    Tortilla soup - ok
    John S.

    Admittedly, it was the CDM Christmas Walk, so things were a little crazy, but I wasn't too impressed with this spot. I know it gets a lot of hype on Yelp, but for me it landed squarely in the average category. The location on PCH is definitely cool, and the outdoor patio is a nice touch, but the food just didn't wow me. Service was on the slower side, and they were already out of the cilantro dressing at 1:00 PM, which felt a bit early to be out of anything. Overall, fine for a quick stop if you're already in the area, but not a place I'd rush back to.

    After a morning workout on the beach--because nothing says holiday spirit like burning calories before eating--we landed at my boyfriend's favorite breakfast spot. We walked in and spotted an open table outside, perfect in this beautiful So Cal weather ... we trully are spoiled. While I secured our seats, he ventured in to place our order. It's a popular spot but not very big, a cafe, so be prepared to wait or opt for take out. Today we got lucky and alfresco we brunched. While we waited for our order, we were treated to the fresh juices as our choice for breakfast beverages which were in full holiday attire: The orange juice was solid--bright, refreshing, like sunshine in December. The raspberry lemonade was bursting with actual berries, like they literally emptied a bag of holiday jewels into it. Our order of matching vegetarian breakfast burritos arrive, and let's just say Santa himself would swap cookies for one of these. Warm, hearty, perfectly wrapped like a gourmet present. Eggs, veggies, and that just-right seasoning... the kind of breakfast burrito that makes you feel like you've made good life choices ... about breakfast anyway. Perfect stop after breaking a sweat ... unfortunately we had a packed day so won't be enjoying this years Christmas Walk but drove by and saw all the preparations for those who will be strolling the prettiest beach town around. Rose Bakery Cafe was festive, delicious, and remains on our "nice list." Although, just becasue it's nice, doesn't mean there isn't depth in the options . . . next time will try some of the more "naughtier" treats, the bakery smelled heavenly.

    California Burrito
    Brooke F.

    Literally my favorite place on the planet. I made sure I go here every single time I'm home in Newport. The California burrito has my whole entire heart This place is what I describe as a must go when you're in town. Try a smoothie, you won't regret it.

    I really want to like this place because my last name is Rose and that's pretty cool, but the pastries here are just not good.I have had a decent apple fritter here once though. I'll give it another shot and try something other than bakery items someday. With all that said, and I can't believe this is a redeeming about, I did only pay $8 for these and somehow that feels like a deal.

    Deluxe Burrito

    We stopped by Rose Bakery in Corona del Mar on Labor Day. It was definitely busy, the line was long, but we were lucky enough to grab a table right away. After ordering, there was a bit of a wait (totally expected given the holiday crowd). We tried the burrito, but honestly, it didn't wow us. It lacked flavor and I probably wouldn't order it again. On the other hand, the Meat Lover's Skillet was really good! hearty, flavorful, and definitely the highlight of the meal. Overall, I'd say Roses is good, but not amazing. It wouldn't be my first choice for a burrito in the area, but I'd come back to try more of their breakfast options. Worth a visit if you're nearby, just don't expect to be blown away.

    Ugh I need an intervention. I still think they have one of the best breakfast burritos in town if not in the OC. I love that I can pre-order and just go up to the walk up Window and get my order which is promptly made. Today on a Wednesday around 10:30 it wasn't too busy. There is some parking out front but it's a tricky little parking lot to get in and out of. Your best parking on the street. Friendly service cool outdoor vibes with some indoor seating as well. Dogs welcome. I just think the burrito taste phenomenal. They really do pack it in with the egg cheese and bacon, which is nice and crispy. And the hash brown is delicious. The real star of the show is the salsa.

    A cafe right on PCH. It's in a great location with scenic outdoor dining, nice breakfast/lunch options, a small parking lot (essential in this location), and nice coffee according to my friend! I ordered the breakfast burrito and was very happy with it. It wasn't as stuffed as my usual breakfast locations, but the bacon was crispy, and the flour tortilla had a nice crunch where they toasted it! The complimentary water was also cold and fresh, something I really appreciate on a hot day.

    Plastic
    Liam `.

    Found a large piece of plastic in the middle of my wife's sandwich. Seriously unacceptable. Thankfully she noticed it before taking a bite, but that could've gone very differently. This kind of quality control issue shouldn't happen.

    California Burrito
    Mckenzie O.

    A must go when in town. California burrito is delicious (I get it with no spinach), coffee is good and smoothies are great as well. Seating inside is small but they have a large patio area. Service is fast as well.

    Eggs Benedict
    Meredith V.

    This place was cute and due the crowd we thought the food would be amazing. My eggs Benedict was way over cooked and had a hard boiled egg consistency , my ham and English muffin were under cooked. It was very disappointing. The line was long and it took a while to get our food so I didn't have time to ask for them to make it again due to time constraints.

    Peach smoothie
    Virginia J.

    This is such a cute cafe! Too bad about the parking situation. Mostly street parking and had to park a few blocks away and walk here. There is indoor and outdoor seating. Indoor seating can feel a but cramped though depending on how busy it is. My friend and I opted to dine in. We were given a number to put on our table and the servers would bring the food to us. I ordered the Rose Benedict with the peach smoothie. Both were delicious!! I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. Too bad about the parking situation or else I would come more often!

