THE BURGER
*THIS IS A 5 STAR REVIEW I LEFT ON YELP* I've lived in South OC most of my life and don't really bother going to Laguna Beach to eat very often... mostly because every place around there is unbearably pretentious. Harley is a rare exception. Very welcoming vibe. I felt like a regular right away and now it's my go-to spot. The jammy eggs, burger, hibiscus martini, and Walken Dead are legendary. Better than a sweet, magic kiss. The chicken wings are good but a bit too messy for my liking. It's rare for me to love a South OC restaurants like this. Harely is my delicious unicorn.
GRILLED YELLOWFIN
Delicious. Perfectly seared and very tasty! Olives, almonds, fennel pops the taste
HASH FRIES
These were delicious and unlike any other loaded fries I've ever had! Highly recommend.
CHICKEN POT PIE
So glad this item is back! The best chicken pot pie I have ever tasted! The sauce is on point, so creamy and luscious I could bath in it. The crust is fall apart light and flaky and the chicken and veggies melt in your mouth and so flavorful. I will be eating a lot of this pie this Winter!
BRICK CHICKEN
This chicken blew me away. The chicken skin was crisped to perfection and the mashed potatoes were silky smooth. Harleys is my favorite spot in laguna!
ROASTED HEAD OF CAULIFLOWER
We came in and the 4 of us got the chef's tasting last Friday night. Had a private room upstairs! It was our 1st visit and was so amazingly delicious with all the courses we got but the cauliflower was absolutely to die for the way it was prepared and how it melted in your mouth! I have never been to a restaurant with that signature dish! Loved, Loved, Loved it!!!
JAMMY EGGS
There were four ladies on Thursday October 31st having a light early tapas spread. We shared the eggs, cauliflower, avocado and cacio y pepe and loved every bite of each dish. We raved over the avocado ( I have since invested in Jacobsens's sea salt) and the eggs - oh, everything. Our waiter was a wonderful addition to your restaurant and you should treasure her enthusiasm. I wish I lived in Laguna Beach! I would come every week. Or, you could open a restaurant in Seattle!
WILD BOAR BOLOGNESE
We tried the Taste of Harley 7 course dinner and everything was great. The Wild Boar Bolognese was probably our favorite course because all of the flavors blended so well and texture of the fresh pasta was perfect. Our server was amazing. She did a great job at explaining every course as it came out and she was very friendly. Can't wait to go back.
ROASTED HEAD OF CAULIFLOWER
Absolutely the BEST cauliflower I've ever eaten!! I've been craving it ever since.
SMOKED MOZZARELLA
Be sure you really love tomatoes if you order this
PECAN PIE
Nest pecan pie I've ever had! The crust was outstanding!
GRILLED STREET CORN
The street corn has a heavenly smoky flavor and shouldn't be missed!
BEEF TARTARE
This is a must try spot in laguna beach. Harley's has one of the best and most eclectic wine lists in SoCal. The meat quality and selection here is unparalleled. The oysters and beef tartare are both a must have.
EGGS BENEDICT
Let me start off by saying.... WOW! My boyfriend and I came across Harleys on my 21st birthday, and we were both over the moon about it. The food, the drinks, the story behind Harleys is just WOW! Everything tasted incredible and looked amazing! We also tried their own Frosé creation, not too sweet, not too strong, just perfect. While eating our meals, we got to learn about the history and story behind the opening of the restaurant and even met the chef and owner, Greg Daniels. It was very sweet and heartwarming to hear about his inspiration from his family and grandparents and his goal to bring their memories and spirit into everything they create. On our way out, and as a Happy Birthday treat, we were even treated to cookies created with an original recipe from his Grandma, (Harley's Wife) Mary, which were very yummy! The restaurant is also very elegant in appearance, from the inside and out but it has a family feel to it which makes it special. We were very impressed with the service and food and have since told our family and friends to visit and see for themselves how incredible it is. We will definitely make this our go to place for date nights or weekend brunch! 10/10 recommend!!!
JAMMY EGGS
The jammy eggs are not a deviled egg. These eggs are soft, velvety and perfectly seasoned without being heavy. This restaurant is our new favorite. The staff is warm and welcoming, the cocktails are fresh and untypical. The food is locally sourced which is important to us and for so many people following alternative eating styles like paleo and keto..
BOTTOMLESS MIMOSA
GREAT atmosphere ~ classy and upscale.
CACIO E PEPE
We ordered the pepper pasta and the hash fries with caviar. The pepper pasta was amazing but the hash fries were my favorite. They came with an amazing green sauce that complimented the potatoes and caviar perfectly. We'll definitely be coming back for more.
