    Shannon the server made the view even better. Coming here at 3;30 was the key! Had the place to ourselves, highly recommend!

    Not a huge fan of the food here, but the views are nice. Parking is on site, but there is a $10 valet fee. Once seated, you do enjoy the view. My friends and I dined at night so we were able to enjoy the city lights and even see the Disneyland fireworks. We ordered a lot of different things like the tuna over crispy rice, which was good. Coconut shrimp, which was OK. I ordered the tomato and burata salad, which was not good at all. The salad came with peaches that I was expecting for it to be grilled peaches, but these were canned peaches that were put in the salad that did not pair well with the dish. We also tried the butter fish, which was good, the short rib and the chicken. We ordered drinks, which I believe is what they're really known for. Very sugary for our taste but if you like sweet drinks, they have plenty to offer. The service was OK there were times in the night where we were waiting for our server to come around so we can ask for more water or extra napkins.

    Chicken and waffles

    I'd like to point out how amazing the bar staff are. Karla, Matt, Scott, Sean, Beau, Cassidy....even Tommy! I'm here pretty often as I usually stop by after work for a meal and drink. The food, to me, has always been great. From chicken and waffles to their filet mignon and everything in between, I've never had any complaints. Food is flavorful and plentiful. You cannot beat the view and setting. Your views extend from the mountains to the sea, and the interior is tastefully decorated. Top notch place for any reason! BONUS: Did I mention how great Karla is?

    Went here for a special occasion, it requires valet parking so that was new for me. It is a very beautiful restaurant with beautiful scenery. I was seating in one of the booth seats away from the windows, but it was still a nice sight. The food and service was great, the food we had ordered was delicious and we had no issues whatsoever. A great place for dinner and for special occasions.

    Whiskey sour and this amazing bread they brought out

    What a wonderful restaurant! I brought my son here to celebrate his 40th birthday and they did not disappoint. From the excellent service to the unbelievable food and drinks and sitting outside watching the sunset - too wonderful for words. It's worth the cost, you get what you pay for and everything was amazing. Adam was our waiter and was fantastic. He heard me say it was my son's birthday and came out with a beautiful birthday cake surprise without me even asking. Make a reservation and definitely pay the extra fee ($20) to guarantee a seat on the patio if you want to get views of the sunset.

    Smoked Salmon Benedict
    Nana K.

    Views, views, views! What a beautiful restaurant. Elegant, sophisticated, and upscale vibes. Sitting outdoors for brunch with girlfriends, we can see Orange County from the top of the hills. Beautiful! I ordered their Salmon Benedict. While the taste was fully there, the smoked salmon was a bit over cooked. I still thoroughly enjoyed my dish. Their breakfast potatoes are delicious! Cooked perfectly with a nice crisp and flavor. Service was absolutely wonderful. Our server (sorry did not catch the name), was so accommodating and patient with us. We may have stayed a bit later after the bill was already paid, but he did not rush us out. Thank you so much for the wonderful service. Overall enjoyed my visit to Orange Hill today. It was my first time here for brunch, and would come back again. Great atmosphere. Excellent service. Variety of menu options to choose from. Cheers, Orange Hill!

    Whole Snapper 10/10
    Sam T.

    Good food with a great view! The big winners were the steak and whole snapper. The salads are large and can be easily shared (need more dressing). Our party had mixed reviews for the mashed potatoes and mac and cheese. The service was standard, nothing above and beyond. *no free general parking- valet only $10*

    jenn l.

    This place was a mix of super fancy and also casual. I felt confused walking up bc some people were dressed in formal outfits and others were in baggy jeans. So I guess I advise you dress for your occasion! I got the prime rib which was really good. The brussel sprouts were also so tasty and the complimentary cornbread was also very good. I got a drink and the total came out to around $100. The view was great and beautiful at night. Parking is valet only, so just keep that in mind before coming!

    Last minute Sunday breakfast and it was beautiful! All the food was delicious and everyone was great! From valet, hostess, servers...

