Hollingshead's Delicatessen

★★★★☆ 4.4 (911) • $$

"It's Sandwich Saturday and I was craving an Italian sandwich super hard! Hollingshead popped up via Yelp and what's super crazy is I knew exactly where that was. I've seen it a lot being in my hometown, but I've only gone past it. This is my first time going inside and having their food! #mindblowingOf course -- out of curiosity -- I asked what their most popular sandwiches were. It was the Great Scott, which I plan to have next time! But back to the main event -- my delicious-ness photos of the Little Italy! It... hit... the... spot!!! It was so good! I wanted extra meat and cheese, thus making it a Double. The mild peppers with the artichokes was perfection! A masterful delicatessen moment for my taste buds! I'm a huge fan of mortadella. This sandwich had the perfect flavor pairing with the zest from the artichokes, pepper, and vinegar. Texture was good as well. The French roll served well with the meats, cheese, and vegetables. Something else bomb about this place is that it's a sports heavy, especially towards Cheeseheads (Green Bay Packers). You can watch the game here and get a beer! There are so many beers to select from. They even have soda pop for those non-drinkers. Hank's is one of the best soda pop companies. Yum! Going back to the Packers -- it is definitely decked out with a lot of green and yellow. It looks cool and has personality. There are Green Bay Packers memorabilia and merch hanging from all corners of the place. It makes sense since the original founders are from Wisconsin!A very cool and unique style the restaurant has is instead of calling out orders with numbers, like most places... they will give you a card of a beverage. Your que to get your order is when they call out your drink name! How different is that!?I do move supporting traditional mom-and-pops. This one was established in 1963! That is unbelievable! Again, I'm born and raised in this area and cannot believe it was my first time today. Better late than never, I guess! Besides, they have one of the best potato chips -- Zapp's Voodoo! The first best chip ever is the purple bag called Hawaiian Kettle Style Potato Chips in Sweet Maui Onion. Parking wise -- I can see that it may become an issue. The strip mall that it's in can get packed due to the number of businesses located there. Next time, I plan to come with my boyfriend. He will get soda pop and ill have a beer while trying the Great Scott!"

Aleppo's Kitchen

"A friend of mine invited me out to lunch and chose this restaurant. It was my first time.This is a Mediterranean restaurant. Since I was a guest, I did not get a chance to take a photo of the menu, hopefully there might be some photos from other yelp reviewers.Isabel, our server explained to me that their specialty are their Mediterranean bowls. They allow you to choose your protein And two sides and two sauces. They also had Mediterranean plates and salads and a variety of soft drinks and other beverages.Isabel was very attentive, and polite. She allowed us time to discuss business when she returned we ordered and within 10 to 15 minutes we had our food.I have visited other Mediterranean restaurants and I would have to say this one ranks as one of the best. What I liked about my bowl was that the rice was fluffy? The chicken was very tasty and tender. The house sauce was smooth and creamy and of course the avocados and beets were a great addition.My host and his colleague had been here before and they rave about how good it is.Along with our bowls, we ordered french fries and pita bread.Although the restaurant appeared to be small in size, it was not too noisy in spite of the fact that they were quite a few guests. As I stated before, I would definitely come back to this with my wife."

Cortina's Orange

★★★★☆ 4.4 (788) • $$

"Yeah, it's a great sandwich.It's been years since I've been to Cortina's. I've only visited the Anaheim location, but Orange is less chaotic and we were feeling like sandwiches today so we went for it.1130 is still a solid time to visit. The food arrived quickly and we were able to find seating without an issue. The sandwiches prices have definitely gone up, but they are pretty large so it you at least get a very full meal out of them. No major complaints from the table. Overall, all the food was enjoyed. I probably have the biggest gripe-I was the only one that got a hot sandwich, the chicken marinara, and my biggest issue is that it was at best lukewarm so the temperature was just not right. Cheese wasn't melted enough. It could've used some extra time warming it up however they do it. This is not the type of sandwich you want to eat at room temperature. It still tasted good and the bread is fantastic.Now that I returned, I want to run through the menu some more and knock out some other items. But let's be honest, the real reason I'll be coming back is because of the black cherry soda, which is delicious. If you've been there, you know. Most of people seem to get it. It's definitely a thing."

