    French toast entree
    Teagan T.

    Upon our return and ordering something with eggs, our nest has sold me into hopefully becoming a semi-regular. From the refillable drip to their specialty lattes, the menu.. I can't wait to come back and try their burritos, sammiches, bowls and everything else I can get my grubby hands on. The omelette was properly fluffy with generous mushrooms, if that's what you'd choose. The roast of choice comes toasted and buttered. There's also a little tiny side salad that I thoroughly enjoyed. Attentive service and plenty of seating at this joint. So many choices other than the French toast and they have different specials depending on the day!

    16 oz Rib Eye steak

    Three hungry brothers walks into the establishment for the very first time. Each orders the 16 oz Rib Eye Steak with Chimichurry sauce. It was so juicy, moist, dripping with flavor. Undeniably the best steak ever. It came with eggs and potato and toast. So good. We highly suggest trying this place out. Plenty of parking. Service was on point. Compliments to the chef/s. Super clean and comfortable. We will be back. No doubt.

    My travel scheduled has kept me away from Our nest so had to stop by while I was in Brea. Best breakfast spot in Brea and surrounding areas. I love the carnitas Machaca hash. Sooooo good. Perfectly cooked and comes with rice and beans. The green salsa has the best flavor. Service is fast and friendly. TVs are a nice touch for your morning cup of coffee. Probably my favorite meal here. Always a clean friendly atmosphere here.

    I'd been to their Fullerton eatery and enjoyed it so, when the opportunity arose, I jumped at the chance to meet a friend and go eat at this location with the intent of having breakfast for lunch. The interior of this place is much larger than Fullerton and, upon entering, were told to sit anywhere we desired. Just outside the entrance they had a board proclaiming their specials of the day. After looking over the many options on the menu I opted to order a special I spotted on that board: raspberry & lemon curd french toast! While awaiting my meal I ordered a cup of regular ol' black coffee. Believe me when I say that cup of coffee was a fantastic one; they have superb coffee here. My french toast was amazing. Thick-cut & fried brioche bread with a magnificent exterior crunch yet soft inside, served with lemon curd and raspberry puree along with a dollop of homemade whipped cream. Definitely award-winning french toast. My friend, a vegetarian, ordered a different french toast and was envious of mine. Hers was a bit mushy and came with a side of bacon and sausage which she promptly handed over to me. The sausage was very flavorful and the bacon was meaty, simultaneously crisp and chewy, and very much appreciated by me. I loved my meal and was disappointed my dining partner had a less stellar experience. I guess it all depends on what you order.

    I would've given five stars, but since they charged the wrong cards to the wrong checks, I'm giving four. First of all make sure to check to make sure what ur charged and what your original check is matches. The food is very delicious, the seating is pretty open, a lot bigger than what it looks like from the outside. There are a lot of people doing a lot of different things at once so it seems easy for them to juggle things wrongly.

    $16 BREAKFAST TAQUITOS: not fav dish (slightly dry). Comes w/ avocado & green salsa, not enough. Eggs are FRESH! Quality ingredients.

    PARKING (5/5): It's a big parking lot that they share with all the restaurants in the plaza. Shouldn't have an issue finding parking. All free of course! Gotta love OC. AMBIANCE (5/5): It's a BIG restaurant with a TON of seating! They have a small patio area that makes it feel indoor/outdoor. Clean and modern decor. SERVICE (4/5): Came on a weekday morning for breakfast so it was empty. No one at the hostess desk when you walk in because the foot traffic is so light during the weekdays. But they are keeping an eye out and prompt on greeting & seating everyone that walks in. Quick to take orders and check to make sure all the food is ok and you don't need anything further. FOOD (4/5): I've only been to the PLACENTIA location, which I absolutely loved! But they closed it so I've been dying to try the Brea location! $8 LA REINA LATTE (+$0.75 for OAT MILK): this is the most popular latte. It's a Spanish latte, very delicious! Can't go wrong ordering this! $16 BREAKFAST TAQUITOS: this wasn't my favorite dish here. I know there's a ton of better options, but I just really felt like taquitos. It's filled with turkey chorizo (slightly dry). It comes with some avocado salsa and green salsa on the plate. The green salsa isn't enough for the 4 taquitos being served, they let you order more salsa for (+$1 extra), which is cheap given the delicious homemade salsa, but I think more should be included with the dish. The eggs are FRESH! The yolks were so orange, which you know means the freshest ingredients! $23 LOCO MOCO: a solid dish! The GRAVY IS SO GOOD! The most important part of the dish is the gravy! Served over fried rice with fresh eggs, this was a perfect dish. OVERALL (4/5): I ordered wrong here getting the breakfast taquitos. BUT, I love this restaurant because they use the freshest ingredients and take great quality in their food. This will be in my rotation of top breakfast spots in the area. Can't wait to try all of the dishes and I want to come back here for their lunch/dinner options because it looks AMAZING! Highly recommend.

    This sign made me laugh!

    Seems like everything in this plaza has "Nest" in it: Our Nest (the restaurant), The Nest (hair salon), Skin by The Nest (facials and such). Imagine by confusion when I arrived and I was confused about where I was supposed to meet up with my friend for brunch. Not sure if all these businesses are operated by the same family, but just be aware of which door you need to go into. Hahaha Our Nest is super cute inside - the decor is modern and has an open and relaxing ambiance. There is a separate area in the front that would be good for larger parties or special gatherings. I like that their menu has so much variety! From breakfast burritos to steaks, and benedicts to bowls. I think they have a collab with something called Rudy's because they have a list of Mexican items that take up half the menu on the back. If you want some brunchy cocktails and bubbles, they have those too! They are kid friendly with various kids meal options available. There's truly something for everyone here! My friend enjoyed the chilaquiles burrito and I had the B.A.B.S Bowl. Both of our dishes were good. The burrito came with something called menguiche which we initially thought was sour cream, but turns out it was a cheese based sauce. For some reason I thought the base of my B.A.B.S bowl was going to be quinoa, but it was essentially a spinach salad with chicken, eggs, and a variety of veggies. The quinoa was just sprinkled on top as a garnish. The dish was colorful, fresh and tasty - everything I like on a plate. We had a couple servers who would come by to help us, so it was a team effort to get us everything we wanted and needed. I kind of like that method, as we didn't have to wait for one particular server to help us in case they are busy. Overall a great experience, I'll be back!

