SAY IT AINT SO!!!! Very sorry to see this place go. We literally ate there 2-3 times a week since it opened, and it was fantastic. There is not an equivalent. read more

Nestled in the Bella Terra plaza, it's a little spot with some outdoor seating. You order at the counter, and they bring the food out to you which was interesting. They also had a little table of cookies, muffins, and candy that was complimentary. That was cute I ordered the crab hashlet, and sadly, by 11am, they were sold out of the smoothie :c the crab hashlet was pretty good, lots and lots of crab, and the bread was freshly hot and toasted. Could've used a bit more salt though. Overall, not bad! I'd come again if I were in the area, not really special to me read more

Alright brunch. Came in because of the (many) high reviews. A little extra effort like wiping the tables, dusting, and providing cutlery/utensils upon sit down would have elevated the experience. They have no WiFi (no problem), and there was a nagging fly that kept flying around. None of the outlets by the booths worked. I asked for steak to be medium rare and it came out well done Coffee art was cool tho! read more

This is such a cute brunch place! We came on a Sunday morning and everyone was so nice and friendly. They had little goodies for free on the side for their customers which was so sweet. The food here was really good as well! We will definitely be back! read more

Very cute brunch spot. Variety of choice....this time I had their acai bowl with a side of tater tots and my friend had their lomo saltado omlete. Both were delicious. However, this time around I had the server come halfway into our meal to ring our check even when we didn't call her over. I was a bit surprised....was that a hint telling us to get going? This was slightly surprising to me. Minus this....it's a nice brunch spot any day of the week to try with a friend! read more

Review #961 2026-027 Nightingale is located on the west side of Bella Terra (refer to Review #962), underneath The Residences at Bella Terra. My son was participating in the Bella Terra Kids Club: Valentine's Day Sweets Stroll, & stopped by next door at Tutu School. Unfortunately, they were holding class & didn't appear to be part of the program (no "Sweet Treats Here" sign). Not sure if M looked dejected or we look like we're hungry, but a friendly staff member approached & informed us that they're not listed on the map but they're offering complimentary treats as part of their daily menu. What!?! We stopped in this charming, chic restaurant... I love the soft pink & vibrant blue accents! Continuing that theme, the pink & white flowered dessert table sits just inside the entrance. And my son was all agog to see Nightingale's sweet treats: a beautiful spread of cookies, mini muffins & donuts, Ferocher chocolates. ^_^ Though the desserts were store-bought, I enjoyed a tasty mini banana nut muffin & the LO picked up another cookie to add to his Sweets Stroll collection. Looking over their modest menu, Nightingale appears to be an American-Thai fusion cafe with moderate to somewhat high price points (considerably more expensive breakfast than in my 'hood). However, they have superb weekday deals like their after 11:00 AM Lunch Special (Thai plate entree includes pork egg roll, side salad, tom yum soup), & limited time Early Bird Bowl (BOGO excluding the Dubai Chocolate Strawberries Bowl). What piques my taste buds is their Chef's Specialty: Cambodian Oxtail Noodle Soup & Crab Hashlet, in addition to the Jalapeño Cucumber & Tamarind Margaritas. With such friendly & welcoming hospitality even though we were not their customer, one can only imagine the service in actually eating here. We have another upcoming 3-day weekend, & definitely plan to drop in for Nightingale's specials... stay tune for the full dining experience! read more

Discovered this hidden gem while looking for an Asian fusion breakfast spot. I was also partially sold on the bird name because I love birds. The food is delicious, but the service was not satisfactory. We were seated outside and my boyfriend went to order inside. He came back and said the cash register person kind of gave him an attitude because he gave a less-than-18% tip. She got cold and was not friendly at all after that. Later, when he went to ask for a to-go box, one of the girls was on her phone and did not respond in a friendly way. This is all surprising because for such a nice restaurant you would expect a little bit of a friendlier service. Also, how can you expect a high tip when 1) you have not provided any service at all and 2) this is one of those restaurants where you order at the counter, they bring the food out to you, and that is it. Even water is self-served for crying out loud. What would the tip be for? I'd call that highway robbery. With that said, I did enjoy my Crab Hashlet. I don't think I've had anything like this before. It was well-made and the flavors were balanced. The bowl looked like it was filled with crab but in reality, it was mostly rice underneath. BF had the Chorizo Burrito and it was also decent. Maybe I'd come back if they stop giving customers an attitude for not tipping for nonexistent service. read more

