“Cooks is a staple in the biker community of So Cal. The food is awesome and beer is cold… Almost always live music too.“

“Came Up To Work In The Area Today To Repair Some Horse Trailers And I Was Told By A Local Resident James Lacono Megan Coltrane And A Couple Of Others. What an Amazing Place. The atmosphere was incredible the outside seating area look very relaxing. It was busy when I was there so I chose to sit inside nice tables lots of TVs. The staff was amazing and the owner was a very nice lady. I apologize. I forgot her name but she thanked me and it was just a great time. I will definitely be back.“

“Rustic, great food and service!“

“Great pizza for many many years at a good price. We will continue to go there for a pizza needs in the Rancho Santa Margarita area“

“Delicious food with spice levels adjusted to your taste. We tried Lamb biryani, Dal Makhani, Baigan Bhurta (eggplant mashed), Aloo paratha, Chole Bhature (chickpeas curry with fried bread) and Chilli chicken. Everything was great.👍🏼“

“I used to live in the area and happened to find this gem of a restaurant when visiting. The food is excellent and affordable. I had the shrimp dish with rice and paneer garlic bread. It was spiced and seasoned perfectly. I want to add that the chef and staff are amazing. It was well worth the discovery!“

“The food is amazing!!! Knee is the best waitress ever👏👏👏👏🥰🥰“

“Had dinner again with our favorite server, Eleasha. She never skips a beat. She’s always smiling and keeps us on our toes laughing. Love coming to see her when we are in town. Sirloin was great tonight. But we don’t come for the food. ❤️❤️“

“I'm super happy that this restaurant has lived up to my expectations so far. I feel as though there are only a small amount of cons I have for this place. We have received their chips and salsa, and it is one of the best salsas I've ever had because it reminded me of Chevys' salsa but slightly sweeter. For those of you who know what place I'm talking about, it is the Chevys that used to be in Anaheim on Santa Ana Canyon Road before the restaurant El Cholo took over. Anyway, the meal I ordered was the Carnitas platter, and I liked it. As for my boyfriend he got the Green Sauce Enchilada and he thought it was okay so I decided to try it and I didn't like it at all. The reason why the enchilada didn't taste appealing to me is because it had cumin seasoning in it. I think if they removed the seasoning, the enchiladas would taste a lot better, in my opinion. Also, I almost forgot that I also had their matcha latte, which was good.The matcha latte was good because they let me make it slightly sweeter that way the matcha wouldn't be too bitter and it wasn't which I liked. 🍵For dessert, my boyfriend and I ordered the flan, and it tasted really good. I was also happy that my boyfriend enjoyed it, so we would definitely order that again. Last but not least, the customer service was great, and I'm glad there are still some people who try hard to give the best customer service. So my boyfriend and I will definitely come back for the chips and salsa and the flan.Also, a warning for people just trying this place for the first time: I recommend that you bring a smaller party since this place isn't too big. 😊“

“honestly we were just craving italian and this place popped up. the moment we walked in it smelled so good i knew we were in for something special.

i got the lasagna and it was exactly what i wanted, super cheesy and hearty. my friend had the chicken parm and she said it was perfect even the pasta on the side was cooked right. the service was super friendly too our waiter was patient when we took forever to decide.

we sat outside and it was chill even on a busy night. the whole meal felt like a cozy sunday dinner at someones home.

already trying to figure out when i can go back and try the tiramisu.“

“Amazing Vada pav like in Bombay & Maharashtra, fantastic orange dry chutney, fresh fried green chilly and yummy green, tamarind chutney, best Kokam sharbat, masala chai in kulhad, not sweet at all. Mango ice cream, lassi was fantabulous. Kanda bhaji kurkurit like in India, with chat powder. Hmmm. Maja aa gaya, great service, fast n polite. Chef was busy still came n met vaaaa, shrimp masala n lamb chops just like in back home restaurants. Took home lot of food, not pricey at all, gonna try all items n invite more friends n coworkers. You made our day. Sharing in my status all pictures n taste.“

“The staff here is excellent!!!! These guys are always running around doing their best to serve people. I FORGOT you okay it the front so bring cash for a tip. I felt I didnt5 leave as much as I sgould have, I'm sorry. Really awesome and welcoming. Haven't been here since I was a kid. Totally fun for the nostaliga love. The salad bar was awesome, glad to see it open again. Good prices for everything as well. Life you get tons of healthy options here! They still have the cheese toast! That was my treat with the salad. The food is good and simple. Perfect spot for picky eaters, I saw plenty of kids getting food and actually eating it.“

“Excellent meal at The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill! Fresh, flavorful Mediterranean dishes with quality ingredients—gyros, souvlaki, and sides were all outstanding. Everything tasted authentic and well-prepared. Service was friendly and efficient, and the atmosphere is clean and inviting. Great value and consistent quality. A real standout for Greek and Mediterranean food in Ladera Ranch. Highly recommend—we’ll definitely be back!“

