WOW! What else can I say. Clean restaurant, great service, and the Seabass was scrumptious! Definitely my favorite restaurant.

The salad situation described in the above reviews is a scam, I know personally. The servers are told to, for lack of a better word sneak them in on you. They are sales people and get certain shifts according to selling. They do not treat their employees very well as upper management has changed hands to some clown who came from kings fish house. Well if you want to change Opah into king's, you are going in the right direction. It has been noticably slower but they do have the only place around going for them. I wish I had the money to buy this place and give it what it needs. Which is, a do whatever the customer wants attitude. They have mediocre food and an unhappy staff which stems from the pressure of the clown running the place, and he is never there. One more note, rancho santa margerita shup its doors and rumor is that tustin is next, well opah better pull their heads out or more people will just go elsewhere and it will be a vacant building.

I guess for being the only restaurant in Aliso Viejo it's nice but I can get more value for my dollar going to Sizzler. My friends in Aliso swear by this place. I tried it out thinking my friends can't be that dumb or tasteless. Apparently, I was wrong. The food is comparable to Elephant Bar or a good Cheesecake Factory. Next time i'm in O.C. I'm going to stick to Newport or Laguna for dining.
Pros: Nice location....
Cons: ehh....

10 girlfriends and I went to this place for our annual holiday get-together. When the women on our side of the table ordered our entrees, including filet mignon, pasta, and fish, the waiter responded, "Would you like house or Caesar salad?" Surprised that a salad came with the entree, I responded, "Caesar, please." I don't normally order salads at restaurants, as I don't like to pay for cold food that I can make at home. When the food arrived, the waiter had charged us all $8 each per salad. Incredulous, I told the waiter, "None of the women on this side of the table had any idea that these weren't part of the meal." His response: "I'll get the manager." Interesting. Instead of saying, "I'm sorry, I believe I said, 'Would you like to ADD a salad" - he says, "Let me get the manager." Let me preface all of this by saying that this waiter had spent at least 15 minutes of his time taking numerous photos of our table, insisting on different poses and taking oodles of time flirting with mothers, mostly in their late thirties and forties. I realized immediately that this was all to disguise his "padding" the bill. The manager came over and heard my objection. His response: "Did you read the menu?' As if to say, "If you had read the salad section of the menu, you would have seen that we charge for salads." I, of course, no dummy, say, "That's nice. I don't EVER read the salad section - that's not what I'm here for. I did not order a salad - the waiter offered me one. I don't like the sneakiness of it, and I'm not paying for my salad." Instead of apologizing for the miscommunication, and eating the $2 cost of the whole table's salads, the manager actually argued with me.
I couldn't remember why I insisted on ONLY going to restaurants in Laguna Beach, but now I remember. Laguna Beach restaurants don't treat their customers like idiots. DO NOT GO TO OPHAH'S! They are sneaky, dishonest, and the food is mediocre.

I went to this restaurant with 10 of my friends tonight. When I ordered the filet mignon, the waiter said, Would you like house or caesar? I'm not a big salad fan, as it's cold and it's rabbit food to me, but obligingly, I said, Caesar, please. When the bill came, the restaurant had charged all 10 mothers $8 each for their salads. I was incredulous, and told the waiter that he did not make it clear that there was an extra charge for salads. His response: I'll get the manager. Interesting response. He did NOT say, for example, No, I said, 'Would you like to ADD a salad, or would you like a salad WITH that? No - he got his sleazy manager to come over. Predictably, the manager said, Did you look at the menu? As if to say, If you read the entire menu, you would have seen that the salads were separate. So I said, I don't ever look at the salad menu, as I don't eat rabbit food at restaurants, since I can very well make them at home myself. It was not my burden to understand that the salads were extra, but they obviously have this scam down pat at Opah. I hesitated to go to a restaurant in Aliso Viejo, as there are way classier places to go right down the street in Laguna Beach - but alas, it was not my choice to have our dinner there. Rest assured, I will never go to Opah's again - and I will never recommend anyone else to go there, either. Dishonest, and mediocre food.

The last review, dose not have it right. they should stay closer to Lesiure World. This place is for high end classy no rush customers. yes its busy with little standing room. So if your not in any rush to eat and enjoy the potential of meeting new friends, and your age range is 35-60 this is a great after work place to meet and enjoy good food. So if the price is a bit high for you drive by and the rest of us will wave to you as you go though del taco.
