“We love this place. They have great food options for my husband and I. Im vegan and he's not. He loves their onion burger and french toast combo. I get their veggie sandwich on sourdough without cream cheese and I add mustard -- I also sub fries for homefried potatoes. SO GOOD, we go here every sunday!!“
“Scott is always helpful and friendly and ready to make suggestions if I’m uncertain of a good choice. Sandy runs a beautiful, well put together restaurant and she’s always friendly. The food is always tasty and fresh and reasonably priced. I always recommend friends and family to come dine hereVegetarian options: The vegetarian options are plentiful and tasty“
“We love Ironwood and frequent it regularly. One of the draws is Coty. An energetic, sweet, fun and always smiling manager. We will give the new guy a chance .... But I just can't see him being a positive addition. We tried to engage him last night ..but he just lacks the personality for a restaurant with so many young and energetic employees. Time will tell.“
“A definite must try! Great food and easy to work with as they catered my wedding. Food was fresh and tasty. Great feedback from all my family and friends. Will for sure be going back to eat at the restaurant. Owners are very accommodating and will work with you to make your ideal menu for catering.“
“Clean, well organized, well managed "sandwich shop". ? (so much better than calling it that)Another place I went to recently claimed to have the best pastrami sandwich in Orange County. While theirs was very good, it doesn't compare to The Hat.I've eaten at several of their locations and all are superb!!!This visit I got carried away with my order. I ordered a "Pastrami Dip", and an order of "Pastrami Fries". Each on their own can feed two comfortably. The fries are a monstrous mound of taters topped with a generous pile of pastrami (one can add chili and cheese if desired - I didn't).Then there's the sandwich...A soft fresh French style "loaf", about 12 inches, piled with pastrami and had pickles and yellow mustard on it as well.Very Very good...incomparable!!!No, I didn't even finish the fries; I ate the pastrami off the top along with a few fries, took the rest of the fries home.Didn't even touch the sandwich until later in the evening.My beverage was an "Orange Bang".I love Orange Bang, but it's not for everyone...rather sweet.Service was quick and efficient, as was the preparation of the order.Worth the Trip, the Visit, and the Price.“
“This Irish pub is our frequent stop when we are in the mood for its authentic European food experience. A small patio makes for intimate dining, weather permitting. Heat lamps abound for more robust weather. It is not to be missed near St Patty's Day. The place bustles with good old Irish exuberance! Though extremely rushed, our waiter took his time with our large party of 9, and did not make a mistake when serving what everyone ordered. He even added accoutrements without our asking. Definitely stop by during St Patty's to have a rousing good time. And plan to drink a lot of Guinness!“
“We did Door dash for pick up. I personally didn't care for the spicy sauce on the spicy green beans so if I order them again I'd get just the green beans, BUT that's a personal preference. The turkey pot pie was good especially because it was dairy free and I don't usually get to have dairy free pot pie. My family was impressed with the mashed potatoes. If you order a Bite Box it is a single side and a main. The Single Box requires three sides, which is a lot even too much food for lunch or a light dinner. (We were ordering online on DoorDash for the first time so we were confused about how to order just one side and one main but we eventually figured it out.) It was a good healthy lunch and I appreciated that they do dairy free food quickly. It was fast.Vegetarian options: You can specify vegetarian or veganDietary restrictions: Dairy free and Vegan options“
“Love this little diner. So glad like many others it has not closed through these last few years with the pandemic. I’ve always had a great meal from there. One of my fav’s is the Machaca and eggs! It’s so good with their homemade salsa!“
“Not sure if my review was posted but....Will come here again... Alonzo was an excellent waiter....very kind and patient..took the time to answer my questions and made sure I had a good dining experience... The loaded baked potato was delicious.. perfect place for a birthday dinner...“
“Liam is an exceptional individual who consistently demonstrates a friendly and respectful demeanor. His genuine concern for others is evident in his interactions, and his expertise is widely recognized. It is clear that he is a valuable asset to the company.“
“A hidden gem in an unsuspecting strip mall. What an awesome place!!Great food, our server (and the service overall) was great, we had a great time!We sat outside and brought our doggo, she was warmly welcomed! That deep fried French Toast and Snooty Fox Breakfast were very tasty!Expect me back as an infrequent regular. Thanks for a great breakfast!“
“There is a young guy here named Vincent and he made our dining experience SO much better. First of all I think he loves his job. He was smiling the whole time we were there. It was our first time dining in and eating burgers with our little girls and Vincent offered them stickers and hats and was so smiley and kind. He helped us clean up afterwards and offered to help us take a family photo… he deserves a raise and a promotion and a free meal.“
