    The chocolate came a bit melted and was darn delish!
    Joa G.

    One of my very spots in Orange County the Montage hotel. First time eating at the Mosaic grill though, didn't disappoint. Everything we ordered was 8-9/10. Service was mediocre with the exception of our waiter Dee, she was amazing! I'm speaking of in general, we were asking to sit where the sun was not hitting us and was turned down twice due to tables were already reserved, even though parties still have not arrived by the time we left. The view is definitely picturesque from pretty much anywhere you sit though, so definitely worth the extra price of the food just for the view. You can either opt for valet parking for free if you spend over $100 or pay the fee unsure how much. Or self parking around the corner (spaces limited) for a small fee per hour - 3 hour limit. Nevertheless will probably be back.

    cheeseburger and ahi tuna bowl

    montage is beautiful and makes for a perfect lunch spot! the cheeseburger was cooked medium and the ahi tuna was a good portion. service seemed a bit rushed, there's valet, its free if you spend over $120 before tip, they validate for $30 if not.

    Every time I have a friend that comes for a visit out of town or even out of the country mosaic grill is where we pop into.. It's not fancy, which is great . You can have salads Aji, tuna pasta, burgers nachos, however. What fascinated us on Saturday was the extensive collection of clase azul tequilas... and if you want a quick tutorial head to the bar at mosaic grill, the bartenders are so informative. He told us everything we could possibly know about this particular tequila. Of course we had to then have some and ring the bell ! The sunsets are extraordinary from this vantage point of the hotel so if you ever have a chance to come at sunset, have a great meal something to drink it's beyond spectacular... or you can do what we did we had a cocktail and then we had dinner at the loft which is also connected to the hotel... Either way you're going to have a great time ..

    Frosé All Day

    We came here for drinks and appetizers before dinner. We were staying at the hotel and wanted to enjoy the water while having some refreshments. The service staff was nice but I felt like there were often times we were needing something and couldn't find them. I'd think they'd be a bit more attentive with the pricing here. I got the frosé all day and it's definitely a strong drink! If you want something refreshing, strong and frozen then get this. We also got the calamari and ahi tartare. We really enjoyed both dishes! The ahi was light and refreshing but I wish the wonton chips were a little thicker or crispier because some of them were very crumbly. The calamari was nice and crispy and I liked it best with the marinara. Overall, a nice spot if you're staying at the hotel and want more casual food! We also ate at the Loft for dinner and I thought the food here was better than at their nicer restaurant. I'd rather have had dinner here.

    I've been coming to the Mosaic since I was a child. This is a must-try spot if you're in OC. The view is breathtaking, the food is delicious, the service is always top-tier. Everything on the menu is great but I have an obsession with their seasoned french fries. At the very least, come visit for a cocktail and an appetizer while you enjoy the scenery.

    We enjoyed our time. The food was delicious, and atmosphere was great. Special thanks to Vidal for going above and beyond to serve our dinner.

    My daughter treated herself to a couple of nights at the Montage to celebrate her 30th birthday. Family joined her when we could. We ate at Mosaic twice. First night was fabulous! Ocean view table and delicious food. Our server, Kevin had great suggestions and helped make our evening fun! We went back the next night for her BDay dinner! (Including our little dog.) The fresh fish and cocktails were delicious!

    Mosaic Burger
    James H.

    Come for the view and some drinks but not the food. Like others have said: way overpriced and slow service with not all staff wearing masks. Had the Mosaic burger at $28 and it was fine. Not worth the price though. Service was pretty slow throughout the meal. Outdoor dining available

    Was excited to try this place after trying out the spa. We stopped by for lunch on a Tuesday and it was easy to get water view seats for two. View 5/5: Water and lawn views while you enjoy your food no complaints. Food 3.5/5: We ordered the ceviche for an app and were very satisfied. Was probably the highlight of the meal. Generous portions of shrimp soaked in lime and topped with fresh avocados. Served with generous portions of fresh tortilla chips. For mains we ordered the swordfish tacos and the lobster quesadilla. The lobster quesadilla was tasty with a warm grilled tortilla bread and melted cheese. The tacos were underwhelming lacking flavor and on the dry side. Drinks 3/5: margaritas served out of plastic cups assuming because the restaurant is adjacent to the pool. Drinks were average at best. If you're looking for good food and drinks with water view I would recommend Blu180 at the Ritz which is not far away from this place. Still worth checking out if you're staying at the hotel or using spa services.

    My sister and I came here on a Monday and we ordered a hummus plate sort of dish and the ceviche. Both had good flavor. I wished that the hummus plate had more tomatoes and cucumbers instead of celery but that's honestly not a big deal. The beer was good, my sister got a piña colada and that was really really delicious. The ceviche was good and had serranos which added a nice spice. The service was a bit lacking. We needed to flag our waitress down to order and later to get the check, and this took quite a bit of time. There were long periods where she did not check in with us and we would've probably ordered additional drinks if she had. It seemed like she was quite busy so this was not a fault of her's but likely insufficient staffing and management issues. Nonetheless it was a bit frustrating. This restaurant is great if you're spending time at the pool, though, and had a good variety of items. We lounged by the pool the entire time we were dining. There are also tables with a nice view of the beach and ocean. Be prepared to spend quite a bit of money, though.

