    Chilaquilles
    Barbieejo A.

    Nice location. We.were quickly greeted. We ordered the 1.00 dip/hummus of the month it was green chili dip cream.cheese base. Very good. I ordered the tropical tea and they kindly refilled often. I off the green Verde chilaquilles they were quite good with 2 fried eggs on top. Nicely portioned and great flavor. I did like that they serve breakfast all day. Also ordered mushroom roasted sandwich. So good with the melted toasted cheese bread. Dressing and lettuce complimented it. Very pleased with both orderes. That's a bonus. The weather was quite hot but the umbrellas and shade covered nicely. Server was really nice. Definitely come back.

    Chilaquiles Verdes
    Victor A.

    I've had a few dishes here but the chilaquiles veredes are the best in OC hands down. The chips are served a crunchy since the sauce, feta cheese (gives a nice flavor), pico de gallo, and fresh slices avocado melts in your mouth. Service is an A plus with friendly and welcoming smiles from the time you walk in, consistent coffee and water fills until your belly is full. The outdoor ambiance on a nice warm day makes this place a perfect way to start the day before you hit the Orange Circle for antique shopping. Cheers to the servers and cooks.

    Cafe Milano

    I had an amazing lunch here on a weekday afternoon. It was a nice day so we decided to sit on the front covered patio. It was a bit cool so they had their heaters on to keep us comfortable. There is also indoor seating with a charmingly cozy atmosphere in what is formerly a house. Barbara was our server and was informative, attentive, funny, and full of personality - she made our meal all the more enjoyable. The menu here is HUGE with lots of sandwiches, salads, bowls, soups, etc. I ordered the Ruta Club Sandwich and an iced tea. The sandwich was on sourdough bread and contained ham, turkey, cheddar cheese, and tomatoes. Packets of mustard and mayo were put on the side to add as I wanted. The ingredients were fresh, especially the vibrantly flavored tomato slices. A small pasta salad on the side as well as a pickle completed the plate. It was an excellent sandwich. Instead of dessert, I had a coffee drink; Cafe Milano. This Viennese coffee tasted of cocoa and cinnamon with whipped cream on top. Excellent!!! The service, atmosphere, and great food combined to make this a fantastic experience. Note: Parking in the area can sometimes be challenging. When visiting the Orange Circle area I always park in a free structure a couple blocks away on Lemon Street just off Chapman Ave.

    Dala Garden Salad with Chili Combo - Bowl

    I met a friend for lunch and he suggested Rutabegorz because it has a great selection of vegetarian options. The place is very conveniently located in downtown Orange and has a really nice inside and outside area to enjoy the food. The service was great with a friendly staff and also er efficient service. The food was good and very tasty. It is ver close to Chapman University and draws all kinds people. The price was very reasonable and I am looking forward to going again. I haven't been to this location before but it has more room than the one in Fullerton. If you like good food and lots of different options for both meat and vegetarian items, you have come to the right place!

    Excellent experience on a Saturday late morning, around 11:30 am. We initially were going to the filling station cafe, but as usual is it insanely busy and food is just ok. If you walk down across the street and a few more steps, you'll find this relaxing, welcoming, and quieter restaurant. No wait, plenty of seats, very welcoming staff. Great for a nice breakfast and lunch date or with friends. Food was good, flavorful and delicious, and the sweet potatoes dip was awesome. Good value, good flavor! Professional waiter and staff!

    Scrambled eggs, turkey sausage, half a turkey sandwich, and a bowl of cockie leeky soup.

    Yesterday after going to the Hilbert Museum my friend and I had lunch at Rutabegorz in Orange CA. My friend had scrambled eggs and turkey sausage. I had a bowl of cockie leeky soup and half a turkey sandwich. Everything was very good. For fans of such things, cockie leeky soup was one of the items on the April 14th 1912 First Class lunch menu aboard Titanic. Later that night Titanic hit an iceberg. Since I was going back to Los Angeles on the train, I wasn't worried about the train hitting an iceberg.

    Breakfast quesadilla
    Marie S.

    Craving something warm and cheesy, the breakfast quesadilla did not disappoint. Loaded with egg, cheese and black beans with side of guacamole, sour cream and pico. Couldn't eat it all! Nice, peaceful patio seating in old town Orange. Staff were very outgoing and kind. Made everyone comfortable and made sure everything was good. Large vegetarian menu plus some chicken and tuna based options served beer, wine and mixed drinks. Open at 8 am daily serving breakfast as well as seasonal specials and regular menu items. Great way to start the morning

    Breakfast menu.