Located at the side of Bella Terra plaza, there's a good amount of parking, but it can easily fill up during peak hours. The restaurant is smaller than I imagined, but there's a good amount of tables. It's a Thai brunch fusion with tons of options. They have a variety of drinks too. We ordered the Cali burrito, chilequiles, and strawberry shortcake French toast. The Cali burrito was stacked but it was smaller than expected. The chilequiles was good, but just okay. I've definitely had better. The strawberry shortcake was delicious. I also got the Thai tea and green Thai tea. The Thai tea was light and watered down, but I liked that it wasn't super sweet. The green Thai tea was delicious. This is a cute spot to try. Their brunch is okay, but Id like to come back and try their Thai foods. read more

Love this spot! Conveniently located with lots of shopping around, it's the perfect place to start the day. It has both indoor and outdoor seating. I prefer indoor dining as the decorations are beautiful and the entire Cafe is photo friendly. My last visit was during the holidays, therefore, extra holiday decor and treats were available. The food is fantastic! I've tried several dishes and beverages, and enjoyed each one. Orders are taken at the counter with food brought to your table. The place is clean and service was great, with tables cleared for us once we were finished. The only downside is parking can be a bit tough at times (weekends and holidays), otherwise, I'd consider there to be plenty of spaces. Definitely a place I'd recommend! read more

Strawberry shortcake French toast - thought there was too much shortcake crumbles which made dish really sweet, toast was buttery and chewy, not too big of a fan bc it's too sweet Lomo Saltado Omelet - highly recommend if you're trying to hit your protein goal and want something savory, unique, and delicious! I love the lomo gravy sauce, it's savory and added sooo much flavor to the steak + eggs + potatoes + onions. perfectly seasoned and such a creative omelet, the best brunch omelets I've had! Lemon blueberry hot cakes - LOVE THIS, the cream balances out the blueberry tartness and sweet syrup. I didn't really taste any lemon, would prob prefer a stronger flavor profile. But overall very solid sweet dish! Staff friendly and service quick. Parking is free and easy. Highly recommend trying their creative lattes! read more

Ah, the Nightingale! I recently came back here on another beloved foodie adventure with a buddy for some brunch and was in for quite the treat! Located at Bella Terra in Huntington Beach, The Nightingale is a flowery and aesthetically inviting spot. On a Saturday afternoon, it was a bit busy but luckily nothing too crazy due to the rainy weather out. We ordered the Maple Bacon Breakfast Sandwich and Classic Breakfast Burrito and both were awesome and did not disappoint taste and flavor-wise. Portions could've been a bit better but luckily we weren't too hungry and they were offering a really sweet complimentary snack and pastry station alongside our meal which was awesome. More of a small pet peeve of mine, but it did irk me how our table rocked a bit during the whole time (like c'mon, such a simple fix) but gratefully the ambiance inside is so stellar that it really didn't matter in the grand scheme of things! The staff members here are always friendly and accommodating which is always cool of-course. I'd definitely be back here and totally feel free to give it a try if you particularly crave an ambiance! read more

An aesthetically pleasing brunch spot in Bella Terra. It's a little small inside, but a very pretty restaurant from the decor to the plating of the dishes. The menu is extensive. The Strawberry Shortcake French Toast was mostly good; maybe a little dry, but the strawberries were very fresh. The service could use some improvement, as we were only one of two parties seated (the other was already eating), and it took so long for someone to come take our order that we were wondering if we were supposed to order at the counter. However, the wait between ordering and getting our food was very short (since we were the only order), and we got the check promptly after we finished eating. Overall, a pleasant experience. Next time I'm in the area, I hope to come back to try another dish and their matcha drinks! read more

