“Awesome little local beer bar. Modest, but great selection of beer. I always felt a friendly welcome every time I go in. Christian, who owns the place is great, and always recommends good choices for whatever your palate is feeling. My favorite place for beer in town!“

“Been wanting to stop in for years. Was in the shopping plaza next door and had some time so I took the opportunity. Being early Sat afternoon, there were only a dozen or so customers. The place isn't huge but if you don't mind standing there's enough space between tables. Some food is available (I didn't order any) and they have food trucks some nights as well as entertainment. True to their website claim, there were indeed 30 taps with 30 beers to choose from, some local/regional and others from afar. I decided to sample and got three 5-oz glasses after talking with Dawn, the bar tender, who recommended a couple based on my preferences. I think my favorite was the dark, coffee flavored beer on nitro. There's something for everyone and I'll definitely return, esp with family and friends seeking good brew. I highly recommend the Brewhouse, you won't be disappointed.“

“Stopped here before my gfs departing flight and it was an amazing experience. The atmosphere was wonderful, the drinks were stiff and reasonably priced, and our bartender (Tucker) was the kindest and most efficient bartender I’ve ever had in my life. From now on, this place will be a mandatory go-to before flying out of SNA.“

“Board and Brew in Dana Point provided amazing food and customer service that is above and beyond for my brother’s memorial service on 11/2. They confirmed my order a few days before the memorial
And the day of. Delivery was fantastic and they truly put their heart into this special day for us. Thank you everyone you are all the best“

Kid-friendliness: Family atmosphere ♥️“

“Came here with a group of four, one of whom being from Japan. We were all amazed by the variety and quality of food. It is presented as sharing plates and is much more than sushi. Daily specials were presented on a chalk board, but they had a set menu as well. The miso cheese was *chef kiss*. The service was excellent and friendly and we really enjoyed the atmosphere. Will be going back soon!!“

“Hit the mark, prices ok, 24/7 Willy Wonka on TV👍“

“I absolutely love this restaurant. The customer service is above and behind. The street tacos are my favorite. It melts in your mouth so good. We have had many things off their menu. Nothing disappoints. The selection is huge and everything you could order will be the best. Enjoy you will certainly be back.“

“INCREDIBLE is an understatement! From the ambiance, to the service, to the impeccably currated menu. Just WOW. The attention to detail on every aspect at Casa De Onda was perfection. The tropical margarita was a show stopper, fresh lime and coconut is a combo I didn’t know I needed. The steak frites melted in you mouth & was topped with a homemade Chimichurri that was a burst of fresh flavor. The vibes from start to finish we insane! 1000/10.“

“Spicy chicken feet is at the right level of spiciness. They don’t have boneless option, so you have to do your work. And if you decided to order spicy chicken feet, order with diy rice ball. Not because it’s fiery hot, but the portion of one order is def not enough for two people. So if you are hungry, combo menu will be the best. Me and my friend got combo A, and we got enough of various dishes ( chicken feet+diy rice ball+steamed egg+fried chicken). Also this place didn’t seemed to be overly busy even in the Friday night. No need for reservation.“

“Me and my hubby been docking boats or ferry-hopping our bikes to Balboa saloon since the seventies. Half the year we live in Newport, half Montana-where whiskey still hollers your name out there. This here's our bar, our heartbeat. Fourth we light it up, holidays on lock, pool tables bruised from our elbows, salt and lager thick as perfume. Ensenada-Newport race? Honey, we command this place like pirates. The Owner finally did somethin' right-floor don't grab my flip-flops, somebody's moppin'! Jeff's still king behind the bar, new gals laugh real, pour cold, TVs sharp as knives. Only hitch-get Cruisers to wing it over so we quit dodgin' Death Trap Balboa Boulevard. Five stars, fat tip, and girl-we're bringin' every neighbor, every sunburned neighbor's dog, every salty soul we love down here to share the buzz we just crashed into.“

“Service is outstanding! The place is clean including the bathroom. Food is awesome🥰“

“I go to this bar more than I like to admit and I’ve found that it’s not just because the drinks are cheap, the people are weird, or that’s it’s always a fun night. I find myself going back because the service is top notch. Kari is always on top of it and Rory is always holding down the fort. Hats off to you both and I’ll see you next weekend“

“I ate here a few days ago with my family and enjoyed the experience. I ordered the Crunch Shrimp Roll and Chicken Gyozas and found them both delicious. We also split a big bowl of Shrimp Fried Rice, and had Green Tea ice cream for dessert.
The atmosphere is very intimate and cozy and the food was brought out in quick fashion.“
