The tomato spaghetti hit hard. Sauce was rich, not too sweet, and the pasta had that perfect bite. Calzone frita was crispy outside, molten inside. Portions are big for what you pay. Solid spot in Santa Ana, no complaints about the food.

The ceviche was fresh, really lime-y and bright. Sat outside, no rush at all. Pretty good spot for a casual lunch. Just wish the portions were a bit bigger for the price. But decent overall.

The hot pot is what brought us in and honestly it hit the spot. Broth was rich, ingredients tasted fresh. Portions are big, we ordered too much. Only thing, our server didn&#39;t know the menu super well, took a bit to get answers. But the food made up for it. Solid spot if you&#39;re craving hot pot.

The place looks nice and staff were friendly enough. Flavors came off a bit muted for me, but the fruit drinks were spot on. Pretty good overall for a casual stop.

The Chilean tres leches here is so good&mdash;super moist and not too sweet. Big slice too, perfect for sharing with friends. Definitely coming back for this one 😋

Nice spot, food came out quick and hot. Got the pad thai, decent flavor though could use a bit more salt. Service was friendly and fast. Good for a quick lunch break.

Easy to get to, which is always a win. The fruity dipping sauce with the apps was so good, kinda tasted like pineapple? We just grabbed beers and snacked, perfect for hanging out with friends. Place was chill enough to actually talk. Would go back just for that sauce honestly.

Bread was solid, staff knew their stuff. Explained the different ones without rushing us. Asked for extra butter, no problem. 👍

The panini was solid and the coffee hit the spot. Place has a chill vibe, quiet enough to actually relax. Good spot to escape the busier streets for a bit.

The carne y pollo platter hit right. Good mix of flavors, sides were solid too. Didn&rsquo;t have to wait long for it either.

The carrot cake really stood out to me. I&#39;m not big on desserts, but this one was super moist and flavorful. You can tell they actually put effort into making it.

Came for dinner and honestly the place is way bigger inside than it looks from the street. Chicken cordon bleu was solid, super juicy. Good spot if you&#39;re out with friends 👍

This place offers a nice selection of wines and the food is excellent. Even when the restaurant is busy, the service remains quick.
