2145 EATS — Restaurant in Costa Mesa

It was a pleasant surprise. 3 restaurants didn't allow us to make reservations on Mothers day, but we were allowed to make one on this one fourth restaurant. We absolutely loved it. I had reservations because it says "pizza restaurant" but honestly, the pizza's are made from scratch....you can tell it's all made with love. They also have a variety of other dishes besides pizza, and they seem plain, however, their flavor and spin to these dishes are game changers. My party ordered many things to share and taste...what was shocking was that the corndog...a corndog... was just so different and amazing. You would just have to try it to enjoy and know it. I usually take pictures, but I was so hungry. I ate too much. I love that it's so close toNewpirt Beach that I can just cross over and enjoy this restaurant. We were all shocked that we found this location because apparently it used to be a store. They only have Valet because it's a small parkinglot and its narrow. I loved the whole vibe to the place. The patio area is lengthy, its breezy, shady, and so peaceful. They grow a lot of herbs all along the sides. I'm just excited that we found a new spot that we will continue to come. Oh! And on Thursdays they have an open mic/band that comes in. We didnt see the stage because it was closed off. So, we are coming back on a Thursday to check it out. Our waiter was awesome, kind, and handsome. Haha, but not as handsome as...

Maybe I’m just picky but valet parking? Come on now. There’s like 10 parking spots. So you have to park down the street at the church (not a terrible walk but inconvenient if you’re trying to bypass the $8+ fee). When we walked up to the hostess she ask, “How can I help you?” Again idk if I’m just being picky but I’m at a restaurant, I’d like to be seated so I can eat? Just an awkward greeting. Our plates had some debris on them since they leave the tables outside decorated with your plates and napkins, but just a little gross to have a bunch of debris on the plates. Had a couple floaters in my glass. Pizza was 4/10 way too much olive oil making it super soggy and the cheese was placed all in the middle so when I lifted a slice to take a bite everything just fell off. Service was mid. Water was filled promptly after I drank it all but the table I was at was tiny so it was noticeable when it took a bit for them to remove dishes that weren’t being used. Soda’s aren’t refillable as they give you canned soda. My wife ordered spaghetti & meatballs. Meatballs were pretty good I’d give them a solid 7/10, pasta wasn’t cooked all the way and but the sauce was decent. Little pricey for the value in my opinion. I’m not apposed to paying a little extra for great service and food but the price didn’t match provided services and...

Sadly this wonderful and amazing pizza place can not get their act together. Our third time there and they run out of pizza at 8pm, while we and another big party have been waiting 45 minutes for a table. They had an incredible review and they're definitely busier, but shouldn't a restaurant, a pizza place, plan for more diners, especially on a weekend. I'm sorry running out of pizza at 8pm on a Friday night should not be happening. We took our business along with our $250 tab and ate at Sapori - a pizza place that does not run out of pizza at 8:30pm! 2145 better step up their game or they will continue to lose business. 3 parties left in a huff and so did two parties in the parking lot when we told them youhad no pizza left. It's a shame because their appetizers, pizzas and desserts are spectacular - when they have enough to actually serve. Thanks for replying Julie. Sadly we sent friends to 2145 about a month ago. Their kids live in NPB. Their entire family went on a Friday night at 8pm and you ran out of pizza. They will...
