    The food was amazing, however we had sat down exactly 18 minutes and we already had drinks, appetizer and meal delivered all at once (probably pre-made sitting under heat lamps). With that said, the food was delicious. The trout with caviar appetizer was great and the chicken parmesan was outstanding. Location excellent as we went to Pagent of the Master's right afterwards. Would have liked desert but our waiter seemed to forget about us.

    I said it to my waitress and I'll say it again here: whoever made my hangar steak deserves a raise, a promotion, and a hug. That was hands-down the best meal I have ever eaten. Give that chef a Michelin star!!

    Live music was being performed on the Pageant grounds and the piped in music was also being played (albeit softly) at the restaurant. It was a bit distracting at times. Be prepared to shoo away a few bees during the meal as they are there too. Didn't bother me but they are there. Food was very good and staff's level of attention was good too.

    The nice part about Terra Laguna was the proximity to the Pageant of the Masters. Being able to already be there was a plus. Our reservation was at 5:15, allowing us a leisurely dinner and time to walk around the art exhibit before the show. A little pricey but good food and worth the location.

    The ambiance and service were excellent, but the food was terrible and very expensive. I first ordered the spaghettis with crab and shrimp that was over salted and served with curry. Indian and Italian fusion I guess. I paid $38.00 for a reheated piece of parmesan chicken that was luke warm and served weeds on the side. They no longer service a salad with their entries. Two other guests shared the seabass. They had 2 bites each because it was so small and it was served with some dark ugly rice. they left hungry.

    The food was terrible and I wouldn’t bother going there if you’re trying to eat healthy. There was nothing on the menu that I could eat and so I made do with what they had. They used to offer a delicious salad before the meal and there was no salad. I ordered the broccolini and it was terrible. I couldn’t even cut it with a stick knife.  I ordered a burger without a bun to keep it healthy, but it was dry and over cooked.

    The food was good, the service was excellent. The price was on the high side and then they added a 4% charge for an increase in food charges which I thought was silly when they charge $29 for a burger even if it is a Wagyu burger. The setting is outdoors and the temperature was pretty decent, but there was some bees flying around so other than that we had a very nice time.

    Knowing that the location is the draw- Terra Laguna is on the grounds of the Laguna Beach Pageant of the Masters & Art Festival- we didn't expect great food or moderate prices. For two people food and soft drinks, no alcohol, appetizers or desserts, our meal was about $115.00 with tip. Service was reasonable. LOTS of BEES throughout our meal. Maybe a later meal time would have been better with fewer bees.

    The only downside was tons of bees, buzzing our table, not threatening a sting, but just buzzing our food. I hope in the future they find the hive and that would make dining. They’re perfect.

    The food was good but not exceptional, considering the prices ($29 hamburger). The Flat steak was tasty, but the Sea bass was undercooked and had to be sent back. Didn't get a lot on the plate and no salad was included. This was the first time we were back since COVID and to be honest we were really disappointed they no longer offer the rack of lamb. That dish was excellent and the main reason we went there for many years. Talked to the waiter and he said they changed chefs every year for the last 3 years. The remodel was top notch and the atmosphere is great. Not sure that we we eat there again next year for our pre-pageant meal. Bottom line... disappointed.

    Pageant of the Masters wouldn’t be complete without dinner at Laguna Terra. The ambiance coupled w with the great food eaten to the accompaniment of Beach Boys music was perfect. It’s why we make an annual trek from Las Vegas to Laguna Beach for a great evening.

    Food and beverages were delicious, but the selection available was very small. Took far too long (at least 5 minutes after we were seated) before any wait staff came to our table. It appeared that there the "order takers" were few and far between for the amount of tables.

    I had the Sea Bass. The plating and flavor of the meal was very good. For $45 the size should be about 50% bigger. My wife had the empanada plate. The Spinach empanada.was Very Good! The Chicken empanada was Good! The Beef empanada was average. The Terra was of course, Very Busy. The staff was working Very Hard to to serve the guests. Kudos to Jacob and Greg! All things considered, Overall … 4 Stars. We will be back next year.

    Food was very tasty and a good value given the location. Adding a salad to the menu would be nice as well as a few more slices of pita to the hummus appetizer. Service was good even though we had to request water refills and ketchup for our fries (which were 90% gone by the time the ketchup was delivered)! We will definitely go again when we attend Pageant of the Masters.

    Our group of four was disappointed with the menu options and the service. One of us ordered the Sea Bass, which was delicious but lacked any vegetables or accompaniments. The Hanger Steak was tasty. The burrata and butternut squash appetizer was delicious. Empanadas were good but nothing special. Our waitress was not very attentive and frequently nowhere to be found. We had to ask other members of the waitstaff for silverware, bread, butter, coffee...

    Food was good but service was really rough. They were super busy but we didn’t have our drink or food order until about 15 minutes after we were seated. At one point a waiter came up to us and started to ask “has anyone been by” before the manager grabbed his arm and pulled him away from us to go to another table. Just overall seemed like the waitstaff was super stressed and management wasn’t helping.

    we had a table of 6 and felt like the waiter did not like us at all. Was in such a rush and always passed us by. Now, I understand the restaurant was full but there were other servers. He seemed stressed out and our guest were not pleased with him at all. Perhaps he was overwhelmed, but we did not feel like he cared for us. Not sure why as we were all enjoying eachothers company. Not rude at all. One of the other servers kept coming by and had fun with us .. IDK !
