    There was a lot of hype from friends about Folks, and I'm happy to announce that I was not disappointed. The do a family style and everything is big enough to share. Everything we ate was fantastic and I especially loved their version of a Caesar salad! Our server was absolutely wonderful too. He was working large parties inside and out and was still getting everything to us in a timely manner and even gave our friend a complimentary birthday dessert. Looking forward to another visit soon!

    We ate here for the first time and I was really excited for the sourdough crust. It was dry and we asked for ranch. Salad was unique but not my idea of a Cesar salad. It's pretty but had a lot of seasoning that's not needed. Wings were flavorful and both sweet and spicy. Ordered the mushroom pizza which had a lot of mushroom and flavor. The crust was just dry. To top it off a homeless guy sat right by us on a ledge near the hammock. He kept falling asleep and slouched over. It made my son very uncomfortable. Staff just walked by like it was no big deal. No security. I get we have to live with homeless people. I would have given him my pizza if he was not staring at me while I'm eating. I spent $94 and won't be back.

    Rating: 8.5/10 Second time at Folk's Pizzeria and it does not disappoint. Caesar Salad had big portions with crisp, fresh leaves and anchovies on top. Only knock is it could've used a bit more Caesar dressing, but other than that it was great. Fish sauce chicken wings were very pungent and tasty. Great choice for appetizer while waiting for your pies. Salami Cups Pizza was my favorite of the night. Salami crisps up perfectly, giving that salty bite in every slice. Crust is crispy, fresh, and made to order. This is the one to get. Truffle Fungi Pizza had really good flavor, but definitely on the heavier side. It was great for a couple slices, but hard to keep going after that. Pizzas took about ~30 minutes to come out, but quality made it worth the wait. One of the better pizza spots in OC!

    Thank god we had a reservation because the restaurant was small! Definitely could be a long wait if you go on the weekend. I went with my friends and got two pizzas to share: Fennel Sausage and Soppressata. My favorite was definitely the sausage because of how flavorful it was! Not sure what they put in the crust, but I had a sauce on the side I used to dip it.. phenomenal. The salad was a nice, refreshing touch to this entire thing. I can't wait for an excuse to come back!

    Friends had treated me with this incredible pizza experience. The pizza bread can be made with sour dough and wow what an incredible difference that makes. The pizza is quite crunchy and thin which is one of my favorite kind of pizza. I only take out one star because the restaurant took longer to make the pizza than expected. My friends had ordered takeout at a particular time and it took 30 min longer than what was originally promised. The ingredients of the food are noticeably fresh. I get the sense that this is elevated pizza hahaha The salad was crunchy and adds the nice balance to the pizza God bless you all+

    Sausage pizza: 8/10. Salty with a crunchy bite and a soft chew. I paid an extra $1.50 for their home made ranch, but would skip out on it next time. It was definitely more muted and buttermilky than herby and tangy. Cesar Salad: 6/10. Would skip out on this nect time. The dressing was a bit too sour for my taste, but if that's something you like-- its for you! Unfortunately, it took about an hour and a half for our pizza to come out. So it's losing a star for slower service.

    Hands down one of the best pizza spots I've been to. Definitely recommend making a reservation, we came in on a Sunday afternoon without one and the wait was about 45 minutes. The place was bustling, but honestly so worth it. The space itself is simple with both indoor and outdoor seating, and the service was great considering how busy it was. The host was so sweet, and the servers and bussers were all working hard to keep everything running smoothly. We ordered the Caesar salad, wings, and pepperoni pizza and everything hit, fresh, flavorful, and just done right!! Already planning my next visit... this one's definitely going on repeat!

