“Goodbye Over Crowded Starbucks! I just found a great remote working/studying spot! Was super quiet here and the free wife helps! Healthy drink options and had my dinner too! They are so welcoming! So kind! Food was great! I’m picky bcs I don’t like salty foods and here was not salty at all. The pork and the beef bowls with the egg just hit that spot for me. Thank you!“

“The food is good, with vegetarian options available. The servers are attentive and trying to give the best experience. I took one star off service as the order was wrong for a couple of our items, but they did make the dishes again. Nice setting and if you get there earlier in the evening there is no wait.“

“Amazing service, great decor, great food. What more could you ask for ? The smoothies are great BUT could be a meal replacement if you wanted a heavy smoothie. We got the breakfast burrito and it blew us away. The ships and roasted red salsa was a great addition to the meal. We split it because the burrito was HUGE. Will be coming again to try seasonal drinks, the bowls, and different smoothies! Thank you guys!“

“They’re set up in the Laguna Beer Co spot, and the changes they’ve made are all for the better… sounds like there’s more to come as well. Best deal in town is the lunch special—$10 for a half sandwich (it’s huge), chips, and a soda, and for a few dollars more you can get a beer instead of soda.“

“Great Breakfast Spot in Rancho Santa Margarita!
It was a hot morning when I decided to grab breakfast at Aloha Stacks in Rancho Santa Margarita, having enjoyed their locations in Dana Point and Mission Viejo before. True to form, Aloha Stacks delivered a tasty, filling, and healthy meal.
I walked in and was able to place my order quickly. I went with eggs over medium, potatoes, turkey sausage, an English muffin, and coffee. Finding a comfortable indoor table with cushioned seating was easy. The atmosphere had a medium noise level, typical for a breakfast spot with families and younger folks enjoying their meals. But there were several tables outdoors in sun & shade & many looked like Aloha Stacks customers sampling the outdoor ambiance.
My food arrived hot after about a 10-minute wait. The potatoes were not oily, and the turkey sausage was lean and cooked perfectly to my preference. The eggs were over medium as ordered, and the English muffin was nicely toasted and warm, melting the butter right in. The coffee was good, standard restaurant quality in a pleasant way. The wait staff was attentive, refilling my coffee twice and promptly clearing finished plates.
While it was a bit on the pricier side (around $28 with tip), the overall experience was very pleasant. If you're looking for a solid breakfast with good service and healthy options in Rancho Santa Margarita, Aloha Stacks is a great choice!“

“The manager at this Panera is ON. I have been to many Panera’a and this is the most motivated hands on manager I have ever seen. Have seen him take over all facets of the business, front counter, chef, line, tables. This place is clean, calm and quick food. The only suggestion is fix the tuna please. I know you can do better. Thank you“
