Reviews for Costa Contemporary Kitchen in Costa Mesa, CA
MUST TRY! This is my absolute favorite restaurant now. The stuffed potato balls were the perfect starter along with my Old... Fashioned. My main dish was filet mignon, shrimp with french fries (super thick) and it was amazing. Everything in this placeis super clean and the staff are all friendly. Be sure to make a reservation a few days before since the seating is limited. Highly recommended Cheers Appetizer: Papa Rellena Main dish: LOMO MAR Y TIERRA Read more
Great Peruvian food and the service was great too. We had papas a la huancaina and tiraditos as starters. I had the ceviche... classico and it was delicioso. The pisco sour too. This place is highly recommended! ???? Read more
Excellent food. I don't know how Peruvian it was though. I really enjoy th Causas. House made sangria was tasty.
This place is just amazingly delicious, full of flavors and a lot of creativity! This is the second time we went there and the... more we come the more we like it! Top notch cuisine!!!! Ask for Hector, best bartender in CA!!! Read more
We absolutely love this restaurant. In the sea of big corporate chain restaurants around South Coast Plaza, Costa Contemporary... Kitchen is a quaint oasis of fresh, made to order, and extremely flavorful food. Each item on their menu, at least the 8 or sowe?ve tried, has offered something exciting and wonderful. In my book, as a bit of a chili head (someone who loves spicy food),any restaurant that makes their own hot sauce from scratch clearly cares about their food and the experience it provides? andyou guessed it, they make their own hot sauce, in fact they make two! We truly love this place and our only concern is thatit?ll be so popular someday we?ll never get in to eat ourselves! If you want an extra enjoyable meal, sit at the bar and letHector tell you about the special nuances that makes each item unique, you won?t regret it! Read more
Love it , food is amazing, chefs are from Peru and their dishes keep that essence. definitely ill go back again. The bartender... Hector from Mexico prepares amazing cocktails and their service was excellent, they all treated me really nice. Its a friendlyenvironment. Restaurant is small and cozy so i recommend you make reservations during the weekend. My recommendations: Ceviche, aji de gallina, Lomo saltado and pesto pasta with steak , everything was tasty Read more
My sisters, daughter, and I had dinner here on Saturday after seeing the Wicked play. Had to wait 45 min as we had no... reservations, and the place was small, so couldn't wait inside. We walked to the Westin, had drinks there, and walked back tothe restaurant once we got our call. The Peruvian food was superb! We ordered 6 different dishes and some drinks- Loved theArroz Con Mariscos and Causas! Sisters loved the Pulpo Al Olivo and Pescado Alo Macho!! The service was excellent! We had somuch fun! Note: They do not open until 5:30 pm and are not on OpenDoor. Suggest you call the restaurant the day before or sendthem a msg via their website to make reservations. Read more
Our first time dining at this gem of a restaurant, serving Peruvian Cuisine. From the moment we walked in without reservations,... we were seated at the bar. Greeted by Hector the manager. He was so nice and helpful in going through the menu and making hisrecommendations. You can tell this place takes pride in their food and service. We appreciated the attention to detail in everyaspect. Our meals served not only were hot right off the stove (which I love), but also very beautifully presented and superdelicious! I tried to attach photos here, but it does not give me the option. There was nothing that I could complain about, asin my mind this place is 5 stars all the way. Hector, thanks for making us feel welcomed; and we look forward to dining withyou again in the future. Our favorite Peruvian spot in America! Hands down the best! Read more
