Cafe Rose Express - Costa Mesa

We had a party of eight and enjoyed sitting outside on the terrace, where a gentle breeze added to the lovely atmosphere. Both the food and service were outstanding. I ordered the KC sandwich along with the soup of the day. My beef sandwich was deliciously prepared and was accompanied by a side of zucchini bread, which was also excellent. The soups here are always tasty, and I’ve never been let down by either the food or the service. I highly recommend this place for lunch or a light snack.

I had half a sandwich and half a soup, accompanied by zucchini bread, and it was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend it! The service was excellent as well.

The restaurant offers a great range of healthy meal options at reasonable prices. I particularly appreciate their "2 for 1" selection. The interior and exterior seating areas are quite spacious, making for a comfortable dining experience. My only minor complaint is the limited variety of soups available; the daily soup can sometimes be hit or miss.

I wanted to correct my review!!! This place is fantastic!!! I'll go back almost daily!!! It is difficult to find a place where you feel as comfortable as going home, this review is unrequired and it is completely sincere. I didn't take a free lunch or was compensated in any way. A fantastic place!!! 90 percent of the time my visits to this facility are excellent, which is why I do not want to spend the money. But today was probably my last visit for a long time. I had the weekly cooking special, the braided short ribs, Parmesan broccoli and potatoes potatoes. I've also added a Danish to treat myself to a little treat. But the short rib was dry and hard to eat. That was extremely unusual when I visited the meat every other time, was always so tender. The service is always very friendly, no exception today it was as friendly as it is usually, but the food did not meet the usual standards.

Really good salads. I had the Greek and a side of pineapple coleslaw. Nice outdoor seating, good portions. Definitely found a new lunch spot.