    California Burrito
    Kate K.

    I was visiting family in Newport Coast area and they recommended this spot for breakfast/brunch. Parking can be a little tricky if they are busy because its located on the corner. You order at the counter and they bring it out to your table. They have a small inside seating section, but a bigger patio with heaters. It was pretty busy table wise, but we found one on the patio. They move pretty quickly. We got a lot of items- raspberry smoothie, california breakfast burrito, crossiant country sandwich, cronut, chocolate old fashioned donut, fruit cup, and country breakfast burrito. Everything was great, but my favs were the crossiant country sandwich and donuts. The burritos were good but I liked the crossiant sandwiches just a little better. The donuts were so fresh and flavorful. The cronut reminded me of a layered fresh krispy kreme. (Not pictured) The fresh cut fruit and smoothie were also really refreshing. I would absolutely come back here. Overall experience 4.5/5

    Elizabeth Z.

    Awesome donuts. Everything was fresh, service was quick and friendly. Lots of variety in donut flavors and not a single one disappointed. Great stop to start your day.

It wasn't overly sweet like a lot of brunch spots tend to do. The balance was just right, letting the flavors shine without feeling like dessert for breakfast. The blueberries, maple syrup, and cream brought everything together perfectly. The spicy shrimp pasta was equally impressive. It had a great kick to it, but the spice didn't overpower the dish. You could still taste all the flavors of the pasta, shrimp, and sauce. That's a rare thing because too many places mistake heat for flavor. Great Maple got it right. The restaurant was very busy, which is usually a good sign, but despite the crowd, the service never slipped. Our servers were attentive, friendly, and kept everything moving smoothly. If I had one minor complaint, it's that the popularity means you should expect a wait during peak hours. But after eating here, it's easy to understand why it's packed. Excellent food, attentive service, and a brunch experience that's worth coming back for. Human beings may disagree on politics, sports, and whether pineapple belongs on pizza, but Great Maple serving great food feels like one of the easier things to agree on.

And it came from a breakfast joint, which is super rare in and of itself. Having lived in Southern California for many many years, I thought I had seen and experienced just about everything in the way of good places to eat. As I was driving around looking for some breakfast, I stumbled across oeb breakfast. And I am so glad I did. For starters, when you walk through the door, the place is bright and Cherry and has just the right amount of whimsy. It's neatly laid out and everything is in full view. It only took a moment my server to come get me at the front and direct me to a table. Let's talk about the service. Having been in the food service industry, I know what it takes to have a great dining experience. Caesar, who was my waiter, took care of me in a level that I have not seen in a very long time. Personable, gracious, accommodating, and helpful are just a few of the words I would use to describe my experience being served by him. I asked for coffee and water and within moments it arrived on my table. Side note, the coffee is off the chain! It is a brand called Umbria and it is amazing. After scanning the menu, I opted for the beef bulldogi Benedict with the beef Tallow fries. I asked for the fries extra crispy, and ask for my milk to be served with breakfast. If you've read any of my Yelp reviews on breakfast places, you know that that is one of my litmus tests for the accuracy of the order. If I have to ask for my milk after the meal's been delivered, they're not doing their job. Not that I'm picky, for me. It is just a way to determine how good of a listener the server actually is. It didn't take long at all for the food to be delivered. The presentation was absolutely amazing, as we eat with our eyes. First, I have to say that the way the food was plated was definitely a work of art. Once the food was dropped off half of me was going. I wonder if they will remember... And before I could finish my thought Caesar showed back up with the milk. Home run! The food itself was absolutely wonderful, I cannot remember when I have enjoyed a breakfast as much as this one. All the flavors were there, it was perfectly balanced, and was just a pleasant dining experience overall. Bragging on Caesar again, as I was sitting there, the restaurant started to get very busy, he handled himself with such Grace and poise and didn't let the mounting tension frazzle him. Again, I wish this place was in my hometown so I could come here more often, but you can bet that I will be back here multiple times. Bottom line? There aren't many places that I would tell friends they definitely absolutely had to go to. But oeb breakfast is now on the top of the list for me to recommend to my friends.

A little weird to have 2 pieces of spinach as a garnish. Never seen that before. Potatoes were really good. Can't go wrong with those. Short Rib bowl: 8/10 everything in that bowl were amazing together. Banana Cream Pie French Toast: 4/10 this was a miss for me. Nothing amazing about it. The custard part was off for me. Maybe if it was more of a banana pudding, it would be better with the cream. Didn't really taste like a banana cream pie. Green Machine: 10/10!

Here's the problem: quality control just isn't there anymore. I ordered a salad and the avocado on top was clearly rotten. Not slightly bruised - I'm talking black, mushy, oxidized to the point of being inedible. It looked like it had been sitting out for days. For a salad that cost well over $20, that's unacceptable. I took two bites, felt my stomach turn, and put the fork down. The rest went in the trash. As a mid-to-high-end spot in Newport Beach that charges premium prices for clean eating, this fails the kitchen standards. Someone prepped that salad, someone plated it, and someone sent it out. No one noticed? Or worse - no one cared? To be fair: service was fine, the space is nice. Hummus with pita tastes great. But after this meal, my stomach literally felt off for hours - the opposite of what "healthy eating" should do. I won't be coming back. Once you serve me spoiled produce, the trust is gone.
