The Secret Menu Chilaquiles Verdes were absolutely delicious! The house-made tomatillo sauce had the perfect balance of tangy, fresh flavor with just the right amount of sourness. Every bite tasted homemade and authentic. The chips stayed crisp while soaking up all that amazing green sauce, making the dish incredibly satisfying. You can tell the chef takes pride in using quality ingredients and preparing everything with care. If you're a fan of chilaquiles with a bright, flavorful tomatillo kick, this dish is a must-try. Compliments to the chef for creating such a memorable breakfast! Chef, thank you for an amazing meal--I'll definitely be back! The service is impeccable read more

Came here with 4 girlfriends to celebrate a 50th birthday brunch and the oceanfront window table made the whole experience Definitely a touristy Laguna spot, so parking is either a struggle or $$$. The albacore tostada was tasty but tiny -- more like a mini taco, not ideal for sharing. The seafood tower, though, was the highlight: loaded with big shrimp, oysters, lobster ceviche & more. Perfect for seafood lovers and great to split. Staff seemed a little cold at first, but they were actually very attentive with refills and service throughout brunch. Overall, the food was okay, but the views are unbeatable. If you're visiting Laguna Beach and don't mind a lively touristy scene, this is the spot read more

Las Brisas is the best! We came for a girls brunch and everything was fantastic. The margaritas were delicious and the food was just as good, perfect brunch spot with a great atmosphere. Ricardo was our server and he was such a delight. He was attentive, friendly, and really went out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed. The manager, Sarah, even stopped by our table to check in and make sure everything was going well, which we really appreciated. Overall it was such a great experience. Amazing service, great drinks, and delicious food -- we'll definitely be back! read more

I came with my daughter and her husband on Mother's Day. We sat outside and my daughter was directly in the sun. They were kind enough to move us inside by a window with a view of the beach and ocean. The waiter had a nice personality. I split poached eggs and a crab omelette, so I had 2 entrees. Food was hot and tasty. I had a delicious slice of cheesecake. Waiter was so nice. Mariachis were walking around playing Mexican music. read more

WARNING: DECEITFUL tipping practices! Suggested tip amounts printed at bottom of check are inflated. Our total with tax was $200. The bill showed $44 for a 20% tip - that's 22% of the taxed total and 24% of the subtotal. We only noticed because when the server took our credit card, he asked if he should add a 20% tip. We were surprised but agreed, then noticed the tip he gave himself was higher than 20%. When we told him this, he said he used what was printed at the bottom. That's when we saw that all the suggest tip amounts were inflated. This is either a system-wide error or an unscrupulous way to mislead guests to leave bigger tips. We told the manager, who replied that no one is forced to leave anything. We also found out that our server got someone's order wrong, then told the manager that we didn't like the dish. Dishonesty and suspicious practices throughout the restaurant. Buyer beware! Aside from that, the view is nice and drinks are good. Food was decent, not amazing, and overpriced because of the location. read more

Dined here today 2/16. Lorenzo was our server. The restaurant was quiet due to the rain but the service was great. The Busser was polite and great customer service as well. We had the ribeye & lobster enchiladas, mushroom risotto, barbacoa short rib. The only suggestion I would have is to offer vegetables or other side options for the kids dishes. read more

Beautiful location right on the beach with amazing views. The service was good, but weekend brunch menu is pretty limited. The food was average and the portions were fairly small for the price. Granted, it's on the beach, but the parking situation is ridiculous. The valet lot is tiny, and street parking is a literal fist fight to get within blocks, unless you're willing to pay $35-$50 for 2-3 hours of parking at a private lot 3 blocks and a hill away read more

OMG!! The food was so delicious. Then we'd bone marrow was amazing. The branzino was so flavorful as well as the scallops. Love the view of the ocean while you are relaxing eating. Our serve stafani was great. She checked on us constantly. Great place to have an intimate meal with your significant others read more

Excellent food, ambience and service. Mario our sever was 100% amazing, such charisma!!! Valet parking was a steal at $10 The Branzino 100/10 and the Cioppino 8.5/10. The Cioppino was just missing the broth. They barely put any in the dish. read more

Beautiful view. Great service - especially by Frank. Tasty breakfast potatoes. Good for groups.

Actually the food is not bad, but the lady guiding us to the table is rude, when we asked a vacancy by the window, she gave it to the other people who came later then us, not friendly to the tourists and not good for the restaurant. read more

I came here for the 4 course prix fix Valentine's Day Dinner with my partner and my friends and felt we were treated poorly and disregarded from this server who seemed to be in charged of the area we were seated. We actually had a different server from everyone and everyone around us were getting a rose but we didn't get any. We asked our server if she could bring the heat up in the heater, but she was unable to bring it up and said it was the highest temperature. But towards the end of our dinner the server who was serving everyone else asked if he could move the heater towards another spot and proceeded to put the heater up to its highest. Right as we were leaving he decided to change the temperature. After we put in our order it took about 15 + minutes for us to get our appetizers, I ordered a seafood cóctel and as I was eating it I found a blonde hair in my food. I waited for our server to come by but the only one that was near by was the guy who was serving everyone else and my partner had to wave him down to get his attention. He proceeded to take my app away but didn't seem bothered by it. Then later on it looked like one of the managers brought out my new cocktail and said it was fresh but she didn't have any compensation for the incident. In general my friends and I felt like we were discriminated by the service. Everyone around us got treated better and more attentiveness towards them. We waited long periods of time for each of our courses while everyone else's food came out faster than us. Also the price we paid just didn't justify for the food quality and service we had to endure for our time. read more

