Restaurants in Aliso Viejo

“The food here was great. I got a bowl with steak, which was very good. Lewis was our server, and he is the best. I highly recommend this place. Would come back.”

“Great food, good service, and an adequate atmosphere. A lot depends on what you're looking for—this is an order-at-the-counter-and-seat-yourself establishment—and, while the menu feels limited , the food is fresh and first rate! Clean and family-friendly, too. (No license for hard liquor, but wine, beer, and sangria are available.)”

“We discovered Webb’s a year ago & have tried just about everything on the menu. The staff is amazing and the food is great. I love how they are adding news items. The new years event was super fun and the special menu for Valentine’s Day was incredible. 10/10 recommend”

“Very very high quality lamb meat. They do not skimp on ingredients. I used to always get my Indian food from Himalayan Taste and I always had bad lamb meat. I talked to the owner and gave them reviews, but alas, nothing worked. I’ve taken my business to this restaurant and all my friends are going to follow suit.
Tasty. Clean. Good petitions. Well deserved five stars.”

“The hostesses were amazing here! even though I was only picking up food to go they made me feel welcomed. they interacted me while I was waiting, which says a lot about creating a welcoming atmosphere.”

“What yummy delicious juicy chicken!”

“Fresh fish expertly prepared by friendly chef with equally cheerful service staff! We will be back”

“They catered our monthly event we call "Together" at Calvary Chapel Pacific Hills last night and all of their food was fabulous! I wish I had known about them for my upcoming Fiesta event in May at my mobile home park. Well I know who will be catering it next year: TB!!!😋🥰😃”

“One of the best newer restaurants in South OC. The restaurant is very pretty, ambiance is great, and the food is very good and also healthy (but still tasty). It's like a California take on middle eastern food. The salmon bowl is great, though the lentil rice flavor has evolved over time and seems a bit less flavorful than early days. Still a great restaurant that is a regular spot for me.”

“I've been coming here since I was a kid and it always satisfies! Today was wonderful. The french crepe was excellent. Honestly a huge highlight was our amazing waiter Cedric, who was an absolute ray of sunshine!! Cedric's enthusiasm really elevated our experience. Always a fan of Original House of Pancakes :)”

“Tasty, delicious food every time. They are consistent. I especially like their house salad with ranch dressing, free pizza bread, garlic bread, chicken parmigiana pasta with meat sauce. These are my faves here. I love their pizza too.”

“Fresh, tasty, great combination of flavors and options on both salads and sammies. The natural sodas are a nice touch. Gotta try a cookie!💛 Staff has been consistently courteous and responsive. I’ve been three times. I CRAVE their salads.”

“Great service, great food!!👏”

“Buen servicio de Alex 👍🏼 y la comida muy rica”

“Had an amazing lunch at this place and would absolutely recommend. The service was amazing and the sushi was some of the freshest and best I've ever had. Definitely recommend for a good sushi craving.”

“A friend recommended this place and we tried it last week. We had couple of their breakfast sandwiches and a few of the pastries and have to say that this place is a Gem. Must try the saffron mini cake. Highly recommend this cafe and most definitely be back soon👍👍”

“Very good coffee above corporate level, coffee institutions.”

“We probably ate here 50 times so far . My wife loves their red curry. I love the crying tiger and their noodles .
The service is pretty good , fast and the restaurant looks very clean . The staff are very friendly.”

“Adamantium Steel Band!! Great Music!!🎉🎉🎉”

“First time here, just stopped by wanting a low carb healthy light meal. Got the salami club chopannini without ranch, nice and tasty! Also service was A+, thanks guys!”

“….Eureka!

That’s what I wanted to say when I discovered the place..Eureka! …From the outside, you’d never guess this place existed. But once I stepped through the front door, I was pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere was captivating, and, believe it or not, they backed it up with great food.

Our server, Carissa, was perfect through our Labor Day lunch!, so I tipped her generously—she earned it.

I kicked off the feast with a Mexican beer called Explorado Lager. I lost count of how many I had, but it was something special—fruity, as my date noted, and I have to agree. It was different, in the best way!

We shared a plate of slow-roasted pork nachos and a plate of wings, they were definitely worth it.
I wrapped things up with the Napa chicken sandwich, which was spot on—the sauce was a perfect hit. Honestly, it felt like I was dining in a four-star restaurant. These folks really know their sauces.

“The gentleman that greeted me at the counter or register was super awesome! Left him a good tip due to the great service. Thank you for the great experience. I’ll be back for sure!”

“This small wine and deli boutique is located in a small strip just behind a gas station. Limited parking but there is handicap parking.They have metal tables outside the door for relaxing and consuming your meal.The door is covered with signage and rules but don't let that deter you from entering the establishment.The inside drink and wine area is clean and well-stocked. The organization of the products was great.  As I walked to the back, to my right was a wine tasting bar and to my left was a pretty nice deli. The young lady at the cash register greeted me upon entering.  When I walked to the back of this quaint deli/wine store I came to a cooler well stocked with local and imported drinks of all kinds. It's not just a wine bar. It's not just a deli. It's an experience.They had many sandwiches to choose from but I chose the sausage breakfast burrito. It was recommended by the clerk that I get some green sauce with it and she was right. The burrito was pretty big and crafted with care. With each bite, I had a taste of the eggs, sausage, cheese, and hashbrowns. Many burritos I encounter are just thrown together and rolled up where you get a different burrito in each bite. You could see the care even in the wrapping and cutting in half for easier consumption.The size of the burrito:The burrito is about as round as a Starbucks Venti cold cup and the length of a Venti Starbucks plastic straw. The breakfast burrito was cut in half for easier consumption.It took about five minutes for the burrito to be ready for me to take it to go. Total was $10.76 with tax as of 1/7/24 and was worth it.It was a lot of fun browsing the cold fridge drinks and entertaining myself with their clever names while I waited for my meal.I definitely recommend this secret wonder if you're ever in the Aliso Viejo, Ca area.”

Ariel gave some of the best customer service I've ever had at a fast food restaurant. Will definitely be back!”

“Some of the best non-authentic Mexican chain restaurants out there. A little more expensive than regular Mexican fast food chains like Del Taco or Taco Bell, but you definitely get what you pay for. Huge portions, I go here instead of Chipotle because they have a lot more options.”

“Food is always good and yummy. Love their sweet tea and kids meals are the best.”