Big Rob's Pizzeria

★★★★☆ 4.4 (736) • $$

"Not your average pizza....its better!Service: This spot appears to be family ran, which is always a good sign because you know the pizza is made with love. The gentleman who took my order was very friendly and took my time to answer my questions and give me the detail I was looking for. They were happy to accommodate my request for thin crust, even though it didn't seem to be something they advertise on the menu.Food: We ordered The Works, and it was fantastic. The quality of the ingredients was top notch. The vegetables on the pizza were fresh and the meats actually had taste and were not bland. The cheese was reminiscent of some top quality Wisconsin cheeses I've had on pizzas in the Midwest. The crust was perfectly toasted and the undercarriage perfectly cooked. Not raw, not burnt, baked to have a perfect crunch.Overall: I'd recommend this place if you love supporting local small businesses or if you're just on the hunt for some great tasting pizza. They have many other items on the menu like Calzones, Chicken Parm, etc. I definitely will be back to try it all! You guys just earned a loyal customer. Thank you, Big Robs!"

Deli-Licious

"We had unch there today... omg delicious. Turkey on their 8 inch white roll..they even have alfa sprouts..no one has those anymore on sandwiches. Soooo good. Their crack iced tea. Delish! Service...amazing. Highly recommend. Definitely going back."

Saigon Noodle House

★★★★☆ 4 (867) • $$

"I've been to Saigon Noodle House countless times, and it never disappoints. Without a doubt, this spot offers the best value for Vietnamese food in the area. Their #12 house special combination pho is a must-try--it's huge, with a generous amount of quality beef and perfectly cooked pho noodles. For the price, it's hands down the most satisfying bowl of pho around.Beyond the pho, the menu has other gems. The S5 stir-fry combination is a flavor bomb, packed with a variety of meats and your choice of soft or crispy noodles. It's always a crowd-pleaser. The rice platters and vermicelli dishes are consistently great as well; you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu.The wait can get a bit long during peak hours, but that just speaks to how popular the place is. Service is usually quick and efficient, though, so you won't be waiting long once seated. This is one of those spots we'll keep coming back to!"

Brea's Best Burgers

★★★★☆ 3.8 (917) • $$

"I thought I wrote a review for them guess not! I love this place it's so close by, they are fast and they have delicious food. The burgers are amazing the sandwiches are delicious. The french fries are crunchy and they give you a lot of food for the price. It's always busy the parking lot is small but still easy to find parking. Really nice people working there. They always have a line and it's a really cute little place to get some food! Thank you for delicious food and fantastic service. Come here often cause it's so convenient and easy and fast.Have a beautiful day :)Aloha"

Kei Coffee House

★★★★☆ 4.1 (765) • $$

"Hands down to another Kei concept Pastries are delicious, beef pate was yummy, the pastry was very flaky if you don't mind the mess. The breakfast burritos were loaded with eggs, sausages and the beacon crunch, great texture. Service - fast food pace. Order and wait Ambiance - spacious Filled to youngsters with their laptops"Remote@ works."

RIBBRO BBQ

★★★★★ 4.5 (617) • $$

"For the price and for the quality of the food, this establishment has a high value. The ribs were succulent, the brisket was fall apart, and the sides and sauces you can tell we're homemade. Unfortunately, for today, I'm lazy and had to order to go but for sure next time I'm gonna go in and eat and enjoy myself in this delicious barbecue. Thank you RibBro for bringing good humble barbecue to Orange County."

Mamón

★★★★★ 4.6 (590) • $$

"Best sandwiches in south OC!! With a Latin American twist. We ordered the Just the Tip mushroom sandwich and the Choriopan (Argentinian sausage). They both came on a delicious Franchese bread and had Serrano aioli on the side. The flavors were mind blowing and service was quick and friendly. They are also able to accommodate vegetarians and make substitutions which is really nice."

