Amazing view! Beautiful restaurant! Good service! But okay food. I would call it healthy, Americanized, spanish food? You're paying for the view. Guacamole and chips 3/5. Kind of bland and undersalted. Chips were not warm. (Maybe I was expecting it to be warm?) Shrimp Tampiquenos 5/5. I liked my plate. It was creamy and perfectly cooked. My friend got the Shrimp and Crab Rellenos and did not like it. The bathroom has amazing, thick quality napkins! LOL

Looking for good food with an amazing view beach side? Las Brisas is your place! Parking: I found street parking but I'd say it's pretty limited. There's also valet for $10! The food: +_Chips and Salsa/guacamole - maybe we were hungry but these chips were delicious, freshly made and all the salsas and guacamole were tasty. I may have accidentally gotten full just eating all of the chips hahaha. +_Chicken Mole Enchiladas (mole sauce, toasted sesame seeds, black beans, rice) - my boyfriend ordered this and I stole a few bites hahah. I thought it was well seasoned and the beans and rice were good. +_Shrimp Tampiquenos (mexican prawns, corn, rice, white wine garlic sauce) - I ordered this and I AM SO GLAD I DID, 100/10! The shrimp was fresh, and the sauce was so flavorful. My boyfriend said he liked my order more than his! +_Seared Sea Scallops (cauliflower purée, tomatillo, green olives, sparkling wine beurre blanc, choice of one side) - I got to try a bite of these scallops and they were good! A little salty for me and the plate came with 4, which I thought was a little pricy for $52. +_Tomahawk Steak (guajillo dry rub, salsa verde, salsa roja) - this was a show stopper, came out in a huge cutting board and cooked to medium rare perfection BUT for some reason we never got a steak knife hahahaahh. We only had the butter knives and it seemed a bit absurd to serve a $175 steak to leave customers with butter knives. +_Butternut Squash Tamales (pasilla chile, queso oaxaca, guajillo sauce) - I was originally going to order this but I'm glad I didn't. It definitely fell short of expectations, a little more cheese would've helped it I think and some salt. It tasted a bit bland, not something I'd recommend ordering. 4/10 We ordered a couple of drinks - Mai tai, peach martini, and peach floral spritz. I wouldn't say anything wow-ed us but the drinks were strong! Martin was our server and he was great, very attentive and welcoming - funny too! When we asked for the check, he asked if we were celebrating anything and we were! He said he'd be back with some dessert which ended up being a cheesecake that tasted delicious. We booked a sunset reservation and it was so nice to be by the beach. The view was gorgeous and as soon as the sun went down, servers pulled out the heaters and they are WARM! Kept us toasty throughout our meal. Prices are definitely inflated here but the service, view, and food (majority of them), are on par with the amenities of ambiance you get.

Food was great, red wine was lovely, service was good. it was a large conference crowd of 30+ people and was booked late. The stag handled the crowd admirably. The Malbec and Nebbiolo wines I tried were top notch. Grilled green beans were particularly good.

My husband and I came here for Labor Day weekend, definitely recommend to make reservations for holidays, it was busy! Service was amazing and the ambiance was perfect and beautiful to sit outside during the summer! The food, was great! Honestly the whole experience was! For Starters we got the bone marrow which came with sourdough bread and side of garlic confit that had a kick of spice! Sooo good, we usually do not like fat on meat but this was *chefs kiss*. The Fried Seabass on top of a masa bread, wow was so flavored and the right portion! If you are in LB and looking for a great date night by the beach, this is it!

I tried Las Brisas on a recent trip to Laguna Beach, recommended by my sister since her and her family have been going there for years. There is only street parking, but we were lucky enough to find a spot right at the front. The plan was to take a walk and have dinner before heading back home so it worked out it perfect. Once we were ready to have dinner, there was not a long wait. We entered the restaurant and it did look somewhat outdated but I feel as it is part of the restaurant's charming. We asked to be seated at the patio. As soon as we sat, we noticed a better table was unoccupied so we asked the waiter if we could move and happily accommodated. That elevated the visit one hundred percent. I couldn't stop seeing how nice the view was. We ordered water, drinks, enchiladas and chile relleno. The food was good, but my favorite part was the view. After dinner we walked around and even experienced an elaborated proposal. If you visit, you must seat at the patio. The restaurant is right at the corner and beginning of a walkway so it is very enjoyable.

I recently dined at La Brisa and the service was exceptional. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel welcome most especially Mr. Ricardo and well taken care of. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and made excellent recommendations. The timing of the courses was perfect, and they checked in regularly to ensure we had everything we needed. The service really enhanced the overall dining experience. I'll definitely be returning!

Food was good and the service was even better! Our server RICARDO was amazing! We will come again.

So, what's great about Las Brisas? First, the ocean view is spectacular. (I'll attach a photo I took right outside of the restaurant.) Even if you don't have a table right by the windows you can see the ocean. And there are dozens of outdoor tables as well. Second, you can make a reservation so if they're busy the wait isn't bad. Third, we were seated promptly. And when the folks at a nearby table were a little too loud, we were moved to another table by a cheerful waiter. Fourth, the food is delicious. Not your standard Mexican fare (which is good because it is a little pricey). Fifth, we had great service. Our waiter, Matt, was very attentive and friendly. He did a great job. Sixth, like I said, the food is a bit pricey. But I did not feel bad about the prices because the overall experience was so positive. Seventh, I will glad go there again when I'm in the Laguna Beach area.