Nightingale - Strawberry ShortCake French Toast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

Hmm, I can't say that I'm over the moon about Nightingale due to my recent experience. I appreciate the staff for doing their best when short staffed, but the quality fell short even in our food. We were not told that we had to go up and order and was left thinking they forgot about us, but they probably realized once we were sat down for a while. It is more casual for a brunch place than I thought as water cups were also self serve. Utensils were provided depending on what dishes were ordered. Smoked Salmon Toast (2/5): This was probably my least favorite salmon toast I've had by far, sadly! The multigrain toast was cold, the cream cheese ratio was spread so thin and that single layer of smoked salmon made this toast so so weak, and is definitely an item that can be recreated at home. Lomo Saltado Omelet (3/5): The Filet Mignon just didn't quite taste similar to what I've had in a Lomo Saltado at other restaurants. The meat was a bit salty, and the eggs were more of a scramble than an omelet shape. Crab Cake Benny (2.5/5): I was not a fan of it either, as I felt like I was eating fried crab cake batter. The side salad was sliced lettuce, carrots, purple cabbage, and strawberry slices, which did not come with anything else, which I found very peculiar, but healthy I suppose. The Acai Bowl was actually the best thing out of our order, we loved the chia pudding and almond butter. I think these dishes could be improved but maybe it was just due to the staffing that day. I'm not entirely certain but I am glad to have tried it and mark it off my brunch list. read more

Came here with a few girlfriends for breakfast. The seating and decor inside was cute. I tried the breakfast burrito and cookie butter French toast.

Nightingale has some of the freshest açaí bowls around. Love all the fruit options, especially since they have mango and kiwi. The woman I believe to be the owner is always so nice. She even gave me this drink for free, since she was taking photos for their menus. Super cute spot for brunch, as well. Their noodle soups are pretty darn good. read more

Came across this place by accident and so happy we did! It is so cutely decorated inside and the owner was so sweet and welcoming. Ordered the açaí bowl and bacon and egg sandwich and both were so good! The açaí bowl tasted really fresh and they have a BOGO 50% off option as well. They put out free treats like macarons and cookies for their customers too which I think is so sweet. Would definitely comeback here and recommend for anyone looking for great breakfast options and Thai food read more

Great customer service. Everyone was very attentive. Cute seating arrangement. My fruity pebbles French toast was amazing!

Food was delicious and came out fairly quickly. I was surprised that the food actually tasted as good as it looked. Service was fast and friendly. Food and drinks came out quicker than anticipated. Starting off with the iced biscoff latte. It had a nice balance of coffee flavor and sweetness without being overly sweet. The açaí was so refreshing. The flavor and texture was good. The açaí and blue ocean together tasted amazing. The tres leches hot cakes were 10/10 fluffy and delicious. The Bennies with crab cakes were tasty and the poached eggs was perfectly cooked 10/10. The strawberry French toast was on the sweeter side 7/10. The lomo omelette was flavorful 10/10. Based on my first experience I'm coming back. read more

Delicious indulgent & original drinks! Friendly and efficient staff! The food was great though it was before noon and they were already out of the oxtail noodle soup so that was a letdown.

I love it here. The food is always amazing and the service is even better! I've been here a couple times and today I tried some of their soupy dishes. So much flavor in the oxtail soup you don't even need to add anything else. Their seafood tom kha is packed with spices that balances out with the coconut base. This bowl was huge and had so much shrimp and crab meat. Of course can't forget about the crying tiger. Always a hit read more

This place is lovely, I love how extensive the menu is. Was here visiting my friends for the weekend and they recommended grabbing brunch here. We sat outside because we had a fairly large group and it was nice out. We all ordered different dishes and we shared. I ordered the crab cake benny and that was alone delicious! I tried the kathiew and blueberry lemon ricotta pancake and was that lovely! Everything had amazing flavor and the plating was beautiful. Everyone was raving about how yummy their brunch was. We had a great time and service was great for one person tending to 10 of us. read more

