Also, to the chefs who put "extra love, time and dedication" into those pies... thank you! I am so appreciative. Back story, they sold out but made extra ones special for me to pick up at the end of the day yesterday. The lemon filing was absolutely delicious and the meringue was extra fluffy, like eating a cloud. You saved Thanksgiving, period

This is one of my sister in law's favorite bars in Newport, so we came in here while we were in…read moretown on vacation. We came relatively early on a Saturday, totally forgetting it was St. Patrick's Day weekend and this place would be poppin (which it definitely was as the day carried on). We were seated right away for breakfast. On weekends, they don't start serving lunch till 11:45am, but we got to enjoy their breakfast. I didn't even realize they serve food. We were seated in the upstairs area which was pretty awesome because you got more of a view of the ocean! It was awesome. The guy that seated us was one of the brothers that works there and he was so nice! He told us to let him know when we were ready to leave because it gets crazy and people try to steal tables hahah. He even tried to get us to stay later and offered to buy us all a shot if we did, which of course, my family never says no to, so they all got to enjoy that haha. He was fantastic! Our server was also amazing though I didn't get her name. The staff here really is outstanding! To eat, I ordered the chocolate chip pancakes and a side of their fruit bowl. It was all really good. The food came out pretty quick which was great. My family all enjoyed their HUGE beers and mimosas. But really, the drinks look like they could be a bowl of soup haha. We loved it here and I'd definitely come back. Once the afternoon hit, they turned the music up for the St. Patrick's Day crowd. It was definitely a fun atmosphere!

I like bar food and sports, so I went to Mutt Lynch's about twice in one week since hockey playoffs…read moreare this time of year. Their food isn't too bad especially if you want to watch sports, enjoy greasy food with a friend, or need a quick bite after a beach day. I think kids are allowed until a certain time (but I'm not sure when) cos once the sun sets, they have a bouncer checking IDs. Lots of seating available. Service is ok. When you get inside, you can pick any table of your choosing and your server will find you. Also, the restrooms are clean! First time I came here, I tried the lemon pepper pterodactyl wings and sweet potato fries. The wings were kinda bland and needed ranch for flavor. The sweet potato fries were pretty greasy but went great with a beer. I've also tried their California Dreamin' burger with garlic fries. This burger was so yummy and filling!! The bun is like a grilled cheese and the toppings go so well together. The garlic fries were meh.

Excellent breakfast spot in Costa Mesa…read more We stopped by this morning around 9:45 am - parking was tight but we found a spot, and there was a 30 minute wait so we sat on the patio and ordered our food and drinks. My matcha latte was excellent, and the Hot Chick Benedict (a new addition to the menu) was tasty and filling. My friends enjoyed their food too. Bill for 5 people (before tax and tip) was $110. Happy to return.

What I Love: * Unique Flavors: The food tastes great and they have some really unique touches. I love that they serve raspberry jam with their toast--it's a nice change from the standard grape or strawberry. * Homemade Quality: It's really cool that they do their own house-made potatoes and even their own homemade ketchup. You can tell they put effort into the details. The Drawbacks: * Pricing & Fees: I'd give this 4.5 stars if I could, but I'm sticking with 4 because it's definitely on the pricey side. What really bugs me is seeing a mandatory tip/service charge for certain group sizes on the receipt. Between the expensive menu and the fact that they are constantly busy with plenty of business, it feels like price gouging. * Parking: The parking lot is very small, so be prepared for a bit of a struggle to find a spot, especially since they are always packed. Final Thoughts: The food and unique house-made items keep me coming back, but be prepared for a high bill and a tight parking situation.

We came here for Mother's Day brunch expecting a nice experience, especially considering how…read morepopular this place is, but unfortunately it did not live up to the hype or the price point. For 3 people, the bill came out to almost $200, which would've been understandable if the food quality matched the cost -- but it really didn't. I ordered the steak medium rare, but it came out closer to medium and was very dry. On top of that, the kitchen absolutely overloaded it with garlic to the point where it completely overpowered the flavor of the meat. The potatoes on the side were also disappointing -- burnt, hard, and packed with way too much rosemary. All that disappointment for $55 dish! The atmosphere was busy and energetic for Mother's Day, which we expected, but the food itself felt rushed and inconsistent. For the prices they charge, I honestly expected much better execution and quality control. Overall, not the experience we hoped for, especially for a special occasion brunch.

