Some of my favorites:
Chat Noir - Parisian style atmosphere. Head chef is David Wilhelm - amazing food for the prices - http://www.culinaryadventures.com/Pages/ChatNoir.html
Karl Strauss Brewery at Metropointe - Think upscale BJ's ... I really like this place for lunch, and there's a movie theatre right upstairs - http://www.karlstrauss.com
Maggianos - Nice Italian sit-down place ... huge portions, nobody makes it out of there without a doggy bag. And if they do, it's kind of gross they can eat that much - http://www.maggianos.com/
Little India - Your hole-in-the-wall Indian place at the corner of Bristol and Baker. Cheap lunch buffet that tastes good.
I think a bunch of us has hit up Little India and Karl Strauss for lunch a couple of times.
Lemme know if you're looking into any particular type of food in Costa Mesa. It's my hood!

Does anyone know if Maru Sushi still has half price sushi if you sit at the bar still? It's been so long since I've been there.

they all have menus in english, but it just might be harder to communicate with them. i've seen plenty of non-japanese people eat there. they're all open late so don't worry about the closing time.
