Beyond The Baguette - Santa Ana

Hidden gem. I've lived here for four years and only just found this place, but I'm so glad I did! The menu is varied, and the food is fresh and delicious. I always sample the Vietnamese coffee wherever I go, and this one is impressive—not too sweet like at some other places. If you appreciate a good atmosphere, this restaurant features a lovely dining area with high ceilings, plus a nice bar to sit at. Give it a try; you’ll definitely want to return!

The ambiance, food, and service were all excellent! Our server, Vi, was very friendly. I will definitely recommend this place to friends and family.

The staff is consistently sweet and welcoming whenever we dine here. My boyfriend and I have become regulars because we enjoy this place so much. The prices are also very reasonable given the quality and quantity of the food. We tried the desserts for the first time after our meal, and we absolutely loved them! I had the French-style cheesecake with a little walnut, and it was delicious! My boyfriend ordered the Jesuit Breakfast Napoleon, which was amazing. The filling was warm and so tasty. I regret not getting the manager's name because she was fantastic as well. Thank you for the great recommendations!

First time here today and won't be the last. The service was amazing, pho was delicious and great atmosphere. Oh and the mousse in the shell was delicious, which is made in house daily.Food: 5/5

I ordered via doordash to my job so i cant comment on service BUT i can def comment on food. Also one huge thing that stood out to me is they dont provide enough sauce! Half the small sauce container was full of hoisen for pho. Barely enough sauce for one spring roll in an order of 2. The bread pudding had barely enough sauce as well. : Traditional sandwich banh mi 4 10 As you can see on the attached photo theres not much filling in the sandwich. I also love cilantro radish carrots in my banh mi which i was expecting but also wasnt there. But still, i didnt hate the taste and the quality of bread was good Beef brisket pho 6 10 First bite i was like ok... this is sweeter than any pho ive ever had. It took getting use to but it wasnt bad. I kinda enjoyed it. I was just thrown off bc it was different from what i was used to. Also, half a small sauce container of hoisin was ridiculous to me. Grilled spring rolls 8 10 I love the fried egg roll wrap inside makes a huge difference bc now theres texture! If youve been to brodard or summer roll and have had this kind of spring roll the pork here is different. In a good way! It reminds me of a light longanisa flavor! Or chinese sausage kind of. I really liked it. Only down side, the sauce provided was enough for one spring roll in an order of two : Pear bread pudding 7 10 Love my sweets. It was yummy, really enjoyed the sauce! If only they gave more sauce. Green thai tea 8 10 I enjoyed it. Not as sweet as seaside bakery 's and thats a good thing. Overall decent spot!
