Delicious bagels!…read more Whole staff and environment feels friendly with great vibes! As soon as I walked into the store, a staff member handed menus out and informed us about the new items. It's great when a store knows how to perform and operate with passion! The bagels are made fresh, and there's a side where you can see them being made by hand! I ordered The Dodger, a salmon topped bagel with pickled onions, dill, and capers, and it was yummy, healthy, and clean. Wait time was pretty fast after ordering. There was a bit of a line on a Friday around brunch time, but my to-go order took less than 10 minutes to be ready. There is some indoor and outdoor patio seating too.

When I visited around 1pm on a Sunday, they only had 3 options left: Plain, Everything, and Sesame bagels. I went with The Old Smokey on an Everything bagel, and it was phenomenal! The bagel itself was perfectly crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside. It was also loaded with toppings that tasted fresh and were a great flavor combination. They had a counter with seating for eating inside, and a large patio for outdoor dining. I really enjoyed the space and all my interactions with employees. They are also part of a shopping center, so there is a large parking lot. Prices were a little high, but worth it in my opinion! I'll be back to try an open face next time.

Best Bagel in Town! Hands Down! The texture honestly…read moresurprised me, it really reminds me of NYC bagels. It's not as fluffy, but it's perfectly chewy, and the ingredients inside taste so fresh. My favorite part? You can grab fresh bagels to go along with your favorite cream cheese! The workers even handed me a bagel fresh out of the batch, you just have to ask. Best service ever! It's super kid-friendly with tons of seating both inside and outside. I came on a Saturday at 10:45 AM and got through the line pretty quickly. The bagel sandwiches are amazing, if you're a cream cheese lover, you can add it right into your sandwich. I loved mine with egg and cheese, and I can't wait to come back!

BUT I would suggest to get the bagels home and prepare the meal yourself. Because I forgot to ask if the huevos ranchero & cheddar has meat in it and it was loaded with ham. And I had to watch other people get their delicious single bagel first before mine was ready and I was so hungry!!! But I digress. The egg & cheese was good though but cream cheese smear was not enough. Overall super cheap fluffy delicious bagels I would come back for but I'll load the cream cheese me self next time.

These are incredible, especially when you get them fresh and hot! My favorite is the Butter & Salt doughnut. Pair that with a coffee and you really can't go wrong. I love that their doughnuts are light and flavorful without feeling overly heavy or super sweet.

Hands down, the best donuts ever. No contest…read more I've been a customer since this shop opened in 2013 (I believe around this time). My cousin (who briefly worked there) brought my brother and I when we were 13 (me) and 15 (my brother). We got to eat donuts all day. One of my fondest memories with my cousin. Anyways, I've gone many times over the years and always recommend Sidecar to everyone I come across (if donuts come up in conversation). I went yesterday as well and my gosh, the quality has not changed! Sidecar always amazes me and whoever I bring. They live up to the "hype." In my book, they make the best product, period. Their huckleberry donut and choc-o-lot are absolute classics. Their seasonal pumpkin cinnamon roll donut was great as well. Their staff is always friendly and attentive. 10/10 recommend.

I went with my usual Bananarama, and my sister got some other delicious concoction that was absolutely fantastic. Everything was, as always, SO GOOD. What I love most about Microdose is the consistency. Every single time, they deliver. And I have to give credit where credit is due: Microdose was the first coffee spot where I ever had banana coffee, and they do it RIGHT. There's something about that banana coffee that just hits differently, and after being away in New York for over a year, I was seriously counting down until I could have it again. California trip officially started the right way. Microdose, you will always have a special place in my coffee-loving heart. 10/10!

The place they are currently residing in used to be one of those belt driven sushi bars, but now it's pancakes. Which could have been fun with a belt drive system. But I digress. I had never eaten at this restaurant, but had always wanted to so today seemed like the perfect day to do so. Parking is definitely a little bit limited. I can imagine when it gets busy that it's tough to find parking, but I got here early enough in the morning so I was able to find it. If I'm being completely honest, the inside feels like an upscale IHOP. With a modern twist. The booths are nice and comfy, and the syrups are on full display much like IHOP. Wait staff was friendly and attentive, so I ordered the steak Skillet which came with a 7 oz steak, two eggs, potatoes with peppers, mushrooms and cheese, as well as half a biscuit and two buttermilk pancakes. I was very impressed with the steak, I'll be it a little bit tough, it was still a good size steak and very tasty. The skillet potatoes were amazing and the pancakes were very good. My only complaint about the service was I had to ask for my milk two times. Again, it wasn't that busy to wear. It would be easy to forget, but I will slide them some gray so, give them four stars instead of three. Bottom line? The food was delicious. I would definitely come here again. If you happen to be in Costa Mesa and you are craving some good pancakes, this place should definitely be on your list!

We were the only ones there so our food took about 15 minutes to come out after we ordered. If you're looking for a low-key spot for brunch, check out this place ! The brekky sandwich was a crispy BLT with spinach, egg, and avocado. It was greasy but delicious. The bam bam burrito was fresh and savory. It was like an elevated breakfast burrito. They made it fresh and hot. I needed to let it cool before enjoying. It is on the more expensive side but it is to be expected when you're in Newport Costa Mesa around the bougie people.

After doing some searching on their menu online, I noticed that there was a drive up delivery option and I immediately added a coffee to my cart. A lot of the reviews suggest that their cedar cinnamon coffee is really good so I opted for that. I drove up and clicked the link to let them know I was in the front and waited for about five minutes before I just walked inside the store. Everybody was in the back and when I walked in, I saw my coffee sitting on the side. I was offered a free sample, but no apology for not bringing my order to my car. After I took my first sip, I would say that the cedar cinnamon tasted just like an iced coffee with cinnamon in it. Not exactly what I was looking for and it wasn't anything life-changing. The brownie sample in my opinion wasn't good. The brownie itself was refrigerated and after I let it sit out for a few minutes the brownie had a unusually light texture that almost melted in your mouth like a chocolate, but more airy not your typical brownie that is sort of chewy like cake. It seems like they have a lot of food items that may be a stronger selling point than their coffee.
