The Clubhouse Restaurant / Costa Mesa

Ahhhh, the good life. Situated at South Coast Plaza in Costa Mesa. My wife was dying to try it, so I figured "what the hey", lets do it! I gotta admit I was a little intimidated at first, It is South Coast Plaza you know. Me in my t-shirt and jeans, we were enthusiastically welcomed upon entry (Maybe they thought I was some burnt out rock star, or musician...) whatever the case were were escorted to the back door...(just jokin') We were escorted to a cozy table for two, and the specials were explained to us.

Oh course I started with a Guiness on tap which was by all means GOOD. Looking around you could tell there were some power players, soccers moms, and just ordinary joes. It was a cool crowd buzzing with conversation (no, not me buzzing, the crowd..)

I had The Clubhouse Garbage Salad (see, I told you these were down to earth people), it had grilled chicken, egg, cheese, tomato, green onion, bacon + more......Good, and not too filling. My wife had the roasted jalapeno jack burger. She was in heaven...
The food was great, prices not bad, and the service was class "A". End result, A Winner!

Pull up your Benz to the valet parking and check out The Clubhouse Restaurant the next time you're at South Coast Plaza looking for that new Rolex.
