This place is absolutely stunning. It’s bright, crisp and beautiful. The food was outstanding. I got the eggs Benedict. You can’t go wrong with their mimosa specials. Impeccable service. Will be coming back again!

Social restaurant lives up to its name. We gathered there for a traditional Social, the wedding rehearsal party. The setting was outside under a canopy. The fire lamps were blazing beautifully. The table was spread with cheese boards filled with delights. The brussels sprouts were so delicious, cooked in a way I throughly enjoyed. I ordered the salmon it was perfectly cooked not over nor under done, just perfect, and it tasted good too. Perfect salmon is a rare experience for me. Bravo to the chef at Social we were talking about the skills of the chef all night. My wife loved the meatball pasta too. It was a great experience all around; The service was excellent, the drinks good and the food was delicious. I highly recommended SOCIAL of Costa Mesa for your next Social.

I will strongly recommend their bar experience first and foremost! It was great, service was prompt and polite, cocktail menu was diverse and aesthetic (we loved the illustrations, very cute). And now I will tell an unsolicited cautionary tale about brunch. We initially made a reservation that ended up needing to grow (as it happens, Saturday brunch is popular), but there was a $25 charge per guest to cancel the reservation. We didn't need to cancel it, just needed to modify it to add folks to the group. Modifying the reservation was not an option on the website, even two days before the reservation. I tried to call and the phone number I found on Google and Yelp was for an insurance company. When we did get through with a different number that my friend found somewhere, they were very polite about adding guests to t
