A friend was in town and wanted to meet for an early dinner. He was staying at a hotel near South Coast Plaza, so we decided to meet there and pick a place.
He had another place in mind, but he changed his mind once there. We were going to our cars to venture somewhere else when we saw Sessions West Coast Deli.
There was construction during our visit, and we almost missed Sessions.
We had to walk through a store to go inside. It's a hidden gem. I had never heard of them.
It is counter service. You order, and it is brought to your table. We were there at about 5:00 pm, and it was quiet. There wasn't a long line, but Eddie welcomed us to his register to place our order.
I'll add that my friend and I have known each other for over 15 years, and I'll find an opportunity to embarrass him. We have our Abbot & Costello skit down, and Eddie jumped right in!
I ordered The Perfect Burger: Double Chuck Patty, X-Special Sauce, Baby Gem Lettuce, Cheddar, Garlic Pickle, Shaved Red Onion, Sesame Brioche Bun. I added Avocado for a bit extra. They have a gluten-free bread option.
The space is relaxing, the food is delicious, and the service is excellent. If you are visiting South Coast Plaza, find it and look for Eddie. I'll be back to try other items on the menu.
