My girlfriends organised my hen party lunch here last weekend. We had the bottomless lunch. The service was fantastic, the wine and sangria was kept topped up at all times. Our waiter was attentive and helpful. Couldn’t have asked for a better afternoon �
Such a fun afternoon doing the bottomless rosè lunch. We were a group of 17 and felt really well looked after ! I think it would be nice to have at least 2 taco’s instead of 1 and substitute the jerk salad or the ceviche. Aside from that we all loved it �
such accomodating staff and the food is incredible. always make it a point to drop in when i'm in the area
It’s Neutral Bay’s newest series of monthly comedy event nights. The Funny Flamingo launched 29th July in partnership with LaughMob. Edge 96.1 alum, Sean Michaels was MC for the night with a line up of comedy star power:. Harry Jun (Sydney Fringe). Jake Howie (NZ/ UK). Nat Demeana (Comedy Zone/ Triple j)
The service was friendly and efficient, and the food came out quickly despite the place being packed.
The tacos and quesadilla we ordered were delicious, especially the fish taco! We also ordered the Helado Domingo dessert of the month, which was definitely the highlight!!! Absolutely must try before it goes away.
Definitely on my list of one of the top Mexican joints in Sydney.
The ppl were very friendly. They mentioned that the food are generally all for share and 3 dishes are sufficient for two people. Their black corn chips was delicious. And we also enjoyed beef briskets, wings and tacos. Their Hawaiian beer was my favourite-tasted very special and fruity!
It’s too dark so I wasn’t able to take pictures of the nice food. I recommend this restaurant.
It takes a lot to get me over the Bridge. Actually, I lie. The promise of fun, colourful cocktails and yummy food, and I’m there. SoCal has all this in spades, and very much worth a jaunt to the North Shore.
First time dining here, food was delicious. The kingfish ceviche was amazing as was the broccolini with miso. Cocktails equally as good. Gets very busy so best book.
The chairs are a little uncomfortable, the blue ones feel like you are sitting in a high chair. Service friendly and attentive.
Good Mexican place to go to with your friends. A little bit on the expensive side but the food is pretty good. Cocktails are quality too, definitely give it a go.
Go for the margaritas and also try the beef cheek donut it is beyond amazing! Service is always great and the menu changes often to suit the season.
Socal ticks all the boxes. The venue is beautiful, great menu, food is so tasty, cocktails are amazing and the vibe is great. But the MAIN reason we go back every time is for the exceptional service. Upon arrival, we are greeted by the biggest smile and treated like VIP's by Cocheene and all the staff. Our favourite table is made available for us and we are waited on with class and sophistication every time, we are spoiled with menu suggestions and fast service. We just love it and can't wait for our next visit everytime. Safe to say, we highly recommend Socal.
Been here many times now and can report the food and service has been consistently good. A fun place to come after a long day at the office, for date night or just to hang out with friends. Can get a little loud inside but can usually be heard out the back on the rooftop terrace. A cool Southern Californian vibe with many popular dishes such as snapper ceviche, jerk chicken, slow cooked lamb, smoked pork belly, tacos and quesadillas. So fun; you'll want to come back again and again. Big on cocktails too!
Absolute delight. My Mexican wife is always a bit skeptical about places serving tacos while being American themed. But we had no bad surprises with the excellent food. Before we ventured into cocktail heaven and simply enjoyed being. Relaxed atmosphere, great decor, friendly service - 100% recommended.
So much to love about this place. Staff are amazing. Attentive, there when you need them and always with just the perfect attitude. Vibe is spot on. Lots of energy but you can still hear each other talk. And best fish taco I have ever eaten. Can't believe I hadn't been here sooner.
Great place to experience some Californian style Mexican cuisine. Service is quick and friendly, quick to make you feel cosy and at home.
While the interior really felt like sol cal, it was the outdoor courtyard that really made our experience awesome.
Food is classic Sol Cal food with favourites like Fish Tacos, but i reccomend trying other stuff like their wings. Wings had the right sense if crispness and the queso sauce hit the nail on the head. Had a Mezcal Margherita, which really complimented the seafood tacos.
Our server, the girl with the pigtails wearing the blues shirt was really attentive. Really good staff member and deserves some sort of bonus.
Price was reasonable and would come here again. Bookings recommended as this place was packed.
Dined here a few times but tried the new menu this week and it was incredible. Beef Short Rib, artichoke taco & the whole Snapper were the winners! The staff are amazing and cant do enough for you. The vibe was cosy and lively! We can't wait to go back and try even more of the delicious cocktails.
The extended family had a great time celebrating three birthdays at SoCal for lunch on Sunday.
The service was fantastic being very friendly and helpful. They managed to fit all 14 of us on a long table on the terrace outside and under cover.
Our casual meal was great with either the fish taco or jerk chicken getting the vote for best dish.
The bottomless Rose lunch was so so delicious, we enjoyed everything that was brought out and the rose sangria was amazing. The service was by far the best, our sangria jug got refilled before we would think to ask and the staff were flexible with dietary requirements etc. There was no pressure to leave either, we ended up staying for more food and drinks. Great atmosphere, great food and great staff. Thank you!
Fresh food, Excellent service. A nice place to hang out.
The jerk chicken and the fish tacos hit the spot!
