18 Best Steakhouses near Costa Mesa

“Went for lunch with reservation. Server was attentive, knowledgeable on menu and friendly. Everything came out timely from appetizers, to main course, but desert seemed to take a little longer. Shared PESTO CHICKEN AND FRESH MOZZARELLA FLATBREAD, PHILLY CHEESESTEAK FLATBREAD & CHARCUTERIE BOARD. I didn't try charcuterie which looked good, flat read was good but not to die for. Main course had the BRICK-OVEN ROASTED CHILEAN SEA BASS which was also very good, cooked excellent and left me satisfied but not full. Moved on to desert and couldn't decide on KEY LIME PIE (1 MINI) & BLUEBERRY AND LEMON (1 MINI) so got both - have to say I was surprised the key lime pie was not tart enough for liking and the pie crust crumbles fell as I scooped out of the dish with my spoon, the blueberry and lemon was excellent and highly recommended! I would return to this location for lunch or dinner, would love to have had a drink during happy hour to complement the meal.“

“i've been a big fan of yardhouse happy hour since i started going to it back in 2021 in Long beach. now that i dont frequent the one in LB, this costa mesa location is the closest. the happy hour here is probably my #1, great selection choices, and overall, great beer selection too. highly recommend the chicken tenders, pizzas, and poke nachos!“

“We always eat here before the theatre. Food is great, service is great, and very convenient. I like dining and then walking over to the theatre.“

“Whatta wonderful treat to be at this fabulous place! Such great classic dishes that you don’t see anymore on menus like King crab legs & all the different types of steaks. The lights are low & the service is impeccable. A gem in the coastal cities of the OC.❤️“

“Food was absolutely incredible. All the staff and waiters are extremely polite and friendly. Great experience for my birthday!“

“Incredible flavors that are well balanced. Nothing was too sweet or salty. I'm amazed that I enjoyed every dish, and it surpassed my expectations despite reading mixed reviews. It's been a while since I had dishes at this caliber and quality. It's better than a good amount of restaurants in LA.

Everyone was extremely friendly and polite. Due to the holiday weekend and it being a Friday in a business area, it was fairly quiet. We decided to celebrate my birthday because the menu intrigued me. I liked the idea of modern cuisine influenced by SE Asian flavor and was curious to see how everything would be. We shared the scallop crudo, salmon crudo, sausage croquettes, Spanish octopus, wagyu hanger steak, broccoli & greens, and mixed mushrooms. Portion sizes are more generous than I thought too so we ended up taking ~1/3 of it home.

We shared the warm chocolate cake dessert which was rich with chocolate flavor, and they gave a pound cake berry & whipped cream dessert on the house for my birthday which was very kind. Seriously, kudos to Chef Jay Lacuesta and the team! I haven't found a nicer restaurant in OC that I want to go back to, and I've now found it! I'm so glad that I chose to celebrate my birthday there. Thank you!!

PS: park at the Centerpoint parking garage and get your ticket validated. They also have valet if you prefer, just pull right up to front of the restaurant.“

“Service was not up to par for what I'd expect at this place. Waitress missed one of our sides and never came back to see how our food was.

8/30/26 - update. Went back today and Jared was our waiter who was excellent. We had a great ribeye and Sea Bass. Had stuffed mushrooms as an appetizer.“

“On recommendation of locals, we came here for steaks. Service was outstanding and the view of the ocean was awesome. The Ribeyes were cooked as ordered and had great flavor. The Clam Chowder was also delicious. They served warm sourdough rolls with whipped butter. Yes, it's a bit on the pricier side but the experience was great.“

“Great food and service. Thanks for hosting my 23rd!“

“Food was fantastic! Had the Miso Glazed Chilean Sea Bass and it was amazing. The lobster bisque was very good too!! Service was also great.“

“Great place. Excellent service and food was great!“

“We have dined at The Bungalow about 7 times. Food and service are always superb. We were always seated upstairs by the lively bar, a room with a wonderful ambience. This time we were seated in one of the two downstairs rooms, which still have great food and service, but zero ambience. For future dinners, I will try to return to the upstairs. Perhaps the restaurant can decorate the other rooms and even set up a second bar!“

“On the expensive side, but everything was delicious!“

“Such a great dinner celebrating my dad’s 92nd birthday. Amazing food and wine. Our server Georgina was absolutely amazing! Thank you for taking such good care of us!“

“Due to a change in distributers, the food choices were very limited. That had never happened before. The only meat choices were sirloin steak and salmon. Hope they get that all straightened out because Black Angus is a place we like to frequent.“

“Our favorite steak house, we come here at least twice a month. Great food, friendly service, and hard to find value. Don't forget to sign up for their rewards program, you get points every time you dine, and I personally get free meal every 3~4 visits. Customers for life!“

“Excellent If only once in your life’s journey, place this on your list ❤️‍🔥💕💗‼️“
