“OPAH is a sure thing! I had the mahi mahi with the French onion soup -it was excellent! You get what you pay for & I would pay for this meal again & again! Kevin is an outstanding personable server & he is the reason we like to go! He brings professionalism to his work and is so knowledgeable. I would go to OPAH just to see him!“
“i came because "haha, funny peppinos pizza tower gif, haha" but it was actually really good. really good sauce and dough was chewy but soft, super good pizza for real. if yall is coming from mexico or from like i5 check this place out frfr on god no cap. also funny pizza tower hahahaha so funny“
“More like a fast food place than a dining experience. Food was done well the parking was sufficient everything was very clean and the staff was friendly. Every plate I seen looked done well nothing looked over sucked which tends to happen in these type of places. So I would say they’re on the top of the list for this type of a restaurant/food place.“
“Its great.. but you can make no adjustments without a $2 charge for each.. ie less rice and more veggie..and you get nothing like chips with your order unless you order a plate.. the pricing makes it $20 for a fast food meal.. If thats ok.. then the rest is great! We have always ❤️ Wahoos.. just never had such a wallet hit before.“
“Hands down the best experience in the surrounding area, by a long shot.Drinks delivered, vibe was right, and food crushed.Don’t skip the Chep Daily Soup, the Honey Butter cake or the Shrimp taquitos.Craig and Austen took the experience next level. ?“
“I rarely write reviews, but my experience here was so phenomenal that I feel it is necessary. Two friends and I went for a leisurely family style dinner and everything we ordered, from the drinks to the appetizers to the entrees, exceeded our expectations. Beyond that, everything came out impossibly fast, our server was stellar, and they gave us a complimentary dessert. I can't wait to go back.“
“Eddie V's is one of our favorite restaurants that we frequent throughout the year, drawn by their delectable cuisine and unparalleled service. Opting to celebrate our anniversary there on a Tuesday proved to be an excellent choice, as they surpassed our expectations, showering us with attention and care. This establishment holds a special place in our hearts due to the exceptional service provided by both the staff and management. The ambiance exudes positivity, complemented perfectly by the delicious food. Whenever we crave a perfectly tender filet, this is our go-to spot. The crab cakes never disappoint, and recently, we indulged in the exquisite lobster tacos. Despite our inclination to try multiple dishes, we rarely have room for dessert. However, on our anniversary, we were treated to a delightful surprise - the butter cake, both delicious and beautifully presented. It was the perfect ending to our meal. Thank you for crafting a truly memorable anniversary dinner experience. We wholeheartedly recommend Eddie V's for its exceptional food, service, and atmosphere!“
“What a wonderful experience. The macadamia encrusted halibut special was wonderful, but the star of the show was the seafood pasta. We were thinking about it throughout the weekend. The service here is so wonderful. Couldn't recommend this place more if I tried.“
“So after reading about this Hillstone copycat we finally decided to try it. Houston’s which is one of the Hillstone brands has changed their signature Tortilla Soup recipe and not liking the new version I decided to try the Coastal Kitchen version. I rate it a 9.5 copy of the original from Houston’s. It needed a little more cheese but was excellent in every other aspect and it alone will bring me back. The starter salad with the honey mustard dressing was on point and actually better than Houston’s. Our guests had the chowder which in every way resembled the Houston’s version. Their French Dip was enjoyed by our other guest and the fries were perfect. My wife’s blackened grouper sandwich was merely ok and quite frankly since most of the menu is an excellent Hillstone knockoff then I would suggest recreating the Gulfstream Gulf Coast Style Fish Sandwich. The only negative menu item we sampled was the Chicken BLT. It was not awful but the chicken was overcooked as was the bacon and it doesn’t even come close to competing with the Ding’s Crispy Chicken Sandwich at the Hillstone locations. I’m all for innovation and signature changes but if you’re going to do that then maintain the same high quality and taste standard for all the menu items. All of us agreed we will be back to try the rest of the menu for lunch and dinner. Service was excellent and the atmosphere although a little acoustically challenging was comfortable and inviting. I came close to rating this establishment five stars but they just fall a little short of that mark. Still well worth a visit and I hope to revise my rating in the future. Look out Hillstone you have a worthy challenger and that’s high praise in itself.“
