The 50 best cheap eats in Orange

Not many vegetarian options. Besides a desert waffle or a breakfast burrito. There's a goat cheese sandwich on the online menu but not on the actual menu and its not served. I asked the server about vegetarian options and she said this is mostly a chiken place so vegetarian is limited. I would go here mainly for desert. Waffles with syrup are awesome. Ordered a cold brew with foam and more than half of the cup was foam.

Awesome chicken and waffles 🧇 If you like sweet and can handle spicy food I recommend the Honey Hot chicken in a waffle bun. You really can't go wrong with anything here. Fast and friendly service with an outdoor atmosphere 👍

I have never really tried the waffles with the chicken. I was afraid I wouldn’t make it, but was I am wrong. It was amazing. They are pet friendly so I took my little French bulldog and they gave her a little pup cup. She gives it a paws up.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

I was in from out of town and looked at some spots with good reviews. I love chicken and waffles so I had to check out Bruxie. My wife and I ordered the original sandwich and the buttermilk fried chicken salad. They were both amazing! Tons of flavor and generous portions. But the real reason for 5 stars was a kid named Ruben who was working there. He helped us order and walked us through the menu. I told him I wanted fries but decided not to order them because I was feeling full from other meals. About 10 minutes into our meal Ruben walked over and set down some fries and said you gotta have these. It was a very thoughtful gesture and I thought his way of interacting and thoughtfulness made the night! I would hire him if I lived here in California. Give Ruben a raise because you don’t want to lose him anytime soon 👍

Had dinner at Bruxie in City of Orange. It's still great food and the atmospbere has a great small town vibe near Chapman University. The home architecture around here feels like the movie "Back to the future". Park next to Chapman Univ. As many street parking is for residents only.

They specialize in chicken and waffles, which they prepare to perfection. The waffles are crispy on the outside and warm and soft on the inside. The best in OC!! The strawberry waffles come with fresh berries and whipped cream. So good! The lemon-filled waffles are melt-in-your-mouth perfection. They have added several new items to their menu so check it out. Service is by cheerful staff who keep your coffee filled and the tables clean. The only downside is the location—it’s on a busy corner by Chapman University with only outside seating. They do have a mist system in the summer. It’s worth the drive and outside seating and noise—especially when you taste those dreamy waffles!!!

So chicken has a unique taste. It's actually quite good. However, the service is a little off and the last time I went there. I experienced unfair service. It is a college environment, so if you are a student, or teacher you will probably be well taken care of. But as for regular folk, you kind of just have to roll with the punches. Simply put, the teacher walked up after I ordered and explained that he was late for his class and his students were waiting. They put his order in front of mine. I did not appreciate that. I have an hour lunch. I work like everyone else and I would appreciate equal service. Also, there is no inside seating. There is just outside seating, when somebody lights a cigarette by the trash can and thinks that we can't smell it, that's a mistake.

We walked in and was immediately helped. They got our order and we were on our way. The food came ultra fast and was delicious. 5/5 highly recommended

We’ve been eating at Baja Fish Taco for almost 15 years. We love the quality of the food along with the great taste. I highly recommend getting the chicken or fish platter and a side of the chips and salsa. The different salsas are really tasty but the pickled onions steal the show.

Bought an order of their new shrimp ceviche and upon getting home I noticed the ridiculous portion they served me for $12. Seems like they used 3 shrimps with mostly veggies. Never going back again. My family and I were regulars but after this experience never again. Not worth $12 plus tax

Terrible customer service i have ordered countless times from this place and many times they get my order wrong and it’s always something so simple no cheese on tacos how hard is that to do. But today I’m done with this place after pretty much telling me I put cheese on my own tacos how crazy is that. I ordered 4 tacos as usual no cheese I asked the cashier IRMA no cheese and please make sure as they always get my order wrong and I’m allergic to cheese said ok. My order is ready she said she checked and make sure it had no cheese I take her word for it I get home I opened the tacos all 4 have cheese I call her back and asked her why my tacos had cheese when I told her to make sure the receipt said no cheese the bag said no cheese but the tacos have cheese. She said she was gonna check with her manager. She comes back on the phone and tell me she and her manager checked my order and the tacos had no cheese so practically telling me I put cheese on them my self how ridiculous is that. I told her so I put cheese on them my self right or got them from Taco Bell or another restaurant and want to waste my time returning them. She never accepted her mistake instead blame me the customer. She offered to remake the tacos but I’ve had enough cause like I said this is not the first time this has happened so I just wanted my money back and I will never recommend this place to anyone let alone order from this company again. Manager didn’t even bother talking me. Just terrible customer service. Hope my experience helps some folks. I was so furious i instantly went back and called that forgot to take pictures of the tacos and and receipt. The location of the place is the one on Bristol. I’m adding other pictures from a different time so you can see it’s not the first time

Best fish tacos and arguably some of the best tacos ive ever had! Ordered the ensenada style fish tacos added some lime and green salsa and delicious!

They have the most amazing veggie burrito. Make sure you get your burrito Enchilada style , it’s the best. The staff are super friendly, very clean, beautiful ambience, and nice interior design.

Fast food like tacos. Black fish was very good and there were not a lot of beer options at the time. The tv screens are not nice and acoustic & music is mediocre.

I wanted to like this place. With all the hype. Everything thing I tried was just mid tier. The brisket was okay at best. The pork spare rib was really tender. The char siu was tender but lacked flavor. Cheddar jalapeno sausage was average. The brisket beans and mac & cheese were nothing special. Hot cucumber was overly salty. The people work there are great! The wait on a Saturday was just over an hour.

Smoked out Sundays done RIGHT! We hit up Heritage Barbecue in San Juan Capistrano to feast on BBQ. 🥩 Juicy brisket, massive dino ribs, tender pulled pork, spicy hot sausages, loaded nachos and fall-off-the-bone spare ribs — we feasted like true Texans... but in SoCal style. 🤠🍖 If you're a BBQ lover, this spot needs to be on your bucket list. Only downside was the almost 2 hours line.

Fantastic bbq that is tender and falls off the bone! Slow cooked in their smokers and has great flavor! Get there early because the line gets long! We got there about 15 min before they opened and waited an hour and a half but it was worth the wait. The owner is really nice, service is excellent and food is amazing. Definitely coming back.

A week ago we finally had a chance to try out @heritagebarbecue in @sanjuancapistrano (one of my SoCal favorite cities), and it was deliciously worth the almost 2 hour wait. On this visit we wanted to try out their Pulled pork and Brisket Sando, pulled pork Bahn Mi, Brisket beans, Pollo Asado, Elote, pickles, pickled cucumbers, and not pictured their amazing flour tortillas which won last years @kcrwgoodfood and @gustavo_arellano great tortilla tournament. Also while waiting in line I enjoyed an ice cold beer! Always check their business hours to see what time they open, and I highly recommended you get there an hour early before they open, and make it a day there, lots of things to see, do, and enjoy. #foodie #whatchefsliketoeat #bbq #heritagebbq #michelinbibgourmand #foodporn #bbqporn #sandwiches #pulledpork #brisket #polloasado #delicious #sanjuancapistrano #california

The food is great 😊 we ordered beef rib pulled pork, spareribs all three were fantastic, soft all of the bone juicy 🤤 We ordered the macaroni and cheese, brisket, beans, and a corn my total was 167$ Not including the three beers, lemonade, and mango seltzer and a water bottle. We waited in line for about an hour and 10 minutes just to order and maybe like 10/15 to receive your platter We did get there around 1 and they were already sold out of their beef, brisket and some other items

Fantastic staff and clearly passionate about what they do. Exceptional BBQ craftsmanship behind the windows which is awesome. The flavors are outstanding and everything is made with such care. I highly recommend stopping by if you are in the area. My only regret is not being here through the weekend to try their specials.

