This place is a neighborhood Gem! The food is amazing and has a beautiful view!!

Reserved an outdoor table, and was asked to wait for them to check for availability, they never came back to tell us how long and then I asked them and they said another 20 mins or so possibly, then they sat us inside the empty restaurant at a table you definitely cannot enjoy the sunset at even though other tables were open w a view. That’s why we went at 7:30 to enjoy a sunset and for the price everything was underwhelming. The hostess said she’d move us when someone left outside and she told me to let her know if we see someone leave ? Makes no sense to me at a place like that to have undertrained hostesses

This is an amazing place to eat. The service was great. The food was great. I will be back..

Great food, great service and awesome view. The short ribs dish was delicious

Great meal, the rigatoni and carpaccio was excellent. 10/10 experience!

Had the best time ever!!! Didn’t want the night to end!! EVERYTHING was SPECTACULAR! Food, service, ambience, the view! Visiting next time for sunset hour!

Overall experience was good. Our server made the whole experience great and the food. However, I requested to be seated with a view and they put us with partial view. It was my husband and I’d wedding anniversary and I put that in the reservation hoping they would come up with something but nothing was offered. A little disappointed with that

Just another wonderful evening at Pelican Grill. Consistently a great experience

What an unexpected, beautiful dinner with my 93 year old uncle. I wanted to take him to a nice restaurant with a view as he is concluding a 2 month stay with me. Everything about this evening was exceptional. The parking valets were kind and respectul despite the fact that I wasn't in a $100-500K car like every other one parked out front, LOL. Once we walked through the door, we were warmly greeted and taken to a quiet indoor booth. I was given a choice of outdoor or indoor, but I thought the indoor seating would be best to keep my uncle warm, however upon seeing the"outdoor" tables, I thought we would have a nicer view. The outdoor heaters and glass enclosure ensured our comfort. We were offered blankets if needed, but it was nice and toasty. My uncle was so happy and enjoy a pint of Guinness and we had a lovely chat. I called the restaurant before we arrived to ensure they could prepare a completely salt free meal (uncle has a serious health condition) they assured me everything is made from scratch and they could accomodate the request. He ordered the Chilean Sea Bass and I shared a bite of it. It was absolutely perfect and delicious. He enjoyed it very much. Our waiter was very kind and attentive. After we were seated he came by our table and introduced himself and reviewed the notes I made in my reservation regarding the salt restriction. I cannot wait to return to this restaurant again. I highly recommend it for your consideration and I thank the staff from the bottom of my heart for making my uncle's day.

This is one of my favorite places in Orange County and it’s always really on point. Great food and really nice atmosphere.