“Great authentic Mexican food. The tacos are made with homemade tortillas which were delicious! The mole enchiladas were delicious and so were the chilaquiles. Delicious homemade salsas. Wonderful service and nice relaxing spot for an easy going and homey breakfast or lunch.“

“So healthy and tastes like a treat!“

“12/7/22. In town for a seminar and this restaurant was recommended. Excellent pizza and excellent price. I'll return Friday and grab lunch again on my way home to San Diego!“

“I recomend her cake!! we love what she created for us , RV cake for my husband, it look so real and great that I did not wanted to cut it. thank you“

“3rd time here. Tasty and great food in a no frills clean mom and pop vibe AV location that I think competes well against other Asian restaurants in the s. Oc area. Definitely worthy of a try if you are looking for Korean (Asian) style food. Nice Service too“

“Had a nice evening at Dominicos on the lake this evening. My wife and I had reservations and were fortunate to ask Kory for a patio table which he accommodated. Michael took us to our table and was very kind and professional. Pedro came by with our bread and water and said hello. He is one of the hardest working individuals at the restaurant. Eddie our server came by and took our orders with a bottle of Austin Hope and bread to start. My wife ordered a chicken breast salad and I had the chef's special stroganoff which was amazing. Unfortunately my wife's salad came out 30 minutes after my stroganoff which was a cardinal sin in the restaurant business and we mentioned it was not acceptable. Eddie apologized and we also had Steven, the GM, come by and also apologize and ensure the salad would be out shortly. The salad was delivered, of course after I ate my entree and Steven dropped off and apologetic gift certificate for an appetizer during our next visit. We also ordered an additional beef stroganoff plus an order of meatballs to take home for tomorrow. We undertake things happen and it's certainly nice to see the restaurants busy again but a party of two receiving their entrees 30 minutes apart is not conducive with quality service. I am guessing the chef either misplaced the order or overlooked the obvious and we hope next time we will not have such issues as the restaurant is very good and in a fantastic location. Michael also came back around and stated he was concerned about this mishap and would look into this. As a retired government administrator and former restaurant manager in my college days I expect the simple things like entrees being delivered at the same time to be in sync with quality service and dining. We will be back and see if in fact this was an isolated incident. Good food and ambiance plus. As a writer for Trip Advisor, Yelp and Google I am graceful in my comments and specific in areas needed improvement. Thanks you.“

“Husband and I went there last night during Haunt Hopping in Santa Ana -- and WOW!! Absolutely delicious, filling burgers and crispiest, hottest fries! Very friendly service. Hoping they open some locations near us, but until then, we'll make special trips -- they're that good!“

“Hi. I was there for the first time a couple of weeks ago. I had fish with shrimp (creole on top) . I sat in the bar & the waitress was nice but I asked her if the entry was spicy & she reassured me it was not spicy. Well, it DID have a big kick to it & I could only eat about 1/3 of it because of that. She never came back soon after she served it to ask me how it was or I would have told her it WAS spicy. Your caesar salad was DELICIOUS & I highly recommend it. And your cheesecake with raspberry topping was good too. Had a glass of wine also. Sorry but I won't be back because the entry I ordered was spicy & told it wasn't . That was disappointing.“

“Crispy Palau chart fish Tikka lamb meat balls chicken sandwiches all were amazing“

“Loved their chocolate desert!“

“Welp! As the owner, I have to say it’s a sweet lil spot with great food on the weekends and a perfect spot to pick up anything you need during the week. A great getaway from the madness downtown and a place to reflect and be grateful.“

“We’ve been to Bravo Avo on Valentine’s Day (well, evening actually 😉) and it was exactly what we needed: a cozy place, with live violin music, great service (thank you Cristina for helping us, thank you Ljuba for the dessert suggestion) and tasty food (my salmon was 🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠). The overall experience was amazing, I highly recommend this place!“

“Fast ... very friendly... great foods and great prices... A+++++....“

“What a great place to eat, talk, and enjoy, food made fresh when ordered, the atmosphere reminded me of Sunday dinner, with family and friends. I would highly recommend this gem.“

“Great place. Love the Beatles atmosphere. Great music playing.“

“Great donuts and excellent service“

“If you're looking for true old-fashioned American comfort food, this is the place. It feels like stepping into your grandmother's kitchen. The food tastes homemade, fresh, and made with care rather than mass-produced. Every bite is comforting and satisfying, and the warm, welcoming atmosphere makes the experience even better. Friendly service, generous portions, and classic recipes make this a place you'll want to come back to again and again. Highly recommended if you miss authentic, home-cooked comfort food.“

“They catered our monthly event we call "Together" at Calvary Chapel Pacific Hills last night and all of their food was fabulous! I wish I had known about them for my upcoming Fiesta event in May at my mobile home park. Well I know who will be catering it next year: TB!!!😋🥰😃“

“Amazing food and the staff were so incredibly nice! I keep telling everyone about it. I’m coming BACK.“

“This is the best Hawaiian Breakfast location in Laguna Niguel!! Well done!“

“This place is adorable. We've been here a few times now. Food is good and drinks are great. I mean who wouldn't like googly eyes on their sandwich bun and coconut drink?!“

