Onotria Wine Country Cuisine in Costa Mesa

An Italian restaurant in Costa Mesa, it has a couple of function rooms. There is courtesy valet, no self parking available. Nice setting and friendly service. After we ordered our dishes, the waiter pushed a trolley of tapas for us to choose an extra. Their special were wood fired pizza. The linguine was nice but without much cream sauce. The risotto was very tasty and delicious. Overall, we were impressed with the restaurant.

Marie Callender's Restaurant & Bakery

They have a $10.99 special on Shepherd's pie or Chicken pot pie that comes with caesar salad and a slice of marie's pie as desert. We ordered one each. They also served us warm corn bread as starter. The shepherd's pie was not authentic as they don't use mince beef and there was no pastry on top. Pastry crust on the chicken pot pie was thick and dried. Rather disappointing. Then we ordered apple pie and double cream blueberry pie. That redeem itself. Overall, a place supposes to be famous for pies (according to advert), it ain't so. Two people for $30, not worth the price and won't be coming back.
