New American Restaurants near Corona Del Mar, CA

“My Filet was tought as leather I could hardly cut it and had a hard time chewing it. I have never experienced this with a filet at any restaurant. Tuna appetizer was out of this world delicious drinks are very good as well the service was outstanding. I will go there again but will pass on the filet.“

“Great place was looking for @Shannonbeador but no luck! Highly recommended anyway!“

“Went to Bandera on my birthday which was March 15 ,2024 and I had the Filet Minion with broccoli and mash potatoes, Also a glass of refreshing white champagne. Then for dessert I had a delicious chocolate dessert, with whip cream and a leaf mint on it . Tasted like it had a little alcohol in it . Our waiter was very nice , sweet , always asking if our meal was good and how everything is going. I forgot the waiters name but he’s very tall , about 6’6 .“

“The summer house is a general go to for American food. The prices are on the high side for the food you get. We generally go here for a quick meal. The server we got tonight is little hard on hospitality and same experience we had before from him. I think he has been there a while and regulars get better service and not so short with service at there tables from.what we noticed.“

“This was our 1st time visiting this location... it was awesome!!! Same great food, great vibe (lots of pretty people at the bar) and service was awesome!!! The manager came up to us letting us know our food would be delayed for a bit... but we didn't even notice the delay... the service is outstanding. I love the Macho salad... it is so d'lish. Great menu, distinguished wine list and a super hot place for a meal. We will go back for sure!!!“

“We came here twice in one week...once for lunch and once for breakfast, and we were thrilled with our food, service, and price.The first day we had the Jetty Burger and the Tuna Melt. One of us had the homemade chips as a side, and the other the potato salad...YUMMY! This morning we had the breakfast burrito with bacon, and the Breakfast Burger with bacon. Both were the bomb!“

“Ate at the Jamboree location in Tustin and cashier Ali was courteous, kind, knowledgeable and very helpful in helping us understand the menu options. Even offered a couple samples to make sure we ordered something we’d enjoy. Great customer service!“

“had the ahi tuna salad. it was awesome.“

“Pre dinner drinks at the bar were excellent. My wife enjoyed the warm up drinks. Front hosts were very friendly and ensured that our table was ready. Dinner was very good. My wife ordered the pork plate and i ordered the crunchy tuna salad. Our waitress was also attentive.“

“Melt always gives good service, and even better food, me and my fiancé love to come here after doing some shopping for a great dinner. Food always comes out fresh and quick, gotta try the patty melt and cannot forget the garlic fries!!! 11/10 all around!!“

“We had a great dining experience at Urban Plates in Long Beach. Mariana explained the menu choices in a very unrushed manner, and we decided on the steak. I ordered the Chimichurri grass-fed steak with balsamic brussel sprouts and herb-roasted potatoes. All of it was delicious ( and healthy too!). The deserts were absolutely killer too. We will definitely eat here again next time we're in Long Beach.“

“Another fabulous evening. We went early on New Years Eve. They had just changed the menu for the new year, so we ended up with a bottle of champagne- Pierre Jouet blanc de blanc - - first time for that one and it was great. Their wedge salad is yummy and big enough for 2 to share, with an interesting presentation . Order it and find out for yourself. Husband had the whole branzino, grilled, with beluga lentils and grilled vegetables -another lovely presentation. I had the grilled octopus, served as a warm salad, with a melange of vegetables.: every bite was a bit different. They cut the octopus in bite sized pieces, so no wrestling with it to cut it up. Flavors were interesting - each bite a different combo of ingredients. Dessert was their interesting baklava cheesecake and a combo of ice creams : mexican and one with cardomon flavor - both were worth the calories! Service by Gabriel was top notch and fun. We'll be back .“

“Peter is amazing! He is such an attentive waiter and made sure we had an excellent dinner. Highlight of our trip! ☀️“

“Have been a very satisfied regular @EatChow CM for several years. The menu varies seasonally, selections are plated attractively & are always delicious; love the fried green tomatoes😋. Eric & his crew are cordial with the right balance of attentiveness. Undoubtedly authentic, consistently never fails to please & a local, late night favorite🧘🏻‍♀️“

