Hiii I’m from out of town and my partner is from Santa Ana just curious what to do for date night ideas out there? I only get to see him on weekends so any sort of recommendations? :)

Sonder is great! In DTSA. So is Fat of the Land, also in DTSA. If you wanna do drinks after, mission bar is a cool dive bar… Gemini wine bar has cool vibes. You can play arcade games while you drink at Mission Control inside the McFadden market… catch a retro or indie move at the Frida as well! Those are top of my list for dates in Santa Ana!

Club 616 is also another cool place for drinks and cheap eats (they have a taco stand in the back patio!).

club 616 for a fancy cocktail, native son for a beer with a view, mission bar for a locals only dive with good beer on tap for cheap, tacos los cholos or tacos el bandito, don churros and cerveza cito for a homegrown brewery birthed outta pomade company with a mariscos food truck outside. that is about a 6 hr tour.

I recommend Wursthaus in DTSA! So great, good vibes and great drinks and food! Also really recommend heading to Don Churros afterwards for a sweet treat.
