Phenomenal. The staff, the atmosphere…and the food…all of it. They are doing all the things right. I will come back to Laguna if only to visit Nirvana.

It was advertised as a vegan place but had poor vegan/ vegetarian choices. The wine choices were OK.It was an OK place. The ambience was fairly OK. Service was also OK.If you lived in Laguna, it is OK. But nothing spectacular about this

I've been eating around a grill for many years - a friend and I stopped in for a quick bite of an old favorite - the stuffed poblano pepper. It laughed many of the key ingredients that made the original recipe so great there was no texture no substance only creamy and artichokes.Same great atmosphere, but one poblano pepper and two glasses of wine left the bill at 60.00. ?

Something has changed badly here. Typically a favorite there no longer is table service. There's hardly service at all. You order at the counter which was very understaffed. A young guy was doing a masterful job of trying to juggle it all! We didn't stay.

We were a party of 6, welcomed to a wonderful big table for as long as we needed. Everyone loved their meals, I especially enjoyed a poblano rellano appetizer (!) and there was sharing of meals by all— sooo good. Ended meal sharing with a slice of multi layer carrot cake. Super friendly staff.

Chef Lindsey and the Team hit it out of the park. The food and cocktails were outstanding. We were a party of ten so our orders spanned the menu and everyone enjoyed their orders. A couple of recommendations. 1. Order a gin and tonic and let them be creative. 2. Family style salad. 3. Order twice as much cheese bread as you think you'll need. 4. Get the filet. They are awesome through and through! We will be back! Enjoy!

Not celiac-friendly, as the menu might have you believe. Though the menu offers multiple items that claim they can be "prepared gluten free upon request," this statement is false because items labeled GF are cooked in the same oil/fryer as foods containing gluten. Additionally, items on the menu that come with bread or toast are made GF by simply removing the bread with no alternative grain replacement.

Excellent! Everything was perfect! The service was amazing. The food was so delicious. Everyone in my party of 6 ordered a different menu item and there no disappointments. We started the meal with the blue cheese fries and then I had the vegetable vegan plate. There were a few ingredients that i am allergic to but the chef made substitutions. A perfect entree for me #allergygirl !

everyone was super welcoming and accommodated my gluten free/celiac safe needs! one of the best restaurants I've ever eaten at!Dietary restrictions: they can make most dishes gluten free/celiac safe and are very knowledgeable about cross-contamination! as a gluten free celiac, I feel super confident about eating here!

Visted Nirvana back in July and overall had a good experience. Ordered a couple of drinks and a salad which were a bit overpriced but tasted good. One thing to note is that they add a service charge to the check. I am pretty sure this was not disclosed on the menu which is border-line illegal, since I am not sure what I am paying this fee for. Since we were only a party of 2 and we also tipped the server, it would only be compliant that service fees are transparent and aknowledged by patrons before ordering.
