot) of cooking where the diners choose a main ingredient, usually a meat, and cook it in boiling water along with various other herbs, condiments and spices - the result is a truly delicious, exotic meal that the entire family create and can enjoy together! Although meat and poultry preparations such as kobe beef and rib-eye shabu shabu are highly recommended, their vegan and vegetarian selections are quite delectable as well. Don't forget to complement this wonderful meal, with one of their sake drinks; take the help the courteous waitstaff if necessary - they'll be happy to help!

Treat your palate to bold and flavorsome pan Asian fusion cuisine at Nova Kitchen & Bar. This restaurant features a unique theme that attributes great importance to 5 elements namely, Fire, Water, Earth, Wood and Metal. There are multiple dining rooms for you to choose from with each room featuring the theme of a specific element. Dining at the fire room is highly recommended. Oenophiles and those wishing to relish signature cocktails must opt for the secret cocktail menu. It is a sin to leave this place without trying their decadent sushi and if you are a sushi fan, you must dine at the Water Dining room since it contains a sushi bar. However, if you are not too much into themes and just wish to enjoy some fresh air, you can dine at the patio. Step into the karaoke room/speakeasy if you wish to unleash the singer within you.
Located in Huntington Beach, the city by the sea, Marlin Bar & Grill is an absolute fun place to hang out with friends. The first things to notice about this place are Hawaiian-style decor and the bar; it's impressively stocked with the best beer and wine in the city. The talented staff also churns out delicious cocktails. The food is reasonably priced, but mostly consists of sandwiches, nachos and hot dogs so you can't exactly have a five-course meal here. However, they do have some really good proportions, the Football Breakfast Specials are particularly filling. The kitchen is open till 10pm, but please call for the bar timings.
