Got a chance to tour this space today and it is incredible. They have over 150 small businesses licensed to operate in their space, from more permanent clients with dine-in options, to services that exclusively cater off-site. All of the kitchens and offices are available to rent for as short or long as you like, and they also have spaces to host classes and events! Thomas and the team have an incredibly diverse group of restaurants incubating in the space and the food we got to sample was especially delicious. Love the idea of this space making professional kitchens more accessible, and the way they connect with the community as well. Excited to try more of their offerings soon!

It has the ghost kitchen concept. They have about 2 or 3 tables outside but that's it for dining. Most of the "restaurants" you order online and pick up or they bring it to your car. I did the Kokonut and a boba tea. Both were great flavors, tastes and so refreshing during the heat. Plenty of parking in the area. It looks like an office building, but once you enter, you have many restaurant stations.

Ordered the Cali Cruisin' Burger. At only $12.95, you get 100% Angus Beef patty, onions and tomato, lettuce, bacon and pepper jack cheese. Ordered mine with regular fries. Drank an Izze - sparkling clementine flavor.I came here with no expectations - and WOW I was blown away by the amazing flavors of this burger! Honestly, the BEST tasting burger I've had in 2020! I would price this burger at $20+ based on the taste and high quality of the product! Will return for sure to try another item on their menu!

Kitchen space that's available. There are many appliances and enough space to mass produce food.

This business provides commercial kitchen space for food businesses. They are open 24/7 in what I would consider a safe, industrial area. It has an amazing array of kitchens from prep tables to fully equipped spaces. Our group was hosting a fundraiser tea for a local nonprofit. Per the OC Health Inspector, we needed to prepare the food in a commercial kitchen. The Hood worked with us to get the proper documentation since we were not a food business. The price was very reasonable, and the space was excellent.

So.... I found this place in costa Mesa on my way to GOOGLE FIBER Its super cute inside and the food was pretty good. I ordered the mahi katsu and the teriyaki beef. I also bought some rice crispy treats that were pretty good as well. The only reason why I didnt give it 4 stars was because the amount of food you get for the price wasnt up to par. There are other Hawaiian food places who give you big food and that's what I was expecting. Anywho. if I'm ever out on the area again I may stop buy!. #imout

Unfortunately the staff/ownership could care less about you and your business. It's too bad especially during such a time.

I had the chance to visit The Hood Kitchen this week and was really impressed with everything they offer. I got a tour and saw the variety of clients they have. There are so many options, from desserts to lunch spots! The kitchen is spacious and well-equipped, with 6 individual kitchen spaces, prep tables, and plenty of storage options. It's an amazing space for anyone looking to cook professionally or host classes and events. The staff was incredibly kind and helpful, making the whole experience even better. I'm excited to go back and try some food from one of their clients, Tacos La Piña. Highly recommend checking it out, whether you're looking to rent space for yourself or simply want to try some of their clients' offerings.
