We met another couple here for dinner â they love this restaurant. It definitely gets top marks for the professional service. The atmosphere was nice and the historic house where it is located has some character. Food was excellent and the quality was obvious. Tip: Valet parking is in the back.

I have been to Plumeria restaurant several times during the lunch hour. Their service and food are consistent. The prices are reasonable. They have indoor/outdoor seating. They are open for lunch and breakfast only so you will need to be there before 3pm. If you are in the Laguna Niguel area (Design Center), and are looking for good food and ambience, I would suggest a visit to Plumeria restaurant!!

The Montage is wonderful, beautiful, and enchanting. MIT is also very dear, as such places are. But is you stop there for a drink, before going to eat in one of the fine restaurants in the area, you can have your enchantment, and keep you bankroll somewhat intact also. The piano players there at cocktail hour are excellent, and the views are staggering. EnjoyThank you for writing us a review and for complimenting our views - they truly are beautiful! We look forward to welcoming you back very soon.Sincerely, Anne-Marie HoustonGeneral ManagerMontage Laguna Beach

The food is served in huge portions. They have the worst hash browns! They are called âbrownsâ for a reason. Staff are not terribly friendly or efficient. Will we return? Not sure. There are so many great restaurants that do a good job & want to please their customers.

The good thing, is that they allow orders of 1 Egg Benedict, if you aren't very hungry. But the hollandaise sauce is bland and the egg whites not cooked. The fruit was hard and not tasty. I haven't been there in many years and was hoping for a better experience.

Loco Moco is so good! Hard to find this surfer fueling up food outside of the islands. They also have Portuguese sausage, spam and kaluea pork! Pancakes come in all flavors and they have outstanding omelets! Indoor outdoor seating and open early .

Although I've visited this wonderful country extensively, it's my partner in crime's first visit, so he had to experience a 'real' American pancake breakfast.The staff were absolutely charming, friendly and quickly showed us to our seats, despite the place being busy.The menu is vast and there is just about something for everyone.I chose the corn beef hash with poached eggs which was delicious.Others had the French toast and the Eggs Michael. All excellent.To top it off, my partner was given a 'surprise' pancake as it was his first time! Brilliant!The portions were very generous so arrive with an empty stomach!Special mention has to go to our waiter, Tyler! What a star! Attentive, friendly, great sense of humour, there when you needed him....and handsome to boot! Lol.Certainly worth a visit if in the area, but be warned, it apparently gets VERY busy at weekends!

This is a great place for lunch ( I have not had dinner there) with a menu that covers all palets. You can choose from outdoor seating, the bar area or the regular dining area. The service is very good and the menu items unique - I had the tuna tartare appetizer for my meal and it was perfect. My friend had the salmon salad and not only was it beautifully presented but, the salmon was excellent. It was served on top of a large salad with an assortment of farm to table ingredients and a lite dressing. The servers were professional and helped make our meal very enjoyable. I asked the people at the next table how they enjoyed their meals and they said everything was excellent . One person had the pasta and he said it was absolutely perfect!

Went in to this dark and relatively empty place for lunch. The country western inspired motif with scratched table tops and torn seat pads the country music blaring in an empty 3 room venue. A convoluted menu you that the cashier said he canât figure out after three months working there. Itâs Mc Donaldâs style counter ordering with a number issued for table delivery. Then the $31 lunch arrived. Real barbecue. Long and slow cooked it was tasty food. 2 pieces of chicken, 4 ribs and some of the best brisket Iâve ever had. Fair potato salad and nasty macaroni salad. The onion rings (4) are huge and seemed pre made. Good not great. Pricey bordering on too high. Ambiance for those that miss dark Smokey bars I couldnât muster a must go to.