    Outstanding food! Had the chilaquiles/French toast/breakfast burrito. All were top notch. Even thought the restaurant was bustling, the staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. My soda was never fully empty. Definitely recommend

    Pancake stack
    Amanda K.

    Cute spot-busy on a Sunday for brunch at 11am. Glad we made a reservation. They were unfortunately out of gluten free bread so I got my omelet with corn tortillas-which were great. My friends ordered pancake stacks and they were HUGE! They had plenty of leftovers to take home. The bathroom was clean. Service was friendly. Our waters were empty a little longer than we would've liked at times but they did come back around. They did not have decaf coffee. I would return!

    First time trying this beautiful restaurant in Brea I meet my friends and the service is a top notch. The food was so delicious. The coffee was hot and good. The ambience was so relaxing. The music level is perfect clean neat restaurant. I absolutely love it and the portion. It's big. I couldn't even finish my food and definitely I recommend this beautiful restaurant. The owners came and chatted with us ,very nice welcoming smile make me feel happy. Thank you for all your generosity .

    Veggie Omelette | IG @moniquedao

    I first tried Our Nest when they were at their Fullerton location, which has since closed--so I was a little bummed. Luckily, I found out they opened a new spot in Brea, and I was excited to check it out. I ordered the Wedge Salad, which was good overall, but it came with a bit too much ranch dressing and ended up soaking a lot of the salad. In hindsight, I probably should've asked for the dressing on the side. I also wasn't a big fan of the bacon bits--they were dry and not very crispy. Next time, I'd likely skip those and ask for extra fried onions instead. It's also like $22 which I think is a little pricey for a block of lettuce. My boyfriend ordered the veggie omelette, which came with a crispy hashbrown that I enjoyed. At first, he thought another side was included and chose mini pancakes, but later found out they were an extra $3. It would've been helpful if that upcharge was mentioned ahead of time. On a brighter note, their Spanish Latte was quite good. I just wish they offered a few more flavor options.

    My bf and I were on the hunt for a solid brunch spot in Brea and Our Nest caught our eye - and it delivered! We were not expecting such an amazing meal - the dishes were well prepared and portion sizes were generous and we barely finished both our plates. Service was great and it wasn't too busy when we walked in on a Saturday around noon. We hope to return to explore the rest of the menu! This time around we ordered: - Popo Toast (5/5): Wanted a clean bite and this delivered. Eggs, avocado, spicy tomatoes, carnitas, and bread - what more could we ask for. Simple ingredients that still pack a satisfying punch. The only potential con was how difficult it was to cut into the toasts - Chilaquiles Burrito (5/5): This was a BIG burrito and we struggled to finish it! The filet mignon was juicy which was a welcome surprise - I typically find filet mignon too dry for my liking. Loved the provided condiments with the burrito (we went with medium green). The pico de gallo was spicy but refreshingly delicious and cut through the heavy flavors. We loved it!

    Every dish I've had here has been excellent. I'm working my way through the menu. The service is professional and the presentation of the food is perfect. I like the variety of the extensive menu and I'm surprised they can keep the quality so high on every dish. You will not be disappointed. The menu prices do seem high for the area. I can't spend $50 for breakfast for two every day but I'll try to ignore that and treat myself once in a while. Lunch is good too. If you have a choice of potato may I recommend Our Potatoes which are roasted potatoes lightly seasoned.

I loved the cheese crusted tortilla on their tacos, and the cueva taco was my fave out of the four! The steak was dry so it was my least fave but the Korean and birria taco were also yummy! Nice way to sample their different tacos! Their guava agua Fresca was a refreshing drink to go with my tacos. My friend ordered their cheese enchiladas in their cream red sauce. She said it was different from any red sauce she has ever had but she said she enjoyed her enchiladas. Service was attentive and friendly. Each server checked in on us regularly.

We visited on a weekday evening for dinner and found that the restaurant had largely retained the same look and layout from its days as TAPS. The restaurant was nearly empty, with only a couple of other occupied tables during our visit. While the menu offered a variety of options, it looked limited and, more importantly, significantly overpriced. Signature rolls ranged from $24 to $26, and even a simple pork-and-rice dish was priced at $25. We ordered the Chicken Tequila Cream Pasta, the Dragon Roll, and two fish tacos. Unfortunately, this is where the experience took a disappointing turn. The Dragon Roll, despite its premium price, looked very basic, consisting mostly of rice with very little filling. The quality and presentation reminded me of sushi from a grocery store counter. The Chicken Tequila Cream Pasta was essentially chicken Alfredo with red bell peppers, served with a slice of basic buttered toast. The fish tacos were another letdown. For $16, the plate included only two small tacos with no rice, beans, or side dishes, just the tacos themselves. To make the experience even more unpleasant, there were no complimentary appetizers, such as bread or edamame, to enjoy while waiting for the meal. The food overall was underwhelming and did not justify the prices being charged. The one bright spot was the service, which was friendly and attentive throughout our visit. Overall, Geisha failed to deliver the quality or value its prices suggest. Save yourself the time and money and visit virtually any other restaurant in downtown Brea instead. You'll thank me later.