Best bbq anywhere, we had the brisket, pork ribs, spicy cucumbers, and rib tips beans. Waited 1 hour in line to order but absolutely worth it. We'll organized and friendly staff, parking can be difficult.

Tacos Los Cholos - Loaded Tacos, Lethal Salsas. In a world where Taco Bell and Chipotle have become synonymous with ‘Mexican’ food, one begins to wonder - is there still room for a more authentic take on the humble taco? It’s a Thursday night. The carpark’s looking like a game of Vehicular Tetris, while a line of hungry bystanders trail haphazardly out the door and onto the footpath. The restaurant itself is intimidatingly busy. Between hurried waitstaff weaving between riotous patrons, the bustling self-serve stations and orders being called out constantly, there’s an awful lot to take in. It’s loud, rambunctious, and in your face - but that’s all very fitting considering the food being served; after all, what good taco isn’t bold, punchy and a blow to the senses? Inside, the interior looks a little gaudy, even tacky. Animated flames lick the menu screens, with eclectic font choices evoking memories of a junior high’s PowerPoint presentation (WordArt is still cool okay!). Despite the.. inspired design choice and general flair, the menu presents a ridiculous number of items on offer - while impressive, it’s undoubtedly overwhelming for newcomers and indecisive patrons alike. Saying that, with 14 protein options for tacos alone, there’s bound to be something for everyone, even if the average patron has no idea how to pronounce half of them. Even for those of us familiar with the more authentic side of Mexican cuisine (and I’ve eaten my way through Chipotle’s menu, so I’m obviously well versed.. right?) the first bite of the tacos here is a near religious experience. Savoury, and zingy - with each bite a revelation, and every note hitting perfectly in this salacious symphony of salsas and spices. With mountainous mounds of meat atop each taco, it’s no wonder they’re cradled by double tortillas - there’s more than enough fillings for an extra taco with what drops out while they’re being lovingly obliterated by the hungry hordes. Needless to say, you won’t leave hungry - as if with food this good you’d want to leave at all. Naively, I thought I had a grasp on Mexican food before now, but little did I know I was about to transcend to a higher plane of existence, where the humble taco is elevated to something closer to a taste of heaven than the soggy $2 slop most have settled for on a night out. The self serve saucing station is a spectacle in itself - with 6-8 salsas along with a lineup of traditional taco accoutrements, pure bliss is only a spoonful away. It’s a savoury pick’n’mix for the indecisive looking to level up their taco game, and man, does it ever deliver. Each salsa hits hard in its own way - no weak links, just liquid gold with a punch, every single one. But such praise comes with equal warning; select your (sadistically unlabelled) sauces carefully - while all are undoubtedly delicious, some will truly have you walking that fine line between pleasure and pain with heat levels ranging from the gentle warmth of a lover’s embrace, all the way to face-melting regret in salsa form. I tell ya, I’ve met the devil and I’ve tasted the fires of hell, fresh from the Taco Los Cholos’ sauce station. It’s a testament to just how damn good the food is though, that despite the chaos within, the crowds keep coming - and really, that’s all part of the experience. Whether ordering to-go or eating in, there’s a buzz in the air, and you can’t help but be drawn in to the full throttle fiesta that is Tacos Los Cholos. Say ciao to Chipotle, and ta-ta to Taco Bell; instead, treat yourself to a little TLC at Tacos Los Cholos.

Tacos Los Cholos Review Every time I pass by Tacos Los Cholos, I notice the line wrapped around the block, with every seat taken and no standing room available. The parking lot is always packed, which is a clear sign of a bustling business. Intrigued by the hype, I decided to arrive at 10:30 AM to be one of the first in line when they opened at 11:00. Unfortunately, my excitement quickly turned to disappointment. Despite trying a premium taco to give it a fair chance, I found the meat lacking. On the bright side, the salsa and poblano chili were delicious—definitely a highlight of the meal. The wait for my order was quick, and I must say, the salsa bar is outstanding. However, will I be returning? I don't think so. While I understand that everyone has different tastes when it comes to tacos, these just didn't resonate with me. Their salsa is so good I could drink it, but ultimately, the large size of the tacos doesn't matter much if I don't enjoy the main ingredient. To each their own, but that was my experience.

The food here is excellent honestly, some of the best tacos in the area. The flavors are authentic, and everything is worth trying. The staff is always friendly and works hard to keep up with the rush. That said, be prepared for long waits. On a regular day, it can take around 20 minutes to order and another 15 minutes to get your food. On weekends, the line can stretch to an hour or more, and seating becomes very limited. Because it gets so busy, cleanliness isn't always at its best, though the staff does their best given the volume of customers. Parking is also limited, so it can take a bit of patience to find a spot. Overall, the food makes it worth it, but just plan ahead for the wait and the crowd.

The best tacos so far. Can't get enough of their soft chewy tortillas. And the meats? Cooked to perfection over blazing coals especially the tripas which was surprisingly good paired with the salsa and the works. Oh so good!!

Randomly discovered this place and was seriously impressed by the food! I ordered the asada flour burrito and the baked stuffed potato with skirt steak, both were packed with flavor. The BBQ on the meat was incredible, adding a rich, smoky taste that really stood out. I also tried the beef rib taco, which was equally delicious. I topped some bites with the orange-colored sauce from the sauce station, highly recommend giving that a try. Definitely ordered more than I could finish, but everything looked too good to pass up. Worth every bite! This place is super busy, tons of people but the wait was not bad.

Simply delishisimo, my to go for tacos & burrito place. The foods are just tasty, greatly marinated and well cook, juicy and tender. The portion is just double than what you would expected, I could made 3 tacos out of 1 taco with generous meat portion. They have 3 levels of meat for you to choose and the prices are from $2+ and up to $17+ for a taco and more for others. Worth it, but I have not try the top tier yet…just the 1st 2. Service here is fantastic, they are all very nice, friendly and very helpful when you don’t know what the dish is. Order part is easy, except for the line. It can be 20-30mins long if you come in during the rush hrs or holidays - we got lucky most of the time since we can abit off hr, and 10mins prior the open time. Parking is durable since it’s their own parking lot but you might have to wait for park a block away on street parking when it packs. They do have indoor and outdoor sitting with fans and TVs with sports and music too. They also do have 2 self serve condiments stations and they have various choices of level of salsa plus side pickles veggies and fresh veggies too and they all very yummy. Can’t wait til next time.