CACIO E PEPE
My fiance thought this was the best pasta he'd ever had. I had the wild boar which was AH-MAZING! I didn't see it on the menu posted online, but I hope they have it next time we visit (next week!). Everything about this dining experience was top-notch. And I'm so happy they added some baffles to lessen the noise.
THAI DUCK CONFIT SALAD
Pure HEAVEN
ROASTED HEAD OF CAULIFLOWER
So delicious
THE BURGER
We recently visited Harley on a weekday for their signature burger and beer at Happy Hour. Every thing was amazing, including our attentive wait staff, a glowing fire in the fireplace, and the eclectic and fun beer menu. We are locals... I stumbled upon this review link while making reservations for dinner. We will definitely be back, and we love the upscale feel of this fun, local restaurant.
GRILLED AVOCADO
Beautiful food. Beautiful views. Beautiful people. The grilled avocado and roasted cauliflower made our table so happy. Cheers friends!
WOOD FIRED LOCH DUART SALMON
Amazing food! Can't wait to return!
HALLOUMI CHEESE
My mouth starts to water when I think of this dish! Fried cheese is generally never on the diet but this is irresistible and I can taste the tang of lemon in my mouth just thinking about it. They must have every time we come!
CHICKEN WINGS
Ordered the happy hour wings for a small bite to eat while we drank our cocktails. They were excellent, very plump, and meaty . Actually quite filling. Sat at the bar and the two bar tenders were very entertaining. Harley's, great place to eat and have a drink.
PRIME FLAT IRON
Part of the price fixe menu, the steak was delicious. It was nicely sliced and cooked to perfection. In addition, it was a treat to watch Jose sautéing other items. Service and atmosphere was superb. I was alone and sitting at the counter overlooking the kitchen. A real treat.
WILD BOAR BOLOGNESE
The tagliatelle pasta was amazing! I'm actually online right now to see if they still offer it so we can go have it again tonight!
CREEKSTONE TOMAHAWK RIB EYE
This Was an absolute masterpiece. My mouth was watering the entire experience. Not only was it cooked to perfection, it was the mouth tender ribeye I've had the opportunity to consume. This is an experience of lifetime. With all the possible sides to along with it there is no wrong choice. I had the mashed potatoes with the caviar added. I was taken on a culinary journey. Not only will I come back, but I recommend if you decide to go here as well to try the Tomahawk Rib Eye. You will not be disappointed.
AVOCADO TOAST
The best ever!
THE PERFECT PEAR
Stopped by for a few drinks a couple of nights ago! This one of the best old fashioned that I have had! .. Atmosphere was great and I can't wait to go back for dinner!!
ROASTED HEAD OF CAULIFLOWER
This was the most excellent cauliflower I have ever had!! Highly recommend as a shared dish !
HALLOUMI CHEESE
This decadent + savory dish of Halloumi Cheese speaks to me. Full of flavor; the sprinkling of herbs + lemon is perfect. I leave indulged + always dreaming of my next visit when I get to taste the Halloumi Cheese at Harley. Delish!
CACIO E PEPE
I've been coming to this location for years. Many incarnations and always good. With "Harley" it's know GREAT! Had the lettuce leaves salad with a delicious dressing followed by the Cacio E Pepe. My date had the grilled Avocado with toast and the homemade pappardelle with Summer vegetables. Superb! Wonderful service and a great vibe. And they got us out in time to a walk to Pageant of the Masters! We'll be back!...,.and a nice touch were the delicious chocolate cookies with the check and the thoughtful note.
CACIO E PEPE
This is one of the best versions of this dish I've had in a long time. Well executed and balanced. Cheesy enough without being too heavy. A great version of a classic.
PECAN PIE
Absolute Best Pecan Pie! Better than granny's, just don't tell her that!
PECAN PIE
This pie will forever haunt me to go back to Harley's again and again for another slice. Absolute perfection and so delicious. Please never change!!!
PECAN PIE
Never have we ended a great meal with such a dessert of perfection! The pecan pie literally is the best we've ever had, including wonderful recipes handed down from great cooks in our families. The honey ice cream complemented the pie gloriously. Indulge and have this dessert!
CACIO E PEPE
My husband is a bit of a Cacio e Pepe connoisseur, and when we both tried this, we loved it. The texture was nice and creamy, and the portion was perfect. Loved their personal touch at the end of our meal too. So excited something new and good opened up in Laguna! Will definitely be coming back.
ROASTED PUMPKIN SOUP
Highly recommend! Who knew soup without milk or cream could be this scrumptious. It is absolutely delicious, and the delightful pepita tuile took this to a stellar level. This roasted pumpkin soup is the best thing I have tasted in a long time and is easily my new favorite soup!
PERUVIAN CEVICHE
So fresh and delicious, beautifully seasoned. I could eat this every day.