Ricci's Italian Restaurant

★★★★☆ 4.3 (657) • $$

"Best thing about this place is the karaoke on Saturday! Some people can sing, some can't, but we all have a good time. The sound and mics are nice. Food is pretty good too. Got some great service from the wait staff. But wait until you meet their karaoke jockey Koach! He had the room going!"

Piadina - Tustin

★★★★☆ 4.2 (671) • $$

"Piadina is great if you're looking for a quick bite and fresh bread. The bread is made fresh, flaky and light, and you can choose the different fillings based on pre-set items. I got the California which had turkey, veggies, and avocado. The fillings are pretty standard compared to a normal deli. So the main standout is really the bread. Other than that it's clean and has plenty of seating. There's plenty of parking and the service was quick and efficient. So it's a solid place to grab a bite and chill out."

Hambone's BBQ Smokehouse

★★★★☆ 3.7 (843) • $$

"Best bbq in town catering is great too. I bought it for my husband's birthday it's pricey but worth it he loves the greens from there every thing is tasty"

Flippoly

★★★★☆ 4.1 (676) • $$

"Got the Original Egg Sando ($8) and the Injeolmi Latte ($6) and both were super good!For $8 the sandwich is super filling! The egg is fluffy on a white milk bread, with cheese and sweet mayo! I thought it was super tasty! There's also a ton of different options like egg sando with bulgolgi, hash brown, kimchi, etc...The Injeolmi Latte was super good! That roasted soybean flavor and dusting is so addicting! Overall I had no complaints and everything was good!"

"Cute spot right across the street from Blizzard HQ.There's some interesting Blizzard related artwork and collectibles from Warcraft, StarCraft, and Diablo in the store.There are menues for breakfast, sandwiches, burgers and vegetarian.The vegetarian menu includes a grilled cheese, a caprese, a veggie melt and a veggie burger.I had the toasted turkey pesto S'wich and I'm already dreaming of when I can come back Great spot if your in the area for breakfast or lunch."

Esther's Place

★★★★★ 4.7 (465) • $

"I work at a school in Westminster, and I am always looking for different local businesses to try. When lunchtime approaches, my coworker and I are often stumped when deciding what to try. She mentioned Esther's Place as she had eaten there a few times with another colleague. I am always up for a good sandwich, so we agreed on this restaurant for lunch.My coworker picked up the food and brought it back. She mentioned to the owner that I had not yet eaten at this place. The owner was so sweet and gave a complimentary cup of soup since I was a brand new customer. Gotta love small businesses who show appreciation for new patrons!I had the chicken salad on wheat bread, and a vegetable soup which was perfectly hot on this cool, crispy day. The vegetable soup was flavorful and I did not feel like I was missing a protein. It had potatoes, celery, and carrots, perfectly cooked. Broth was tasty, would definitely purchase this in the future. The chicken salad was fresh and light, not lost in mayonnaise. The bread was fresh as well, and the vegetables offered a nice crunch to the sandwich.Esther's Place uses quality ingredients to deliver a quality dining experience. Will definitely be adding this spot to our lunchtime rotation. Thank you!"

Tommy Pastrami New York Delicatessen

★★★★☆ 4.2 (573) • $$

"Great place for Pastrami and other deli sandwiches. I went during a busy weekday lunch rush. The line moved quickly and my food came out much quicker than I expected. There is seating inside and a large area outside. Pastrami was very good and the double baked rye was excellent! The side potato salad I ordered was tasty. I only ordered a half and that was plenty! I was told their brisket is definitely a sandwich to order next visit.Plenty of parking. Located in a business park with a large lot.Definitely coming back! Great place!"

Lil' Pickle USA

★★★★☆ 4.1 (598) • $$

"I have ordered from here about 20+ times. My go to is the forty9er with chopped habaneros!!! I always call in my order and by the time I get there it's always ready. They have a good selection of sides as well to along with the sandwiches. Love the interior as it reminds me of the 90s golf scene. Don't forget to get your frequent flyer stamp card. I have had at least 4 free sandwiches thanks to this stamp card."