“Best comfort food ever! The thing I miss about living in California the most is the spaghetti grilled cheese at Burnt Crumbs. It will change your life. I would order three at a time and eat half a sandwich each day for lunch. If you guys wanna franchise in Detroit let me know lol 💯 💯 🔥 🔥“

“Súper recomendado muy sabroso 😋 y muy amables todos 💕🙏“

“Great atmosphere and great service and good value.“

“Wow. Had some truly special food here. The Koobideh was juicy, and almost perfect. It was served with a little spicy aioli that brought the whole dish to another level. The babaghanoush had some lovely balsamic that elevated it elegantly and the Tzatziki had pickles instead of cucumbers and it was the best I’ve tasted. My wife had pita fries and they were genius and delicious. Do not leave without trying the saffron pistachio and/or pomegranate/chocolate ice cream. Service and ambiance were matched to the food, just right.“

“What a wonderful little place! There are plenty of items on the menu to choose from, as well as gluten-free alternatives. We had shrimp and mashed potatoes; both were excellent! Service was very good while dining al fresco.“

“We had a late dinner at the Yard House after a Christmas lights cruise in the bay on a Monday in December. The Yard House serves dinner later. We had a an appetizer of queso with meat. It was outstanding. I had Maui Chicken and my wife had a Chicken dish ,also. Both were large portions and fantastic. When we are in the area we will definitely go back!“

“Great food and easy going vibe“

“Excellent restaurant the wine was amazing in the ceviche so delish thank you we will be back“

“Amazing food and atmosphere. We sat at the bar and have to give our bartender/waiter Jake a huge shout out. He was the best! Definitely going back again.“

“Great spot to eat. Hidden gem.“

“Celebrated my 19th birthday here with my cousins! It's our first time and we really enjoyed the atmosphere, the service and the delicious food! Service was a bit slow at the beginning but when we finally got our appetizers followed by our main courses, it was really good! We had a great time overall.“

“Swordfish is amazing, highly recommend“

“My friends and I had such a fabulous time at Jolies. From the moment we arrived, we were seated promptly and warmly greeted by the host. We asked to switch our reservation to the patio, and the team was incredibly accommodating, they even turned on the heaters for us, which made the experience extra cozy and thoughtful. We started with a few cocktails, and the Passion Spritz was hands-down our favorite, refreshing and perfectly balanced. For dinner, we ordered the picanha, halibut, Caesar salad, and I went with the pho burger, which was truly the standout. So unique, packed with flavor, and absolutely delicious. The patio itself is beautiful with a lovely view, making it such a great spot to relax and enjoy a meal. We're already looking forward to coming back, especially to check out the new rooftop. Highly recommend for a fun night out with friends!“

“We went to the Yard House at Irvine Spectrum on Thanksgiving, and it was wonderful. We had the Turkey Dinner, which included mashed potatoes & gravy, macaroni & cheese, stuffing, Brussels sprouts, and Pumpkin cheesecake, all of which was delicious, and only $29.99 per person. The service was great. The staff was friendly, attentive, and efficient. Management even came by to check on our table. We will definitely be back!“

“Stopped in at Social in Costa Mesa while spending a weekend down in Orange County, and I’m so glad we did. I’d heard great things from friends, and this place definitely didn’t disappoint. The food was absolutely amazing, the atmosphere was spot-on, and the service was just as good.