Lets cut to the chase — the food at Tacos Los Cholos is crazy good. We ordered asada, pollo and adobada tacos and stacked them up with onion, cilantro and salsas from the salsa bar. All the tacos were awesome, but the real standout was the rice and beans. It's such a simple dish, but done right. The aguas de sandia and piña were refreshing and on point too. Prices can get expensive if you only order the "premium" or "prime" items. Cash is king and will also save you some money. The place looks kind of ragged, but I think that's the look they're going for. There was an armed guard standing by the door. I don't know if this place gets rowdy at night, but everyone was chill around noon Parking can be a pain. It was semi clean (due LOTS of people) and the staff were friendly.

First time and wow, I really recommend it, I can't wait to return. Great atmosphere, perfect location, and very friendly people. I really recommend coming with family or friends to a casual place for a breakfast that will leave you feeling full.

Food was very good and came out at a very decent time for a big group. Only complaint was that they took excessively long to deliver a single extra pancake (at the time where everyone was about to leave), and the service was a tiny bit (though understandably) grumpy, but the place looks super nice and had fair prices.

Not knocking this place at all… Not bad. But not worth the money spent for the amount of food was my rating reason. The food was, good, not amazing. But it came out really fast and was on the smaller side. Outside seating was nice and the staff were friendly and courteous. There are a few really good breakfast / brunch spots on Main. This one just didn’t grab us with the return soon feel. Maybe someday.

I love my first visit here won't be my last I got the eggs Benedict. The owner is super nice and the grandkids are the one serving the coffee . Funny fact is some of the dishes are named after the grandchildren.

The best place after a surfing session! I’m from Italy and It was my first time in Huntington Beach. I was looking for a place for breakfast/brunch and here I found a great atmosphere and a lot of kindness. The burrito was big, tasty and amazing, served with smashed potatoes. I was so full and satisfied. The location is perfect and I really liked the staff. You can’t miss it if you are around!

Great place for kids and just to meet up. Bathroom is clean, food is fresh, atmosphere is great and overall, this is a great breakfast place. Sometimes there’s a wait but none today. Workers are really nice and if you’re hungry after a good surf, this is a great spot. Place looks clean and shirts are a good price. Overall I would give this an easy 10/10.

Best breakfast and breakfast spot in the area and competes solidly with the best breakfasts in Los Angeles, Orange, and San Diego counties. Home/Diner Style vs. brunch. NO ALCOHOL. The hamburger does not compare to Crack Burger in Long Beach.

The reviews for this restaurant are all over the place so I recommend trying for yourself at least once. Is it expensive? YES. Could the service be better? YES. But was the food good? Absolutely YES! My chicken was so juicy- it was some of the best I've ever had. And the waffle had great flavor with the perfect amount of sweetness. My daughter was no where near as impressed with her chicken tenders, so keep that in mind. Also, be aware that they don't split checks and they charge a 3% fee if paying with a card. Still worth a visit!

The service was terrible. The waiter never introduced his name and had to keep asking for things multiple times. Never wrote down the order and got it wrong! Hair in my Lemonade!! When I asked for a replacement and it off my check, this never happened for me! Terrible atmosphere. Waitstaff and Hostess Rude! I had a horrible time! The food was okay but had to keep sending it back because something was off or wasn’t hot! Horrible!!!!

I’ve been to Roscoe’s in Anaheim several times over the years, and the food is always good. It never disappoints. The chicken and waffles hit the spot every time. On this visit, our server was a little slower than I’d like, but it wasn’t a big issue and didn’t take away from the overall experience. Always a solid choice when I’m in the area.

If happiness had a flavor, it would taste like Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffles! I ordered the classic #1 combo, and oh wow—crispy, golden fried chicken paired with fluffy, buttery waffles that could make anyone smile. It’s the perfect sweet-and-savory duo that just hits right. The service was quick and friendly, and the whole place has that warm, family-friendly vibe that makes you want to stay a while (and maybe order seconds). Everyone seemed to be having a good time, and honestly, it’s easy to see why—Roscoe’s is pure comfort food magic. If you haven’t been yet, grab your friends, your family, or just your appetite—Roscoe’s is the real deal!

Love the murals and the menu happened to be 50% off when we went. I opted for the red beans and rice as well as the corn bread and cabbage. 🔥🔥🔥Also, several folks were celebrating their birthdays and the staff sang to them🎈🎈🎈

No wait in the evening time had a great meal with family. Waiter was professional and checked on us several times. Chicken and waffles were perfect as usual and made a perfect evening. Thanks to all the staff 👍👌

As a east coast person traveling to disney land from my stop in san diego I had to try Roscoe's we of course tried their waffles and chicken. For the most part the food was great service was decent and everyone left with bellies full. Maybe too full. My Brother in law drank the gravy.... who does that. It hit us hard after a lot of traveling. Would recommend.

This restaurant is extremely popular, expect to be on the waitlist for over two hours, even on weekdays. The staff was welcoming and friendly, which made the experience more pleasant. As for the food, it was okay, but in my opinion, the hype doesn't quite match the quality. It's worth trying once, but I wouldn’t wait that long again just for the food.

Visited Din Tai Fung in Costa Mesa for dinner during our Orange County weekend getaway, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The restaurant has a beautiful, lively atmosphere — modern yet warm, with great attention to detail in both decor and service. We ordered everything vegetarian, and every dish exceeded expectations. The vegan dumplings were perfectly steamed, light, and packed with flavor. The noodles had just the right texture, and the fried rice was simple yet delicious, full of freshness and balance. For dessert, we went with their chocolate baos — I don’t recall the exact name, but they were like warm dumplings filled with melted chocolate, and honestly, they were heavenly! It’s a dessert you must not miss if you visit. The staff was attentive and polite, ensuring we had a smooth experience despite the restaurant being busy. The service, food quality, and overall ambiance made it one of the most memorable meals of the trip. If you’re visiting Costa Mesa or nearby areas, Din Tai Fung is absolutely worth the stop — perfect for a cozy dinner or a special night out. Must-try: Vegan Dumplings & Chocolate Baos

We went in a big group and absolutely loved it. We tried so many dishes, I can’t even name them all here. When we first sat down, they got us some short ribs and cucumbers to apologize for the long wait. We had reservations and we still waited over 30 minutes to get our table. Well worth it. Once we were seated, everything was delicious and we were treated very well. The mango shave, ice dessert was unexpected and delicious. Can’t wait to go back.

Fantastic experience at Din Tai Fung! The variety of dishes is impressive, and everything we tried was fresh and flavorful. The staff was incredibly warm and attentive, making the whole visit even more enjoyable. My favorite was definitely the xiaolongbao — perfectly delicate and full of flavor. Can’t wait to come back!

The staff here is absolutely excellent. They work well together, they’re kind, and extremely attentive. The atmosphere is beautiful and even though this location is busy I’ve never had to wait for too long to be seated and they also have open seating at the bar. The food is pretty good but for the price I will say I’ve had better. But as far as consistency and quality is concerned it is definitely worth a visit.

I understand the hype now. Was my first time there after my wife kept raving about this place. Food was delicious, our server was so professional, items came out timely and overall a great experience. Make sure you get on the waitlist list 1 to 2 hours earlier than you’d like to eat!

