Is it June already? Time to do our monthly restaurant roll call of who's new and who's gone. Notable openings this month include the resurrection of Disneyland's Tahitian Terrace in Tangaroa Terrace at the Disneyland Hotel, and Jeff Dugan's Portola Coffee Lab, which gets its own store in Costa Mesa.
