Kaycee is amazing! So friendly and happy to serve her customers. She literally listens (I'm high maintenance) and delivers what you ask for with a smile on her face. Patio is great in warm weather and dog friendly! I highly recommend, but be sure to ask for Kaycee to take care of you. Happy hour has great deals.

Located directly on PCH- it is loud, the server forgot our drink order but was otherwise attentive. The food lacked flavor, but was delivered warm. New to Dana Point. Will not come back. ?

Awesome Mexican/California style food and great cocktails. Love the chips and guacamole and margaritas. Friendly and attentive service, tasty Baja tacos all served at the original location/building of Hobie Surfboards.

The Erica Experience

We were in area running an errand and hubby decided to stop here for lunch on a Saturday. I had the enchilada plate, it came with the right cheese on beans, queso fresco. My whole plate was delicious! Kai was very attentive, friendly and professional. Lots of TVs through out restaurant. Lots of different drinks to choose from and food was great!

I've driven by Cali Costa a few times and always wanted to try. The place looks cozy and cute from the outside, but looks can be deceiving. Inside of Cali Costa looks like a dive bar. It's kind dark and dinky. I ordered a short rib breakfast burrito, and the total was $19+. The burrito itself was unimpressive. I'm not sure about returning.

COLBY was amazing! Great customer service and great place to watch football. Salsa was good. The breakfast carnita tacos were delicious.Had to write a review just because of Colby. He was so nice and so cool and great at his job!

Wanting dinner & a place to watch the 49er's game, we showed up at Cali Costa. We are locals and we both saw a recent post by someone who was disgruntled at the service. Call it a blessing in disguise because we decided to check it out ourselves. We were pleasantly surprised! The meal was delicious, the service was great, and the ambiance was exceptional! There are TV's EVERYWHERE!!! We chose the patio area with a fire pit on the table. We had a fantastic evening and will be back.

Well we booked in advance for a party of 12. The service was horrible. It was forever to get drinks, water or alcohol. When I looked in the kitchen it looked like only 1 cook was there on a Friday night. The other cook must have been outta sight, but if not that explains why it took so long to get our orders, poor guy. Food was OK. I do understand the work force is scarce so that could be part of the problem. Hopefully things will get better.