This was my first time at Din Tai Fung and I went with my cousin who has been there before. If you know anything about Din Tai Fung, you know it’s very popular and because I went during lunch time, it was very busy so just make sure you make a reservation shortly before you arrive so the wait time is lower! While we waited, we were given a menu to look over what we wanted to order. The staff were very kind! One of the waiters was telling us a story while he seated us and another came by often to take our empty dishes and taught us how to create a special sauce for our dumplings. They were very patient and made the experience very memorable! The place itself was nicely decorated and very clean as well! Onto the food, my cousin helped me decide what to order. We ordered the: cucumber salad, sweet & sour pork baby back ribs, kurobuta pork xiao long bao, chicken spicy dumplings, and chicken fried rice. Each dish was so good but the korubuta pork xiao long bao definitely takes the cake. I ate it exactly how the instructions told me to and it made the experience 10x better. I felt like a food enthusiast with the way I was carefully eating these dumplings. The dishes my cousin and I ordered fit well together. Out of them all, I think the chicken fried rice was the least impressive just because I felt it lacked something. I couldn’t tell you what but I think I just expected a little more given that the other dishes had a certain uniqueness that the fried rice didn’t have. Overall, I had a really good experience here and would definitely come back. I miss the kurobuta pork xiao long bao.. I recommend this place!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Porto’s Bakery – Buena Park, CA Porto’s Bakery in Buena Park is truly one of my favorite places to visit whenever I’m in Southern California! From the moment you walk in, the aroma of freshly baked pastries and coffee instantly makes you smile. The display cases are filled with irresistible treats—my personal favorites are the guava pastries, cheese rolls, and of course, the famous potato balls. Everything tastes fresh, flavorful, and made with love. Even though Porto’s is incredibly popular and always busy, the customer service is exceptional. The staff is friendly, efficient, and there are always plenty of them to keep things moving quickly. The line might look long, but it moves fast thanks to how well organized everything is. The establishment is spotless, from the counters to the cafe area, and it’s such a comfortable place to sit and enjoy your coffee and pastries. Speaking of coffee—theirs is delicious and pairs perfectly with any of their baked goods. Parking can get a little crowded, especially on weekends, but it’s worth it every time. Porto’s is a true Southern California staple—a must-visit for anyone who loves great food, great service, and an all-around delightful experience!

We can't leave California without visiting PORTO'S - IYKYK!!! The guaranteed long lines, no matter when you go confirms how incredibly good this bakery is! Prices are very reasonable and bakery items are heavenly made. It really is that good! We got the coffee cake this time as well as their signature guava pastries and everything else on the menu, lol. This is a 10000% cheat day that's well worth it! Ordered a vanilla chai Latte which was perfect. They have an efficient system to take your order. Plenty of seating and staff is sweet! Which we had this on the east coast.

We are not from the area and were told we are absolutely in need of this place in our life. Let me tell you……whoooooooweeeeee. Life changer this place absolutely ROCKS!!’ The potato balls were legit. The croissant were so soft and buttery…….the cheese danish were delicious…….now I understand the Hype and it’s REAL!!!!!!

This location is one of my favorites because of the size, the staff and the vibe. There are 2 lines to accommodate the demand of these delicious pastries. Famous Cuban bakery with massive menu of drinks, food and sweets. My recommendation: Cheese roll Potato balls Croquette Danishes.

114/10 My first time at this spot(Buena Park), we ordered cheese rolls, guava pie and Cubano (Cuban Sandwich). The Cubano comes with plantain chips, crispy! I really like the Cubano, the meat is flavorful and the portion is big, can share with two people. The guava pie is just sweet, not my jam. The cheese rolls are my all time favorite, classical comfort food! We also bump into a Labubu meet up group haha, they are so cute!!

Portos is great, bakery, drink, everything. Only one thing that needs huge improvement... traffic. If ever they are reading this review, put several staffs at the parking lot (or the exit) to help with traffic in and out. I am sure they can afford or spare several people to do that. FYI, average wait time for bakery is about 25 - 40 mins at least on weekend.

Went to Buena Park location on Saturday morning. Line outside to get in. It was not too bad of wait lines moves quickly. All the counters I went to order/pick up were all quick. Everyone know what they are doing. Great customer service! Picked up 6 dozens cheese rolls, 2 dozens guava cheese, 2 dozens dulcet de leche besito cookies for work trip to out of state. Got breakfast sandwich and guava juice. Everything always great at Portos! I wish there are more locations. Hopefully one day they'll expend to San Diego, airports and other states!

Celebrated an early Mother’s Day with the fam, so guess what I’m bringing?! Strawberry croissants! Parking: There’s a large parking lot, but it’s always busy here, so finding a spot can be somewhat difficult. Ambiance/Environment: They’re always poppin, and yes there’ll be a line. There’s signs everywhere asking for the door to remain closed if there’s a line. Make sure you’re not one of those people that can’t read and leave the door open. It’s pretty small inside. No indoor seating. They do have a small outdoor seating area. Service: Throughput was surprisingly quick for how long the line was. Shout out to the hard working women there. They’re quick & efficient. They do have a heavy accent, and it could be difficult to understand them. Pastries & coffee: We ordered the strawberry croissants, caramel mocha latte, and white chocolate mocha latte. The strawberry croissants are the reasons why we always come back. Love how airy and perfectly crisp their croissants are. The filling isn’t too sweet, and the strawberries are fresh. The lattes were okay .. I saw that they actually make their espressos by hand. The caramel mocha was sweet, of course. The white chocolate mocha was decent. Both could use a stronger coffee taste bc it was pretty light. Pricing: The croissants are expensive, but definitely worth it for any occasion. Will be back to try their other pastries and coffee!

A Must-Visit Bakery Gem — Consistent, Fresh & Always Delicious! After my morning run today, I decided to stop by Cream Pan, one of my all-time favorite bakeries. I’ve been here several times, and I can confidently say I’ve never had a bad experience. The moment you walk in, you’re greeted with the most amazing aroma of freshly baked bread and pastries. The staff is always warm and friendly, and the display cases are filled with everything from sushi rolls and sandwiches to pastries, cakes, and desserts it’s impossible not to find something tempting. I first discovered Cream Pan thanks to my brother when we were in California for my wedding. He stopped by to grab some snacks, and that’s where my love for this place began. We picked up the crispy chicken sandwich, the turkey avocado sandwich, the strawberry and cream sandwich, and of course, the famous olive bread with dipping olive oil and wow, that olive bread is what won me over! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made. Since then, I’ve been back several times, and the consistency has been impressive. My favorite item is definitely the turkey avocado sandwich, followed closely by the crispy chicken sandwich. There was one time my olive bread came out slightly burnt, but every visit after that has been perfect they really do pay attention to quality. Today marked my fourth visit, though I arrived a bit late in the afternoon, so many items were already sold out (a good sign of how popular this place is!). They were out of the turkey avocado sandwich, but one of the sweetest employees recommended their egg sandwich, saying it’s a customer favorite. I also decided to finally try their famous strawberry croissant with custard. Both were incredible. The egg sandwich was light, creamy, and super fresh one side had tomato, the other cucumber, giving it the perfect balance of texture and flavor. The strawberry croissant was pure heaven flaky pastry, smooth custard that wasn’t overly sweet, and fresh strawberries dusted with powdered sugar on top. Everything about it was perfect. My mom also loves Cream Pan every time I fly back home to Miami, she makes sure I bring her the olive bread. It’s become our little family tradition now. Overall, Cream Pan is a solid 10/10. The food is consistently delicious, the staff is kind, and the atmosphere is cozy and inviting. It’s one of those rare bakeries that truly lives up to its reputation. Can’t wait to come back and try more from their menu!

