Benchmark｜A Cozy Brunch Spot in Orange County, LA 🍳🌿

Benchmark A vibe-filled little spot with outdoor seating—perfect for a relaxed meal! 🐻 I visited in the evening, but it might get a bit chilly at night now. The decor is super Instagrammable, and the service is warm and welcoming! There’s a small parking lot next to the restaurant, and street parking is available too. 🍂 Dinner Menu (different from brunch!) Portions are great for sharing! 🍟 Truffle Fries Crispy fries with a rich truffle aroma—so addictive! 🦐 Togarashi Blackened Shrimp Tostada Really tasty! Includes cilantro and raw onions, but they blend in well—layers of flavor and texture. The tortilla base is fragrant and crunchy. 🐖 Crispy Pork Belly Has a Korean-inspired flavor, though I’m not a big fan of bell peppers 😅 🍗 Roasted Citrus Half Chicken Well-seasoned and juicy—I’d guess it’s organic because it’s smaller, but it’s grilled to perfection with a smoky BBQ vibe. Even when it cools down, it’s not greasy! 🍓 Butterfly Strawberry Spritzer So refreshing! Sweet strawberry flavor, fruity and light on the alcohol. 🐻 Final thoughts: I’d love to go back and try their brunch! The surrounding streets are picturesque—a charming, quiet neighborhood with a touch of European flair.
