Best Dog Friendly Restaurants in Laguna Beach

Best dinner. Can't believe we had never been before this evening. Wonderful experience. Thank you to our amazing waiter - Jorge ... and the manager on duty this evening. Excellent. Everything was amazing. O

It was an amazing time, even for our toddler. The chef was so interactive with our little one through the window and provided dough, sauce, and cheese to make his own pizza. It can be challenging to dine with little ones, but the entire staff engaged with our child and they had a blast thanks to the friendly staff. Food was amazing as usual - it is the best pizza you’ll have in California. Pasta was cooked to perfection as well. I look forward to visiting again with our little one.

Everything was superb, as usual - the escargot, pate, fries. My husband had pork cordon bleu and found it yummy. I had the endive salad with gruyere and ham, and it was also excellent. The only item that was subpar was my basil mocktail. The basil was over-powered by orange blossom syrup. However, the bartender very kindly made me another without the syrup and it was very good. We recommend Brussels Bistro most highly.

Overall this place is always a grand slam. As people who live out of town and frequent the restaurant it is always a good experience. We made reservations to dine for Valentine’s which did not disappoint. My only gripe if you will came down to the daily specials, we asked our waiter what the daily specials were knowing they are usually amazing. When asking for the items, we also inquired about price of course as that ultimately lies on the decision whether to venture off the normal menu if the value is there. The special was a filet and lobster tail.. we asked the price, our waiter said he believed it was $82. Seemed fair considering the ribeye on the menu was $62. Upon receiving our bill, we were shocked to find the special was actually $115. Considering the smaller steak paired with the lobster tale the value just didn’t match the pricing and had our waiter been consistent with the pricing when ordering it would have changed the outcome of my bill. Overall a little disappointed in the value, but definitely not the food itself or the ambience.

Service, Food and location was GREAT!!! Definitely coming back when it’s not raining.
