Yes, the Martinis Are $6
Let’s address the part you already screenshotted: $6 martinis.
Martini Club is bringing ABSOLUT Vodka to SET for a brunch dedicated to one of the most iconic cocktails behind the bar. Order one with brunch, stay for another round, and accept that your Saturday afternoon plans may need to remain flexible.
It’s a natural fit for SET’s cocktail program, where drinks are as much a part of the experience as what’s coming out of the kitchen.

The Martini Meal Special Comes with a Very Good Souvenir
For something extra, order SET’s featured Martini Meal Special.
Along with the meal, you’ll receive a voucher for a customized martini coupe that will be engraved live on-site during the event. Once it’s personalized, it’s yours to take home.
A custom martini glass from a Saturday spent drinking martinis in Newport Beach? Much better than another tote bag.
It’s part cocktail, part keepsake, and a pretty convincing reason to make Martini Club more than a quick brunch stop.
Brunch, but with a Soundtrack
Martini Club isn’t just putting a special drink on the menu and calling it an event.
A live DJ will soundtrack the afternoon, while a photo booth gives the group chat fresh material before the second martini arrives.
SET’s garden-inspired patio makes an especially good backdrop for the occasion. Lush greenery and the Newport Beach sunshine give daytime brunch a relaxed feel, while the restaurant’s polished interior offers something a little moodier.
It’s exactly the kind of setting that has made SET a go-to for group dining in Newport Beach, birthdays, weekend catch-ups, and brunches that have no intention of ending early.
What to Eat at Martini Club
A $6 martini may get your attention, but this is still brunch at a steakhouse in Newport Beach.
SET approaches brunch with the same attention to ingredients and presentation that defines its dinner service. That means you’re not limited to the predictable breakfast-only formula when it’s time to order.
The restaurant’s broader identity brings together premium steak in Newport Beach, fresh seafood, and sushi in Newport Beach, giving a table of very different appetites plenty to work with.

Make a Newport Beach Day Out of It
Martini Club wraps at 2:30 PM, which leaves plenty of Saturday ahead.
Head to nearby Fashion Island for a little post-brunch shopping, make your way toward the coast, or keep the afternoon decidedly unproductive. That’s sort of the point.
For shopping, events, and what’s happening nearby, visit Fashion Island.
If the coast is calling afterward, Visit Newport Beach has guides to local beaches, neighborhoods, and things to do around the city.
And for a quieter afternoon, the gardens and seasonal displays at Sherman Library & Gardens make an easy local stop.
Why Martini Club Belongs on Your September Calendar
There are plenty of places to find brunch in Newport Beach. Martini Club is for the Saturdays when brunch needs to be a little more interesting.

Come for brunch. Stay for another martini. Leave with something personalized to remember it by.
