- DDAVIDNew Mexico •11 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoWe love the Mama Mia meatballs and the music. But prices are getting a bit much.More infoSalerno by Chef PirozziPrice: Moderate• Italian• Laguna Beach•4.6
- JJulieVIPOrange County •45 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoEverything 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.More infoBrussels Bistro - Laguna BeachPrice: Moderate• Belgian• Laguna Beach•4.8

The experience was intimate, the selection was abundant, and the service was excellent. The flavor was perfect. Definitely worth the money.More infoTangoPrice: Moderate• Tapas / Small Plates• Laguna Beach•4.7

- CCraigOrange County •9 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoAmazing! At first, it’s a little off putting that you are not allowed in the restaurant until your seating time. However, once you get in, you appreciate why you were made to wait, and the experience is worth the wait. The attention to detail and freshness of each bite is exceptional. A very intimate setting. We cannot wait to go back.More infoRebel OmakasePrice: Very Expensive• Sushi• Laguna Beach•4.9