Haute Cakes Caffe might have my favorite pancakes ever…read more This is one of my go to spots for brunch, especially for celebration weekends like birthdays. It just feels like the right kind of place for it. The pancakes are the highlight, soft, flavorful, and consistently great every time I come.

These are so light and fluffy, and you can really taste the orange flavor as you can see there is orange zest in the pancakes. Personally, 2 pancakes is enough for me, but if you're hungry or want to share these with someone, I'd get the 4 pancakes stack. I'll be back next time I'm in town.

Absolutely delicious--hands down some of the best kabobs I've had in a long time. The chicken kabob…read morewas incredibly tender and packed with flavor, basted in a butter glaze that elevates the standard grilled chicken. It's clearly marinated with care and grilled to juicy perfection. Every bite was moist, aromatic, and beautifully seasoned all the way through. The beef kabob was just as impressive--rich, juicy, and melt-in-your-mouth tender with that perfect char from the grill. You could really taste the quality of the meat and the balance of spices without anything being overpowering. The saffron rice was fluffy and aromatic. It also comes with a mixed salad. Not the usual balsamic dressing but a creamy herb infused dressing coating every leaf. Together, these kabobs were a knockout: bold flavors, perfect texture, and cooked exactly right. If you're looking for kabobs that are juicy, flavorful, and truly satisfying, this is the place. I'd come back for these alone. I forgot to mention they are dog friendly on the patio. DJ music on Saturday nights and fire tables with couches.

Later, when checking our bank transaction, we discovered the charge had been changed to $149.90 after we left without authorization or knowledge! We never authorized a higher total, and this was extremely concerning to see afterward on our banking statement. It gave the impression that the amount may have been altered after payment was completed. We were sitting outside, if I remember correctly the server's name is Mary. This completely damaged our trust in the billing process. We recommend customers carefully review their posted transactions after dining here.

Right on 17th, it's both close to the beach, and other shops in the area! I love coming here early and getting my breakfast fix, and you'll see why, especially after seeing what I got. Walking in, you'll see some super nice and bubbly decor, with white walls, color block designs, and fun little set pieces everywhere. We got sat down, and took a gander at this impressive and extensive menu. I already knew what I wanted, because I always get the same thing, but we had to get something new too, of course! I've never had shakshuka, so that's what we went with! Look at this deep red tomato sauce and those perfect eggs. The dip-ability is absolutely peak, and that bread is perfectly warm and toasty. Sweet and acidic tomatoes, herbaceous oils, and a wonderfully eggy bite tie this dish together and make it delicious! And, of course, my standard, the breakfast bowl: this one being the Gold Digga. I opted for a potato wedge and arugula base, but it comes with hollandaise, poached eggs, cheese curds, and more! It's a breakfast poutine! Can you believe it? Conceptually, I can't lie, it's incredible, and it's executed very VERY well. Well-seasoned fries, peppery arugula, rich hollandaise and curds, and bangin pork! What an insane item to order! And it comes out like this every time! EVERY TIME! Gahhh, I could go on, but the bowl speaks for itself.

A little weird to have 2 pieces of spinach as a garnish. Never seen that before. Potatoes were really good. Can't go wrong with those. Short Rib bowl: 8/10 everything in that bowl were amazing together. Banana Cream Pie French Toast: 4/10 this was a miss for me. Nothing amazing about it. The custard part was off for me. Maybe if it was more of a banana pudding, it would be better with the cream. Didn't really taste like a banana cream pie. Green Machine: 10/10! So good and refreshing Chocolate Milk: needed more chocolate. They gave us a cup with it 1/4 filled because they ran out of milk since it was so busy and never came back with more. I didn't want to bother them and ask them about it, but checked the bill and they only charged us half for it... so we just paid for it and left it as is.