“OC Pizza was always a place I saw near by when I would do my laundry at the laundry mat next over. Let me just say I hate doing laundry, but the best part is coming to get good pizza and amazing secret sauce. I may not be a sports fan but I am a fan of this establishment. I saw they sell fried zucchini and that's on my next try for the following visit. The young lady that works there is really polite!!! Thank you!!!“
“What a wonderful experience ! Had to come back after coming in I came in December when the lake had its Christmas tree lightening. I can't and have stopped talking about the bacon covered stuffed dates and how the food was hot and fresh in everything that was ordered. Yesterday I came in with someone who hasn't experienced and lives near the one in yorba linda. With the experience, atmosphere and delicious food he's making sure to attend his local. Miles our server was the absolute best!!! I mean just down right genuine! He was able to catch on with our humor and laugh. When you have employees like this it just makes experience being there and the people your with so much better. We also asked for his opinion on selections for our meal. Instead of saying "I don't know" he was able to pick something from each section in what he enjoys but also what other customers truly enjoy. Having this knowledge and able to share just puts a little more confidence in what you are choosing. I split the pastrami dip sandwich with my friend and we both found it down right delicious. the pickles on that amazing. The dipping sauce was amazing too and I couldn't decide to dip or not. My husband got the chipotle sandwich which was amazing especially the sauce. With that I will definitely be back-hopefully to get pictures next time- but also will be checking for miles to be our guy if he's working!“
“9/12/2023Went for a nice walk this morning and landed at Terrace On The Green for breakfast. I was greeted by Lily, who provided stellar service and was a joy to talk to. I ordered the farmers' omelet with sliced tomatoes and a cup of black coffee. The breakfast was wonderful, as was the ambiance. I finished breakfast and continued my morning walk. Recommended.6/4/2023Had a terrific sunset dinner at Terrace on the Green tonight. Our favorite server, Sierra, helped us with our dining experience and just lights up the place with her amazing personality. We started with drinks and shared the wedge salad. This place is so nice and truly a hidden gem. Sierra took our main entree order, and each ordered the salmon tacos, which are utterly the best around. The chefs prepare amazing dishes, and we just love this place.If you are hungry and around Marguerite and Costa Del Sol, you must stop by and try this fantastic establishment. Ask for Sierra as she lights up the place! Great food, service, and ambiance!!Highly recommended5/29/2023Went for a nice 2 hr walk today and had reservations for Terrace on the Green at 2:30 pm. Lily was our server, and what a positive vibe and outlook besides being professional, helpful, and attentive. We started with the wedge salad and some drinks made by Tim, our favorite bartender. We then ordered a few entrees with salmon tacos and a Margherita pizza. Both entrees were quite tasty and well presented. The ambiance is so peaceful and nurturing and the food, service, and people top shelf. It is truly a hidden gem here in the heart of Mission Viejo! It's a must try for all you foodies and fellow yelpers! Highly recommended.5/28/2023My wife and I went on a wonderful 2 hr walk this morning and landed at Terrace On the Green for breakfast. We were greeted by the lovely hostess who was warm and welcoming and were seated by Paul the GM, a wonderful and kind gentleman and terrific host. We ordered breakfast with both of us requesting the farm fresh omelets, and they are amazing. Kennedy, our gracious server, came and checked on us, delivered our entrees, and was very professional, kind, and caring. The breakfast was delicious, and the ambiance was fantastic as we were surrounded by lush greenery and a beautiful golf course setting. Recommended.5/19/2023It was such a wonderful morning at Terrace on the Green. I stopped by for breakfast, and the hostess was kind and seated me inside at a nice window view table. Steve, the GM greeted me upon arrival and has such a welcoming and friendly demeanor. Nancy, my amazing server, just made the meal and dining experience that much nicer with her fantastic outlook, kindness, and conversation. I ordered the farmers fresh omelet with potatoes, a cup of coffee, and an orange juice, and everything was presented quite well and tasted so good. I learned about the fundraising events from Rochelle, the events coordinator, and kindly donated to the event for animals that is taking place tomorrow. Wonderful people, amazing food, and an ambiance that brings peace to the soul.Highly recommended5/11/2023This is by far Mission Viejo's most hidden gem! Paul, the GM, had brought to Mission Viejo an amazing setting with an ambiance adjacent to a beautiful golf course setting. The service is stellar, and the entire staff is worthy of praise. Paul runs a very nice restaurant with breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus, and he is also a master chef as well working with chef Ricardo on the menu creations. Tonight, we stopped in for dinner and drinks, and let me start with Tim, who tends to the bar and makes exquisite drinks to perfect. The double tea time made with tequilla is as is the patron, club sofa, lime, lemon, and mint. The food is delightful, and Kelly stopped by to assist and was simply amazing as well. Tate delivered our food and was also attentive and quite kind. The bread and butter were so good and fresh. I ordered the skirt steak medium rare with fingerling roasted potatoes and arugula, and all I can say is WOW. Highly recommended.“