Board & Brew - Huntington Beach

★★★★★ 4.5 (461) • $$

"I always love a good sandwich, but board and brews is next level good. I usually get the turkey deluxe which is my go to. I've been to a few other locations as well, but this one is special. The past few times I have visited, I am always greeted by the sweetest lady named TJ. She doesn't just treat you like a customer, but she treats you kind of like a close friend. It's her service and kindness that makes this location stand out from the rest. I can't wait to come back soon."

★★★★☆ 4.4 (478) • $$

"The best small sandwich shop with the hugest BLT and turkey sandwiches. They don't skimp! Also great daily soups and cookies!"

Habit Burger & Grill

★★★★☆ 3.7 (658) • $$

"Yesenia I think this is her name. Yesterday, I went to get a salad and a cookies and cream shake. When I received the shake, it was not full and there was no whip cream. I suppose it was the manager or lead who gave it to me. Yesenia apologized and filled the shake to the appropriate level, adding whip cream and cookie crumbs. I wish I had taken pictures of it before and after! Her customer service is exceptional! That lead or manager should take some notes and learn how to properly make a shake! The only reason I gave them 5 stars is because of this wonderful employee!!P.S. if I misspelled your name I do apologize."

Holdaak Fried Chicken

★★★★☆ 4.3 (476) • $$

"A friend insisted that we try this little chicken restaurant, which is tucked away in a strip mall in Orange. We went for their Tuesday chicken sandwich deal. $4.99 for one of the best and juiciest chicken sandwiches I've ever had! I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves a good chicken sandwich."

"Good pizza, fair prices. I accidentally ordered the xl pizza based on price alone. When I showed up and saw how big it was, I was in shock. $25 for a huge pepperoni pizza is an amazing deal. The staff were super friendly! Highly recommend this pizza place!"

"First timers for brunch today, and my husband and I were blown away. Jesus took the time to give us amazing service, suggested great items, and never missed a step to make us feel welcomed. I had the biscuits & gravy, holy moly it was the BEST meal I have ever had. I would eat that gravy off anything...My husband had pork verde eggs benedict and he loved it. Everything was incredible, we can't wait to go back! Thank you Jesus!!"

Earl of Sandwich

★★★★☆ 4.1 (517) • $$

"On our first time here my husband and I ordered the prime rib and downtown burger. My husband enjoyed the prime rib, however the mashed potatoes were very plain and 0 flavor. My burger was great and I enjoyed the french fries. The second time here we ordered a caesar salad and chicken fettuccine alfredo. The salad was just alright, the chicken alfredo was truly terrible. It had a peanut butter flavor and a rubbery texture. I asked the server to take it back and got spaghetti and meatballs. It was very bland and cold. I was disappointed by this point and we ended up leaving. The table behind us also had a terrible experience, they ended up calling the manager and in their words, "let you [manager] know this was disappointing.""

Louie’s On Main

★★★★☆ 4.3 (467) • $$

"Perfect spot to grab some food some beer and just have a good time.We were looking for a spot to grab some food and have some drinks before a concert so we decided to check this place out and I'm glad we did. Now we parked a few blocks down closer to the venue of the concert but it looks like there is plenty of parking out front or even parking a few blocks down like we did is not bad at all.When we walked in there were some empty tables so we just grabbed one and waited for the server. There was a QR codes on the tables for the menu or you could wait to get one from the server. Although it was getting pretty busy a server came to us in less than 5 minutes which was not too bad of a wait as it looked like she was the only one taking care of our section.I tried a few beers on tap. I had the compadre Mexican Lager and the Bikini Blonde. They had about 30 beers on tap so there will be something for everyone. For food I ended up getting the steak sandwich. It's listed as market price but they have a chalk board that has the price of the day so you don't need to feel shy about asking or anything. This day it was $23. I'm pretty simple guy so I asked what comes on the sandwich and they said nothing just the meat and bun. Shocking as usually it has lettuce or tomatoes at least but figure it must be good And it sure was. It was super delicious and didn't need anything else. They asked how I wanted it cooked and I said medium, and it was cooked to perfection. The meat was not hard at all and was so easy to eat. This isn't some cheap meat that you may be getting at your local burger spot or something. It was honestly one of the best steak sandwiches I've ever had. Even for the price I've had some that were a little bit more and were not as good. I would come back just for this. My wife had the B.L.A.T. I'm not a fan of avocado so I'm not going to review this but my wife said it was really good and she finished all her sandwich so she sure loved it. She also got the Garlic fries and they were so good!The serve came a few times basically to get refills on our drinks and that's all we could ask for. It's a busy spot so don't expect them to come every 5 minutes but I had no issues with the service at all.If you are In the area I would highly recommend you come to check this place out. Even if you are not close I would still recommend you come check this place out. We are not super close to here and we are already planning out our next trip. For me this is a must try place."

