    Donuts and the beach
    Aimee B.

    This place has been my go to for as long as it's been opened. Moved to Indian and no offense but SoCal donut shops reign supreme. Went back to this place last week and it was like home. Delicious everything and now they have conchas! Great to see that. Service is always great. Always bustling no matter what time but they have enough people there so the wait is non existent. Class donut shop ambiance with drink menus and sandwich menus on the wall. Love luvn donuts!

    The variety dozen of donuts for sharing!!

    Luvin' Donuts, as an afternoon (and afterthought) donut runs are always fun, and the lady at the counter, was super nice, even gave us a few extras. We obviously lucked out! Luvin' Donuts, like most classic pink-box donut shop, is a local community store, with a solid variety of choices (check out the menu), and plenty of parking in this plaza. The donut shop was clean, but there was a slight wet-smell. The doors were propped open with a wet floor sign nearby, so maybe there had been a spill. It just didn't have the sweet aroma I expected. I keep snooping their speciality which included taro donut -- very unexpected but interesting!!! On the opposite end of the shop, there's a "coffee bar" station to self pour your own coffee and add creamer/etc. The blueberry donut was good. Overall, a good place to pick up a dozen donuts enroute to the office or afternoon later with coffee treats for your teammates.

    This is such a great place if you just want a quick breakfast or dessert item, I absolutely adore any kind of ham/turkey and cheese croissant so when I ran into this shop and found out they had some I was so excited. They offer it room temp or heated and have such a wide variety of drinks as well. The people helping are quick and friendly. This shop is definitely worth the price

    Great variety thru tgtc. Love this place!

    Always delicious! Super fresh and soft donuts. Plus there's a new coffee place next door that's also really good

    One of the nicer doughnut shops I've been to. They have everything here. You can get juice drinks, smoothies,Boba. Breakfast items are served all day. They have sandwiches, open face bagels. They even have doughnuts. They are friendly, and service is fast. They have tables inside too.

    I just have to stop and take the time to acknowledge good service in a donut shop. Yesterday I had to be at work at 6 a.m. on a Sunday; so I wanted to get some donuts for my bosses and some of my co-workers and I definitely wanted to go to one of my favorite donut shops; which conveniently is around the corner from my job. Now this means that I needed the donut shop to be open no later than 5:30 a.m. so that I wasn't late for work. My husband checked Yelp for me and wouldn't you know it Luv n Donuts opened at 4 a.m. and was readily stocked with some really good donuts and my favorites as well. I l love that Luv n Donuts always have some really cute good donuts for the holidays and some of the biggest best croissants you ever had! Yesterday I tried a glaze cinnamon twist that caught my eye and it was delicious! Unfortunately I can't speak to many other items such as the sandwiches, coffee, etc because I've only have tried the donuts and croissants; which is what I need out of a donut shop. The other good thing is it's in a nice area that makes it easily accessible to get in and out quickly. Now you might drive up and see a line at any given time but know that they move it along very quickly and you will be in and out. Thank you Luv n Donuts for making an early work morning donut delicious!

    My husband loves maple bars so I ordered Happy Birthday letter donuts all as maple bars. He was surprised and it was a fun way to make a non-milestone birthday a little more special :) So grateful to Luv n Donuts for doing this at such an affordable price. Have been there for regular donuts many times before, and valentines hearts on Valentine's Day are always so cute from here too. The donuts are not too greasy or oily like other donut shops, and always light and fluffy and airy. What you'd want in a freshly baked donut ;) A great, neighborhood donut shop that I will continue going to. Also just great to support a local business! Definitely go if you haven't been yet.

    First time here and the line was out the door. The service was fast, efficient, and it was super clean. The donuts I ordered were extremely light and fluffy. The bagel sandwich had fresh egg and a ton of bacon on it. The coffee was not the best, in my opinion. Overall, I would visit this location again if I was in the area.

    Luv n donuts is located right by south coast and is such a great mom & pop shop. The owners are super sweet and they have a ton of variety. From your classics like glazed, chocolate long john's to new and exciting combos like the cap n crunch donut. I'm usually a glazed girl, however, luv n donuts chocolate bars and sugared donuts have changed my mind.