“Our Place Lake Forest is a great neighborhood Bar/Restaurant. The staff is very friendly and they take good care of the customers. I host an Open Mic there on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday every Month. It is always Taco Tuesday when I am there. I get the Beria Tacos and they are delicious. Our Place has great music on many other nights. They also have comedy nights and are great supporters of the LGBTQ community. The owner cliff is a great guy and does an awesome job of running the place. I highly recommend Our Place.“
“Around 1130am. Wednesday Nice cheerful people working here, Carla was my cashier and i think it was Carmen out in dining areas making sure all is good and keeping everything clean. Overall all the staff here was cheerful and had positive attitudes and uplifting.“
“I absolutely love black market meal prep. They have saved me so much time I have still allowed me to eat healthy while at work. As a first responder, I don’t always have time To go to a restaurant to eat, so having my food with me Makes my life easier. Between the chimichurri sauce, and the green salsa, I swear I could eat every meal with that. The service is always on point. I actually found a workaround for the straws because I love their smoothies and protein shakes but yes, they are a little bit thick for the straws. So I ended up bringing my own straw which are a little bit thicker. I bought them off of Amazon after California decided to make everything out of paper. Keep up the phenomenal work black market, I love your food and your service.“
“Great experience and a very nice course, the home of PGA pro Michael Block! The greeting and clubhouse is nice and they do take care of you. I rented clubs and bought some golf balls/ hat. They carried my clubs to a very nice cart and were very pleasant!The price before 1 however is steep! $155 a round. After 1 it’s like $80? Or so.Didn’t take advantage of the grill but patio and clientele I met were awesome. Definitely a great experience, just wish it didn’t take such a bite out of my midwestern wallet on a Monday!“
“Service is good, food is great. I like the views from the place. It's a good place to go, I try and come here often. I feel the staff is super helpful and check on me often. Tha stmophere is incredible. Looking forward to coming back next time I play golf and I'm in the area“
“I love this place. Every fish option i've tried here is always excellent. And friends with much more depth of wine experience than me, have mentioned that the wine list is top-notch as well. Stacey and the rest of the staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend!“
“We made reservations for Dublin4 and it seemed pretty wild so they walked next door and sat up at the high top at Wineworks. Such a better atmosphere. Both restaurants share the same kitchen and restrooms. And there’s a lot of similarities between the menus but this has the better options.I always complain that OC doesn’t have great food but this place knows the game. And the wine menu is excellent. I even had a Pinot Noir from Baden, Germany. All dishes were excellent and the service was even better. Only complaint is the parking is terrible so good luck, maybe the lot is bigger in the back.“
“We first discovered this place in San Diego and now we go here for breakfast every time we get the chance. We love eggs Benedict and they have some original twists on it, and even an option to get two smaller portions of different varieties which is what we like to do. The kids loved the French toast and their hot chocolate is excellent. We don’t drink coffee or alcohol so I can’t comment on that but we try the hot chocolate every where we go and theirs is so good, especially with the cinnamon they add. I don’t think you’d go wrong with any of their menu items.“
“Stop by for date night and we can’t wait to come back! The staff was very friendly and walked us through their self service options for ordering. The food came out fast, full of flavor, and generous servings. I really appreciate that they share the kitchen and dining room with Pita Pita. It makes you feel like you’re at a mini food hall. Totally ordering their family meal next time! Shout out to Jacob for being so kind with us while we ordered.“
“If you want a fantastic comfort food joint with some solid drinks Mama's does NOT disappoint! Their portions are huge, so leftovers for the smaller appetite, but the food is delish! I normally have my tuna melt which is a cheese pull from heaven ?, but I've never been disappointed with their tots either, so good!“
“By far my favorite sandwich here! The yogi is made perfect every time and go great with the rosemary fries. I was greeted eagerly upon arrival & was given recommendations on which beer to try by the nice young man, Angel. Will definitely continue coming here!“