    My first time here and I always see this place packed when i come to the camp so i really wanted to give it a try, We ordered the pepperoni pizza and fries. The fries were good but nothing too special i liked the crust on this pizza a lot but overall it was definitely too salty for me. i think i would give this place more of a 3.5 star but the vibes were nice

    Reservations highly recommended! Walk-ins can take up to 1.5 hours depending on the day. Parking: Located at The Camp and parking can be a little difficult because it's a busy plaza. Writing this review after a few visits and I can say that Folk's pizza is amazing! A little pricey with all the add ons but you really get what you're paying for. No complaints on the quality. FOOD - Caesar Salad 5/5 - Free Range Chicken Wings 5/5 - Some of my favorite chicken wings. The Italian fish sauce really gives it that extra umph of umami. Wings were very crispy without tasting overly fried. - Pizza (Fennel Sausage & Pepperoni) 4.5/5: I added mushrooms, roasted garlic, and calabrian chilies. Bomb! Dough was baked just right. Pizza tasted light and the sauce wasn't too overpowering. My only complaint is that I'm not a big crust fan and their pizza slices were basically half crust. I felt it was a little unproportionate to each bite but nevertheless it's one of the best pizzas in OC.

    Soppressata Pizza
    Angela Y.

    This is one of my top 3 pizzerias in the country. The hype is so real We started with the meatballs. They're made with pork so they taste more like Italian sausages than traditional meatballs. Love the slight sweetness. The soppressata pizza was perfectly executed. No notes. It looked bulky at first but I was surprised by how light and airy it was once I bit into it. All the components were flavorful, even the dough itself. We ended with the cheesecake. It was delicious and came with a huge chunk of caramel. Took us 3 days to finish because it was kinda heavy. Make sure you make a reservation because it was full house on a Friday around 6pm.

    Service - waitress was great, friendly and sweet demeanor. The hostess isn't the friendliest, it was a a guy with a beard and did not seem in a rush to help me even when I had reservations I still had to wait 15 mins. The bus workers worked hard cleaning plates and replacing waters quickly. Food - ordered the pepperoni pizza and it was ok. The sourdough crust was very good. Also ordered the fries which were good too. Food costs is very pricey though and you cannot substitute dipping sauces, where ranch costs $1.50! Ambiance - was very, very small location with about 15-20 tables! Few tables empty but without reservations hostess said 1-2 hour wait, which didn't seem right but must be lack of wait staff. WARNING!! PARKING IS INSANE AND BARELY ANY. Likely to park far away and having to walk. Even on a Sat after 3:30pm. Overall, likely not to return.

    Folks is synonymous with made to order pizza with the freshest ingredients. You know it once you take your first bite that the quality level here is well... on a different level. I added Italian sausage to their margarita pizza and even the meat was fresh and unprocessed. The slats of mozzarella and addition of basil leaves is done just like in the homeland. Tomato sauce is super fresh and the pizza dough is simply to die for. I also ordered their Caesar salad - I wouldn't order again because I thought the dressing was way too tart. Either balance it with croutons or dial it down a bit. Nice touch, however, with the whole romaine leaves. Service is pretty unimpressive, and the wait can be long - but there's a reason for that. Folks is definitely my default go-to for delicious pizza anytime when in Costa Mesa. That's all.

    Fries, Caesar salad, wings, and bread and butter
    Dagoberto P.

    The level of service has dramatically improved since the last time I went. Logan was very friendly, and he added to the experience. The food is still as high quality as normal. Their bread and butter doesn't have labneh anymore which is disappointing, but everything else was amazing. Their fries and salad are a must get.

    Is this considered to be Neapolitan pizza, or it's slightly different in some way? I noticed that the Folks website does not mention Neapolitan, so I think it must not be fully Neapolitan, but it does look like it.

    This is the closest you'll get to neapolitan pizza without flying to Napoli.

    Any update on vegan options? I see the question asked a lot and no solid answers.

    Folks has an off-menu vegan option. It chef's choice of the day's vegetable toppings and sauce. no cheese on this pizza and no modifications on this pizza. Just ask your server!

    Can it be delivered?

    They don't deliver, but they do offer take out. You just have to call early because they only have a limited supply on busier days.

    Meeting friends for dinner tomorrow, any garlic free options?

