Best Restaurants for Local Ingredients in Costa Mesa

It was great, came here for my birthday, not a lot of items on the menu but what they do have is awesome. A lot of unique flavors. Would go back

I love this restaurant. I come here often. Recently the primary travel service has been disappointing .

I live in Irvine, where we have two Puesto locations, but we always choose to come to this one for the best experience. The quality and freshness of the food were outstanding, and the timing between each dish was perfectly paced. The restaurant is very clean, with a great ambiance, and the entire staff does an excellent job of making you feel welcome. From start to finish, everything was spot on, and we will definitely be returning!

We had an excellent dining experience at the Pelican Grill not only is it in a beautiful location and the service from Luis was top-notch, but the food was incredible. We had the tableside risotto in the Parmesan wheel and it was an amazing experience. I would recommend this place to any locals or out-of-town guests. Highly recommend!!

Amazing creative food! Great service (Sue is awesome). Tangerine adds an automatic 18% gratuity which in our case was definitely justified because our server was great and I even added extra tip but gratuity should be left to the diners’ discretion based on their experiences with the server. Also the hotel have the restaurant validate parking for only two hrs which is inadequate between finding parking, walking in, walking out, finding the car, reaching the exit, and a leisure holiday meal. Should be able to get validation for three hours at least. Otherwise the food is delicious and creative. The salads are absolutely amazing. Our second Christmas there and will be back