“I want to start up by saying this is fabulous, X/Padas Bar and Grill is fantastic!!!!! This was our first time there, upon entering we were met by Cesar. I did not know that he was the owner at that time. I did not find out that till later on that evening we went there for brunch and it was fantastic we had the eggs potatoes Pancakes everything was fantastic. We also had the vegetable Panini vegetarian for me and another one of our friends had the fish and chips. Everything was delicious and deductible. Definitely five stars was our server and she was fantastic, she deserves a raise. I'm so happy that there is a bar grill in our neighborhood. Thank you so much for opening up, OK now here's what happened. It was St. Patrick's Day so we went back there for the evening and for cocktails and more food they didn't disappoint. We had the Saint patties, cocktails margaritas, beers, and shots and we all shared the Lorn cauliflower delicious and the Cuban sandwich the entertainment was fabulous, Dave and Jean amazing. We even got up and danced. This is going to be our new hang out. Thank you so much Cesar he remembered me and he made us feel very welcomed. Wait, that evening was Lauren. She deserves a raise too. Can't wait till next Friday we will be there for the reggae. I have to add to my review that servers name was Bella and it was the Lechon that we ate and the other servers name was Lauren. Thank you. Thank you so much. Fabulous place do yourself a favor and go there. You will enjoy it.“
“Wow! What a place, some of the better hot chicken I've had, let alone in Orange County. The hot is a dry-rub and HOT. The fried onion is perfection, and I can't recommend coming here enough.They have a big menu, too, with a lot of variety.“
“I enjoyed a healthy salad ? with chicken and a nice glass of Rose wine ? My son had beer ? and a burger ? We also enjoyed some appetizers at Eureka! Everything was good, the food, drinks, service and atmosphere!! *They are dog friendly on the lovely patio.“
“Honestly. Best food in town bar none. Old school family business and exceptional Italian bistro cooking. Want breakfast? How about home made croissants, pastries and Italian espresso you can’t buy anywhere? ? Really. It’s soo good served in a delicious cup. Service is exceptional from awesome people. Letting out my little secret ?.“
“This location recently changed hands from Ruby’s to OC Diner. There are a few slight changes to the menu, service and overall real, but for the most part, same ol same ol. The service was a bit on the slower side as they didn’t have a host to seat you. This caused a bit of a service snapfoo as people sat where they wished and then servers had to adjust who and where they serviced based on next come, next serve. The menu prices were a bit on the higher side to adjust to what I would beleive to be high rent costs. But 3 and 1/2 buck for a so-so cup of coffee, hard pass. This is a 50’s diner feel, with 2035 prices. The vibe was a bit off and didn’t have that classic old school 50’s uniform, music and attitude going on… Which we all seem to love when visiting a diner. The plating was a bit to be desired and seemed a bit rushed really. It felt more like this had been saved as an investment and not a passion. Had the pleasure of visiting the Ruby’s in the South Coast Plaza Mall and was pleasantly surprised it was still a ruby’s and rockin the awesome old world diner vibe! Sad to see this location falling away from the diner vibe as it used to be a great go-to spot when in the area.“
“Located in the Eagle Glen Golf Course club house, this hidden gem is amazing! Host Pauly Castillo makes the experience phenomenal because of his attention to detail and his exquisite customer service! Pauly has a way of making one feel like they are the most important person in the bar-for everyone!“
“After a long days work of watching friends and spouse at tennis camp, what better way to refuel than healthy salad and a filling sando? The restaurant has a pleasant sit down style layout with more cushy seats on the far wall, but we weren’t just looking for a place for its looks. Our cashier took our orders with lightning speed and we got our food in less than 10 minutes with 5 ppl ordering. Service to get seated was *chef’s kiss*. Wife ordered the steak chimichurri sando with home made buns and I got the keto salad with extra meat. HIT THE SPOT. After nearing food coma, we brought our plates back to its storage home for clean up near the exit, and went back home on our merry way. Would I come back here? You darn right I will.Let’s go!!“
“Stumbled upon Scratch Bakery Café while searching for breakfast online, and it was a delightful find! Their English muffin egg cheese sandwich is an absolute delight – made from scratch, it's a must-try. My boyfriend enjoyed the southwest breakfast sandwich, and we topped it off with a perfect cinnamon roll. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a delicious brunch before a beachwalk in Orange County!“
“We were looking for a place to end the night in the big plaza, and this was the one that popped out. They have a big stage and TVs outside for live music, DJ or just videos from the '80s. They have live music on weekends, and they pride themselves to bring nice local bands. The owners, Matt and Gina are really nice, and take the time to talk to customers. They still have to work on the menu, it's pretty simple, but is satisfying for now. Big bar, high tables, and lots of tables for families inside. Big patio for live music outside. Lots of locals having fun, enjoying talking to each other, which is probably the main reason to come here.“
