Mollie’s - Santa Ana

Mollie is a treasure! And this location is lovely. The staff are as friendly and helpful as always. This was our first time at the State St location, since the closing of her restaurant on Coast Village rd after the mud slide. had the Lasagna Bolonese which was outstanding. And veal piccata, so delicious. The location is super easy with a parking structure just behind the restaurant. Access from Anamapu and walk through to state via small alley way. State St is closed to traffic to facilitate dinning on the street which is magical and the only positive I can say in this time of Covid Very safe, all are respecting the new practices and we need to get back to living life and enjoying Mollies exceptional good food!!! Enjoy

We always make sure we have time to dine at Mollie's when we are in town. It's one of our all time favorite restaurants. The bolognese is the best! Another favorite, Spaghetti ai Frutti di Mare

Very romantic spot for a date night outside on State Street. Food was good, service was great. Will go back again

Everything my wife and I ordered was authentic southern Italian style and very good. Get the meatballs. I loved meeting Mollie also. Felt like family. I also liked sitting outside and hope that this can continue. I cannot wait to go back

We love Mollie's crispelle, veal picatta and Caesar salad. The caprese tomato, mozzarella cheese, usually basil wasn't noteworthynot worth And wine prices are highno reasonable options lowest was in the range.Service was very uneven on a Thursday night, with no Mollie present. The host who also was a server was quite unwelcoming, not ready for us and clearly hadn't previewed the evening's reservations. Once we were seated at our table he asked if we wanted water, but never brought it. Another server finally came and asked the same question, brought the water, and took fine care of us the rest of the evening. Consistent service matters!The outdoor covered parklet was lovelywhite fence, artificial grass, magical lights. Well done
