Ava Goldman: INCREDIBLE food at Montage. Don't miss the harvest kale salad with shrimp, fresh squeezed pineapple juice, and salmon Benedict.
Josie M: One of the BEST, restaurants in O.C. Food was awesome, service was great, I highly recommend this place.
Andrew Levine: Lunch tip: Don't miss the Duck Confit salad (and they'll split it for two). Beware of $17 soups. Read more.

Elaf: You must try it , sea view is awesome 😍!!!!
Marty Pallotta: Have dinner here during sunset
@joe4pres: There's a funny thing that happens about 930 or 10 o'clock at this bar, it shockingly empties out... which leaves you the most pristine OC location possible all to yourself.

Daniel Garcia: Deck Tacos are amazing, as well as the bread! Staff is incredibly friendly. Lovely homey vibe inside the restaurant, and beautiful view outside. Expect long waits (90+ min) on weekend nights...!
@joe4pres: Go for the cabanas... There's a small minimum charge to meet, but you get a giant private space and if you have a small dinner party they will even put out a private table for you right on the deck
Jennifer Trevisan: If you are chilly, ask for a blanket!
Kiat 明: *The* most amazing service. Let them know if you're celebrating something. Spectacular setting, spectacular food, spectacular staff. Bravo.
Turki AlToaimi: OMG .. amazing .. can't wait to go back, the staff and atmosphere are marvelous...
@joe4pres: Ranks as the best overall restaurant in the OC. Bring someone special, and don't forget the big boy wallet
