About 10Best's Orange County Restaurants Selections:

With Orange County's disposable income and proximity to LA, it's practically guaranteed that exquisite restaurants will be prominent. And with California's focus on fresh produce and local ingredients, you can bet that the cuisine will be memorable. A prime illustration of the bounty comes at Napa Rose, the restaurant at Disney's Grand Californian Hotel® that is widely venerated for its amazing food and stellar wine list. Resort dining is also an indulgent treat at Michael Mina's Stonehill Tavern in Dana Point, which boasts a siren's call in the form of beautiful food, beautiful people, and a beautiful space. The shared culinary techniques of French and Californian food are displayed to wonderful effect in more of the county's top eateries. Balboa Island's Basilic Restaurant and Brea's La Vie en Rose are Continental delights, as charming and romantic as they are delicious. Gorgeous views, Californian cuisine, and soothing interiors are the seductive draw at the Ritz-Carlton's Restaurant 162', which plies diners with perfectly prepared seafood. For a funkier, more global-inflected version of the Golden State's contributions, try Café Zoolu, and be prepared to swoon in response to the sassy delights. Orange County knows how to serve a fabulous steak too, as places like Mastro's prove, and even if you're low on funds, you don't have to resign yourself to ramen: Zankou offers mouthwatering rotisserie chicken and baklava at less-than-California prices.

Dining at Lulu's Creperie Cafe is like being in the French countryside. Indoors or out on the lovely patio is truly a French experience. The food is delicious, the atmosphere is warm and friendly, and the prices are right. You will enjoy the outstanding French food. Each patron is greeted as you would an old friend. This is a real treasure of a restaurant.

This restaurant is a real gem – great crepes and wonderful French dinner specials. The Salmon was delicious as was my boyfriend's Duck a l'Orange. We had the Apple Tart Tatin for dessert, and it was superb! While we were there, the owner gave us some crepes to taste – so we will be back to have more. Also, they have a great wine selection as they have partnered with the Grapevine – who gives their EXCELLENT wine selections weekly – all at great prices!! I would highly recommend this restaurant!

I was amazed when I visited the restaurant as to how delicious, fresh and healthy the menu items were. I had never tried Vietnamese food before, but the warm and tranquil atmosphere coupled with friendly service makes this restaurant more than your average Vietnamese noodle house. Virtually anyone would feel comfortable walking into the restaurant and ordering Pho - the signature dish, or any of its fabulous menu items.

This is a small and cozy Italian restaurant in the heart of Mission Viejo. Offering quality combined with value has been their trademark for the past 16 years. The Complete Dinner which includes bruschetta, soup and salad, entree plus coffee and desserts is unmatched in Orange County. Their menu combines classical Italian fare such as incredibly good lasagna to the more upscale entrees such risottos and seafood dishes.

I have been going to Salvatore for the past 10 years and have never been disappointed. In a world dominated by restaurant chains, it's refreshing to still have a place like Salvatore, where the owner and not a teenager will welcome you at the door. I feel that it is one of the last true neighborhood restaurant. The food is always excellent (my favorites are Pollo Gorgonzola and Lasagna), the service friendly and the value is unbeatable. They serve complete dinners which includes soup, salad, entree, coffee, and dessert (I agree with Judith, the tiramisu is the best around). You might want to check their website www.salvatore38 where they always have discounts and special promotions.
