While I had every best intention to introduce a family member from the East Coast to the incredible views and pork sliders at Nelson's Terranea...well, you know what they say about the best laid plans.
Monday was the day. Perfect for patio seats nearthe Pacific. The sun was bright, the day was clear, and the weather was warm. However, on the East Coast, a blizzard was brewing. Before heading out, we checked online for flight info. Ugh. Ugh and double ugh. 45 minutes later - mission accomplished on a new flight schedule for Wed, however, the sun was about to setting. We agreed to go the next day.
Tuesdaywas cold and grey. Upon arrival to Terranea at the valet, announced Nelson's was closed due to a private party.
Undeterred to enjoy some of the best that PV has to offer , we headed a little further down the road to Trump's. It had been awhile. Even so, there was a perfect 4 top waiting for us - with a great view of the sunset. Better yet, there is a Happy Hour menu. Who knew? This was an easy call. We are a family of calamari lovers. Order a cold beer, calamari, fish tacos and chicken sliders. Wow. A smorgashborg of yumminness. Trump still has the best, perfectly breaded and cooked calamri rings and tentacles with spicy aoli sauce. While I do miss the bed of Asian slaw from several chef ago - it was still top notch. The fish tacos - 3 generous portions, fresh lettuce, sweet onion - really good! There were 4 blackened chicken sliders on each corner and a pile of fries in the middle of the plate. Generous portions! While good - the tacos and calamari were great and there was way too much food to finish.
We left very happy for the experience and knew another East Coast family member would really enjoy this. I also mentioned it to a couple of friends and neighbors so I can see more Trump in my future!