    Not many garlic free options unfortunately. It's Italian food and almost everything has some garlic in it. I know because I have asked. I have garlic and onion intolerance. It's not a lot. Food is so good, I take the chance of having some… Read more

    Can we bring our own bottle of wine for a corkage fee?

    Yes, I believe it's $30 for the corkage fee.

    Do you have high chairs?

    Yes

    Do you offer gluten free dough?

    They do not.

    What protein are the meatballs made from?

    Meatballs are currently made of pork and beef

    Any chance you will go back to opening most days for lunch?

    Yes we have that planned as soon as things are back to Normal

    Are there gluten free options available?

    No gf dough, however we do have snacks and salads that can be gluten free

    Are dogs welcome?

    On the patio, yes.

    Favorite fine dining / Michelin-star restaurant in OC! Can't say enough great things about it!…read more A super intimate, upscale-casual (smart casual vibes with no enforced dress code) restaurant located in the third-floor penthouse of SCP. The space feels intimate because it's on the smaller side, and they thoughtfully stagger reservations so the dining room never feels overcrowded. You can be seated in the main dining room, on the outdoor patio, or on the indoor patio next to the penthouse shops. I come here at least once a year for my birthday because the staff are genuinely warm and make every guest feel special. They clearly care deeply about hospitality and creating a true culinary experience. Honestly, the entire team is top-notch, but on our most recent visit, Kara took especially great care of us. She remembered our preferences, made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed without needing to ask, and made my birthday feel special while also giving my husband and me space (I dislike when wait staff at smaller restaurants hover - they don't do that at all). The way the staff serves, takes orders, clears, etc. is like a really well-rehearsed dance - they want everything to be paced, smooth, and efficient (without feeling forced or robotic) and it really makes a difference. The food is delicious and beautifully presented, with thoughtful attention put into every detail of the flavor profile and color palette. They NEVER miss. I love how they refresh the menu a few times during the year to showcase seasonal ingredients while still staying true to the restaurant's overall identity. They also have a selection of dining experiences - I always go for the 3 course prefix during lunch and the portion sizes and timing of each course is perfect. Also highly recommend their afternoon tea on Saturdays. Couldn't find a more luxurious afternoon tea experience in OC! I genuinely hope they continue to do well! It's a pleasure to be a guest and feel pampered for a special day or an elevated casual meal with friends/family. Will be back many times in the future!

Definitely will be back for the dessert at least... and maybe the tasting menu. Apple (vanilla panna cotta, tatin, earl grey crumble, granny smith: compressed & gelee, green apple sorbet): You gotta come here for dessert. This was phenomenal. The earl grey crumble was delicious and plays well with the sweet tartness of the granny smiths. I'd say the component that felt out of place was the compressed pieces; they tasted like an fresh apple version of tandra which was too sweet and the layers meshed together. Main diver scallops (cauliflower, romanesco, capers, lemon confit, crostini): The scallops were so juicy and perfectly seared on the top. The cauliflowers were good but lackluster. The server told me there's cauliflower puree on the bottom which was yummy. Lemon confit who? There was an essence of lemon but nothing very present. Crostini was essentially like mini plain croutons. Wild Alaskan halibut (braised & fermented fennel, castelvetrano olives, preserved lemon): Only tried a bite of the fish and fennel. The fish was very nicely cooked and the crust on top was delightful. The fennel was sour due to fermentation but I didn't particularly enjoy it.

Everything came out very slowly and not all at once. We can hear multiple other tables complaining of waiting over an hour for food. We have been long time Morton's customers and come for birthdays and all celebrations. We were on a time constraint and felt once we got our food, we had to rush and eat it and cut the birthday dessert short and take it to go. We may need to rethink our future celebration dinners sadly or go back to the Anaheim location. The sea bass was very salty and overly marinated with the miso. The rest of our food once we got them were good; NY steak, filets, crab cake, lobster Mac and cheese, fries, onion rings. Unfortunately, the long wait time over shadowed the good food. Over $500 bill, didn't feel like a $400 service. Giving the 1 star for the good food and the server that was trying to keep many tables at bay because of the long kitchen wait times!