    Ignore the reviews this place deserves a 5 star honestly Im surprised it doesn't have a 5 star We drove all the way from Palm Springs to eat here and let me tell you the service was a 10/10 thanks to David he made our service experience really good he took care of us any time we needed something and kept making us laugh and smile so thanks David The food was amazing from the calamari with that sauce it comes with 10/10 then we ordered our steaks perfectly cooked like we like it all kinds of good flavors the mac and cheese was 10/10 the mash potatoes was 10/10 and the fries 10/10 The views of this place left us speechless it was perfect for a nice romantic dinner , my girl loved it for pictures so ladies be prepared to take a lot of pictures Other than that 10/10 we would for sure come back

    Gorgeous restaurant inside and out. As soon as you exit your vehicle the stroll to the front door has relaxing streams and a huge fireplace. We checked in at the front in the near empty restaurant and yet had to wait around 10 minutes before seated at a nice booth. I'm not sure why we didn't get a window or patio table in the empty restaurant but our booth was comfortable and still had a view. Brunch menu had a lot of tasty options. I ordered the smoked salmon Benedict with a side order of Belgium waffle. Also their Dubai chocolate espresso martini. This breakfast was perfection. I absolutely loved it. One of the best smoked salmon benedicts I have had. Even the side of potatoes and roasted tomatoes were amazing. The waffle tasted like a combination of a churro and funnel cake. Pure heaven. I've never tried the trendy Dubai chocolate bar but my martini captured the essence of what I have seen in pictures. Legit or not it was delicious. My wife had a pineapple cocktail I can't remember the name of that she thought was delicious. My wife ordered the prime rib. The slab was so massive it completely eclipsed the side dishes it was lying on! It was ok. She thought it was bland and the few bites I tried were ok, not something I would order.. It was oddly chewy for prime rib. My wife took most of it home and doctored it up. It came with mashed potatoes and broccolini. Our waitress was very friendly when we saw her but she was MIA most of the meal. I had an issue with a few items not matching the price on the menu and didn't notice until after I paid. I let the assistant manager Ray know and he's going to get it fixed. Double check your receipt.

    We had a beautiful family dinner celebrating my nephew's college graduation. The restaurant had a gorgeous scenic view, and the service was excellent from start to finish. We were seated quickly, and once seated, menus were brought right away and we were already ordering drinks and appetizers. Even with a party of ten, our server handled everything with ease and professionalism. The food came out fast and did not disappoint -- everything was absolutely delicious. Orange Hill is truly a beautiful and enchanting spot for a special celebration.

    What time does the Mother's Day Brunch end?

    What time is brunch on the weekends?

    Good evening. Brunch begins at 10:00 on Saturday and Sunday. We offer some fabulous food options from our a la carte menu. We also have bottomless mimosas for $30.00. Reservations can be made online or you can call the restaurant directly at… Read more

    What is the "Dine-In" definition? Do ordering the food at at the bar area at Happy Hour considered "Dine-In" ?? I have a coupon $15 off of Dine-in.

    Our experience would indicate no. Read the fine print on the coupon. I t most likely reads not valid for Happy Hour. They are looking for customers to "dine in" for lunch or dinner in the dining room.

    Does this place charge to bring your own birthday cake? I tried calling them and no luck...

    As of December they do not charge. I brought one for my birthday and they even lit the candles I brought! Great service!

    Do you have to make reservations?

    Reservations are highly recommended. Due to the popularity of the restaurant, it is a very good idea to make a reservation any time you come to Orange Hill. The lounge is first come first serve and you will not need a reservation to enjoy our… Read more

    Does Brunch offers dinner menu or only brunch menus?

    They only offer the brunch menu during that time

    How much is valet?

    9 dollars

    What is the price range?

    Entree's are $25 on up. It's worth it. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu.

    Anyone know if all my guests need to arrive at the same time to be seated or can the "on time" people get started with drinks while we wait? I tried calling but line just rings.

    We had about 7 guests and they said 6 had to be there in order for us to be seated, but since it was a surprise birthday for one of our guests, they said we could be seated as we arrived. So you would have to confirm with them

    Hello. Are we able to bring our own wine bottle? If yes, are we able to.open our own bottle without paying a cork fee? Paying someone to open the bottle for $25, thats crazy!

    Yes. We brought a bottle of champagne. We were charged a $35 corkage fee, so the price is pretty high in my opinion.