    Fantastic food, excellent service, outside under an umbrella on a wonderful sunny day in California. Ambience is friendly and vibrant.

    chimichuri bowl
    Bhumika S.

    Ok so cute lil place w a big menu and plenty of seating (outside and inside). Staff is also super sweet which is great :) Only taking off the 2 stars cause food was pretty meh. Bowl was kinda unflavorful and the chimichurri sauce was just cilantro which was pretty overpowering. Idk if I'd go there again but there other food (burritos and stuff) looked pretty good!

    Great patio to sit at, dine and hangout, anytime of day or night.

    Came here recently with some family. We all ended up ordering the same salad because we enjoy it so much. Hands down such an incredibly great place to eat healthy food. While the food is great, the service and atmosphere is fantastic as well. Everyone loves a great patio to enjoy a good meal and they certainly do not disappoint. To be honest i also love the inside eating too, especially on a cool (or way too warm) day, but that's just me. Try the cheesecake or cookies for dessert, and let then know Frankie recommended it. It might not get you anything free but i truly enjoy supporting local businesses who do it right. Enjoy! - Updating a bit on 10-28-2024‐ Honestly cannot count how many times I've been here, mostly with my wife before marriage, before we had kids, and now that my son is in college we still come. We appreciate many things about Rutabegorz, both here and in Tustin. Hope to continue to enjoy it more through the years.

    The menu is great. Lots of choices

    Their food is absolutely amazing and I love that the restaurant is part of an old home in old town Orange, which gives us so much. One of my favorite dishes is their leek soup. It's so amazing. The next time you're in old town, Orange stop in for some delicious vegan food.

    Cozy area

    I am officially in LOVE with Rutabegorz! The food was AMAZING, all organic ingredients, no GMOs, and the artwork is stunning!!! They have 3d paintings all over the walls! They have a little cozy book nook/table that left my mind blown!!! Very quiet and cozy, and my daughter mentioned "Daddy, this is a plain house!" It looks like a regular home, but a perfect example not to judge a book by its cover. The waitresses and waiters were so friendly and stopped to speak about anything that customers wanted to. A personal comment; the waiter named Chris was very nice and polite. Overall, I am glad I came here and am satisfied with my meal. I guess I need to take a walk to digest this meal, as the portions are HUGE!!! This place is

    Stacey! Stacy! Stacy! We were strolling the historic streets of old town Orange and stumbled into this very hard to pronounce little café .. Stacy, our waitress was so sweet and so helpful. We had so many questions and she answered them all. Most of the items are vegan, but they do have a lot of chicken items. I had a tuna salad on sourdough bread with fresh cantaloupe on the side. " and I mean fresh.!" They have an extensive menu , which made it so hard to decide what to have. We know we're going to be back and I'm going to have their BLT. Stacey was so sweet. It was a hot day and she filled up too water cups to go and said. " you gotta stay hydrated out there." We love this town ... very dog friendly too

    Do they deliver?

    I'm sorry, but we do not offer delivery services.

    Are they offering reservations?

    I believe they do for larger groups, if you call they will just let you know if you'll need one for that time of day.

They have so much variety of wraps, salads, burgers and bowls of high quality ingredients and at incredible prices. Service was super fast we ordered inside at the counter. Got our food super fast even though they had a lot of online orders and people inside. Ambiance was simple and relaxed like a fast food place. You can also order through uber eats, price a little bit higher but still super reasonable. We ordered to eat in the Hawaiian Ahi Poke and to go the Caesar Salad with Chicken. Bowls are big! Everything was delicious!! Wish San Diego had a Green Tomato Grill!!

    My second time in this gem. The entire staff super friendly, helpful. I noticed is very popular…read morewith locals and other business. The first time I order the Persian Bean & Noodles soup and the Mushroom Delight Sandwich. They vegetarian and Vegan options. Second time I order the Ultimate Veggie. The food is absolutely FAN-FREAKING-TASTIC. Really really good. The bread and vegetables are super fresh, nothing fussy about adding extra charge for some pickles or banana peppers in your sandwich, like other places!!! The warm reception by the staff, the very helpful attention and willingness to make accommodation for special dietary restrictions was really nice. Their recommendation was spot on.. definitely I am returning to this place. Feels like you arrived at your nice neighbor kitchen and they make you feel welcome. Hopefully management can expand this to other locations. Don't come too often to Santa Ana, would like to see more of this nice Deli. Well sorry for those other "sandwich" franchise, but you have a REAL contender. Super nice ambiance, every customer looks like they are very satisfied... I am certainly very satisfied. Definitely 5 STARS