“We celebrated my daughters 20th birthday. The service was amazing. Karcher our waiter was amazing, he was so attentive, explained the menu to us and had some amazing suggestions as well. Everything we ordered from appetizers to the desserts were amazing. Karcher was so thoughtful that upon us mentioning it was my daughters birthday he went above and beyond and brought her dessert with a birthday candle. Thank you so much.. She enjoyed it very much and we all did as well. From the Avina Family thank you South of Nick's - San Clemente for the amazing time. We will definitely return. 4/14/2024 Menu: Taquitos Caseros were tasty, Filet & Grilled Romaine was amazing, chicken flautas were yummy. Chipotle Dusted Sea Bass was my husbands favorite. El Vaquero was also a favorite. the drinks were yummy from the Strawberry lemonade, cokes, to the corona and the red wine to my favorite the cucumber margarita. :) The setting and the atmosphere was amazing.“
“First time going to this establishment I'm local I reserved for my anniversary they were really friendly was greeted at front sat down promptly waiter and staff was very attentive and friendly owner or manager was very friendly they gave us a free desert because it was our anniversary and thanked us for celebrating it in there establishment food was delicious had the chefs choice seafood and meat both very delicious my compliments to the chef ambient was nice very full but you are able to have a good conversation with your partner overall recommend this place to anyone also prices were good you get good value for your money.“
“Went for brunch date with my mom. Our server was fantastic , food was amazing, I had the baby back ribs, my mom had the streak, for appetizer we had asparagus fries and delved eggs with bacon. Definitely going back. Again our server was the sweetest lady!“
“Overall experience was great- our waiter was not overly attentive once he found out we would not be drinking and felt frustrated that we were not ready to order immediately once our final party member arrived. The food was really good and it was a bit noisy initially but quieted a bit as dinner went on.“
“We love Ironwood and frequent it regularly. One of the draws is Coty. An energetic, sweet, fun and always smiling manager. We will give the new guy a chance .... But I just can't see him being a positive addition. We tried to engage him last night ..but he just lacks the personality for a restaurant with so many young and energetic employees. Time will tell.“
“Great food! Super nice staff and very accommodating! We have a large and intimidating service dog, and they turned on heaters and gave us a private area on the patio! Staff made sure our entire party K9 included were enjoying themselves! Try the octopus taco!!!“
“Another fabulous dining experience at Brussels Bistro. We celebrated my husband's birthday here on the All You Can Eat Mussels night. He was in heaven. Our server, Abby, was excellent and lovely. This restaurant is a true gem in San Clemente.“
“This isn't your typical surf shack joint. Typical beach cafes don't serve beef short rib sandwiches. Much of their menu is a step above what you'd likely be expecting from a location like this. From the outside it looks unassuming and familiar. You walk up, order, find a spot and grub. As far as I can tell, you don't need shoes or a shirt just an appetite. It's not refined or snoody, it's just damn good.They season their chips. The lowly give-away that most places serve stale as low-cost hunger appeasement filler, is done fresh and treated with care. Putting forth effort into making the most basic parts of the menu delicious means they really want everything they put out to be delicious. The thought and care behind the quality of their items is often sought but rarely found. Also, the salsa with their chips is really bomb.You can't go wrong with the BBQ short rib sandwich, chowder fries, or fresh ceviche.“
“What a beautiful restaurant, overlooking the ocean and outside were fire pits and hanging lights. We watched the sail boats pass by and the sun slowly set. The food was absolutely delicious and the dessert was of Michelin starred quality. Our booking was at 5.30 and we left at 8.30 - the service was very slow - we'd been there half an hour before our food order was taken. And every course was slow to arrive. The staff were incredibly friendly and chatty. Would recommend as long as you don't mind a slow evening.“
“FIG continues to be one of the best restaurants in Orange County. High quality, interesting food choices. Carnivores and diabetics can be very happy with a wide-ranging menu offering many options. An extremely good Caesar Salad that an only be improved with the addition of anchovies (didn't get the memo?) Fish options are uniformly good. One recommendation would be to order each stage of the meal separately (i.e., finish the salad before you order the main course, etc.) You will enjoy it more, and it avoids the sometimes problem of main dishes arriving cold.“
