    Server was great! Bartender on the well was very slow and couldn’t magar personal conversations and mix drinks at the same time. I could tell the restaurant has changed ownership. The crowd wasn’t as visible as normal. However, the ambiance looks nice. Food tastes off. Maybe create some new and authentic dishes to reflect the change.

    My friends and I had a lovely brunch experience. We ordered a Carajillo, Pina Party, and Flamingo Float. Our drinks tasted wonderful. We ordered the BLTA Salad, Chicken & Waffles, Steak & Eggs, Apple Brioche French Toast, and Pulled Pork Chilaquiles. The salad was great. We enjoyed the homemade butter with the chicken and waffles. The steak paired well with the chimichurri, toast, and potatoes. The French Toast was interesting with the dehydrated apples. The chilaquiles was perfect. Very delicious! We love the ambiance and environment. It's very spacious. There's bar, dining, and booth seating. Service was friendly, quick, and efficient. Definitely would recommend this spot for cocktails and brunch!

    From the interior to the service to the food, I was impressed! Everyone was so nice in taking my order, clearing empty plates and checking in on my table. The place is super cute and aesthetically designed and decorated. The dinner menu consist of a variety of shareable, salads and main dishes. The shareable all sounded so good but I couldn't resist not trying the crab cake, croquettes, wagyu steak tartare, and Brussels sprouts! My favorite? It's really hard to decide but if I had to choose one, it'll have to be the Wagyu steak tartare! Can't wait to be back!

    Not the same Vibe as it used to be. The lights were way too bright for a Saturday night. Food was good, service was good but they need to change something up. There was barely any customers too for a Saturday night prime time.

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Social Costa Mesa is a gem! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and a vibrant atmosphere. The food was a delightful mix of flavors—definitely try the Wagyu Burger and the pistachio chocolate chip cookies. These cookies were the perfect balance of nutty and sweet—absolutely unforgettable! And let me just say, their Bloody Mary is hands-down the best I’ve ever had! It was the perfect combination of spice and flavor, a total game-changer for brunch drinks. The indoor vibe was cozy and welcoming, with just the right mix of trendy and comfortable. What stood out the most was how family-friendly the space is. It’s rare to find a spot that caters so well to both parents and kids without compromising on style or quality. Perfect for a weekend treat or happy hour with friends—this place has it all. We’ll definitely be back!”

    I came in here for brunch time and it didnt disappoint!! First and foremost, I really loved the interior of this restaurant. It’s modern yet you can feel the socal beach vibes! The restaurant has a large dining area so plenty of comfortable seats to choose from. I love that they have specialty menu for brunch and cocktails that made it easy to choose from. We decided to order: Social Benedict Steak and Eggs Fall Harvest Avocado Toast Pina Party Flamingo Float We really enjoyed our dining experience and will definitely return in the future :)
