Nightingale - (Near Huntington Beach, CA)

5 /5 Perpetua Hollis: Tried this place for the first time and I have to say it was a great experience. Staff is friendly. The atmosphere is very welcoming... and the food is amazing. Perfect place to have a girls day or a special occasion celebration. I will def be back.

5 /5 Jennifer Ete: I got a DoorDash order, and it was absolutely delightful! I ordered lemon blueberry pancakes and farmers market fruit. Even though it was an order that had ridden around in a DoorDasher’s car for 30 minutes, it was still a 5-star experience. The flavor and consistency of the pancakes with the mascarpone and blueberry was perfectly balanced. I don’t even like mascarpone, and this was divine. This restaurant understands food presentation as an art. It was beautiful, and tasted just as good as one would hope.

5 /5 Lynn Le: Everything on the menu sounds great. I had the Coco Salmon which was perfectly cooked and flavorful. Would love to come back and try the brunch menu and drinks. Staff was attentive without being intrusive or overbearing, so I thought the service was perfect

3 /5 Vanny U: Ive tried several dishes here, from the Cali Bacon Burrito to the Combo Fried Rice, and overall, its been a decent experience. Its a small, tucked-away spot with a laid-back vibe and average service. I like sitting outside by the fountain; its a relaxing spot to enjoy the breeze and grab a bite. Portions are fair for the price, but the flavors are pretty middle-of-the-road. I came back to try the Crying Tiger, though it didnt really stand out; the presentation was messy and the dish itself just felt average. The server could be a bit friendlier with a smile, and its strange that they have a visible Wi-Fi network but no access (maybe because of their 90-minute dining limit?). Overall, not a bad place, but nothing that really wowed me; a fair 3-star experience.

4 /5 Stephanie Monroy: Steak was over salted, and chilaquiles were what you would expect them to be given the establishment. Lemonade was delicious and would recommend, but strawberry lychee cocktail was a hard pass. The inside of the restaurant was very instagramable, and they even had someone playing the violing when we first arrived, very cute vibes. The tables are quite small given the size of the restaurant, so there is not much room on your table to be comfortable. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Overall, its a very cute brunch spot with a great menu selection, Ill have to visit again to really give a proper rating of their food.
