Restaurants near Holiday Inn Santa Ana-Orange County Airport

Our experience was amazing at Mastros! They printed “Happy Birthday Sarah” on our menu, which was an incredible and special touch! Our servers were incredible and always made sure we had water and cocktails. The food was delicious and perfectly cooked! We will definitely be back! Thank you for a very special experience!

The Water Grill Costa Mesa/South Coast Plaza is our absolute favorite restaurant (my wife and I). The service is impeccable. We enjoyed amazing cocktails served by Graydon , The Awakening is outstanding! Our server Makayla was friendly and very attentive, and the manager Alejandro visiting our table added that extra touch of hospitality. The meal is always spectacular! The freshest seafood, full of flavor, carefully prepared, and served with perfect timing between each course! The ceviche and seafood towers are our favorites along with the best table side bread anywhere. We can’t wait until our next dining experience there, probably next weekend!

As always, Habana did not disappoint. My husband and I dined there last night. We were celebrating our one year wedding anniversary, and the third anniversary of our first date. We met on a blind date at Habana, and make it a tradition to go back every year. They gave us the sweetest postcard, wishing us a happy anniversary, and spread rose petals on the table, it was a very intimate and thoughtful touch. From the hostesses greeting diners with an offer of free champagne, to the amazing waitstaff, it’s always a treat. The food is so reliably good, my husband had the churrasco, and I had the salmon. The ceviche appetizer was to die for. I’m always struck by the energy on the patio, everyone always seems to be having a good time, and it’s just a place to celebrate. People having birthdays, anniversaries, it’s just the most warm and romantic atmosphere. Even on the coldest nights, the heated patio is the place to be. See you next year Habana!

I had brunch/lunch with my bridal party on Saturday afternoon and we were serviced extremely well. We had the: Seasonal Vegetable Salad, Hot Honey & Smoked Prosciutto Pizza, Bolognese (House Specialty) and Trottole Chicken Pesto. All plates I HIGHLY recommend. I have been here for dinner in the past and I had the same experience, great service, delicious food and drinks. Make sure to make reservations in advanced for dinner. Will be coming back very soon!

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience!! Had a reservation and was seated right away! They acknowledged our special occasion celebrating our engagement with an adorable sign and champagne and dessert as well! The service was amazing despite how busy they were, and the food was delectable as well! He got the filet mignon which was super tasty (especially the red wine sauce it was cooked in), and I got the cedar plank salmon which was cooked to perfection! We also mentioned our plans after dinner and our server was keen to be on time with our orders and attentive to make sure we wouldn’t miss our subsequent plans. Overall it was such a wonderful dining experience and we both left feeling incredibly satisfied and happy! Would highly recommend!