    What is the automated tip amount for a party of 14?

    18%

    Does anyone know if Orange Hill Restaurant is still open? I've called multiple times the last 3 days, left a phone message and sent an email request for a reservation through their website (I did get email confirmation, but still no response)

    Yes, still open. You should try calling right at 4 pm when they open.

    What's the current price for valet In 2024?

    9 dollars plus tax and they ask for tip LOL

    I will be going to dinner next Friday, is there open parking?

    Valet parking $9 if you want to self park, you can do it at the bottom of the hill but it's worth it if you have a cake to bring and you're wearing heels

    Do they currently have happy hour? what time?

    Yes. I believe it's from 4-6.

    Is there a kids menu?

    Yes there is.

    To get the best outside view, Should I come during the day or night?

    Personally, it's the night lights that look beautiful from that height. Not to mention the sunsets! Superb!

    What is the dinner dress attire like? Is it dressed up or casual?

    Smart casual or business casual is appropriate. Later reservations seem more dressed-up, but the most formal attire I've typically seen is cocktail dress, or sport coat with jeans/casual pants. Too casual: shorts of any kind, team logos,… Read more

There is a crispy shell, two different sauces, and condiments to add with it. There is a lot of different textures and the meat was juicy. The smoked salmon flatbread wasn't as good, it looks very colorful and pretty, but I didnt think the flavors went together very well. I like the smokiness but the salmon wasn't umami enough to justify mixing in caviar and avocado and arugula that would normally pair well with beef. Finally, had the chicken tinga skillet, which had flavor in the sauce, but the chicken itself was just ok.

Making reservations is recommended since the restaurant is small but making it wasn't too difficult. We were impressed by how cute it was. It had a dark European vibe which we loved. It's definitely intimate and great for small groups, not so much larger ones. We brought in our own wine to enjoy with a corkage free. We got seated right away and our nice waiter gave us great recommendations and answered our many questions. We ended up ordering a lot between all three of us but that's just how we roll. We started with their bread & ham butter, pork pate, and burrata. The pork pate didn't come with bread so we were glad our waiter recommended it. The pate was really good and was different. It was on the dense side but still spreadable and full of flavor. The burrata had peaches, cherries and pinenuts. It was different but in a good way and we also ate that with the bread. It was more bland and nice with the pate. For dinner we got their steak tartare, mushrooms, chicken, and pork. The steak tartare was on the saltier side which I didn't mind. It was actually a large portion and sat on some toast. The mushrooms were a hit. They were braised with an onsen egg on top to mix. The pork was exceptional. It was flavorful, tender, and cooked to perfection. I highly recommend it for protein. My least favorite dish was the chicken, which was actually super tender and cooked just right. I just didn't like the sauce taste and I am not a fan of beans. We ended the night with some basque cheesecake which was not too sweet and delicious. What an incredible meal. The pricing we thought was good for the quality and what you get. Some of the portions were smaller but good for us. The pork did have a 40 minute wait to make which our waiter told us. Service was amazing and the food came out as it was made. The restaurant is small so reservations is recommended. They have limited parking and there is also street parking around.

We call them and give them a heads up and wondered if there was still availability. Melody was pretty transparent and said that there is a different menu between two and five ---a more limited menu. She asked if there was anyway we could get there before 2 o'clock. Long story short, she was super gracious and told the cooks that we would get there a little after two and they would make us something from the lunch menu. Isa was our waitress, and she was phenomenal! Great sense of humor, very transparent about the different menu items. I got a copal and it was fantastic! Smoky and spicy, but not too spicy. We started our late lunch with Caesar salad, Sopa Limon, Seabreem fish dish. We also got the cubano. We were so stuffed by the end of it, but everything was phenomenal. The Caesar salad was a great way to start the meal, but after a couple of bites of it once we had the other dishes, it didn't stand out as much. We probably would've ordered the same thing all over again, with the exception of the Caesar salad (although it was still good!) Sopa Limon had a very unique bone broth flavor. It was a little sweet. So amazing. Seabreem dish - the vegetables played an important part in the flavors! The fries and the aïoli for the Cubano was amazing. The Cubano was excellent, but was a big serving. We sat outdoors, but if I had to have my choice, I would prefer indoors because the ambience indoors is similar to a resort. It reminds us of a place up in the Bay Area called Luna in Campbell.

