12 Best Bistros near Costa Mesa

“Enjoyed a side of breakfast sausages and bacon. Sausages were a good size and had a little spice/pepper... Just the right amount. Bacon was crispy & nice and salty.Ordered both at the aMuse restaurant inside the Marriott, but cost wise it's better to pay for the buffet (which is in a separate room). The only downside for the buffet is the sausage/bacon/ham rotates each day.Nice service, clean and bright space.“

“Zov’s is a very nice place, with a friendly atmosphere and staff, and great food!!“

“The most amazing Italian restaurant ever!“

“I went to Europe for two weeks and my entire time there I ate at a lot of tapas places. The only way to describe those places is that they felt like home, they felt warm and places that after a busy and stressful day of work you just want to sit there, rest, replenish and build back the courage to get back to business. Element felt just like that. In the heart of Santa Ana, the heart of Orange County, this place allows you to slow down through the business of life and recharge, laugh, connect with the local community and get right back to it. You can enjoy some incredible food that is cooked with precision and by a chief that enjoys his craft, you can drink some cocktails that have been carefully crafted to suit your needs and you can enjoy a community that cares about you and is proud of their upbringing. If you want to feel at home, if you want to feel refreshed and want to get a taste of the European fun while being close to home, Element is the place to be.“

“Mimi’s Café is the perfect mix of cozy and classy. The menu has a little something for everyone—from hearty breakfasts to fresh salads and comforting entrees. The food is always flavorful and served in generous portions, and their baked goods are a must-try (don’t sleep on the muffins!). The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it great for family meals, brunch with friends, or even a casual date. The staff is friendly and attentive, which makes every visit feel special. Definitely a go-to spot when you want good food in a relaxed setting!“

“Love this place for breakfast very tasty menu❤️“

“I ordered the Moulin Salad - chicken and pesto- excellent!“

“I went in here last summer to get a breakfast or a drink when I was a volunteer at the annual Strawberry festival. I walked in here and was taken aback by how lovely the interior decorations and designs were. It reminded me of a certain time on my past. Don't know which one, but it was a positive one.

I got a pandan latte, and this was the first time, I had a latte that tasted genuinely good. It was affordable and really good.“

“Great ambiance! Very friendly staff that was very accommodating to my kids. Best part was the delicious food! We will definitely be back. 😊“

“We stayed here for two nights and the hotel exceeded my expectations. We have stayed in lots of hotels across America and have learned never to trust the photos so we are always nervous about what we might find once we check in. We booked a king room and the room was very large with a comfy couch and tv. The room was really clean and had everything we needed, mini fridge, lots of power points and hot showers. The area seemed very safe and there is plenty of car parking. The hotel is only 15mins from the beach.“

“OMG, Best service ever!!!! The food was amazing!!!! Thank you so much Joslyn for making my night very special. Me and my family will be back.“

“Great place to dive n drink“
