   Las Brisas is an iconic Mexican restaurant perched cliffside on the north main beach with amazing views of Laguna Beach and Sunset. It has been many years since I have dined there but the food and service was beyond great! I would say they have stepped up their dining experience and you won't be disappointed.

   Beautiful venue with a stunning view and good service. Weather was perfect snd we enjoyed our little family reunion. We were only surprised by only having brunch prix fixe Manu option; would have preferred a little bit more food variety. Would recommend!

   The view is beautiful and the waiters are kind but the food is definitely not worth the money. We drove about an hour and 15 minutes to visit this place and besides the view I could have just ate somewhere locally for a better price and better taste. The filet mignon had no flavor, the pozole was delicious, the best part was the fruit and baked goods in the beginning.

   The ambiance is laid back, the beach backdrop is beautiful and the staff is friendly. The best dish during our brunch was the fresh fruit, which was delicious but other than that the food was bland. The timing of the dishes was poor, we were all not even half way through our first dish when the warm main course was being delivered and needless to say by the time we got to the main course it was cold. You are definitely paying for the ambiance and proximity to the beach, the food is flavorless.

   We had a reservation well in advance. We asked to sit on the patio. We were first going to be seated in the bar area in a bad seat. We then asked for the large patio which we assumed we were getting since the small bar is for happy hour. We then were shown a high top. Since we are in our seventies, that was not an option. I was getting upset. We then were given a table for six which we had to take because the host had no other options. During our meal, we were constantly bombarded by the kitchen staff with meals that we did not order. It seems that if you are a twosome, you are given preferencial treatment.

   Service was very slow. We waited a long time to even order drinks. It was not busy as our reservations were at 4:15. When we wanted to leave, we asked three different people to find our waitress. Finally we had to go to the valet desk to get our check because no one could find our waitress. Upon ordering I mentioned I was allergic to dairy. I ordered the guacamole dip as an appetizer. It came with cheese on it so I was unable to eat it. Wanted to send it back to get some without cheese but could not find our waitress. So the other guests in our party ate the dip. When I ordered, I asked about the chicken. She said it was half a chicken so I would get some dark meat and a breast. I received two thighs. Greasy, tough and flavorless thighs. No white meat at all. The chair pads were filthy. The only thing about my experience that was positive was the valet. They were all very friendly and capable. And the attendant in the bathroom. Other than that, this place was an expensive disappointment.

    Our server was great and the view was amazing. Our only complaint was that for as expensive as our brunch was… we felt rushed. The food was ok, but I’ve had equally good food at half the price. Everything’s fine, but it came out so quickly before we finished one item the next one was out. Give us a minute in between courses.

    I returned to Las Brisas with my wife after having a wonderful experience 30 years ago. I booked the reservation on line and visited the restaurant the night prior to choose our seat. The young ladies at the front greeted us and asked how they could help. I mentioned our reservation for the next night and asked about seating. They were very accommodating and we had our pick of tables. We were seated at a table with a beautiful view if the ocean. Tony, our waiter could not have been more helpful. He made us feel welcome as he gauged our drink and food questions. I took his recommendation of the Sea Scallops and he was right. A wonderful dish indeed. My wife completely enjoyed her dinner as well. I can’t say enough about Tony and Paul who came to check on us. Great dinner with a view that can’t be beat.

    Two Beef filet entrees: both were medium well when we asked for medium rare. And lukewarm also. Ordered two glasses of wine; got one. Dessert order was confused: ordered sorbet trio for the little one; asked to skip the mango and substitute one of the other flavors; got double mango instead. Host service was good. Seated on time at a table of our preference.

    Service was terrible slow. We also sat at a table outside that was a cheap folding table covered w a table cloth so two sides of the table had legs in the way where we could not put our legs under the table making for an extremely uncomfortable meal. Which was VERY long due to the lagging service.

    We love going to Las Brisas, but the experience on Mother’s Day was so bad we won’t be back anytime soon. Our server took a while to greet us and take our orders. We were trying to be patient, knowing that the restaurant was very busy and it was a special day. But she did not come back to our table for over 40 minutes. We had already finished two courses of appetizers and oysters and our meals had arrived. She never checked on us - we spent all of our time looking around for her because I had a prime rib and no steak knife. Our tiny coffee cups were never refilled and we kept looking for her because we didn’t get any water. We saw 20+ servers, bussing staff, hosts, managers and other employees that walked by but never looked at us while we kept trying to get somebody’s attention. My husband finally flagged down a manager who brought us waters, refilled our coffee and got our server for us. What was supposed to be a relaxed Mothers Day brunch ended up being a very stressful and unpleasant morning.

    Family gathering for Mother’s Day. Nothing terrible to report about the restaurant. Beautiful setting. Just that the price seemed a little high. Perhaps inflation has finally gotten my attention.