“I came with my two daughters on Taco Tuesday, and WOW. Their tacos are chef's kiss. Not to mention, the drinks are phenomenal! The Mango Tea and Berry Spritz mocktails are delicious, and the house margarita is amazing. The carnitas tacos are to die for, and the shrimp is terrific. They're tender, and just wow. If you're into spicy food, you should definitely get the chipotle chicken taco. The servers are extremely nice people, and very polite. While the service is slightly slow, it is totally worth it! Overall, this place is amazing. I am definitely coming here regularly!“
“We were staying at the attached Ayres and decided to have dinner close to our room...can't be any closer since it's on the 1st floor of the hotel! Ordered two burgers to our liking and it arrived quickly at our table by the kind and attentive waitress. Was worried mine would be raw, but not! It was perfectly cooked. Seems like a great place .“
“The brunch is excellent! The brunch serves breakfast as well as lunch items so if you stay long enough you get two meals out of it. Last week they had prime rib! The bottomless mimosas are actually very good - they don't taste like the cheap stuff. I can't wait to invite friends to discover this place and will for sure be coming here regularly.“
“First, we definitely had a great night at Rancho Capistrano Winery. The staff was incredibly kind, but service was a bit slow on Friday night. We received our first round of drinks quickly but our empty glasses sat for about 15-20 minutes before our waiter came by to ask about refills. We probably would have gone for a third round but I barely had time to finish my second drink due to the delay. Not a big deal at all though, they were clearly busy. It is very noisy inside and every voice echos from all the hard surfaces. It is themed fantastically though. Unfortunately the outside noise level isn't much better and while the fresh air is nice, there was very little ambiance and it didn't feel like the restaurant theme and decor made it to the patio. We were sat next to a very loud table and found ourselves almost having to yell to each other to hold a conversation due to the echo. The dinner was great and the dessert was even better. My pizza was very greasy and floppy but the crust was fantastic. Quality was there for sure. Not a bad restaurant at all and the staff is very friendly but I don't see us returning.“
“Always excellent service and quality food. But this is the second time in a row that the chef did not have extra "corn puree" for the Chicken Risotto dinner. Without it, the dish is dry. If the chef won't make extra, at least add corn puree over the chicken too, as well as on the plate.“
“The chicken pieces have gotten smaller since they opened the pricing is the same if not more which means the value for the money has gone down overall it's still tasty but I'm not going to be coming as often since the value for the money has gone “
“Paul’s a weekend brunch heaven. Classic Diner atmosphere and great service. Lots of chooses on the menu. Lots of regulars. Seems the staff know almost everyone. The owners run the place and are very attentive to their customers. Classic mom and pop place. Perfect place if you want an hardy meal. Not a fancy place but comfy. Very popular with locals from Mission Viejo and Ladera Ranch.“
“We come here at least once a month. The food is delicious & they change the menu often, which is delightful. It's not boring. The staff is very friendly & know their menu especially their drinks. Always a pleasant experience.“
“So I was contacted by the company and they convinced me to give them another try. Everything was 180 from my previous visit. Seated quickly, responsive waiter and coffee that was actually hot. It's breakfast, so not too hard to NOT mess it up. Breakfast food was good.“
“This place is really great if you wanna see a movie. This is a very fancy place for me and all of the movies I've seen here have had great environments! The only thing I'd say is sometimes I do notice that the floor is somewhat sticky which is why I put it down to 4 instead of 5. Another thing is that the service is generally really great! I haven't really gotten around to trying any of the food, but I hear it's pretty good.“
“Great sports bar for dinner and drinks! They have all sorts of events every week including live music, Karaoke and line dancing! They have a couple billiard tables, arcade games and horse race betting booths as well! Great place to pop by if you're in town!“
“Situated at the cusp of suburbia of Lake Forest and the nature of Trabuco Canyon is the famous and popular roadhouse biker bar, Cook's Corner located in South Orange County. It is a cute wooden structure that holds a kitchen and full bar, which is connected to a large patio area with lots of additional outdoor seating and a large stage where many live bands have played on the weekends. This is a great spot to stop for a drink and some bar food. This past weekend we stopped in for an early dinner and all enjoyed different selections of burgers and fries along with a few beers. We will definitely be back!“