“Great all -american fare,we are on the patio which is clean and relaxing our waitress Janel.was a doll,so helpful, attentive and together, explained how the dishes were prepared that we were interested in and just all together made our dining experience first class.I had the seafood bisque soup which was perfect,not much of it but it was delicious.The Swordfish entre with mash potatoes and sauteed vegetables was great,the, swordfish was prepared just right as were the vegetables and potatoes,just the right amount of seasoning and the vegetables sauteed in a sauce that was light and tasty.All I all the food,service and ambience were just right,I would suggest asking for Janel.as your waitress we returned for dinner a few days later,food was still just as good but our server was fine,but nowhere near as good as Janel.who was working that evening but was super busy with a bunch of other tables,but she helped us just because she could see we needed a couple of things and was close by and because she really is that good at her job and cares,am A -Class Person and waitress.This place is well worth the visit.Vegetarian options: Not a great place for vegetarians,I saw NO vegetarian or Vegan four way tasting offering.Parking: Saffire is definitely worth a visit,great food,not unreasonably priced,portions are honestly a little small for my liking(but that's me) but would highly recommend.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair ramp at both entrances,very easily accessible.“
“The food and service were terrific. I had the sole and the taste was amazing. My Finnish grandmother in Minnesota fried her freshly caught walleyed pike in lots of butter and there wasn't a more heavenly aroma or taste to be found. I haven't had fish that tasted like that since 1965, until Friday night 3/8/24. The farro that the fish was served on top of was excellent. The ambience reminds me of restaurants in Nevada City CA -- rustic, woodsy and salt of the earth. I highly recommend this restaurant for the quality of the food, the service, and the ambience.“
“Convenient parking may be available in front of restaurant. There are only a handful of tables with seating for about 36 people. Always full so reservations are recommended.The service is friendly and efficient. They’re very keen to ensure you enjoy your stay and your meal. The hospitality is top notch and we enjoyed our lunch. Our first time here and we are bookmarking this place to come back.The food is delicious, generous portions and meats are wonderfully well seasoned and tender.The decor is pleasant and comfortable. The restaurant is clean and well maintained. Great dining experience!“
“The atmosphere is very nice and comfortable, the service was excellent, and the food was superb. We started out with a buffalo mozzarella and tomato in an age, balsamic vinegar, and then shared an Osso Buco entrée between my wife and I. One of the best Osso Buco we have ever had. And my wife and I are foodies.“
“You order at the counter and the staff will bring your food to you. Fast service, along with delicious and savory flavors. The ahi tuna was well seasoned. There are plenty of hot sauces to pick from. It got pretty busy on a Friday night. Overall - with the fast service, well seasoned food, and variety of options for both seafood and hot sauces, I'd come back and recommend seasurf to others!“
“Such a fun atmosphere and excellent food! Our server Gabriel was friendly and helpful. He recommended the chile relleno and the Branzino and both were uniquely delicious. We also ordered the octopus ceviche for an appetizer and it was tender with incredible flavor. We also shared their homemade soft serve ice cream which was the best I’ve had. We shared this between 4 people and it was plenty of food. We are full, happy, and can’t wait to come back! Highly recommend if you want a great meal in a beautiful place!“
“Met a friend for happy hour at the bar. The female bartender was very friendly and acknowledged my presence immediately. Since the restaurant wasn't busy, my drink was made quickly. The happy hour menu has a nice selection of food choices to choose from and I ordered the cheese pizza which was excellent. Just the right amount of sauce and cheese on top of a delicious thin crust. As for the ambiance, it's a fairly typical bar with at least 8 seats at the bar and enough tables to seat multiple parties. If you're looking for good food, a cold drink and a local place to meet a friend, give Antonucci's a try.“
“WOW-WOW-WOW! I had a 4 week trip all over Brazil in 2009 and the highlight of was the food! This place is exactly what I experienced during my visit. It tastes like there's a mother or grandmother making the food for us ? highly recommend “
“I've visited Zip Korean bbq several times now, whether with my boyfriend or family, and each visit has been consistently great. Atmosphere is good and the service is excellent. The quality of the meats and food is always delicious. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a great ayce spot.“
“A rare, true beach bar in California. One of the best gems on the coast, everybody, there is so cheerful and very polite. Drinks and food are wonderful . Views are stunning -best service by far-Complete with surf music and right off the sand. Watch, surfers and dolphins and occasional whales while drinking your favorite cocktail, does it get any better?“