Cream Pan Bakery in Tustin offers an impressive selection of fresh bakery items and light meals. Their menu includes a range of sandwiches such as katsu, along with sushi rolls and other Japanese-inspired dishes. Service is consistently quick, prices are reasonable, and the outdoor patio adds to the relaxed atmosphere. Ample parking makes it convenient, though weekend lines can be quite long — a testament to their popularity.

The pastry was good! Fresh, tasty, and well made. You can tell they use quality ingredients. I would definitely come back to try more.

Mediocrity in dessert form: Strawberry croissant: - fruit: no different from what you’d get at Walmart, not sweet, not very fragrant - cream: liquidity, not much happening besides “vanilla” - pastry: same quality as you’d get by buying frozen buff pastry and rolling them before baking Cake roll: - still frozen - yet still somehow still freaking dry (honestly impressive) Pudding: - best of the bunch, vanilla flavor was artificial, too much egg flavor (not the creaminess of yolk, the unpleasant flavor of egg white) Service: bunch of people who couldn’t be bothered, which, let’s be honest given the shitty interior and what they’re probably paid? Fair. All of you praising this place to high heaven, so envious you can be so happy with such low effort products 👌

Delicious pastry with very reasonable price. Lots of other options such as sandos and sushi. This is a hidden gem. My favorite is the raisin toast.

I’ve been coming to Cream Pan for years. The ambiance has always been the same, simple, easy, and welcoming, with lots of fresh food to choose from. It’s been one of the reasons I’ve continued to support them, a reliable go-to spot with consistently good offerings. But today’s experience left me really disappointed. I had purchased some food and a hot large latte, but with errands and a lot on my mind, I accidentally left the drink behind. I called the store shortly after to apologize and let them know I’d be back to pick it up later, or if it was okay for one of my staff members to do so. The first person who answered the phone was extremely rude and dismissive. She gave me clear attitude, made me feel like I was bothering her, and without a word, threw the call to someone else. Thankfully, the second person was kind, professional, and helped me resolve the situation, but the treatment I received initially was uncalled for. The staff was trying to protect one another because when I asked the second girl twice, who that first girl's name was, she wouldn't answer my question. I wasn’t demanding, I wasn’t rude. I even apologized for the inconvenience. I just don’t understand why I was met with that kind of energy, especially when I was just trying to communicate and find a simple solution. I really do love Cream Pan as a brand. But the customer service experience matters just as much as the food. It’s the experience that makes people want to return, and if it starts to feel disrespectful or dismissive, it’s hard to want to keep coming back. I’m disappointed, especially because I care about supporting small businesses. But if staff aren’t trained to treat customers with basic courtesy, it’s going to cost them in the long run.

I have been a loyal customer of Honda-Ya for over 20 years, consistently coming back because of the great memories and experiences I’ve had here. Today, I visited again with friends from Torrance and LA, while hosting from my home in Irvine. For me, Honda-Ya has always been more than just a restaurant—it’s been a place filled with memories. My wife and I had our very first date here, and it was also the very first restaurant I took my child to. This place has always carried a special meaning in my life. When it comes to the food, it was exactly as I remembered from my first visit two decades ago—comforting, consistent, and enjoyable. Unfortunately, the overall experience today was far from the Honda-Ya I have loved and supported for years. At some point during our meal, I couldn’t help but feel that we were being rushed to leave. Our plates were being cleared away before we were even finished, and without any prior notice, we were suddenly informed about a two-hour dining limit. It was frustrating to hear this not when we were seated or placing our first order, but in the middle of our dining experience, as if we were being hurried out. Only later, on our way out, did I see the posted notice about this policy. But by then, the damage was done. Basic courtesy and common sense would suggest that such an important rule should be communicated upfront, not enforced mid-meal in such an abrupt manner. What makes this experience even more disappointing is my history with this restaurant. During the pandemic, when I was worried Honda-Ya might not survive, I consistently ordered takeout every week to show support and do my part as a loyal customer. That was how much this restaurant meant to me. Tonight, the four of us spent $403 within two hours—easily the highest per-person spend I’ve made here in all these years. And yet, despite being among the most loyal of customers and spending generously, I felt I received the worst treatment I’ve ever experienced at Honda-Ya. It’s truly disheartening. I will always cherish the memories I’ve made here over the past two decades, but after tonight, I can no longer see myself coming back. In the end, what hurts the most is not the money spent, but realizing that the place I once considered special no longer feels the same.

I had a craving for yakitori and decided to revisit Honda-Ya in Tustin. It’s been years since my last visit, but the food and energy here still hit all the right notes. We came around 8:30 PM and the wait for two was about 25 minutes — not bad considering how packed it can get. The ambiance is cozy and bustling, with warm lantern lighting, wooden decor, and that nostalgic izakaya charm. You can hear the faint sizzle from the grill and laughter from nearby tables, which just adds to the whole experience. We sat at the bar and ordered a mix of skewers: chicken thigh with sauce, shishito peppers, quail eggs, scallops, pork belly, and a few adventurous organ meats. Everything came out perfectly charred and juicy. The chicken thigh with sauce and shishito peppers were absolute standouts — smoky, flavorful, and addictive. The bacon-wrapped tomato remains a classic favorite, bursting with flavor that balances perfectly with the saltiness of the meat. To pair with the skewers, I had the Honda-Ya Original Beer — malty, smooth, and without a bitter aftertaste. It complemented the food perfectly. Service was quick and friendly, even with how busy it was. Skewers were an easy 5/5, ambiance 4.5/5, and service 5/5. Prices are on the steeper side for yakitori, but given the quality and atmosphere, it’s well worth an occasional visit. Pro tip: sit at the bar for the best experience — you get to watch the chefs work their magic right over the grill.

I love this place so much. I came here 3xs already. I took my family here especially my mom was so excited to have some dishes that you couldn't find at any other resturants like this place. It reminded me of back home in Okinawa. It's so hard ti find a good Okinawa resturant. It took me way back. My mom was even delighted. We ordered so much and highly recommend everything here. The customer service is amazing. Auntie that works here she's super sweet and she's so attentive. Very good hospitality. She just adds to the experience. She ensured we were well taken care of. We sat in the tatami room. So warning to those who have a bad knee or weak back. But it's a pleasant experience. The quality and price of the food is great affordable. And if your looking to have a good time and enjoy yourself whether it be with friends, on a date, or with family highly recommend you will feel like your part of the family coming here. Can't wait to go back because the food just melts in your melt..so delicious.

Pretty busy restaurant. We waited almost an hour for a table. Once we were seated, the waitress was able to take our order and bring out the food. The yakitoris weren't as hot as we'd like but it was delicious. We also had the yakiudon along with the eel rice bowl. Added in a sushi roll and takoyaki too

We visited during lunch time, so there weren't many options. However, the food was amazing! We ordered several types of stew and all of them were delicious. I highly recommend the beef tongue, pork belly, skin, and chicken cartilage. We also loved the vibe of the restaurant - it really felt like we were in Japan.