    Took my mother-in-law here for her birthday and we all had such a great experience!…read more We got there around 4-4:15pm and had about a 20 minute wait, but we were able to find a high top table that we got to sit at and were able to order drinks from the bar, so that helped to pass our time. We got seated at our table at our table around 4:30p and had the most perfect view of the ocean! *we went on a Friday night and noticed the patio cleared out about 4:45-5pm and I didn't appear to have a lot of people waiting during that time. The main patio was covered with umbrellas, so once you are seated for dinner, there was plenty of umbrellas for shade and heaters for when it got a little cooler. For our food orders, and as recommended by our server, we went with their seafood options and ordered their Pacific Ceviche for an appetizer and for Entrees my husband got the Roasted Halibut and me and my mother-in-law both got the Scallop and Shrimp pasta. We all loved our dishes and were very satisfied with our choices. Their menu does have non-seafood options, but why not to try what they're most prominent for? They don't have a dessert menu, but they heard that we were celebrating mom's birthday so they brought us a little Toffee Cake to share and enjoy...and for a place that doesn't have dessert, the cake was pretty delicious. Such a cute place all around. My husband and I can't wait to go back! Parking - they have valet parking available right in front of the restaurant or theres street metered parking in the surrounding area.

We asked for a table for 2 and we were 3rd in line to be seated after a couple in front of us asked to be seated at the bar. The hosted sat us at a small table in the back right under the stairs. They had plenty of nicer tables with better views not under the stairs because they just opened. We ordered 2 drinks a vodka soda and a drink off the menu, are drinks came right away and my husbands drink was nasty, he had me taste it and I told him there was no carbonation in the drink, I took it back up the bar they threw it out and fixed the drink with a new carbonation seltzer. I tasted my drink and it had the same problem but I drank it anyway. We ordered oysters and poke appetizer It was delicious. After our drinks we ordered 2 more drinks vodka soda and a aperol spritzer right before we ordered our main dish a seafood pasta, our pasta came before our 2nd order of drinks came they took forever! We waited for our server to bring us our check for a while and then asked another server to grab him for us We paid our check $180 plus tip Which was awkward because the server showed us where to leave a tip. Service was horrible and our drinks were even worse!! The food was really good, but not good enough to make up for the negatives this restaurant had!! Won't return!

I always go for the ribeye melt or the French dip (order while it lasts). Both are absolutely to die for. The au jus is drinkable, and I could eat the Worcester sauce with a spoon. Next up, the butter cake. Oh my god, this thing is to die for. Although we're always stuffed after our well portioned entrees, we never ever leave without ordering it. The cake is rich and crumbly. And the compote complements it perfectly, although I always wish there was more. The little mint leaves are also a wonderful bit of added flavor. If you go for the sides, I would highly recommend the potato salad. It's slightly more acidic than most, and it has little bits of bacon, which give you little bites of smokeyness. The one time I didn't order the potato salad, I got the blue cheese and tomatoes instead. It was more of an underwhelming side because it was - you guessed it- just blue cheese and tomatoes. Probably a little bit of an interpretation mistake on my part... Overall, you can get an incredible entre for around $18. This is very competitive with other restaurants even outside Laguna Beach. Delicious food, and great value for your dollar.

The Ceviche was fresh and packed with flavor. The Focaccia was so fluffy and was served with a delicious whipped honey butter. For my entree I ordered the Short Rib Pappardelle. The chunk of short rib was massive and the creme fraise really tied all the elements of the dish together. My friends ordered the Wild Caught Chilean Sea Bass and American Wagyu Beef Burger.

Ambiance plays a big role (in my opinion) to a restaurant and not getting to be seated inside or at least on a patio docked some points off for me. For a special occasion dinner, I don't want to be sitting in a parking lot tent. For the price point, I didn't really feel the restaurant quality (plating, service, ambiance) really reaches those expectations. I can tell their food is great, I think I wish I chose something different when ordering. I couldn't tell you exactly what we ordered since I think they launched a new menu just this week but I'll describe it the best I can. Espresso Martini -5/5 Great espresso martini! No notes. Burrata with pesto - 4/5 Light and refreshing appetizer. This wasn't my first choice for appetizer but my partner loves burrata so we got it. It would be really hard to mess this up so I have no notes. $20+ for one tomato was pretty shocking, though. Tagliolini with shrimp and mushrooms - 2/5 To be fair, I've never had tagliolini before so I don't have a reference point of how it should be and maybe it's just not my style. The pasta was thin and flat and very very soft. There was absolutely no bite to it whatsoever and felt like it might be over cooked (again, I'm not expert so maybe this is how it should be). Because of the texture and size it kind of was just one big soft clump on the plate. The shrimp and mushrooms were nice and I enjoyed the sauce but I really didn't like the pasta on this one. And I know plating have any affect of the food but this one seemed really sloppily thrown together and I was pretty sad when it was put on the table. Definitely wasn't pretty or exciting to look at. Pappardelle made w/ beets in quail ragu - 4/5 We really enjoyed this pasta! The pasta itself had a subtle sweetness to it from the beets which made it much more interesting than your typical pasta dough. It had a nice chew, which is what I was really missing in the other dish. The quail ragu was yummy, although we did find a bone but it was large enough to easily pick out and put to the side. Panna Cotta - 4.5/5 Thick and rich vanilla panna cotta with a tart berry compote. Very delicious!