“Ambience was wonderful, our waiter suburb, my lamb rack , above and beyond. My husband ordered ravioli with lobster scallops, shrimp. Really. 5 star meal and service,feel fortunate that they are here in Mission Viejo!! Love this restaurant ❤️“
“Not sure if my review was posted but....Will come here again... Alonzo was an excellent waiter....very kind and patient..took the time to answer my questions and made sure I had a good dining experience... The loaded baked potato was delicious.. perfect place for a birthday dinner...“
“We dined on Jan 19 and it was a great dinner! The host was super polite and friendly and our server Brandon I hope I'm saying it correctly was super great and knowledgeable and kind! We had salmon tartar , calamari and the fish and chip was super delicious! Definitely recommend and will be coming back!“
“Amazing service, fabulous food!! Enjoy our meal! Love the asparagus fries...one of the best linguini and clam sauce I ever had!! Best tiramisu too! Only concern is that the bathroom needs to be checked in on more frequently...a bit dirty. The restaurant could use a little bit of an update...but will certainly return soon!!~“
“Probably one of the best seafood experiences I’ve ever had. Was surprisingly cheap for how much food we got. We got the calamari, street corn, clam chowder, and fish /shrimp tacos. All were 10/10. Also had to buy a couple bottles of their house hot sauce, which was crazy good.“
“You know that type of family that you dread coming to visit you but you have to be nice to them because they only visit once every few years? Yeah... I made the mistake of bringing a family member here yesterday. She was so rude to the waiter. The waiter was wonderful, answered all of our questions, helped with recommendations, and checked up on us often. And even when the family member in question was rude to the waiter and kept trying to show him pictures of a restaurant she visited overseas on her phone. The waiter very politely viewed her photos and described the dishes she had eaten. The waiter was very professional! The food was amazing and it was a good amount of food for the price. They have vegetarian options and meat options for us carnivores. The restaurant was empty since this restaurant is hidden from street view but it is worth the trip. I know I will be ordering from here more often and leaving that rude family member at home. Thank you to the cooks and the staff at this restaurant! You are all amazing! Great food, quiet environment, and professional staff. The dessert was also very tasty! Fresh mango and vanilla pudding. Delicious! They also have take-out and a huge menu to choose from. Don't skip out on this place! Leave the mean family members at home and eat here.“
“The food was very good and healthy. I had the two piece chicken (actually cooked on a flame grill) lunch with 4 tortillas, lettuce/salad, beans, and a smooth guac (which I really liked). Tomatillo salsa was very good. Nothing was loaded with salt which is a big deal to me. We’ll be coming back.“
“Our meal here was absolutely fantastic... We tried the hummus and liver pate appetizers to start, our companions had the salmon and we tried the lemon sole and lamb(the Volcano). Everything was so delicious and beautifully presented. Great service and yes one could carry on a conversation...“
“My family and I were looking for a Mexican restaurant to have dinner on the way to San Diego. I found this El Coyotito on Yelp and saw the had handmade tortillas. I was sold. Everything we had was delicious. My daughter is super picky and she loved her food. The staff was very kind and helpful. Everything was very clean as well. We'll definitely be back the next time we drive down.“
“This by far the best Poke bowl restaurant in SoCal! The food is always fresh and the staff is really polite and helpful if you want to try something new. It's always clean and has simple and mellow atmosphere. You won't find a better selection and service any where else!Parking: Underground parking is free when they stamp your ticket. Always space to park.“
“From the entrance, we can feel happy, since the Latin music surrounds you with joy. The service is 1A, (since I ordered a dish and it was not what I expected, they immediately changed it to the one I thought it was and it was not on the menu, it was a jelly made of only fish and really super delicious, I recommend this restaurant 100%, the price, the taste and the kindness of the girls and the man who serve you are 100% 1A excellent. Thank you very much ☺️ for everything. And congratulations for such excellent service. We loved the food and of course we will return .⭐️“
“Food, u can find better in grocery store cold section.Service, u may found one of two good waiter. But the rest, lol.But If ur correct skin color, i think you may get better service. I was there for one hour waiting for my food and check. Waiters treat different people very differently.View, my hotel room has a better view.“
“This restaurant is set inside Mess Hall. A communal modern food court. The ribeye tacos were excellent but a little rich for my taste (ribeye is my fav cut of meat). I loved their taquitos and salad ? as well. Great options. We will def go “
