“Been here about 10 times now, discovered it one day in Newport for my first Mother’s Day, they were giving moms free churros and it was such a pleasant experience we’ve been making the 30 min drive to come back ever since. Always a pleasant experience, service is always friendly and quick, the atmosphere is fun with an 2 inside areas and 2 outside areas andthe food is great (we mostly always get steak Chilaquiles and their steak breakfast burrito). This is a great place for toddlers/kids we love sitting on the patio area with grass and tv, we’re happy and our kiddos are happy. The food is always reliably tasty well cooked meat and free chips and salsa (lots of salsa choices and all good). I’ve even come here with my girlfriend for a mom’s day out. Highly recommend such a pleasant experience and ideal spot for watching sporting events or just to feel comfortable eating out with kiddos!

“This has become a go-to spot for awesome beer, great pinball, and even better company. The pinball machines are meticulously maintained and play great, and they run regular pinball tournaments that are super welcoming and beginner-friendly. The owner and staff care deeply about the quality of the beer and the experience their patrons have when they visit, and the regulars are always warm and inviting. I highly recommend a visit if you truly want that Cheers experience where "everybody knows your name." ?“

“My family and I have been customers of this place for over 20 years. There is no better place in Santa Ana (or Orange County for that matter) for a good old-fashioned birria. It is cooked to perfection. I came today after a couple of years, and they have simply not lost their magic touch. The same staff from years ago making the same delicious recipe. Trust me, this is the spot!“

“This place was recommended, i finally made it! Enjoyed a steak taco and a pastor taco. The meat was very tender and flavorful. The salsas were fresh and delicious. These might be the best tacos I’ve had in some time. I tried their Red (and I’ve tried many), it is well worth coming back for, great beer! Their beer and menu choices are worth repeat visits. I have worked in hotel/restaurant in the past so I can tell they have freshness and great flavors here. Bravo!“

Salty Bear Brewing Brewery • $
2948 Randolph Av C, Costa Mesa - 4.78 miles

“Stopped in on a Wednesday. There are 2 other great breweries in the area which makes it a fun spot to hop around.

Had the light lager, was a little on the butter side, but pretty solid. The bar is pretty cool and modern, had plenty of bar seating and high tops along with a cool little couch as you enter the beer garden.

The beer garden is awesome. Plenty of space, cool lighting, and a stage. Would love to hangout there with some live music. Prices are more than reasonable and the staff is super attentive.

Worth a stop!“

“Food is always great. We were seated this last time and I think they forgot about us, took almost 20 minutes for someone to take our order. Everytime I've gone the last few years the place seems dead.

Parking: A few spots in front, was used for valet back in the day but unsure if they are still doing that. If there is no parking you need to park in the main lot for the shopping center (near Boudin) and walk over.

Kid-friendliness: Kids menu includes fish and chips, mac and cheese, etc.“

“This is one of the greatest pizzas ever. I've tried a lot of pizza in Hb and FV. This had to be the freshest and most unique pizzas ever. They also have great names for the pizzas. I got the Home Alone and Life's a garden, Dig it. Amazing. I will be back for more pizzas. Also, while waiting for my pizza, I tried one of their signature beers. I was also so amazed how great it was, and it was one of the greatest beers ever. It was a great atmosphere, and the customer service was exceptional great. The whole experience was great. I'll be back for more for sure...“

“We held our daughter and son-in-laws “ day after wedding” gathering for friends and family who couldn’t make it on their wedding day in 2021 (because of COVID limitations). We also just held a co-ed baby shower for them just this past weekend there.(2023). You now can reserve an area (for a fee) and get catered platters of food items. This made it so much easier than individual orders. Usually there is a band playing on Saturdays and Sundays. The staff were all nice and great to work with. It was great to have a large outdoor venue for their baby shower.“
