At Karl Strauss in Costa Mesa, the menu offers a tantalizing selection of dishes that seamlessly blend comfort with bold flavors. Whether you're in the mood for a quick bite or a full meal, the variety caters to every craving.
Start off with the appetizers, where you’ll find crowd-pleasers like crispy Fried Calamari and Ahi Poke Nachos, which bring together a delightful crunch and fresh flavors. For those who enjoy a touch of indulgence, the Double Truffle Fries are an irresistible choice, perfectly seasoned and crispy. The Boneless Wings also stand out, offering tender bites coated in a variety of sauces, from spicy to sweet.
If you’re craving something lighter, the Greens section has you covered. The Chicken Chop Shop Salad is a hearty mix of organic greens with grilled chicken, while the Salmon Caesar brings a fresh take on a classic with perfectly seared salmon. For something more substantial, opt for the Mains like the crispy Fish and Chips or the spicy Blackened Mahi Tacos, both of which pack a punch in flavor.
For those who appreciate a grilled-to-perfection cut, the Steak and Chop options are stellar. The Ribeye Steak (12 oz.) is cooked to your preference, offering a juicy, tender bite, and the Brined Pork Chops are another excellent choice, bringing a savory twist to your meal.
If you're a burger enthusiast, don't miss the Grass-Fed Burger or the Beyond Burger for a plant-based alternative. And, of course, there’s the Mesquite Chicken Sandwich and the Food Truck Burger for a savory and satisfying meal between two soft buns.
For sides, you can’t go wrong with the Mini Mac on Tap or classic French Fries, but if you're after something a little more unique, the Quinoa Rice and Green Beans offer a great alternative. Don't forget to pair your meal with a refreshing beer from their extensive selection—whether it’s a Crowler Canned Draft or a special seasonal brew.