This was my third visit, and unfortunately, my last. My friend had this place on her list, but the experience was a disaster from the start. We weren't even greeted; instead, we were immediately told they had a "full house" and were forced to order to-go. When we asked if we could wait for a table, we were flatly told no. We placed our order and returned 30 minutes later, only to find three other parties being accommodated and seated while we were still being pushed out. It felt incredibly inconsistent and, frankly, biased. After we finally demanded a seat, we had to unbox our own to-go containers and ask for plates. As for the food: * The Cambodian Noodle Soup: My friend ordered this, and it was a massive disappointment; completely lacked flavor. If you want authentic Cambodian food, save yourself the trouble and drive to Long Beach instead. * The Burrito: I stuck with the burrito because I knew what I was getting into. It's fine, but certainly nothing special. The "vibe" here is not worth the poor service or the feeling that you're being treated differently based on who you are. This place needs to get its process in order and stop prioritizing certain customers over others. Do not recommend read more

First off, Nightingale only takes reservations. This wonderful spot is right next to Solita, located in K-2 plaza across from a water fountain (across from Old Navy). If you happen to go towards T-Mobile, you'll be in the wrong area, my friend. I ordered the oxtail Kathiew flat noodle soup, while Mom went for the filet mignon Kathiew. Izzy enjoyed a sausage burger with avocados and a refreshing strawberry lemonade. Jenny is truly amazing! I genuinely mean it--she goes the extra mile to ensure her customers are happy. Shout out to Erick and the staff for their exceptional service as well. The ambiance and vibe of this place are perfect for brunch. I can't wait to return on one of these Tuesdays for their Açaí bowls! read more

The ambiance of the interior decor was cheery and aesthetically pleasing. I liked the concept of the fusion menu and appreciated the array snacks that were laid out for guests to enjoy. The reason why I don't give the full 5 stars is because although we went to try the fusion menu, the thai food was not available until a later time that was not specified online for us to know prior to our visit. Additionally, while the staff was respectful, they were a bit unpolished (visually) and did not acknowledge us at our table for a while despite being some of the only customers in the restaurant. Lastly, other than the matcha, the food tasted good and was at a median price for the area. read more

A nice brunch spot with nice decor and easy parking. No wait on a Monday morning at opening but still decently brisk business. Service was fine.

Nightingale is such a cute brunch place to eat and catch up with friends! It's a small spot but we made reservations in advance. It's pretty much a Thai fusion restaurant that has a brunch menu , and a Thai menu. We ordered Crying tiger that came with rice and eggs, pad thai, and a lomo saltado burrito. All were pretty big portions and very filling . The interior of restaurant is beautiful and authentically pleasing, with comfortable seats. They also have great coffee drinks and specialty milk teas. All their food looked yummy, I'd come back to try other dishes ! read more

The good: They take reservations. They have indoor and outdoor seating areas. They have cute pink and white outdoor umbrellas. I got the Cambodian oxtail noodle soup from the chef's special menu ($22), nam tok (waterfall) and fried tofu triangles as an appetizer. I also got a peach iced tea (huge volume!). The oxtail soup was great and I loved the fat and soft noodles. It was very much like pho without the beansprouts. It was my favorite dish. I loved all of the lime, jalapeno, raw onion, cilantro and green onion they gave. It was a super filling meal. I loved the crunch on the fried tofu and how it wasn't too greasy. The dishes came out quickly and were garnished with pretty orchids. The bad: The faux flowers aren't as nice for ambience for they make for cute photos. The oxtail noodle soup was definitely more expensive than an average bowl of pho. The nam tok had delicious flavors but was too salty. It needed a lot of rice to balance it. The rice was also on the dry side. I wish it were stickier. The interesting: The menu is a bit all over the place. There's a breakfast menu with burritos, omelettes, pancakes and chilaquiles. There's the lunch menu with Thai foods. Then there's the acai menu which is BOGO on weekdays (except Tuesdays they're closed). It looked delicious (especially the $19 strawberry Dubai chocolate one). You order at the counter. The inside had balloons setup and a dessert table. I wasn't sure if it was for a special event they hosted or if they are always set up like that. read more