They also made the first Paella I've ever liked, and their Lamb is the most delicious I've ever tasted. There is a dessert that I hope they never stop serving. The Kougin Amman ice cream sandwich is a genius pairing, especially because they just might make the best pastry in the world. I love the up close and personal approach, and the ingredients are incredible. A fun little splurge if you're in the area.

My husband has a wheat allergy and she was so sweet to help with accommodating him as well as offering tasting when trying to decide between seltzer or a cider. Coctails and Food were A++ I will dream about their Tomato Addiction until i have it again! Bursting with flavors, sourdough was fresh and had the right amount of crunch. Melty brie and the garlicy tomatoes married together perfectly. Will be returning for that alone! Santa Ana Winds was yummy with the perfect amount of coconutty flavor. Nightbloom had a beautiful presentation with a very unique flavor, so delish!!

The only downside is parking can be a little difficult during lunch time. One of the things I like about this place is when you walk through the door you already have a warm and fuzzy feeling. Almost like you're going into someone else's home for a meal. Lots of wood. Lots of dim lining. The place is very upscale without feeling stuffy. If you are going there for lunch, I highly recommend you get the burger off the menu. I am not kidding. It is one of the best tasting hamburgers I've had in a very long time. They cook it perfectly and their french fries are seasoned to perfection. Wait staff is top-notch, they definitely take care of your table while not hovering over you. One thing of note, they have great iced tea. Bottom line? If you are in town and looking for a good lunch that won't break the bank, I highly recommend public legacy, and make sure you get the burger!

    My boyfriend and I came here for an anniversary dinner and it did not disappoint. The food and…read moredrinks were delicious! We got the butter board for an appetizer. They bread was perfectly soft as if it just came out of the oven. The honey and butter was a great complement to the bread. For our main we got the seafood risotto and NY Strip. Both were excellent. The drinks were very refreshing and strong. Our server was very attentive and provided great service throughout the night! We even got a complimentary dessert for our anniversary! Will definitely be coming back here in the future!

    I have a comment. The one star is to get your attention. Once you acknowledge receipt, I will take…read morethis bad review down. Someone has to say something. For context, I am a trained 5-star trained server. I've worked in different environments throughout the years. I realize that each restaurant/bar/club has its own rules. However, something is universal...the customer experience. This is in a Hyatt Hotel. The standards an especially high. I have been here a few times now (I love locally) and, every time, I've noticed the same thing happening and it's distracting. There's one constant in this place that seems to be cultural (as in acceptable/accepted company policy). The staff talks to one-another about their life, their parties, their weekends. It's loud. It overpowers the music, my thoughts, my peace. Franky, it affects my calm enjoyment of the place negatively. Once again, I love this place. Please be more discreet. It's really annoying.

My husband and I…read morecame here for date night and had a great experience~ Vaca is located next to south coast, interior has tall ceilings and have a small indoor and outdoor seating. They have Spanish menu items, several tapas and main dishes. We got 4 wines and both loved with whites and reds! La bola (8.5/10)-the meat inside was delicious wasn't overly crispy, sauce on top was too much but a classed dish Pani puri (9/10)-interesting concept scallop was delicious and sauce was rich, shell was crispy Cauliflower (7/10)-bit too salty and rich but they give you a good portion Steak (7.5/10)-we asked for medium but it was more in medium rare, good quality but small for price Churro (9/10)-cant beat a piping hot churro with chocolate sauce portion not too large Our server was friendly and vibe was classy Would love to try the paella my next visit!

The tapas are perfect for sharing, with standout flavors that make it hard to pick favorites, and the paella is worth the wait. The atmosphere is lively and energetic without feeling pretentious, making it a great spot for a date night, celebration, or dinner with friends. Service was attentive, knowledgeable, and helped guide us through the menu. Chef Amar Santana's influence is clear throughout the restaurant, and it's easy to see why Vaca has built such a strong reputation. Not the cheapest meal in Costa Mesa, but the quality, creativity, and overall experience make it well worth it. I'll definitely be back.