I would give 10 stars if I could! Valet parking for $10 in Laguna Beach!! Yes please!! Las Brisas does not disappoint! Went on Saturday, April 11 at 11:30am for two 30th birthdays brunch and were seated right away even though our entire party wasn't there yet. We had a beautiful inside seat by the window overlooking the amazing ocean view and rose garden--simply stunning! Jose Lui greeted us immediately and started us on bottomless mimosas and kept them flowing throughout the meal. What a meal! Everyones order came out fast and fabulous! The food, views, ambiance and service was simply amazing! Thank you so much Las Brisas and Jose Luis for making our day so special! read more

WOW! My wife and I had lunch here over the weekend and it was amazing! The food, the ocean views, and the service was incredible.

Went here on Mother's Day for brunch and sat on the patio. I was excited to take my wife as the spot is beautiful. To be honest, for a 300 dollar brunch the food was average and the service was the worst we have ever had! Our server Julian on the patio was in way over his head. We had to ask him for refills every time we saw him. He sent out our first course before our fruit and bread came, had to ask for that too. The wrong food was delivered several times. The busser was basically our server. It was pretty sad to be honest! Probably will not be back! read more

Outdoor patio with umbrellas is the way to spend your summer lunch or dinner. Great appetizers and delightfully refreshing cocktails. It does get warm on the patio with the glass windows because it blocks the breeze. Servers are nice, but even on a slow day they do take their time. read more

Las Brisas is one of my favorite places to take friends and co workers who are in from out of town to give them breath taking views of the Pacific from Cliff Dr in Laguna Beach. Very good Mexican food with a seafood offering that is delicious! read more

Had brunch on Sunday with my family and the one and only Ricardo from Acapulco took care of us. The service was excellent and very attentive.

Overall great experience Acapulco style! Will definitely be back. read more

Las Brisas - Laguna Beach, CA If you're visiting Laguna Beach and looking for a postcard-perfect view with your meal, Las Brisas delivers--just don't expect the food or service to match the scenery. Price vs. Quality With entrées hovering in the $50-100 range, you'd hope for culinary fireworks. Instead, the food is consistently average at best, with dishes like lobster enchiladas and seafood cocktails that sound exciting but often fall flat in flavor and execution A. Locals know: you're paying for the view, not the meal. ‍ Service Service here is a mixed bag. While some diners report friendly staff, many others--myself included--have experienced long wait times, inattentive servers, and a general sense of being lost in the shuffle A. For a restaurant that's been around since 1938, you'd expect smoother operations. Ambience This is where Las Brisas shines. Perched cliffside on 361 Cliff Dr, the panoramic ocean views are undeniably stunning A. It's the kind of place you bring out-of-town guests to impress them with the scenery--just maybe grab drinks and guac, then head elsewhere for dinner. Bottom Line Las Brisas is a tourist magnet for good reason: the location is unbeatable. But if you're a local or a savvy traveler looking for a memorable meal, there are better options nearby that offer more flavor, better service, and a fairer price tag. Laguna Beach has no shortage of gems--this one's just a little too polished on the outside and hollow within. read more

The location and ambience itself were great! They have a lot of seating that we were able to sit by the window by the water. The food was avg. The portions were not impressive. My daughter ordered shrimp risotto. I had a surf and turf dish with 1 steak enchilada and 1 lobster enchilada for $35 or so. Nothing else went with them. When I reserved on Open Table it asked if we were celebrating anything. I indicated bday. In fact our family was celebrating 3 bdays. There were 5 adults and 2 kids. At the restaurant no one acknowledged that we were celebrating bdays. My husband didnt want to order desserts for everyone bc the dinner was already pricey totaling almost $300. They didn't offer a complimentary dessert. I had to ask if they offered any complimentary dessert since we were celebrating 3 bdays. The server was hesitant and said that he'll see what he can do and that he can probably get a small cake. He came back with one piece of cake with 3 candles and several forks which we appreciated and enjoyed. read more

Best experience overall for us on the island. While the service was nothing to speak about, the ambiance especially the open-air views of Chalk Sound were excellent. The food also did not disappoint. Conch fritters were juicy and Coconut shrimp were out of this world. Both were cooked to perfection for a lunch joint. read more

They have ruined the brunch experience. The $40/50 entree includes nothing but the entree. No pastries, fruit or even champagne anymore. EVERYTHING ELSE IS ALA CARTE. Talk about a rip off. They used to have a nice brunch but not anymore. I won't be going back as the entree alone is not worth the price. Service, just so-so. The only saving grace is the view but you don't have to pay the prices to get that. read more

One star for the view, one star for the chips and margarita. The dinner was awful, unappetizing chicken, dry potatoes covered in a suspicious white sauce. Salmon cooked so rare it was more like sushi, gross. Dry jalapeño corn bread the size of a Madeleine cookie that used to be so good. Now like a little brick. This place has gone downhill. Bummer. read more

This restaurant made my family and i very uncomfortable. As a mexican, They discriminated us , service was awful and not only that but they made us sit in a corner table away from everyone else. My dad and mom barley have time to get ready because of work , and it was my mothers birthday and decided to take them here and they made my parents and all of us feel not welcomed. Very awful service . read more
