Flecha Cantina

It was one of the best restaurant experiences I have ever had. Greeted by a smiling face and a margarita on the house. The space is very open and beautiful... like a tropical jungle. Me and my mother really enjoyed this restaurant. Complimentary chips and salsa boy was it packed with flavor. I knew then that if the chips and salsa were that good, I was in for a treat. We order the quesa birria tacos as a little appetizer for us. Talking about so much flavor, they were really good. For our entrees, my mom ordered the carnitas lunch plate, which was pretty massive for a lunch portion(we said we couldn't imagine what a full entree looked like). I got the pablano pesto enchiladas, but I substituted for chicken because im not a big seafood fan. Both dishes were packed full of flavor. Bot came with a side of rice and beans, which I never touched at restaurants, but these were made extremely well. The rice is very traditional and flavorful. The beans were seasoned well and had so much flavor. Our waitress actually brought the chef to our table so we could tell him how much we enjoyed the food. I gotta be honest I was nervous because when celebrities open restaurants, sometimes they dont put in the time. After talking to the waitress she told us Mark frequent there and engages with the staff. Also, it makes sure everything is up to standard. You can tell he did the work and research to make this place as amazing as it it. Definitely will be back 10 outta 10.

Just got a chance to enjoy the Sunday Brunch that is offered and I must say..WOW! I am truly impressed by Skye and her team of managers notably Faith and Edwardo (Eddie). The staff and service is impeccable and only adds to the Sunday Brunch buffet. There is a lot to enjoy including the main buffet, the taco station, the omelet station, the salad station, the dessert station, dessert table, starter table and drink station. All of this is included in the Sunday Brunch so leave room to try everything the first time you come (I already know there will be a second and third). One tip get the Sunday mimosa which comes with a bottle of sparkly and your choice of beverage to pour in. Second tip is to either valet park or park in the garage structure. There is a front parking, but read the signs because you are limited to 90 minutes after which they will ticket you (and you definitely do want to take your time and enjoy the day). Coming to Fletcha and sitting outside on the terasse, feels like going to Cuba or some other tropical island for a vacation without ever leaving the OC. First impressions do matter. From the moment you walk in and are greeted with a welcome drink to the minute you leave…there is no mistaken that you are very well served. Beautifully decorated Mexican restaurant that is partially owned by Mark Walhberg. The dishes here are tacos, guacamole, burritos and other staple Mexican dishes, but raised to a finer level that justifies the cost. Plating is exquisite and very visually appealing. As for taste…some of the best tacos I’ve recently sampled. From the free nachos to the definitely try once table side made guac, you can taste the crispiness of the chips and tailor the guac to your liking. Drink prices are on par with other places as are the prices per plate. One tip…there is a daily happy hour and on Tuesday’s an all day taco special. Another tip…there’s free valet parking (tip not included) if you don’t wanna keep circling or don’t wanna park in the structure. Final tip…have a drink at the bar while waiting for a table and if it’s nice get a table on the patio.

I loved the atmosphere inside the restaurant. After a long and tiring drive, I stopped by just briefly to relax and enjoy a cup of coffee. The staff member who took care of my table surprised me with such a thoughtful and heartwarming Christmas gift, thank you so much. It truly made us feel the warmth of the Christmas season. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, and the restaurant has such a wonderful, comfortable atmosphere. I will definitely stop by again.

This place was great! Gina was our server and she made our first visit so much better. She was very kind and friendly as well as quick with service. The food was great. Went during happy hour so decided to get a bunch of small plates to have variety. The goat cheese is a must try! It was absolutely delicious. Queso fundido was good as well. I'll definitely be back and I hope Gina is our server again! Highly recommend.

Fletcha is an absolute gem—equal parts urban jungle and industrial chic. The space is stunning, with an open floor plan that feels both spacious and inviting. Lush greenery spills from shelves and corners, perfectly offset by sleek metal fixtures and warm Edison bulb lighting. The vibe is relaxed yet stylish, and the huge outdoor patio is ideal for large groups. The drinks were phenomenal—expertly crafted and full of flavor. We loved the extra touch with the floating rubber ducky with sombrero in our margarita. It We ordered enchiladas, and they did not disappoint. My husband is very particular about red enchilada sauce, and he couldn't stop raving about how rich and flavorful theirs was. The beans were just as impressive—perfectly seasoned and creamy. Unfortunately, there was a misstep with the rice, which had cilantro in it despite us clearly stating my husband has a cilantro allergy. We caught it after a few bites, which was concerning, but thankfully no serious reaction followed. Despite that hiccup, the overall experience was excellent, and we’re already planning to come back—often. Great food, great drinks, and a truly beautiful space.

First time I was here was at their Vegas location for my birthday and it was the best experience ever. I decided to go here to take my former boss for her birthday and this location was amazing as well!!!! This was formerly Puesto and it was so gorgeous inside. I got welcomed with complimentary guava margarita and it was delicious, would actually order it as a drink. They had a cozy waiting area with comfy couches and heat lamps. The inside was so cozy and romantic, it was the perfect setting to celebrate. The food was amazing as usual. I wanted so many items but didn't want anything heavy so i ended up getting the sea bass. I wish it was a bigger portion because it was delicious. I could eat a whole portion of it!!! Definitely recommend it and the chips and salsa were perfect. Everyone loved their food and loved the atmosphere. Even the bathrooms were beautiful

Flecha in Huntington Beach delivers solid Mexican fare in a relaxed, casual setting. On our recent visit, my wife ordered the trio of street tacos—each one packed with good flavor and seasoned well. The meats were tender, and the tortillas held up nicely without getting soggy, which we appreciated. I went with the carne asada torta, and it didn’t disappoint. The bread was fresh, and the steak was juicy and flavorful, balanced well with beans, avocado, and just the right kick of spice. We both had micheladas, and they were done right—cold, crisp, and with a bold, tangy mix that had just enough spice without being overpowering. It’s always a good sign when a place nails the basics, and their micheladas hit the spot perfectly with our meals. As for the service, it was just okay. Our server wasn’t rude, but didn’t go out of their way to be attentive or engaging either. Nothing major to complain about, but nothing memorable either. Still, if you’re looking for a good spot in HB to grab some tasty tacos, a hearty torta, and a solid michelada, Flecha is a reliable choice. We’d come back for the food and drinks alone.

We walked in and were welcomed with a taster sized mango margarita... very nice. We sat at the bar and the bartender was super sweet and gave us excellent service. The chips were warm and the salsa so tasty!! We shared the Birria Lamb... sooo good!! It came with pickled veggies, tortillas, cheese, bean... it came with rice but we asked to skip the rice. Will definitely be back to try some of their other items.