Came here for lunch and Yakitory don is an amazing deal! Good amount of food and everything was delicious. We ordered Yakitory don, some skewers, potato salad, and yakiudon. On top of skewers, I highly recommend yakisoba or yakiudon also.

I absolutely love this place! I’ve visited several times and finally had to leave a review. I brought my daughter and some friends, and everyone was so impressed. The food was amazing, everything we ordered was delicious and melted in your mouth. Especially The Yellowtail Belly Sashimi $19.95 was super fresh and flavorful, and the Japanese Beef $17.85 was incredibly tender. The prices are fair, and the quality is excellent. This time, we ordered a lot for just the three of us. When I got home and looked over the bill, I noticed we were charged for the Bacon Asparagus $10.50 but it was never brought to the table, that was a bit disappointing. I usually take pictures of everything that comes out because I love sharing on Yelp, and it wasn’t there. We sat on chairs without back support not the most comfortable, but it was still a nice experience overall. The service was outstanding, our server was so sweet and attentive, making sure we were well taken care of. Whether you’re coming with family, friends, or on a date, you’ll feel right at home here. Can’t wait to go back but make sure to check your bill before you leave. Be prepared for significant waits, especially on weekends and during peak dining hours and limited parking !

This place wasn't bad. The chowder was pretty good. Lobster roll and surf and turf sandwich was decent as well. The tacos were a little off to me. Not sure but just wasn't feeling them. Other than that, staff was really nice and their sodas were really good too!

Healthy, flavorful and inexpensive. Can you ask for anything else when you are in the mood for seafood? Say “yes” when they ask if you want bacon on your clam chowder. Check out their amazing happy hour deals. 4/30 add on: We have always enjoyed your food and positive service staff. We were very shocked today when the ceviche was delivered with 3 pieces of shrimp. Upon bringing this to the attention of Peyton, she rolled her eyes and said “okay.” Two minutes later she delivered the rest of our food to the table. I said “Thank you” and she did not reply at all, just turned and walked away. My daughter stated “You should learn better customer service.” Peyton started arguing with her that the bad food was not her fault and she should not have to say sorry for it and that my daughter should learn manners. I used to own a restaurant and I would have never tolerated the actions I saw today from your service staff. I guess good help is hard to find. Sadly, we have removed your establishment from our “go to” list.

The Raw Bar serves delicious food. Go with friends, during Happy Hour, and try everything on the menu. Prices per item are $4 @ 4p, $4.50 @ 4:30p, $5 @ 5pm & $5.50 @ 5:30p

Not the biggest menu but really good fresh food. Tons of items made with... you guessed it; FISH 🐟 Outdoor seating during Covid-19. The employees were very friendly and the food came out hot 🔥 #LOCALGUIDES #womenwhoguide #googleguides #slapfish #newlandcenterfood #socalfish

Nice, clean location with outside dining. Great food, great service and OMG the Sushi Bar is tha BEST! Happy hour is the best... but either way you won't be disappointed.

On the plus side, excellent customer service, very personable employees. Clean and bright facility and easy to find. I ordered the fish taco as a 'trial run' and it was very large with plenty of grilled fish (you can also get breaded and fried). There were only two couples in the place at 3:30 pm so I was surprised that I had to wait as long as I did for the one item but then, I was in no particular hurry so not a huge problem. However, if the place was busy, it might be a problem for someone having a short lunch break. I was not very impressed with the taste but then to each his own and I will probably give it another shot with the clam chowder and bacon fries (sounds like the Canadian dish, poutine). I was surprised at the cost of the burger which was $16 but didn't order so won't judge harshly but seems pretty steep for the place which didn't have a lot of ambiance (pretty standard fast food decor). As an interesting side note, they offer a lobster cheese sandwich and list all the ingredients on the menu board except the type of cheese!!!

Yum! I got takeout here and the food was ready in 15 minutes which was incredibly convenient! The lobster roll was warm and the gizzard was nice and cool! The clam chowder was average but the lobster taqueria was super crunchy and tasty! Overall enjoyed the experience and surprisingly good quality for a chain!

I’m not sure what the hype is - maybe it was not a good location or I got a bad batch? But I regret having wasted a meal here when I could have tried so many other things as a visitor from NY. Burgers were cold and putter edges were a little on the hard side. Not very flavorful, fries were stale tasting with no salt at as well. The shake was good… Cheeseburger 6/10 Double double 7/10 Hot cocoa 7/10 too sweet Chocolate and vanilla shake (black n white) 8/10 Fries 5/10

There was plastic in the burger! 🤮 Today I had the most shocking In-N-Out experience I’ve ever had — and it was through the drive-thru. After getting back to work and taking a bite, I discovered a piece of plastic inside my burger. Unfortunately, since it was a drive-thru order, I didn’t get the chance to bring this to the staff’s attention in the moment. But this is a major food safety issue that needs to be addressed. I’ve always trusted In-N-Out for their quality, which makes this even more disappointing. It’s honestly upsetting. Imagine if someone hadn’t noticed and swallowed that—especially a child. Things like this aren’t just “accidents,” they’re signs that something went wrong in food prep or packaging that shouldn’t happen at all. I truly hope In-N-Out takes this seriously and investigates how this could have happened. I’ve been a loyal customer for years, but this really shook my trust.

This was our first time visiting In-N-Out, and it definitely lived up to the hype! The service was top-notch. There were plenty of staff on hand, all working efficiently to ensure everything ran smoothly and that customers were taken care of quickly and kindly. The food was excellent—burgers were fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The fries were crisp and delicious, and everything came out hot and fresh. You can tell they really focus on quality here. The restaurant itself was spotless, which added to the overall great experience. A special shout-out to Christopher, who was working the till during our visit—he was incredibly friendly, helpful, and went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied. His customer service was outstanding and truly memorable. Overall, In-N-Out exceeded our expectations, and we’ll definitely be back!

Do not come here. My mom ordered a cheeseburger with grilled onions and got raw onions. On top of that, she had a long strand of hair ingrained in her top bun. Completely disgusting. Both my doctor pepper and her coke was flat and almost flavorless.

The great thing about In-N-Out is the consistency throughout the stores. As busy as they get they still perform with smiles and seem genuinely interested in their job. Quilty food, quality service, clean restaurant. That is what makes In-N-Out #1.

I’m so mad I went to DisneyLand yesterday and stopped by to eat here with my kids. It was so late we didn’t finish eating I got home put them away. We microwaved one and when we ate them I found a Maggot crawling out of my burger!!!! And there was a dead one too!! I’m 6 months pregnant so when I’m telling you was puking I was puking!! I’m traumatized! This is not okay

I love the flexibility of customizing the order. Extra toasted bun,multiple onion options etc make in and out more than just a hamburger. It is custom to your taste and desires. Always fresh lettuce and tomatoes. Did I Mention the price is incredibly affordable compared to other hamburger places.

The grilled rolls were good, but unfortunately, the rest of the dishes were a letdown. Not only were they overpriced, but the flavors were off—especially the egg noodle and fried egg noodle, which tasted strange. The meat didn’t seem fresh, and the beef in the garlic noodle dish was so tough and chewy, it felt more like chewy rubber than beef. Definitely not a place I’d return to.