    I consider myself above average in the field of sandwich expertise. I work in the field as a…read moreRegional Manager, I enjoy sandwiches still and I try out different spots often to see what the "competition" is like. Board and Brew is definitely top notch! I was deciding on where to snag lunch on my way to another store doing my rounds and I really wanted a sandwich. I decided to get the Turkado, some dirty Maui chips and drink. The total came to $17 and some change, not bad about the avg for the area and any lunch. The service was great, the woman who helped me was nice, and efficient, she helped me select what chips to get. Not much bantering but I do enough of that at work, so all good here. The store was clean, nice vibe, music. My order was ready in the time it took me to fill my soda cup and sit down to scroll 1 scroll thru outlook emails. Maybe 5-7 mins the woman who gave me my order asked if I wanted some secret sauce on the side, and put it in the bag. The bag felt heavy! The sub was huge! Probably 8inches bread was nice and springy, there was enough lettuce, tomato and sauces on it. I love the sunflower seeds, gives it a nice little crunch. The meat is more of a very thin piled high but there is a lot of it! I like how the sub is assembled meat, cheese, toppings sauce, it seems to hold together nicely.

    This review covers my experience across multiple locations, including Harbor Boulevard in Costa…read moreMesa and Beach Boulevard in Huntington Beach. When I first started coming to Board and Brew, I would have given it a solid five stars, but my perspective has shifted after six years of exploring other local options in the county. The Evolution of the Experience: * Ingredients: While the food is definitely better than a pre-made deli sandwich from a grocery store, it isn't exactly top-tier. The bread and meat are good, but as you try more specialized places, you realize these are fairly standard. * The Famous Sauce: Their signature sauce is tasty, but it feels like it contains a high amount of monosodium glutamate (MSG). MSG is a neuro-exciter that can make people feel overstimulated or unwell after eating it, and it feels particularly intense in this recipe. * Consistency: Both the Huntington Beach and Costa Mesa locations were great initially, but they now feel more like a solid, middle-of-the-road option. The Best Use Case: * Catering & Events: Even with a three-star rating, this is absolutely the place I would go if I needed catering for a birthday party or a large event. Their pricing and preparation for bulk orders are hard to beat. Final Thoughts: If Yelp allowed half-stars, I'd probably give this a 3.5. It's a reliable, solid sandwich shop, but the ingredient quality and the intensity of the MSG in the sauce keep it from being a five-star favorite for me anymore. Edit: The owner replied to my comment about how their food is high quality, but 6 years of taste testing says otherwise. While you may not add pure MSG crystals to your sauce, it still contains MSG.It is misleading to claim "No MSG" or "High Quality" when the sauce relies on ingredients that are chemically identical to it. For instance: Tomatoes and Tomato Paste: These are among the highest natural sources of free glutamate. If the recipe uses tomato paste--as many copycats do--it will test positive for MSG. Soy Sauce & Worcestershire Sauce: Both frequently cited in recipes for this sauce, these contain naturally occurring MSG through fermentation or hydrolysis. Nutritional Yeast: Often used to provide a savory flavor, it naturally contains high levels of glutamate.Hydrolyzed Proteins: Ingredients like "hydrolyzed vegetable protein" (HVP) or "yeast extract" are processed specifically to release glutamates. Legally, a company might say they "don't use MSG" if they don't add the pure additive, but that is a technicality. MSG is linked to various health issues for sensitive individuals, and just because many consider it "safe" doesn't mean it's healthy or non-harmful. If the food is truly "high quality," why rely on these additives to create flavor? Best Wishes

The marbling was excellent, the meat was incredibly fresh, and they turned out to be some of the best steaks I've cooked at home. My wife also had a great experience with the service. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful, which made the whole experience even better. You can definitely tell Mario's takes pride in the quality of their meat. If you appreciate a great steak and want something noticeably better than what you typically find at a grocery store, this is the place to go. We'll absolutely be coming back. Highly recommended!

The pastrami was pure perfection, the greens fresh and crispy, the pickles big and chunky, and the rye was fresher than fresh. There was just enough moisture that the sandwich was easy to eat without falling apart. The fries were cooked to perfection. There is an assortment of sauces, but I opted for no sauce today. This was also my first Boylan Root Beer, and WOW--it took me right back to childhood and root beer floats. If you're old enough, then you KNOW what real root beer tastes like! I came for lunch the first time, and the place was packed, with seating filling up fast. This time I came for an early dinner: no line, no rush, and lots of places to sit! They close at 6 PM, so if you want an early dinner without the rush, make sure you come to Mario's Butcher Shop!!! You will NOT be disappointed!!!