It wasn’t too busy when we arrived—probably because it’s Christmas season and everyone’s out shopping—so we got in right before the lunch crowd. I heard it was packed the night before, and I can see why. Everything we tried was top-notch.“

“exceptional service and employees“

“Fine dining, excellent service, amazing food“

“our special place to celebrate excellent service Delicious“

“Great service, amazing atmosphere and delicious food.“

“Late lunch and happy hour prices. Win! Food was delicious, Courtney our waitress was amazing. One thing I wish I would have known is how outstanding their homemade pistachio ice cream was before we ate. If I knew I would have skipped the food and ordered a half gallon of ice-cream.“

“I love going to BJ’s, it’s my favorite place to enjoy a good meal. Service was excellent. Food was outstanding and I love the atmosphere here. Everyone is always so engaging and nice.“

“Each dish is spectacular. Love the calamari ….can be an appetizer to share or eat on your own with a salad. 230:Forest Avenue never disappoints!!!“

“Whenever I'm in town, I always make it a point to stop by Stacked. Their build-your-own mac is so good—creamy, flavorful, and customizable just the way I like it. The food is consistently delicious and it's become one of my go-to spots. Highly recommend!“

“We had high hopes coming to Olea, but alas we were disappointed. Location/Ambiance: Westcliff Plaza and small with a large bar at the front, the layout leaves little space for tables. We sat in a snug booth alongside the windows with a view of Susie Cakes next door. The decor is warm and modern. Food: Subpar! Burnt bread but delicious whipped butter. Butter lettuce and Goat cheese salad was bland with a basic dressing. Mac and cheese skillet was good but nothing amazing. Filet was dry with overdone gluey mashed potatoes, and underdone broccolini. Halibut was pan seared to a dry mess with an inedible coating, bland steamed seasonal vegetables of cauliflower, carrots, and broccoli as a side. Service: Friendly and Fake, if you enjoy watching servers walk away from your table talking about how "picky and difficult you are" this is a perfect spot. My Mother has dietary restrictions and we are specific to ensure a safe dining experience, it's sad when that's met with disdain. Overall: We won't be back!“

“Fabulous first time won’t be the last!“

“Good foo, nice people and the food was made quickly even though they were busy AF.“

“Great restaurant, A1 service, friendly staff, great ambiance, food and drinks“

“The Duck Confit Spliff is a great representation of the Vietnamese & French cultures “wrapped” up all in one dish. And for a more traditional & fun way to eat it, you definitely have to use your hands. My only wish was for a little more duck in the spliff.

With the Ebelskivers, the concept was again brilliant. The garlic emulsion creates an intense garlic flavor but in a light and airy way. But like takoyaki, I wish there was more escargot in the batter to remind me more of that chewy feel from the traditional dish.

The surprise star of our meal was the Royale with Cheese. The wagyu had great flavor and char. And the sesame seed bun held up well for this napkin-required burger. But those pickles were amazing nuggets of necessity to add balancing acidity to the richness of the dish.

We definitely want to try the Duck Breast, the Spanish Octopus, and the Prix Fixe Meal on future visits. A final thanks to Chef & Curtis for the friendly service and explanation of the menu.“

“It's worth your while to come and experience it.“

“If you want a unique dining experience this is the place to go. The wait staff and servers they were all on point very attentive I never had to look around to look for anyone if I raised my head somebody was right at my table to find out what I needed or how they could serve me. Awesome awesome experience wonderful food. I will be back!“

“The food is amazing here. Always excellent. Always made the same consistent way each time we have been here. The staff is SUPER friendly and they have a beautiful dog-friendly patio. It does get really busy at lunch on Saturdays so be prepared if you come that day. Weekdays tend to be a lot slower. It quickly has become my favorite place to eat and is my go-to place now. The food is just as good delivered as well. Cannot go wrong here. Especially with the Chicken Club. Delicious. Fries are really good too.“

“Went with my parents for an early Christmas dinner and service was great… food was delicious… and atmosphere was on point!“

“This has become my favorite food!
Very healthy and wholesome.
Service is exceptional and owner very kind. I got a complementary baklava piece because I kept eyeing it and kind owner noticed. Thank you Pom & Olive for your kind gesture. May God bless you with many more years of great food and service. Amen.“

“Delicious healthy food. I highly recommend this restaurant“

“First time here, great service and yummy food. The entire staff was very friendly and helpful. Everyone had a warm smile to welcome us in. We will definitely be back“

“Omg the food. 1st time in and I’ll definitely be back. Loved the outdoor seating option.“
