50 Best Salad Restaurants near Rancho Santa Margarita

“customer service definitely recommend it“

“A wonderful evening at Todos Santos with my wife. We were greeted by Daniel the owner and chef extraordinare who took us to a very nice table in the outside patio. We started off with drinks which were made by one of our favorite bartenders Jaime! The other bartender of choice is Francisco who had the day off. Kenya was our waiter and was superb, very personable and professional. We each ordered the appetizer salad which were so good. We spoke with Daniel about the fresh fish and decided on the Sea Bass for my wife and I ordered the Salmon and lobster plate. These two dishes were amazing upon presentation and even tastier than they looked lol. I must say since we began dining at Todos Santos from when Daniel took over this place has blossomed this restaurant into the best Mexican cuisine in Orange County. With multiple awards to his credit Daniel has new menu items that he creates regularly and now opens after hours on Tuesdays and Fridays with a DJ and dance floor. On Saturday and Sunday the restaurant serves breakfast from 10 am to 2 pm and the dishes are delicious. Make a reservation and ask for Daniel. Let him know George sent you. Great place, great food and amazing people! Highly recommended“

“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.“

“Always our choice for Thai food!“

“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“

“One of my all time favorite places. The people and management make It like “friends” but with a really unreal grilled cheese sandwich and soup. Get the soup with the sandwich. Add bacon. That is all.“

“Restaurant is clean and open. Their sashimi bento box lunch special [includes miso soup, cucumber salad, tempura, half CA roll, and seven slices of quality sashimi served with real wasabi!] is the best and it was only $20.

“My husband and I stopped in on a Friday evening. We were the only patrons which made me a little concerned at first but there was consistent takeout pickup the whole time we were there. Our apps were fresh and prepared to order. I had the green curry and my husband had the KUA-KRING SIAM, both had incredible flavors and just straight up delicious!“

“Had an awesome experience at Board & Brew! The service was fantastic—fast, friendly, and super welcoming. The bartenders were especially great, creating a fun and relaxed vibe. The sandwiches and salads were incredibly fresh and full of flavor—definitely made with quality ingredients. Perfect spot for a casual meal with great energy. Can’t wait to go back!“

“This is my second time having their pizzas after a great first experience, and they were just as delicious! We tried the butter chicken and chili paneer pizzas—both were bursting with flavor. You can tell they use very fresh ingredients, and the dough was perfectly soft, even the crust was amazing.

Definitely give this place a try—you won’t be disappointed! The service is excellent, and the staff are wonderfully friendly and knowledgeable about their menu.... They were the ones that recommended the chilli paneer and I'm so glad they did.“

“I Loved The Chicken Very Tasty & Yummy I Wish They Had More Locations Here In California“

“I got a craving for a beef dip. Found this place and realized I could get au jus with any sandwich... So I got the Hitman. SOOO GOOD!!!! They even had horseradish. I'm fat and happy now. I wish they had this restaurant by me in San Diego. For now, I'll be back so long as I am working on this project nearby! I want to try their other sandwiches.
The side salad was good too.“

“Went in with 12 kiddos from the nearby elementary school. I was greeted and helped by Dennis initially and could not have been treated any better. He was very accommodating and helpful with ordering. K assisted next and got all the food ready in great time. Highly recommend! This team made the party happen! Very thankful for their help.“

“This place is gold. If you haven’t tried Olive Garden yet, you’re missing out! GO right now. Seriously!

Our waiter Josh was the best I’ve ever met in this industry. Not only was he positive and brought a friendly atmosphere, but he was also prompt and incredibly helpful while being respectful and polite. It made my day and my whole dining experience so pleasant.

I can’t stop smiling because this level of service is RARE! Like I said, gold!!!!

The food? ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL! I recommend the Lasagna, the Zupatoscana soup, and a sweet iced tea. There are so many tasty options, all for a very fair price.

The food will be better than what you’ll get at a 5-star luxury million dollar restaurant. It’s that good.

This is not a sponsored review. I just wanted to share my intensely brilliant and fantastic experience at this location!“

“We want to thank CPK for honoring Veterans today. They gave a delicious complementary supper tonight with a nice menu. The food was delicious. The staff was excellent. Service was fast. Manager thanked the veterans and gave us a handshake and a flag. He even had a table set for the missing soldiers , sailors, and Marines. Happy that everyone in restaurant was having a great time. Staff was all friendly and excellent. We eat here about ever other month. Very affordable, great pizzas and pastas“

“Great customer service. Well oiled machine. Friendly staff. Great food. Attentive manager. 1/30/2021, 3pm“

“Great food, great service, the whole place is immaculate. Great quality and value, hidden gem tucked away in Courtyard at La Paz .“

“Tried the new salad - the seasonal GOAT with apples. chicken, goat cheese, pink lady apples, dried cranberries, honey roasted almonds, pickled red onions, shaved fennel, fresh mint, romaine, kale, mixed greens, farmhouse vinaigrette, hot citrus honey. Yum.“

“great food and location \n\nBut even more importantly, on Thursday, Sept 25 , I'd like to give a shout out to a staff member (Heidi) who took her time while passing out ice cream samples to two special needs adults and their chaperone to really feel "seen".\n\nHeidi's warmth was on full display as she returned with an extra sample. Well done, Heidi. The entire table(s) area noticed your compassion by taking a little extra time to make them feel welcomed.“

“I was originally planning to leave a 3.5 or 4-star review for Blaze Pizza, but something happened that encouraged me to change it to 5 stars. The quality of the pizzas was good for the price, although a part of the crust was slightly overcooked, and a bit more attention during baking would have helped. Still, overall, I’d say the quality was solid considering the price point.

In my order, I had included a Caesar salad, which I realized was missing when I got home. I called the restaurant to let them know, and after checking my email later, I saw they had refunded part of the cost. This level of customer service truly impressed me and convinced me to add that extra star.“

“The new Smoky Oaxacan Shrimp 🍤 Bowl 🍲 is one their best creations. How can you beat rice and beans, Shrimp, guacamole, tortilla strips, and chipotle sauce. Probably a lot of sodium so you may want to get it to go and save some for later.“

“Delicious Chicago style and thin crust pizza. Their chicken wings were great too! They even had live entertainment outside. I will definitely come back again.“

“Excelente Servicio 100% Recomendados“

“It’s a delicious takeout pizza spot. Not sure what the poor reviews are about. I’ve been coming here when I want good pizza for several years now, and it always hits the spot. The owner works very hard and makes the most delicious pizza. From the crush to the curl of the pepperoni. 🍕 highly recommend.“

“It was a distinct pleasure to finally experience this highly anticipated Thai establishment. The ambiance immediately transported me to Thailand, a feeling unequivocally reinforced by the exceptional cuisine. Each dish showcased an impressive authenticity of flavor. The Green Curry with chicken was a particular highlight, perfectly satisfying a long-held craving. Additionally, the shrimp fried rice was a masterclass in balance, offering a delightful texture and exquisite taste. Beyond the culinary delights, the staff's remarkable hospitality and the impeccable cleanliness of the premises further enhanced the overall experience. I eagerly anticipate a return visit to savor the green curry again and explore more of their enticing menu.“

“Staff here are so nice and helpful! After soccer my son wanted quick food before his next game so we pre-ordered the food and ran in to grab it. Due to the busy time they were running a little behind but they saw him in his soccer game asked if he was going to a game and after him informing them he was in a hurry to the next game they rushed to get the order to him. The young redhead gentleman was especially nice and made my son feel cool with his compliments. Super awesome employees!“

“Very good food with my baby“
