Cheese pizza
Finni U.

I was greeted as I walked in and it's a cute little spot. I came for the lunch special and I was so happy I did. Pizza is amazing, crust was perfect and sauce to cheese ratio was on point. I will definitely be back.

Overall good experience. Called at first and was put on hold for 10 minutes; called from another phone while on hold and got thru. Weird. The pizzas were flavorful and we got a good deal.

It is kid-friendly, which I loved, but feels sort of like a dive bar at the same time. It was really the best of both worlds.

Pretty great spot and we'll definitely be back.

On a positive note the service and staff couldn't have been nicer! The pizza was very good but too thick and oily for my taste. The pizza sauce was the best. If offered on thin crust, I would be a big fan! On a not so positive note, this might be the loudest restaurant I have ever been to. The music was extremely loud even on the outside patio making conversation very difficult. There were lots of families and groups with quite a few kids. It very kid friendly which is great for families but again very loud. Many kids running through, playing activity, and being quite loud. If you want good authentic Detroit pizza and a relaxing night night, you might want to order to go.

Parlor has been on my San Clemente list for 2 years. And now that we've lived here for 4 1/2 months…read morewe were due for a visit. We picked my birthday of all nights! Our waitress name was Claire and we hit the jackpot. So personable, friendly and made the night super special. We also met the manager/operator Joe. He made us feel like we were weekly locals and welcomed us with open arms! We want to come back ASAP just to see Claire and Joe again! Special people. The food, OMG this place is such a gem. We started with the Herloom Tomato Burrata appetizer which was very good. This fresh tomatoes (which needed a pinch more of some crunchy sea salt) with a light pesto, micro greens and burrata. Perfect combo eating bites with the grilled sourdough they bring along side. If you have Claire she'll bring you fresh butter and hot honey. Pro tip!!! This combo is undefeatable. And the wings. They are all half flats, extra crispy in a spicy and sweet sauce. Very very yummy. That blue cheese needs a little thickening but besides that, FIRE! Next we got the Organic Arugula salad with hazelnuts, shaved pecorino and mint. Damn this salad was sleeper hit. Eat it with your pizza, the richness needs something to cut through it, this salad! We got the wild mushroom Pizza which Claire recommended, which ABSOLUTELY blew me away. So perfect crispy yet perfectly chewy at the same time. I think this is my new fav pizza in all of OC. Lucky me I live 1.7 miles away. OMG ya'll this pizza is worth a 2 hour drive to get here! To end the meal for my birthday they surprised us with a Panna Cotta. Beautiful like a perfect creme bruele in a latte cup topped with a nut sort of crumble and a mint leaf. PERFECT ending to an absolutely perfect meal. Thank you Parlor for making my 48th birthday one to remember. We cannot wait to come back soon.

Let me start off by saying that I am a foodie and when I post about a restaurant, it is 90% about…read morethe food, but I will preface this review with praising the Staff and the venue. Beautiful venue, very friendly Staff. Started off with the charred garlic bread, which was delicious My husband got his chicken Alfredo and I got my Caesar salad with shrimp. His pasta meal was delivered before my salad was prepared and it was barely warm so he asked for it to be heated up. To their credit they remade it but even then it was sooooo average that he joked to me that a frozen Marie calendars old have been better Now to MY Salad I have eaten countless Caesar salads in my life and I am a seafood superfan This was my entree. I expected it to at least be delicious. It was not delicious. When I ordered my salad I noticed the menu said that the salad included anchovies so I asked for a few extra anchovies be thrown on Salad arrived.... NO ANCHOVIES- NONE The wait person even joked with me that most people ask for NO anchovies and he loved that I wanted extra The final blow I paid more to have shrimp put on my salad. There was a choice of chicken steak or shrimp. They were clearly large shrimp/prawns I am a seafood lover, and I knew my first bite in that something was off Immediate ammonia, smell and taste That was it. I was done. Overall- great venue and wait staff but TERRIBLE food

As a family, we wanted to have lunch at one of her favorite places and spend some time remembering and celebrating her. I've waited a while before posting this review because I wanted to be fair and separate the emotions surrounding our visit from the actual experience. The first day we stopped in, the drink machine was being replaced and the restaurant wasn't open. That was completely understandable. What was disappointing was the attitude we received from the young staff when we simply asked when they expected to reopen. We got the typical "I don't know" response, and when we tried asking a couple of follow-up questions for clarification, they seemed annoyed and really weren't interested in helping. We aren't from the area and had specifically made the trip over because of what this place meant to my mom. We figured the first experience was just an off moment, so we came back the next day when they were open. Unfortunately, the same general attitude from the young staff carried over and really took away from the experience. The food itself wasn't the problem--it was the lack of friendliness, hospitality, and basic customer service. Of course, they had no way of knowing why we were there, and we certainly didn't expect or feel the need to explain that we had just buried our mom. But that's also the point: you never really know why someone has walked through your door or what that visit might mean to them. I wish our experience had been different, especially because Cosentino's held such good memories for our family and for my mom. Unfortunately, this visit didn't live up to those memories. Food is good.....

Get to the store, Ella greets us and is tremendously helpful throughout the whole evening! We didn't really interact with any other staff members but Ella is a fantastic person to have on the team!

Gosh. Everything tasted so fresh, and was served quickly. Even the salad was good (I had a few bites but I'm not much of salad guy, this salad could change my mind!) A mishap with a beverage was quickly cleaned up and a replacement arrived instantaneously. It was a great meal with great service. We will be back! Thanks Ella! And thanks to the whole team!

My friend and I were at Laguna beach and decided to treat ourselves for lunch on a Sunday afternoon. I was afraid we wouldn't get seated because we walked in but I think we got there right before rush hour around 4 pm so we only waited 5 min to be seated. The whole restaurant is outside with tables under lemon trees and twinkly lights which was beautiful. Definitely very picturesque. We ordered one of everything. We tried the non alcoholic spritz that was refreshing. We also got a salad that was beyond good! A nice a refreshing appetizer. For pizzas we decided to try both a round pizza and square one. The potato Bianca came with burning rosemary on top that added to the fragrance and taste of the pizza. However, my favorite of the night was the sweet and spicy. I am personally not a big fan of thick crust pizza, but this dough was so good and crunchy! I ordered a side of ranch (extra) to dip my crust in. 11/10

They create amazing combinations not found elsewhere. There are two basic styles (round or square deep dish). Their sauce and toppings are finger-licking good. We ordered the Dante made with Provolone and Mozzarella cheeses, topped with chicken sausage and basil. The crust is light, airy, bubbly and lightly charred! We also had the Spagnola Salad with Pear slices, Almonds, Manchego cheese and Quince dressing. I loved it so much! I got full after one slice of pizza, I am such a wimp, my eyes wanted another slice!!! But, we had leftovers, which turned our lunch into dinner later that evening.