“they always change their menu. we drive down here from irvine to find out what we like ismt on the menu today its only on the menu on certain days we asked the server when is it on the menu and he didnt know. We won't be back. how hard is it to keep the menu the same? I can see lunch and dinner menus but changin the dinner menus all the time?“

“Calo K's ceviche is delicious.“

“Absolutely wonderful food and service. Never fails!“

“Had a wonderful evening out with my wife at Ironwood Cellars in Laguna Hills. We had reservations for 5:30 p.m. and arrived early. We were greeted by Joe, the manager on duty, who was very kind, professional, and welcoming. Art was our server and is amazingly gifted in customer service professionalism and overall people skills. Yes, showing the love. We started with tequilla drinks from the bar, and we each had a wedge salad. Joe sent us over a wonderful Agnolotti appetizer as well, which was more than kind. The ambiance was positive and upbeat, perfect for the evening. Sergio was also quite attentive in making sure our table was serviced properly. We ordered our entrees with my wife having the halibut dinner, and I had the famous giant meatball dish. Both meals were hot & tasty and presented well. We had a terrific time, and Art surprised us with a complimentary dessert 🍨 with berries. The restaurant is so nice and offers an outdoor patio and bar seating as well. The wine list is extensive, as are the craft beers. Highly recommended.“

“My family and I usually love Jizake and have been to this place multiple times over the years. However after last nights dinner not sure if we will come back. The first issue is that the server forgot to bring us 3 of our appetizers. I also noticed that my hot sake wasn't very hot and that they have trimmed down the size of their rolls. During the meal it became obvious to all of us outside that they were using a wifi speaker and whoesever phone it was hooked up to must have been moving around since the music was going in and out. Lastly while asking for the check I instructed the server to take the appetizers off our bill since we didn't receive them. He said he would and when he came back I was given a hand written bill with the break down. To his credit those appetizers were shown but not charged. I totaled up each line item and everything seemed correct as the subtotal was $170 with tax total should have been $183.17. However after taking my credit card he came back saying they totaled our bill incorrectly and apologized. Our new printed bill after charging my credit card didn't show the pricing break down for all the items but it appears that they added back in the money for the appetizers as with tax it came to $196.11 plus tip. By this point we just wanted to leave. After getting home we started not feeling so well. We don't usually have any bad reactions to sushi so maybe it was some sort of cross contamination issue. Either way I would caution everyone while eating at this establishment.“

“I visited my brother who lives locally. He took me and our other brother here because he loves this place and goes frequently. Being a wine lover, he let me pick our dinner wine. Came across an O’Shaughnessy Cabernet and had to stop right there. I know the product, had the pleasure of drinking this with Luke Russ when he did a wine dinner in northern Illinois a few years back. The owner saw the bottle on our table and introduced himself to us and we talked about Luke. Great moment. Fabulous food! Asparagus fries, halibut, deviled eggs, butter cake…. It was all fabulous! Look forward to returning!“

“We tried the Chicken Marsala, Lobster Ravioli and Gnocchi in VodkaSauce along with the Piccolino dinner salad and Tiramisu. All was magnifico! 😘“

“The Chili Fries, and the Stand Burger is the Best.“

“Our first visit to Bushfire Kitchen was a great experience. My burger was delicious, and the Thai Bowl was really good as well. We also ordered the sweet potato fries, which were probably the best I’ve ever had — perfectly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, which is hard to pull off since sweet potatoes can get mushy so easily. We’ll definitely be adding this spot into our regular restaurant rotation.“

“I had an outstanding experience at DonerG, where they beautifully blend the authentic flavors of Turkish cuisine with vibrant Mediterranean and Middle Eastern influences. I opted for the Original Fladenbrot sandwich with beef, and added chicken as well. Both meats were incredibly well-seasoned, tender, and bursting with flavor. You can truly appreciate the freshness and quality of the ingredients in every bite. The ambiance of the restaurant was welcoming and warm, making it an ideal spot whether you're grabbing a quick bite or enjoying a meal with a larger group. Special mention to Eduardo and Saadi, who were attentive and provided excellent service, making the entire experience even more enjoyable. I’ll definitely be returning for another delicious meal!“

“We have recently moved into the area and heard about 7 Hills from our new neighbors. We decided to try it. We arrived about 5:30 and were able to order quickly and find a seat. Good thing we did because, before long, the line was out the door. The hospitality was excellent and the food and beer were delicious!!! It is so wonderful to have a neighborhood spot like this that the neighbors support. We provided our own Angels viewing, but the Phillies were on their TV! It will definitely become one of our new haunts!!!“

“Always good food and great service at this location.“

“Great service, great food!!👏“

“Sattva is our go-to Indian restaurant!! We’ve been to both locations and have found it to be consistent, delicious, and the service is always top notch! Highly recommend the butter chicken & tikka masala (basic, I know, but SO GOOD). We also have a vegan friend who always appreciates the number of options for her. The mango lassi is also delish!“

“pasta , lasagna very friendly polite and helpful waiter“
