Excellent spot. Great food, great wine and great service.

Birthday celebration! What a great place for that to happen - Carpaccio was delicious, Butcher House fries (so yummy!) and perfectly cooked steak. Topped off with a most scrumptious apple tart. Will return soon!

I had dinner here for the first time and I was not disappointed. The atmosphere was great, food was amazing but the service was top notch. I really do enjoy when the feel of a restaurant makes you feel like you're in a different place. Can't wait for my next visit!

The place itself is clean , in a good safe upper end plaza . The aged meat was out of this world. Their beers taste crisp clean and amazing.the creme brulee was caramelized to perfection though i would add a tad more vanilla beans for flavor. Sadly they removed the ratatouille for some galic roasted potato and very very plain and blend roasted vegetables . The new sides didnt taste french at all more like american fusion or wanna be i was let down. French cuisine has a lot of interesting flavors and sides to choose from this isnt it. Chef or owner need to revise their menu again bring back real french cuisine and mediteranean flavors . I was very underwarm and disappointed by the sides . The goat cheese could use some nutty favor to balance out the honey. The server was a bit akward and dodgy . Nice french bistro. Outdoor eating area they have heaters and covers which helped a lot

The 30-day aged steak was magnificent. I ordered it medium rare, and it melted in my mouth. It had an exquisite taste. Overall, excellent food and drinks. They have a fabulous expresso martini as well. The restaurant carries a beautiful ambiance all around. Great place for an intimate date with friends or a loved one.
Had dinner for the first time last night and everything was executed very well. Not overly complicated, complementary wine selection and great

Came here for brunch. Nice restaurant- casual yet refined. Both the meat dishes and traditional brunch food ( French toast) were well prepared and very tasty. Friendly and prompt service. Located in OC Mix which is one of our go to places for a relaxing afternoon- we were glad to find its equally as relaxing earlier in the day.

Atmosphere was nice and quiet. Small intimate atmosphere with small patio to dine outside. Only serves wine and beer. Very expensive and we personally didn't feel the food matched the high price tag.
Amazingly great food! The lamb, flank steak and New York strip were cooked to perfection! Authentic French dishes with the ambience of Paris! It's our go to place for French cuisine!!

We have been here three times and the food is always incredible. We have tried the pork chops, half chicken, duck, salad with prosciutto and farmer's cheese (my favorite), French onion soup, all the desserts, and our all-time favorite, the wood fired Camembert cheese with fresh bread. We LOVE everything about this place! Can't wait to go back!
This place was incredible. Our server was so kind and attentive and overall an amazing server. Our food was DELICIOUS. One of the best restaurants in Costa Mesa. I was pleasantly surprised and cannot wait to return. 5 stars in every way.

We all enjoyed our brunch at Butchery House Brasserie. We had Steak Frites and Steak and Eggs. the meat on both was perfectly cooked, the presentation artful and the potatoes decadent. The light and lemony butter leaf salad was a refreshing side with the Steak Frites. We were there on Sunday at noon. Surprised at how quiet it was.

The ambiance at Butcher's House Brasserie was equally remarkable, creating a cozy and sophisticated atmosphere that enhanced the overall dining experience. The warm lighting and tasteful decor set the perfect tone for a delightful evening. The attention to detail by the staff was evident throughout the meal. Our waiter was not only attentive but also knowledgeable about the menu, providing helpful recommendations that complemented our tastes perfectly. The pacing of the courses was well-coordinated, allowing us to savor each dish without feeling rushed. The prosciutto board was a delightful prelude to the main courses, showcasing a thoughtful selection of cured meats and accompanying flavors. The filet mignon was a true highlight, cooked to a perfect medium-rare, tender, and bursting with flavor. The hanger steak, paired with raclette potatoes, was equally impressive, showcasing the chef's skill in crafting diverse and delectable dishes. Dessert was a sweet symphony of flavors. The apple tart had a buttery, flaky crust that complemented the tender apple slices, while the crème brûlée boasted a perfectly caramelized top with a rich and creamy interior. The cappuccino was a delightful conclusion, providing a satisfying balance of robust coffee flavor and velvety foam. In summary, Butcher's House Brasserie delivered an exceptional dining experience from start to finish. The combination of impeccable service, delectable cuisine, and inviting ambiance makes it a standout choice for anyone seeking a memorable culinary adventure. Five stars without a doubt!
Upon walking up, we were greeted by the host and immediately taken to our table. The quaint restaurant has a Paris cafe vibe - from the green leather booths, the marble table with gold accents and the bar with bottle after bottle of French wine. You can see the fridge for their dry age meats from the table- love that they display them and are proud of the Butcher aspect of the restaurant! I ordered an aperitif - the Kir Royale - the black currant wasn't overly sweet and a nice start to the night. We ordered the Butcher's House Pâté to share, Ryan ordered the Filet Mignon with Béarnaise sauce and Raclette Potatoes and I had the Butcher's Burger with Butcher's Fries. The pâté was good- definitely different than ones we've had at other restaurants - it didn't spread on the bread all that well, but the flavor was fantastic and the fatty pork was very rich; a nice balance with the mustards. Ryan's steak was delicious - perfect medium rare and well seasoned - however the béarnaise sauce was a little thick and oddly sweet. The Raclette potatoes were a bit of a miss- not a whole lot of seasoning so they were a little bland. My burger was very good. The house sauce and onion confit were a nice enhancement to the dry- aged beef. My only complaint would be the amount of grease- the bottom bun was a bit soggy and the grease was puddled on the plate. I had a glass of of a delicious red wine -a Châteauneuf-du-Pape that paired well with the burger. The Butcher's Fries with Nueske's Bacon was probably my favorite. The melted Raclette cheese and the salty bacon were so good. Next time, I'll ask for crispier fries! Throughout dinner, our waiter was super attentive - checked on us after bringing each course and was quick to bring all of our food and drinks. We were super bummed when we realized we forgot our leftover fries and potatoes that would have gone so incredibly well with Ryan's eggs this morning! I definitely would return and really want to check out their brunch

Exceptional food! New menu item - Beef Cheek - exceeded my husband's expectations. Branzino was delish as always. We also tasted Buche de Chèvre as appetiser: stunning with honey drizzle on it.
