Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Aliso Viejo / Laguna Niguel

The food was fantastic! The lamb, crème brûlée and Chocolate Noir Cake are absolute must-tries. We had a wonderful time celebrating our anniversary. Everything was lovely, and it made our special occasion even more memorable!

We arrived for our 5 PM reservation and practically had the place to ourselves for the first hour! The ambiance is gorgeous—velvety textures, beautiful wallpaper, and dim lighting create a cozy, sophisticated atmosphere. We shared the grilled artichoke, biscuits, and bruschetta to start, followed by the bolognese, chicken wedge salad, and fried chicken & waffles. The service was impeccable, but the icing on the cake was the incredible live pianist and singer- total Olivia Dean vibes! Beautiful music, intimate atmosphere, and effortlessly elegant surroundings made for a memorable evening. A Laguna Beach gem!

WE have a perfect evening out to eat at Hanna's. Looking for a great steak dinner, cocktails and nice wine. All young and bright eyed staff were all happy, greeting and seemed actually happy to see us there. First time in many years...so no relationships there. Just well trained staff, valuing the experience and well managed. Our server Morgan was simply perfect. On us fast, set the tone with evening specials and recommendations, drinks to us in a minute. She gave us OUR time to chat and settle and not be rushed to the main order, but just an eye glance or her intuition got her to us without pause to top wine, clear plates or get the next question answered. WELL DONE. The food was cooked to perfection and quality fish and steaks. Good portions and sides. Honestly just a great experience. Thank you!

Another fabulous meal at Broadway! Amazing service the absolute best fries as if you’ve been before you know the French fries are bar none the best! It was a special occasion so chef made a special fried chicken (a real favorite) that was so incredibly delicious there aren’t words to describe it. Orgasmic! lol The hanger steak another absolute winner. Perfectly prepared scrumptious! Love the bitter green salad and the brussel sprouts. This meal was truly perfection. In fact the entire evening was perfection. Big shout out to all the incredible people who work there and make your experience rewarding every single time! Still best restaurant in Laguna Beach. Thank you everyone 😊

Dining at Opah Restaurant was wonderful. The staff was freindly, kind and knowledgeable. We felt very comfortable. The service and food were outstanding. The owner came by our table to welcome us, just as he did for all the other guests. The menu was diverse and in selections and price. The atmosphere was relaxing and joyous. I highly recommend Opah Restaurant.
