Seabirds Kitchen The Lab - Costa Mesa

In a beautiful location, really high quality food, and high (but fair prices). Like that you can add tofu to dishes like the mac-n-cheese to add protein.

Celebrating their 10th year at this location. Great indoor and outdoor seating with a lot of to-go business. Enchiladas are fantastic, as well as their brussel sprout appetizer that didn’t fall apart during cooking. Beet burger came with side of salad or fries and bean side came with enchiladas. A full meal for sure! Only complaint was that we started with one server and then another server took over. They kinda of forgot about us at the end due to their own confusion.

The breakfast burrito was okay, but not what I expected as it lacked flavor.

Everything we tried at Seabirds was fresh and delicious. The food was super clean and homemade, but wasn't lacking flavor at all. The star of the meal was the avo chocolate mousse for dessert. It was decadent and rich, but not heavy and too sweet. The whip cream and gluten free Oreo crumble were perfectly balanced and it is one of the best desserts I have ever eaten. There are plenty of delicious gluten free options on the menu.

I really enjoyed the warm cauliflower salad. Everything is always fresh and delicious. The staff, at times, could be a bit friendlier but the food more than makes up for it.