“Excellent service and dinners on a busy Friday night. They were able to seat a party of 8 with no reservations and a wheel chair within 20 minutes at about 7:30 pm. Thank you for providing a wonderful experience for a family and friends long over due get together after 2 years. The miso chillian seabsss was excellent!“
“We needed to find a place last minute to host a small baptism dinner in Dana point and we are from SanDiego area, I was looking online and found this Gem!!! Not only were they accommodating and very patient the whole staff there were great!! They were all happy and polite. The food came out at perfect timing. All the guests were happy and kept saying how they enjoyed themselves. The food was Delicious (prosciutto flatbread) was my favoritethe desserts were good too! The prices were very reasonable The atmosphere was perfect for the occasion. We will definitely be back the next time we are in town can't wait to try their breakfast menu and one of those cupcakes!“
“This restaurant specializes is poki bowls (rice base with sushi). It’s kinda a build your own, with choices for rice, the sushi, and the toppings.The food is extraordinary, fresh, and very tasty. The rice is a bit underwhelming, but still very good.The location is a bit of a hole in the wall, with minimal parking, a liquor store next door (in case you really need that drink!), and a sign for “tattoos”. I’m not really sure if they do Tattoos here, but maybe? Or maybe it’s just an inside joke?This is the place you come to and order to go. While they do have tables in the parking lot, I’m not sure I want to eat next to running cars in a filthy parking lot…“
“I was looking forward to dining and having drinks on the Deck here for a couple months now, it's my 62nd birthday (Golden Birthday) so I wanted something close so we could walk back to the Pacific Edge Hotel.We were not disappointed. I had the Muscle and Clam soup, ( Laguna Cioppino) and as I was digging my way through the pile of meat and shells, I rediscovered my love for shellfish. The broth itself was absolutely delicious. Had to tip the entire large bowl with both hands to drink the delicious liquid. The Clams and Muscles were numerous, Also found several very large shrimp in the bowl, it was like a hunt for treasure right in my bowl. Excellent meal. Couldn't finish all the shellfish.Also tried several drinks, actually, many drinks, I think,? one of which was the Liquid Vacation, I posted a couple pictures of our meal and this particular drink because it was so good ?. We will be back over the next few days. Came back next day, today we tried the Tower of Seafood, it was great except for a couple things, the half lobster should be a whole tail, whoever heard of serving half a tail? This dish is for couples to share, needs more of everything for 109$ a serving. ?“
“We are visiting from out of town and wanted steak, so we were giving this a try. Dinner consisted of my husband and I. And my daughter who doesn't eat meals yet. We ordered the Spinach artichoke dip, I thought it was good, but my husband found it to Garlicy. We ordered a ceasar salad split, I found each of our Salads to be smaller than a typical side salad and not worth $14 Lettuce, a smidge of parmasean, the ceasar vinegarrett. My husband had the ribeye, and I the prime rib, and we ordered garlic truffle mashed potatoes that we did not care for. Both our steaks were delicious, my husband loved the ribeye. Creamed corn was good. We ordered cheese cake for dessert, it was good, but I feel like they were aiming for fancy with chocolate drizzle, but it judt tasted like Hershey syrup. Service was great, all the staff was super friendly, multiple checking, gsl in front was dancing, entertaining my daughter. Cute holiday decor was a cute little suprise. We will be back, and we know what we can skip next time.“
“Love this family-owned business. Favorite place to stop at on the way home after a day with the family. The service is great, and the food is even better. Craving it now. The ambiance is giving small town in Mexico with seating both indoors and outdoors, making it pet-friendly on the patio.“
“This place is 3 minutes from my office. Friendly staff, quick service, and great quality poke bowl! I come here to treat myself now and again. 10/10 recommend. Dining inside is a bit of a tight squeeze, so I highly suggest you come before the lunch time rush or just take out. :)“
“Top notch Sushi! I've been coming here since they opened and I'm in love with this place. First, Chef Masa is the nicest most friendly Chef there is, and all his staff are friendly and spot on with water refills and quick service. The fish he gets is some of the freshest and best quality out there. For cooked food Try the salmon collar. It's the melt in your mouth part of the salmons neck and cheek, and prepared expertly! Everything I've had, from the fresh oysters, the halibut carpaccio, the Takowasa, and Takoyaki, they spicy yellow tail lover roll and al the sashimi- has been perfect. Can't recommend enough !“
