South Coast Plaza Reopens

The South Coast Plaza in Costa Mesa reopened Aug. 31 along with many Southern California indoor malls after the state relaxed some of its COVID-19 business restrictions.

South Coast Plaza’s shopping mall has more than 100 shops and 20 restaurants. Mall hours will be 11 a.m.-7 p.m. daily except Sunday, when it will be open noon-7 p.m.

Last week, the state announced revamped business limitations allowing businesses such as indoor malls to reopen in much of California, depending on local coronavirus trends and municipal mandates. Malls in Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties can reopen, but not in Los Angeles County.