PS great place to catch a sporting event on tv"

Joe's Deli & Gourmet Sandwiches

★★★★★ 4.6 (387) • $

"I could go to Joe's every single day if I lived closer. This was my regular lunch haunt when I worked in the area! Great sandwiches and such incredibly reasonable prices--it was a no brainer. Joe and his associate Amanda are also so kind and personable (the kind of folks who care and remember your order)!They'll get you in and out and take phone orders as well if you're strapped for time. I still drive out of my way on my days off for a sandwich here. As a mom and pop joint, the simplicity of Joe's shop with indoor seating (as well as an outdoor table) makes it nostalgic and comforting. Unfortunately, there's not many places like Joe's anymore."

Egg N Bird

★★★★☆ 4.1 (487) • $$

"You can taste the quality of food here. Clean, and the Service is fast. Chicken is tender, flavorful, and not spongy like most sandwich places.Rice is done well, Slaw is crunchy and tangyThe crack sauce pairs perfectly with whatever you order."

Aloha Grill

★★★★☆ 3.5 (664) • $$

"5 stars for nostalgia. I just had to do it. All you people that know what I'm talking about, just go back. Clearly I don't live in HB anymore, but just said why not. Rainbow drink will do it. The bartender was super cool, vibe still there. Don't be scared, live it up. Ps. I didn't try the food."

Carrot & Daikon Banh Mi - Bolsa

★★★★☆ 4.4 (418) • $

"I had to try what was dubbed "OC's best banh mi" on various internet posts. I am usually a THH loyalist as it is close to my house, but I need to give Carrot and Daikon its well-deserved flowers. The baguettes are large, soft, and crunchy. The meats are savory and addicting. The pickled vegetables offer the perfect refreshing note. I highly recommend the #6 (Crispy Pork Belly) and the #14 (Lemongrass Beef). I gave the #15 (Lomo Saltado) a try as well, but I think the former options are tastier. #15 could use a little more sauce, it was a little drier than the others. Anyways, highly recommend. These sandwiches will fill you up quickly."

The Cheese Shop at The Mix

★★★★☆ 4.3 (433) • $$

"I stopped in to the Cheese Shop to grab a bite for lunch. After perusing the menu, I ordered a Caprese Panini (Pesto, Mozzarella, and marianted tomatoes on warm, fresh bread). The sandwich was delicious and really satisfied my hunger :-)Tip: The Cheese Shop is tucked away in a corner of the OC Mix, which contains quite a number of small shops and restaurantsOver and above my sandwich, I tried their salted chocolate chip cookies and found them to be exceptional as well. I won't hesitate to return - highly recommended!"

Galley Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.1 (476) • $$

"Galley Cafe is another bfast & lunch institution in Newport Beach. It has been in biz since 1957, and serves hearty bfasts and good chili. In addition, one of their specialties is homemade applesauce.I was pretty hungry after golf, so I ordered the meatlovers omelette. It has bacon, ham, sausage & cheese, and it is massive. I ordered applesauce as my side. The omelette was outstanding. It was massive, and packed with meat. In addition, the applesauce was nice & smooth vs the crap we get at the store.Regarding the ambiance, its small & quaint with some counter seats and a few tables. I came on a weekday around 1 pm, and it was busy. We were lucky to get a table for 3. This place must be packed in the morning and on weekends. The service was friendly & warm, just what you would expect from a family owned place that has been open nearly 50 years.If I lived in NB, I would definitely be a regular here. I will solely have to settle for the Galley being on our rotation after golf."
