A La Brava Mexican kitchen — Restaurant in Aliso Viejo

This place is OPEN! I was so sad to see Capriotti's sandwhich shop go. However, when I saw there would be a new Mexican restraunt in the area to try out I was very excited! My coworker and I tried the breakfast burrito and the carnitas street tacos beans and rice. Everything is made to order. The flavors are amazing, the quality is beyond delicious. The flavors of the salsa are so mouth watering. They make the salsas with all fresh ingredients. While talking to the very sweet man at the front desk about the different sauces they make/use he would bring me a sample just so I could taste the flavors. Also, found out they have Taco Tuesdays starting at 4p.m. We will be going back and trying everything on the menu one day...

I never write reviews... but wow! I found this place by accident and I literally went back for more the next day. I've tasted chicken enchiladas, the tres leches French toast, breakfast torta, and street tacos. All aces. Great food and great service. I know they just opened recently, but I see great things in their future if they keep up with the food quality. I can't wait to try everything else on their menu. Feels like they need to be bigger than a hole in the wall strip mall joint. Truly authentic with a modern...

A La Brava is the latest Mexican gem tucked inside a shopping center. We went there for breakfast but couldn’t decide whether we wanted a savory or sweet meal. So, we did both! We had the chilaquiles rojos and the banana/berry crepe. The chilaquiles were crispy and addictive, and the crepe had just the right amount of sweetness with fresh berries. We will definitely return to try the other items on the menu. Ps. I tried the chilaquiles before...
