food and drinks here are absolutely outstanding! The service was also a major key to this review. Our waiter was awesome, and very friendly. The hospitality here was a blessing. Definitely recommend coming In and giving it a shot

Great service, so cute inside and best of all, delicious food! The Brussels were really tasty, as was the prosciutto pizza. And the pomegranate margarita -- YES.

A very cozy outdoor pizzeria that sells verity of Neapolitan pizza in Cost Mesa. We went there for quick bite on a Saturday. Their service was great and their pies were solid. Would come here again

We have been to this restaurant twice and we really like it. We hope to explore other options on the menu soon but for now we have just ordered the same things. We ordered a 2 pizzas , one pepperoni , Margherita , their fall salad and a few drinks. Everything had been really good, solid both times. A plus is that my almost 4 year old really likes it, he eats the crust from our pizza, we order him pizza sauce and parmesan cheese, he is a picky guy but he wont ever eat a little caesars pizza. He likes good quality ingredients he can taste them, what can I say. They have somewhat of an odd parking situation, the first time we went we parked in their parking lot easily but the second time they had valet as the only option. They don't really have much parking to begin with but it was kind of annoying having to pay for parking only to have it parked exactly where I parked it last time for free. I just didn't get it. Overall we like the experience at the restaurant , the food is good and the service is great and friendly, we will continue to dine here.

Food : there's alot of great food on the menu . The pizza is my favorite in town . I drive from HB to Costa Mesa just for their pizza! My partner literally didn't want to return back unless the mushroom pizza was back on the menu . Needless to say it's one of our favorite items on the menu. Glad it's back !!! The risotto has been our least favorite. Drink menus , not my favorite. Would love mezcal and ginger beer on the menu . Service : Marissa is my favorite waitress at 2145 Ambience : great for date night and or with friends. It's definitely family friendly as well.

Really interesting place! I had no idea that this was also a venue that could be reserved for a wedding or some kind of event as well. Did not get to check that part out but it sounds lovely. I am not sure about the other side but where we were sitting and all, the parking is pretty tight which is pretty typical for Costa Mesa for some reason. So just be mindful of that! Walking in, they seemed pretty busy because they were getting ready for some reserved event, I think. We were seated in the patio which I actually enjoyed with the tree in the center. I liked the ambiance and I imagine in the evening with the candles lit, it could be very cute. My friend and I got our plates and utensils and they weren't washed the best so we just wiped them ourselves (probably could have asked for another set). But, minor mishaps for some reaaaaaally good food and a really awesome waitress. We got the Brussel Sprouts and they were so so good. The pomegranate and cashews and goat cheese with the roasted Brussel Sprouts were an amazing combo. Would definitely get that again. Also the pizza was really great quality. They definitely know what they are doing with their pizza. I would say the food in itself was awesome. Our server, Marissa is fantastic and great to talk to. Very kind and gave us great recommendations. I would give her and the food at 5/5 (10/10). I'd recommend this place to friends. It's pretty neat and the food is good.

2145 is a fantastic spot with a great happy hour menu and prices! We started with the goat cheese and garden salad, and it was the perfect way to kick off our meal. For our main, we ordered the margarita pizza with spicy marinara sauce--highly recommended. The pizza was delicious and easily shared between two. The service was excellent; our server provided some great recommendations that made our experience even better. The only downside is parking. We went on a weekday and lucked out with a spot, but I'd recommend being prepared to valet if it's busy. Overall, 2145 is definitely worth a visit!

My daughter's friend who is a local recommended 2145 Eats. We called and made reservations, requested patio seating we brought our daughter's dog. Server Luke and support staff was friendly and checked in on us! Food was delicious! Really enjoyed the tomato risotto! The cheesecake which was made on house was amazing! Parking on site! Highly recommend!