Shaken Beef with Garlic Noodle: $26 Great overall dish, beef perfectly cook (soft, med rare), great garlic sauce but the noodle slightly overcook Grill Pork Spring Roll: $11 for 4 Great as usual Beef Stew with Baguette Super tender beef (not fell apart) great sauce and the baguette crispy on the outside and fluffy inside. Great combo, wish they provide more than 2 med size baguette Luna Rice with Shrimp (appetizer) It’s ok, not a fan of the overall texture (mung bean shell).

My favorite quintessential Vietnamese restaurant! It has everything you can want- such a huge variety. My favorites are the clay pot seafood, nem nuong (of course!) and garlic noodle with shrimp. I've also had their hu tieu Kho (dry noodle), porridge, jerky papaya salad, etc. They have desserts, drinks, appetizers, etc. I haven't ever ordered anything I didn't like. Service is always quick and friendly. It's also always crowded- it's a plus that you can put your name down on the waitlist. They're known for their pork rolls. The icing on the cake is the sauce- it's magical. Best sauce ever. You can order to go for a quick fix! I honestly can never get tired of this place. Price is a bit high for some items but overall good value- hearty portions!

We heard all a lot about this place and wanted to try it. It is a very busy place and it is a very large restaurant! The place was clean and full of both Vietnamese and non Vietnamese. They had a large menu with different type of dish. However this is definitely not authentic Vietnamese food but catered more toward fusion food. Two things I didn’t like about this place. They were so busy that the service wasn’t great. It took along time before the waiter took our drink and food orders. The food don’t come out all at once as they bought each dish separately. There not everyone was able to eat at once. They are very expensive with little portions. I would rank them very low in the value department. Overall, I don’t think I would be back as I like authentic Vietnamese food as it is not for me. I categorize them as overpriced Chinese food. However it may be better suited for others.

Food is pretty legit and pretty consistent. They open early so it's great to come and grab some breakfast here before it gets super busy. We pretty much love everything, especially the nem nuong rolls, the Brodard Deluxe Broken Rice with pork chop, lotus stem salad, and more.

If you’re looking for a Vietnamese restaurant, this is the place. I ordered Nem Nướng (grilled pork spring rolls), Bún Bò Huế (noodle dish), and Bánh Khọt (savory crepes). The Nem Nướng is a must, likely the best version around, especially with its signature sweet-savory dipping sauce. All dishes were delicious and stayed true to authentic Vietnamese flavors. The restaurant itself is quite large and spacious but it does get busy. Overall, a solid experience, definitely worth the visit

Food was great! Service was wonderful! Servers came by frequently to refill our waters, take away dirty dishes, and asked if we needed anything else.

The overall experience was a good one. Parking is always tight in that parking lot. The fried chicken on rice was primarily dark meat. It was crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. The beef roll was interesting, a bit salty but good. You need the order price guide to mirror up with menu to see what each item costs. A unique way to fluctuate the prices.

Been going to A& J Restaurant since I was a kid. My favorite is their Cold Peanut Noodles and Beef Rolls. The menus include both photos of the food and a checklist of what to order (mainly in Chinese, but you can match the order number to the checklist). Note: Weekends can get busy, so you will be asked to leave when you are done dining in. Overall, a great place if you are craving Taiwanese food like Beef Noodles Soup, Noodles, Green Onion Pancake, and Beef Rolls.

The front of the plaza is always hard to find parking. The trick is to park at the back, and there is always parking available. I was there on a Sunday, and we waited about 15-20 mins to get a table. After we got seated, we felt they rushed us to place our order. They checked with us once every 30 seconds. I would say it is great customer service and I totally understand because they have a line. The prices are reasonable and not overly expensive. The food tastes authentic. I felt the dining area a bit tight, tables are very close together.

This restaurant is an absolute gem. True to Taiwanese cuisine its beef noodle soup is authentic and delicious. The braised pork belly and cucumber dishes are also amazing. Service is notably friendly too. Just beware that this is a popular spot so there can be a long line during noon and early evening.

The nastiest place I have been to so far. 0 stars. We found hair in our noodles, which the waiter then clarified that it was the beef tendon’s hair. However the way she explained it was not the kindest. She kept saying “is that right?” as if I was supposed to know? If it really was the beef tendon’s hair maybe you guys should have cleaned it properly because this is my first time seeing beef tendon hair. Second of all, this could have been solved by explaining it to us nicely or offering us something or even putting that bowl of noodle on the house. All of the other dishes were below average too in terms of taste AND presentation. Please do not come.

The beef noodle soup (szechuan style) was delicious, where it was nice and warming to the heart! The szechuan style is definitely better and what I really think of when I think if beef noodle soup, but the clear broth was also good, giving a lighter experience!

This is one of our favorite Chinese restaurants in Irvine! Their food is sooo good!! Their waitresses and staff are very friendly and welcoming every time we come here! Xie xie!! 🤤

The Food: We ordered a Cali Burrito, a Chicken Quesadilla, and Carne Asada Fries… and wow. Everything was incredibly fresh, packed with flavor, and served in massive portions. This is the kind of food that covers lunch, dinner, and probably lunch again the next day. Every bite was loaded, cheesy, and perfectly seasoned. The Vibe: Laid-back, busy, and full of energy. The kind of local spot where everyone knows the wait is worth it. You’ll catch the smell of grilled carne asada before you even step inside, and that’s how you know you’re in the right place. The Value: Unmatched. The portion sizes for the price make this a standout. Quality, quantity, and flavor all in one. Final Word: It’s worth the wait, it’s worth the trip, and honestly… if it isn’t Cali Tacos, is it even a taco?! 🌮 #CaliTacos #OrangeEats #CarneAsadaFries #CaliBurrito #SoCalEats #WorthTheWait #LocalFavorite

Tried veggie burritos and fries. Loved their salsa. Burrito was very filling and good. Outside sitting is cool. Would return back to try other items on their menu. Price is economical. Inside seating is also fine.

Had to try their California Burrito since that’s what they’re known for, and let me tell you, it was absolutely fire. The crunch from the fries was spot on, and the salsa and sour cream were perfectly balanced, adding just the right amount of flavor without overpowering everything. The carne asada was packed with flavor, and you could really taste the marinade even through all the other ingredients, which was a huge plus. Ya gotta get it to try it for yourself. The food came out super fast, which I appreciated, but I have to say, the woman at the register wasn’t the friendliest, pretty cold and not very welcoming. It would help if they had someone more customer-focused up front, especially since I wanted to ask about other menu items but didn’t really feel comfortable doing so. That being said, the food delivered- and that’s what matters most! The inside is extremely small and has like 3 tables, but the outside seating has plenty of tables! I was also happy to see they had horchata, not homemade, but still pretty good, and getting three refills was a nice bonus. The little salsa and toppings bar was solid, and I highly recommend the verde salsa. It had the perfect kick and a nice zestiness to it. Despite the service, the food speaks for itself, and I’d come back. If you’re looking for a solid California Burrito, this place is worth a visit!

Delicious and huge tacos! I was initially a little put out by how much the tacos were and then I got them and can say they’re completely worth the price. This place is a great value and the food is also bomb. Would def come back

Guarantee they'll delete this review...Garbage, all hype, that's all this place is.. Got their famous Angel Burrito and its more of a filter than anything, no asada, no shrimp, all rice. They should call it The Angel Rice burrito🤢🤢

Consistently a 5/5 in terms of food quality and flavor, but the insane steady price increases over the past few years bring down to a 4.5/5. Still, I’ll round up to 5/5 in this case to support a local shop. Service tends to be slow and meh (rare to have great service, usually service is just OK) and the one line to order and pick up once ready makes it awkward and take longer than it should. Bathroom is in the courtyard have to ask for the key.

