Lobby Lounge Bar • $$$
30801 Coast Hwy, Laguna Beach

“My friends and I are staying here, and this evening we stepped out for a stroll by the ocean. We were feeling a bit peckish and wanted to make sure we had an interesting evening. We popped into our hotel lobby—and, as it turns out, there was live music playing! That’s right, folks: apparently, they have music here every single day. The atmosphere is actually very pleasant, and the music itself is excellent. We had a truly wonderful time. We weren't hungry, so we didn't order any food; they simply brought us some water while we sat back and enjoyed the music, along with the magnificent view of the ocean from the hotel balcony. I took a video and attached a photo so you could take a look.“

“The food was amazing! My boyfriend ordered eggs, and the waiter actually made a second batch just to make sure everything was perfect, without us even asking. That level of care really stood out.

The food was delicious, and the customer service was outstanding. Our waiter was friendly, attentive, and genuinely seemed passionate about his job.

I’m a tourist who decided to try this place, and I’m so glad I did. If I lived here, I would definitely be a regular and come back again and again. Highly recommend!“

“I'm giving it a 5 for the staff. I briefly looked at it, thinking it was an independent rooftop bar, not realizing it was connected to the hotel.Our drinks were ok, prices were average. If you were staying at the hotel, this would be a great experience. If you were bar hoping or anything of that nature, I would go here if everything else was packed.Again, staff was incredibly nice and we stayed for them ?“

Kitsch Bar Bar • $$
891 Baker St, Costa Mesa - 11.33 miles

“Okay, OC, buckle up — if bars could slide into your DMs, blow you a kiss, and then mix you a drink that makes your knees weak, Kitsch Bar in Costa Mesa would be the smooth operator doing exactly that.
I sashayed in thinking “just one drink” and left feeling like the entire lounge had been personally trying to court me all night. That brand-new walk-around bar? It’s straight-up seductive architecture — you literally circle the flirtation while the low red lights kiss everything in sight, the plush booths give you a warm hug, and the disco ball throws sparkly little winks like it’s in on the game. TVs for the sports, weekend entertainment that keeps the vibe bouncing (karaoke nights, house beats, throwback hip-hop), and a whole atmosphere that screams “stay a while… or forever, we’re not picky.”
Major shoutout to the absolute rockstar behind the bar (didn’t catch your name, gorgeous, but if you’re the one pouring with that effortless charm and trouble-making smile, this review is blowing you a kiss). This legend built my cocktail like it was a flirty love note — perfectly balanced, dangerously delicious, and just spicy enough to keep the conversation interesting. Happy hour 6-8pm with $6 wells and $5 beers? I felt like I was being spoiled rotten on a first-date budget. Service was white-glove quick, zero attitude, all playful banter that had me giggling into my glass and ordering round two before I could even pretend to play hard to get.
In a world of boring lounges that ghost you after the first sip, Kitsch Bar is serving full rom-com main-character energy with a wink, a stir, and pours that flirt right back. No pretentious nonsense, just pure, delicious mischief wrapped in velvet vibes and good times until 2am.
10/10. I’m already counting down to my next rendezvous — probably tonight. Bring your best flirty energy, your favorite smirk, and zero plans after midnight. This spot doesn’t just reciprocate… it escalates. 😏🍸
(Pro tip: Slide in during happy hour, grab a stool at that magical walk-around bar, and let the night do its thing. You’re welcome in advance.)“

“I was very impressed with the Mother's Day brunch. I was greeted with a long stem rose. A bottle of Prosecco was served at each table. I love the fresh orange juice. A wide variety of brunch selections including an omelet bar. Bread pudding with vanilla ice cream for dessert. The price was so reasonable too!“
