I wore It's a fancy venue, but people wear everything from formal to jeans. I think it depends on how close to the stage your seat is..
I wore a silk suit and my husband wore a dress jacket and pants. People are dressing rather sloppy for the theater lately. It is a special place and I enjoy seeing the folks dressed up. It makes it seem more special..

Mitsua Market on Paularino, 1.5 blocks east of Bristol on the South side of the 405 has a great food court with all kinds of Japanese Food available. The market has a great "to-go" sushi fare and in the early evening most of the sushi, made that afternoon, is marked down for a quick sale. I especially like the noodle shop closest to the check out stands of the Market, and their spicy Pork Noodles are terrific. More expensive and the best in the food court is the noodle shop in the middle of the court, about 3 stalls to the right of the first noodle shop, to the right of it, is a stall that has a great tempura, teriyaki combo, that I've enjoyed for years. Mitsua Market has wonderful desserts with shops specializing in frozen mochi and pastries, as well as fare only found in Japan. In fact, going to Mitsua is to be transported to an authentic Japanese SuperMarket and Food Court.

SEASONS RESTAURANT is a great newer restaurant, right across the street from the OCPAC at South Coast Plaza. They serve farm to table small plates that are simply wonderful. I especially enjoy the Main Lobster tail that can be ordered as an entree or side dish (I order 2 for dinner!) Make sure to get reservations or be prepared to wait 30_ minutes to get a table.

Ortica pizzeria on Alton Bld.
Dinner at Pizzeria Ortica. Need to book a table, and make it around 5.45 or 6pm or you won't have time to eat before show. Great food.

We arrived in the area around 5:00 pm to eat before the 6:30 showing. Next time I'd prefer to arrive by 4:30 so that we're not rushing before the show.

Parking in the lot is close and $10. It was easy parking but there is a jam leaving the parking area. Others recommended to park at South Coast Plaza and walk across the street. I wore heels so I parked in the garage.

I wore a jumpsuit but my son and brother wore jeans. Some people were a little dressy..
