Food: Fair tastes with tiny servings

The Yellow Chilli Tustin offers a mixed bucket of dishes; some are creatively prepared and leave a good overall taste, although not perfect.

Furthermore, some view the menu as too expensive and requiring more inventive additions.

Vibe: Attractive and buzzing romance

The ambiance at The Yellow Chilli Tustin is unanimously appreciated. The stylish decor and cozy atmosphere significantly enhance the dining experience, making it an excellent choice for date nights with its intimate setting. The elegant design and attractive atmosphere are highly instagrammable, enriching the overall buzz. An extensive variety of creatively mixed cocktails adds to this ambiance.

  • Great Ambiance

    Elegant, stylish decor and cozy atmosphere enhance dining experience significantly.

Perks: Ambience ruined by poor amenities

Devastatingly, the perks offered by The Yellow Chilli Tustin fall short. Especially on weekends, parking becomes a mad scramble. The incredibly high noise levels strain conversations, worsening the dining experience. Despite the ability to accommodate large groups, the outdoor seating by the road lacks privacy, and the inhaling car exhaust is a noticeable downside. Service appears slow, with complaints of rude staff, making a poor impression.

  • Great For Diets

    Many reviews praise the ample vegetarian options and flexible dining.

  • Bad For Kids

    Only one highchair available; not suitable for dining with multiple kids.
