   Amazing food and wine list. Family owned and operated. The chef is also the owner and the maitre d is the husband . Such a cute spot. You can tell the food is made with passion and love. Hidden Gem in OC

   We had a lovely dinner. The food was amazing and our server Juan was excellent and very enthusiastic. We started with the beet salad, then had the octopus, truffle tagliatelle and airline chicken. We finished with the espresso créme brulee. What a pleasant surprise to find this gem of a restaurant! We will definitely go back. I highly recommend this special restaurant.

   This was my second time eating here. Everything was memorable, especially the bread and the asparagus bisque, which I am still thinking about. The menu has some very creative and unusual choices, including an Octopus Al Pastor with avocado foam, pickles, lardon, pineapple relish, and fingerling potatoes. This is the kind of food you take time to savor each bite of. The service is exceptional, we felt special! I look forward to going back.

   This restaurant is a gem! The food is delicious and the service is stellar. This was our second visit, and we were not disappointed. It’s a small restaurant with really good food.

   We were so fortunate to find this amazing restaurant. The welcoming atmosphere and the incredible food will make this my new favorite restaurant! Every dish that our table had was amazing! The flavors were incredible. But honestly, the service and the staff is what makes this restaurant my new favorite!

   Novel reconfiguring of "family style" (shareable plates) dining within a redeveloped space, close to Triangle Square, CM. Service was attentive and the server informative. Offerings arrived promptly and were well prepared. Of special note was the Branzino, black lentils and vegetables, which was appreciated by all.

   Great find in Costa Mesa. Delicious menu cooked to perfection. Beautiful presentation of dishes with very interesting sauces and ingredients. Warm service as if you are in someone’s home. Highly recommended and we are going back soon.
