GG’s Bistro is an absolute gem in Laguna Beach! The food was incredible, the location couldn’t be more beautiful, and the restaurant itself has such a warm, inviting atmosphere. What truly made our experience unforgettable was the outstanding hospitality. Everyone made us feel so welcome—it honestly felt like we were sharing a meal with family. From the moment we walked in until the moment we left, the service was exceptional. If you’re looking for amazing food, a beautiful setting, and genuine hospitality, GG’s Bistro is a must-visit. We can’t wait to come back!

We visited GG’s Bistro for some Turkish and Mediterranean food. The atmosphere was very cute and cozy both inside and on the outdoor patio. It is a nice location by the ocean and a pleasant spot for lunch or dinner.
What we enjoyed
The Iskandar Kebab and Kofte we ordered were flavorful and prepared well. The menu offers a wide variety of choices including appetizers, meze, kebabs, and more. It is also good to see that they have gluten free options.
What could be better
The customer service was too slow. We waited a long time for our drinks and when they arrived one of the champagne glasses was dirty and had a fishy smell. We also ordered dessert but the baklava was not fresh. In addition, one of the Turkish coffee cups had a lipstick mark which was very disappointing.
Overall
The food tasted very good and the location is charming. However service and cleanliness need improvement. With faster service and better attention to detail this restaurant has the potential to be a much better experience.

Searched for Turkish coffee and found this gem at GG Bristol. It's tucked in the shopping center, so it takes a few steps to get there, but totally worth it. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. Had a great Turkish coffee and kunefe here – both were authentic and delicious! Highly recommend for anyone craving Mediterranean vibes in LA.

Was seated right away even on a busy weekend. I ordered a fresh salad with salmon and it was tasty! The service was very good, fast and efficient. It was a little on the pricier side I’d say for what I got, but I’d expect that from a more touristy area. Only complaint is that somewhere online said ocean views, and at least from what I saw- I definitely couldn’t see the ocean (buildings across the street all in the way. All in all, though, I’d recommend / come back!