A few fabulous Elites gathered at Nightingale for Sunday Brunch. The picturesque drinks, charming scenery, and cozy atmosphere was the allure. The menu features Thai-inspired dishes, classic American fare, and creative offerings. There is a wall dedicated to Veuve Clicquot and select cocktails are available too. We sat at a high top near the entrance, which was the perfect spot to people watch (and dog watch too). Three Espresso Martinis and a latte kicked off our brunch. We were impressed with the cute "Good Morning" messages that graced the top of our beverages. Each one was different. The Espresso Martini was smooth and went down easily. It was one of the better ones I've had. Our food order consisted of: Fruity Pebble French Toast, Mixed Berry Parfait, Bacon, Egg, & Cheese Sandwich with a side of Potato Wedges, & Lomo Saltado Omelet. In terms of presentation, the Fruity Pebble French Toast was the winner! (It was also yummy!) I'm sure the other restaurant patrons got a kick out of watching a group of Yelpers walking around the table taking pictures from every angle. We ended our lovely day with some bubbly--Wycliff Brut & Strawberry Bellini--and raised a toast to friendships, happiness, & good health. *Ample parking in the lot. *Located across from Old Navy on the other side of the fountain and a few feet from Solitas. read more

Cute Thai-brunch fusion place located in Bella Terra. We ordered the Thai crab omelette and chorizo burrito and both were very tasty. The omelette wasn't exactly authentic but had the core essence that made sense in a fusion context. The burrito was really tasty and the salsa that accompanied it took it to the next level. There was even a table that had complimentary fruits! Overall, great brunch place that I would visit again if I was in the area. read more

