OCC Captain's Table Restaurant — Restaurant in Costa Mesa

Again the food was very good.The appetizer was a mini burger made with very good beef. tasty with a surprise of a sweet pickle vs the usual dill. I normally dislike these but in this case it worked well as the pickle was not overly flavored w anise.

My daughter had a wedge salad with a dressing much like Boursin cheese in a good way.

I had a Turkey horse shoe sandwich ..this is a bit of white toast w a bit of turkey breast a few fries and a white sauce sort of like a taste of an open face roast turkey sand with . it was also very tasty well seasoned the turkey had nice texture was moist not dry. the withe sauce was velvety not starchy.

we both had the same main..a Cornish pasty. In Northern Michigan these are as ubiquitous as burgers. normally they are made with a short cut pastry which tend to be sturdy and hard and very filling. this was like a savory flaky pie shell a nice surprise! the filling was proper meat potato and rutabaga well made tender and tasty.

The scallops were like a gravy mush of ground up scallops and gelatinous cream with a few whole mushrooms tossed in. The king crab, which was extremely expensive, smelled like ammonia and was the texture of mush. Will never be back again. Ever. What a horrendously horrible experience when we were all really looking...
