The term "hidden gem" gets thrown around pretty loosely, but they don't get much more tucked away than the Galley Cafe, which is in the middle of a residential neighborhood.
I only know of this spot because Newport Beach is part of my beat; otherwise, can't say I ever would have stumbled across the 57-year-old diner, which is three turns off PCH, amid one of the city's most exclusive neighborhoods, at the end of a dead-end street, right on a public marina.
The set-up is classic - big comfy booths and maybe a dozen seats right at the counter - and so is the menu, featuring a big selection of home-style breakfast, lunch and dinner favorites.

Has anyone tried it out?