As soon as I enter, I was happily greeted by the hanging flowers and balloon arches, that were all decorative and pretty but not immersive, I was not taken to the top floor of Paris Hilton's bubbly champagne flute. Like, the restaurant was cute to the max, but the max did not hit the chord of garden in full Spring bloom, decorated for a princesses sixth birthday party, the max hit more the tone of a high school gym that was decorated for prom and the committee who developed the space had access to a closet of wonderfully forgotten relics that saw better heyday parties but with enthusiasm and hours invested the committee made the space picture ready. If I were the parent of one of the members of that prom committee I would be proud of the effort. The break in charming identity was most precent when one goes to the sole restroom of the place. The dining room is almost fully covered in joyous color and texture, and then when ones to the restroom, one walks this common hallway (yes, that I clipped). it has a brown floral arrangement in a corner but it is more an attempt that falls flat than a punch of elegance, especially since it has one of those poles that holds ropes in clubs. And the bathroom is not decorated in a cute way, either. it does, however, have chipped paint, maybe ripped, walls, that suggest that the cute air of the place did not embrace the bathroom, it was concentrated in an area, and the glitter did not reach the powder room. But still, where the place had the most flair of flower and balloon was an eye-bakery, the white silhouette of a Nightgale was lovely in its simplicity, and the share plate was fit for a tea party all pink with blue branches and florals. On the other hand, when I asked for a to go order it was a regular plastic bag, and the water cups were plastic, and the coffee I ordered was on a to go cup. So you see, even in post analysis of bite, I cannot see past the fog of confusion. But, I can say, that what I remember most, or what I chose to remember the most, is the cute of it all. What I can attest was a double win was the service and the food. When I went, they had a breakfast. The sign read, "Enjoy. Complimentary Breakfast bar" that was available to dine-in guests only, as a show of gratitude for customers who patronize small business. My immediate thought was now I can enjoy maybe only a coffee and eat these many breakfast treats, and chocolates, and other sweet things. In fact, before I sat down, I grabbed a plate and put nuts on top. I did three plates of these nuts throughout the meal. I grabbed Ronnie the last small cup of strawberry shortcake, before someone else grabbed it. I took several packaged items and place them in the plastic bag I gave them. Did I abuse the breakfast bar? Perhaps. But it was inviting, it was there, and I felt like the purpose of this place was to invite engagement, so I was brave enough to accept hospitality. Did I put my feet up on the couch on the first visit, again, perhaps, but I felt like the restaurant put a pink cushion on the edge of the sofa, so who is really to blame--- the one who invites with indulgence or the one who accepts with shame abandoned? One of the many lovely staff members said that me enjoying myself was the "goal" so the answer is clear. Oh yes, the service was on point, and offered care, that made the pink of the place shine a bit brighter, like the glow of a good witches staff. The food was the real glow of this place though. Ronny ordered the cinnamon toast cereal banana foster, and it confused my brain in a wonderful way. I have eaten Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal before, my mind recognizes it, but in this dish, I chewed the milk, and the cereal together, and also enjoyed the fostered bread, it was all new and snapped my neurons into detective mode. One of the items in the breakfast (that I enjoyed like a bull in a cupcake shop) were Danish cookies and I used one of them to sop the cinnamon milk glaze remains, like I do with parker house rolls and really good steak remains. I sopped because not doing so would be letting joy inducing food go to waste. I drank the Biscotti Latte and it was a dream in a to-go cup. My mind was newly confused I was sipping cookies that I chewed in days prior. It was sweetness embellished with cookie crumbs. It was a pleasure to enjoy because it interrupted the meal so it could become old friends enjoying exciting and also comforting food. We were pals in a Parisian cafe, we were pals in a Tokyo alley sharing Avocado Tempura (that was lightly fried to crisp delicacy, while the avocado taste was present) while we sat in crates that were decorated just so pretty, and most of us we were pals living our best life for the span of the meal. I did not want to get up and go, eventually we had to. read more

I'll start with the good. I was looking forward to the food here, as I had read great reviews about it. They have American brunch as well as Thai food. We stuck with the Thai food and got the red curry, the papaya salad, and shaking beef. I thought the food was good. The red curry was a bit bland compared to other red curries I've had though. The papaya salad was great. The shaking beef was tender. I also got a green Thai tea and that was good, but too sweet. I should've ordered it a littleless sweet though. Now onto the bad. I arrived a few minutes before my group and was promptly seated. However, nobody came to check on me or ask me if I wanted to order something. 30 minutes after I sat down and about 15-20 minutes after the rest of the group came, they came and took drink orders. I get that they were busy, but I thought that was a little crazy. Then, we had to constantly flag them down if we wanted attention. We had to flag them down when we wanted to order food. Then again when the red curry came without rice or a spoon. Then again when the dessert didn't come. The whole group was rather disappointed and I'm pretty sure this is the last time any of us will ever go there. read more

I came here at 1:30pm. Food is ordered at the counter and brought to the table. We ordered. After a few mins, I asked if I need a table number. The hostess said no. They know where we are seated. After 30 mins of waiting for food, they told us we have to move (as they were clearing tables). We asked for the status of our food and they said they already gave it to someone. Who?? The large party in front of us. Why? We aren't a part of that party. Apparently we should have told them we were separate. WHY? When I order at Starbucks, I don't specify that I'm NOT with the person in front of me. I arrived separately. I ordered separately. I paid separately. So they assumed we were part of a party of 9 and gave our food to them. MUST BE A RACIAL THING. We are both Asian and similar in age. Annoying, but whatever... Now it's almost 2pm and we're hungry. Can you make it now? NO THE KITCHEN IS CLOSED (at 2pm)... but they close at 3pm?? So you accidentally gave my order away and now refuse to remake it so you can close early? They did give me a refund but they were rude and blamed us for their mistake. **HORRIBLE SERVICE** read more