On top of that the menu changes every couple of months, which for me is nice because every time I come here I experience something a little different. Do keep in mind this particular location I've been here enough now that I notice some patterns. there's going to be a seasonal fish that is featured. There's also going to be some kind of stuffed mushroom which I like because I like mushrooms. They always have scallops which are always cooked to perfection. I often order that added on to the entree. There will be at least one steak dish and a chicken and a pork dish. they always feature on the appetizers the lump crab cake. it is what it sounds like, a large lump of crab that is breaded. To me it's not a true crab cake but rather a lump of fresh crab that's breaded and fried. It's ok if you're in to that. The one dish I was curious enough to try today was their Kona crusted lamb loin. I don't usually order lamb unless it's an Indian or middle eastern restaurant. I like lamb but it's not exactly something I crave. so how they explained it was that the Kona was basically using coffee grounds as a dry rub on the meat. So I got curious and ordered it. The grounds basically add a slightly different texture and adds a slight bitterness. Sort of like char from a grill. It was ok and interesting but what stood out the most was the fact that the meat was so perfectly cooked and so flavorful and tender that it overpowered whatever the grounds added to the meat. so I would recommend this solely on the basis of how perfectly tender and flavorful the meat was.

You can tell it's been thoughtfully curated, and the staff really knows how to guide you through it. The pairings are intentional and elevate the entire experience, not just an afterthought. The ambiance is top-notch, effortlessly stylish, warm, and the kind of place that works just as well for a date night as it does for a relaxed night out with friends. And the food... the pork belly taco was absolutely mind-blowing. Perfectly balanced, rich without being heavy, and executed with real attention to detail. This is one of those places where everything, from service to wine to food; comes together seamlessly. Definitely a standout.

    Initially, I made a reservation for two through Resy, but wanted to change it to three. For some…read morereason, you cannot book a table for three. but you can book for two or four. Instead, I called them and they were able to accommodate that change. Since, Bar Tinto is in WIP, we know that parking here sucks. So come early for parking, luckily they were able to hold our table. This review is for Jonathan Garcia's menu. Kushi oysters were served with a lime mignonette already in the oyster shell. Oysters tasted fresh and good quality. The ribeye vampiro was served on a corn tortilla, with a sheet of cheese, and balanced salsa. I was expecting nice thick chunks of ribeye, but it was a thin crispy slice. I enjoyed the dish, but I was hoping for more. I tried my friend's pork belly taco and it's delicious. The fattiness was decadent. I wish I ordered one for myself. In addition, as a wine bar I would expect a wider variety of wines. They are knowledgeable about the 5 wines on the menu. It's ironic facing a wall of wines, but only able to sip on 5 varietals and some spritz options. However, the desserts were delicious and I recommend saving room for both of them. Unfortunately, I would not return here. The customer service was attentive, but kitchen is slow. If you do decide to come here, then I suggest you practice patience or come here on a date with someone you really like. Also, check their IG for an updated menu, since it probably changes often.

Came on a Saturday afternoon and was such a cozy area to sit outdoors and enjoy drinks with friends :) Tucked in the corner with a vintage, maximalist, whimsical vibe. I got the bees knees and the estoy enamorado and both were a tiny bit sweet for me but still really good!

    A very special bar, from the drinks to the decor.

If you have some time while browsing The Lab during the day, I recommend stopping by for a drink! It's also nice to include in your barhopping itinerary in the evening since there are a number of breweries around too. I've had mixed experiences with the bartenders. Luckily, the gentleman manning the bar during my most recent visit was very friendly. Drinks are always great. I've tried a variety of drinks from the menu here, but my favorites are: -Love in Drunk, a lovely cocktail with cucumber and grapefruit flavors that create a fresh watermelon taste when mixed together -Bee's Knees, short but strong and sweet -London Mule, very herbal thanks to the gin and very refreshing
