Best Casual Restaurants in Santa Ana

Table was ready when when got there. Surprisedly not booked-out. So we received a 4 seater for 2 people. Thank goodness because the Thanksgiving prix-fix menu was insane and took up the entire table. Besides turkey, ham plus you could add prime rib for $10.00. Mashed potatoes green beans casserole yams mac and cheese all of the traditional Thanksgiving meal. Huge to go boxes which were definitely needed. Wish I could remember our waiter name whom was an absolute pleasure. Hate to say it but one of the best Thanksgiving meals ever. Sorry mom.

Amazing service on a busy day. Staff very accommodating to the elderly member of our large group. Everyone from the valets, hostess, bar staff and beyond were fabulous. All steaks cooked as requested and perfect. Thank you for making our dining experience special.

The empanadas are amazing! Everything is quality and fresh! Staff is friendly service was excellent! I will definitely be back!!

A neighborhood gem. Patrons have 2 options for dining. A cafe side open for breakfast and lunch in a more casual setting with a nice patio with heaters and fans. Delicious offerings of fresh desserts that can be ordered to go or with sit down service along with a gelato station. The bistro side has a different menu, open for lunch and dinner. It's good for a business lunch or for just a more upscale ambiance.

Perla was amazing. Food was so delicious. I brought a party of 20 from my company and they were so impressed. Thank you for your service and good food and drinks. The night was special!
