We have passed by Dizz's for years and always said we need to go there. Finally we had an evening without any plans. Made a reservation and went 6pm on a Sunday evening, there was no close by parking as expected, once inside there were only a few tables with occupied. The service was excellent and at a relaxed pace. Reasonable priced wine by the bottle to start with along with fresh bread. The nightly specials was our choices: a beef filet and it was nicely cooked and presented, and the Mai Mai grilled. Both had nice favorable sauces, so if you don't like sauces mention it. The ambiance is eclectic, mix for 1940-50s decor, mismatched table services, added to the quirky menu. Being right on PCH there can be moments of loud cars and motorcycles, being a warm evening the windows were open, but even with soft music conversations were easy. Dessert was outstanding. Prices are a bit lower than many other places in Laguna Beach.
We've continually have enjoyed great service and well prepared food. this dinner we each ordered stroganoff: one chicken, one beef. the meal starts off with pate and vermouth. next we had a shared salad and an order of garlic bread. a well made margarita was on hand too. if you like cheesy garlic bread, get it! we were filled to the brim even though desserts are tempting so we returned the next night to share the whipped cream pie. another definite must have served on a pretty plate of fruit crème anglais (or melted ice cream, not sure which). it's a most unusual pie of whole strawberries in whipped cream nestled between two different crusts. highly recommended!! iykyk the atmosphere is like being in a cottage with comforting lighting with some tables offering an ocean view. our thanks to all!
Our party ordered two of the specials, Sand Dabs and Filet, both cooked perfectly. The fish was fork-tender and covered in a very tasty caper sauce and served with steamed carrots and rice. The Filet was cooked medium rare and honestly the best filet I've had. The knife slid through the meat like it was butter. The mushroom sauce was excellent. We were served by Dominic, the owner of this long-held family restaurant. His recommendations were excellent and his service beyond reproach. The restaurant is a funky place with low lighting situated right on PCH. There is no parking lot so you have to park on PCH which can be a little tricky as there is no sidewalk to the restaurant. I highly recommend Dizz's As Is if you're looking for a memorable meal.

Thank you so much Mike. This place is such a great vibe. Great location right next to Victoria Beach Southern California, Laguna Hills on PCH. I ordered the lobster roll and fries and you definitely must stop by and visit if you're in the area. outdoor patio with the bar must come visit there's also a great mother nature like outdoor patio seating, which is very Namaste later on that evening. I also tried the Chino, which was fabulous.
