About Us

Serving up good vibes and even better food since 2008.

Eat Chow was built on a simple idea: serve really good food in a place people actually want to hang out.

For nearly 20 years, we’ve been bringing together elevated comfort food, coastal energy, and a laid-back neighborhood vibe inspired by surf, skate, and classic diner culture.

What started as a local favorite in Costa Mesa has grown into two Orange County spots where friends gather, families connect, and regulars feel right at home. Our menu takes familiar comfort food classics and gives them the Eat Chow treatment — fresh ingredients, bold flavor, and a creative twist that keeps people coming back.

At Eat Chow, we believe great food doesn’t have to be complicated. It should be satisfying, welcoming, and a little nostalgic — in the best way possible. Whether you’re grabbing breakfast after an early surf, meeting friends for dinner, or settling into the patio with a burger and a beer, we’re here to make every visit feel easy, familiar, and fun.

More than anything, Eat Chow is about creating a place that feels good to be in. No pressure. No pretension. Just great food, good people, and the kind of atmosphere that keeps you coming back.

Come Hungry. Leave Stoked.
