Restaurant Reviews for Hannas Prime Steak

Hannas Prime Steak reservations Hannas Prime Steak

22195 El Paseo, Ste 110
Rancho Santa Margarita, CA 92688

Set in the heart of downtown Rancho Santa Margarita and located across the street from the City Hall, Hannas Prime Steak offers a new culinary sensation to our new and vibrant city. Owner and Orange County native David Hanna, also original owner of Haute Caffe, is an experienced restaurateur and a long time resident of Rancho Santa Margarita. Dave saw the need to create a new restaurant venture in Rancho Santa Margarita and his inspiration was due in part to the combination of his rich Mediterranean cultural influences, coupled with a new American approach.

Dining Style: Casual Dining
Price: $30 and under

Review 4 for Hannas Prime Steak

Overall Rating 5.0 out of 5 (Outstanding)
"Putting aside the fact that Dave Hanna is a gem of a human being, this is a great little restaurant. The food always very fresh and well prepared. There are plenty of servers, always professional and with great attitudes. There's a great vibe there. It's not cheap, but you definitely get what you pay for and there's no corkage fee! Seating is limited and it gets crowded so make reservations."

Review 6 for Hannas Prime Steak

Overall Rating 5.0 out of 5 (Outstanding)
"Predictable in a great way! Always a wonderful dining experience. We love dining in the bar where sports play in the background and there is a high energy crowd. If you prefer something a little quieter tuck yourself in the back of the dining room area. Make reservations or be prepared to wait on a Friday and Saturday night."

Review 7 for Hannas Prime Steak

Overall Rating 2.0 out of 5 (Fair)
"The food and service were very good. I made a reservation on line and while it was an early dinner time the initial table they wanted to give me was at the entrance to the bar. I was a very undesirable location and had to wait at least 10 minutes before I was given another table while there about 12 open tables in the restaurant."

Review 8 for Hannas Prime Steak

Overall Rating 5.0 out of 5 (Outstanding)
"We've been to Hanna's three times, once for lunch, one early dinner, and one dinner at 7 pm. Each had it's own charm, and each was exceptional. The food choices were plenty and the quality was top drawer. Different levels of dress were all in good taste. I don't hesitate to recommend it every chance I get. The cooking part of the food preparation is out front and in full view of half the seating area. It creates a level of inclusion in the process as you are so close that you can talk to the cooking staff. We are anxious to take friends and family with us the next time we go."

"The food was very good though a bit pricey. $28 for just three scallops was a bit much. The service and friendliness of the staff was exceptional. We are always happy to fina a local place in Mission Viejo that is a bit upscale since it's mostly fast food restaurants. We'll be back."

"We had a reservation for 8:00PM and were not seated until 8:30. It was frustrating because other people who had reservations were being seated before us. Although, they did offer us something to drink and an appetizer, I still didn't feel it was right to have to wait 30 minutes for a reservation. They just kept repeating "it will be just a minute", and to hear that for half an hour when you’re hungry is not acceptable in my opinion. The food was just okay. I will not be returning to this place any time soon."

"The food was very average, we thought for the quality, that each plate should be about $10 less than charged. The cheese plate was good and the mac-n-cheese was outstanding. Ribs flavorless and dry, ribeye was overcooked, and french dip not very good. Good ambiance and a good place for drinks, wouldn't recommend their dinner menu."