This place has a lot of customers and I can tell you that it gets crowded. It is dirty with that many people being there. The staff was friendly. We got a adobada burrito and my friend got the carnitas burrito. They were tasty and delicious. We did not get any condiments found they did not have a proper barrier to protect the food from people over it. Saw a girl sitting on the table, really! That is not the establishment fault just a girl deep in her own head. Parking is tuff, very small parking for a corner lot. Tried it now tou come and have your own experience. Let us know how it was.

Came here for brunch, no wait. Very nice outdoor patio. We each had a spritz. We got the salmon loco moco and the tropical french toast. Both were great and would happily get it again. Overall a nice place. Good food. Somewhat limited drinks menu (just wine and beer). Service was a little slow but nothing bad. A nice place for brunch while at south coast.

The attendants are making this place truly Great. Welcoming atmosphere and lovely seating, freshly made tasty food, and quick yet reliable service. What else can you desire? Especially appreciate the possibility to get all my food without the dressings.

Okay food. Went for company dinner. Tough to find parking. Service was good. Liked the Pork Cheek Adobo but it was definitely very oily. Duck breast was alright - definitely not great. Glad the company paid for it.

Definitely one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to. My partner and I went for our anniversary last week. The food is somehow simple yeah extremely complex with the amount of flavor and taste each dish has. We got the four course meal with wine pairing, which I highly recommend. we were so fat and happy when we left!

I’ve been here a couple of times now and have enjoyed our meals each time. The menu changes up so you will find something you like with this freshness and great flavors. Most recently I came for their set lunch and it was a nice treat in the middle of the day. Worth a visit!

We were visiting the area for just a few days and ended up eating in this fabulous restaurant twice! During our first visit, for lunch, we were looked after by the lovely Amanda, she was phenomenal and so was the food. My partner had pasta and really enjoyed it. I had the salmon. It was one of the best salmon dishes I've ever had; cooked to perfection and the sauce was insanely good. The accompanying vegetables were also absolutely amazing. It was so delicious, I had this again on the 2nd visit and my partner tried a different pasta and loved this also. This time we were looked after by Xena - again phenomenal service and food was excellent, very consistent. We got to experience the terrace this time during the evening and we also got to meet and chat with one of the chefs. The atmosphere on the terrace is lovely, especially in the evening. Everything was just perfect and would come here again. Thank you to all the team for making our visits so memorable :)

6 of us came here to celebrate birthday on a Friday night. It's located on the 3rd floor just across the bridge from South Coast Plaza. We were seated immediately at the terrace area. We truly enjoyed the pork cheek Adobo, green salad, steamed mussel sinigang, the bone marrow pizza and lumpia. The epi baguette is so good especially to soak up the mussel broth. The pasta bolognese and the Margherita pizza are average good.

The waitress there were so mean and NOT helpful at all. I went there first time today asked what’s their popular dishes, they were cold. Also i ordered Miso soup, they gave me broth has NO ANY SALT in it, when i asked them to please give me some salt, that woman is so mean, didn't even want to give me or help me at all. I asked is their kitchen really doesn’t have any salt, she said no! And said we can give you soy sauce. I don’t like how cold her service is, seems care less about how you think or how you taste the food. If shes my employee, I’ll fire her in a second. Terrible service! Even i liked their Ramen, but i wont be back because of their unprofessional service. Wish they can have some better new waitress.

Salt Ramen 8/10 Miso Ramen combo( white rice / pork)7/10

"Nothing like a bowl of good soup," I always say. I work at a ramen shop (shout out to SLR) so I feel guilty every time I eat here, but their soup is so 🔥 I can't help it. I keep it simple and go with the Shio (salt) Ramen combo with an Ikura Salmon bowl. Comes out perfect every time 👌 Pro Tip #1 Find parking in the BACK of the plaza; there's a rear entrance that gives you direct access Tip #2 Ask for "mustard" to add to your soup. It's a game changer.

Ordered a large bowl of ramen to share with my toddler. Requested the cashier to provide me with another bowl. Very simple request, but was refused flatly by the store manager (Masa). I guess it would be alright if they were apologetic about their “policy”, but they literally were about to punch me in my face when I questioned about their “one ramen one bowl” policy. Went to the udon stall (Misasa) just next to it, and the gentleman gladly handed me one without a question when I shared that the ramen stall refused to provide us with one. Thumbs up for the kindness shown by Misasa. If you’re wondering what to eat when you’re here, visit Misasa for a better experience.

I like the ramen here and it's one of the foods I often come here to eat. However, the ramen I ate here today had cold meat and the broth wasn't very hot. This was my first time eating disappointing food here and I don't think I'll be going again for a while.

Amazing ramen, healthy portion and creamy broth. I got spicy miso broth with pork cheek. On a day when I’m very sick, the restaurant even included a note on the top to say they hope I feel better. And I do. This ramen is made with love and it tastes amazing.

Best ramen I've ever had. The pork in Combo A was so bomb. Great flavor. Even the rice was delicious. The soup is so tasty. Definitely going to become a regular.

I recommend coming here if you are looking for an affordable but delicious pho! My group of five enjoyed our experience from here. Each of us has payed $11-$14 including the food we shared. The pho were tasty and very very reasonable! Im only giving four stars because the utensils seems oily but we asked them to have a new set.

My family love pho and has been visiting this restaurant for years. The restaurant was easy to get there. The restaurant was cleaned and the staff were friendly. Their pho was delicious and the size was adequate. The price was reasonable. We will definitely repeat in the future.

We’ve been to countless Vietnamese restaurants over the years, but Pho101 stands out—and for good reason. We drive 30 minutes from home, passing dozens of other spots, just to eat here. Why? One word: broth. Ok 2 words: Yummy broth. Their pho is rich, deeply flavorful, and clearly crafted with care. We ordered the beef pho with tendon and a side of oxtail—the oxtail is melt-in-your-mouth tender, but be warned: they sometimes run out, so get there early if that’s your favorite. The crispy egg rolls hit the perfect balance of crunchy and moist, while the spring rolls with pork and shrimp had incredible flavor—fresh, savory, and perfectly wrapped. We also tried the broken rice plate combo with pork chops and egg cake, and it was a satisfying, well-rounded meal on its own. Service was fast, though not especially warm—but honestly, the food does all the talking. And it speaks volumes. Pho101 is a sister restaurant to the original Pho79 in Garden Grove, which earned a Michelin star. That level of quality absolutely shows here. If you’re serious about your pho, this place is more than worth the drive.

1. The pho was delicious and comforting! The Thai tea was also crafted well! 2. The spot has fun causal vibes with a large interior! 3. The staff was friendly and timely with our order! Note: You pay at the front! Make sure to tell them your table number! Photo: Thai Iced Tea and Pho

Overall, really good. I ordered the pho, with chicken and shrimp and there was plenty of chicken and 3 shrimp….I expected more shrimp, however, that was most likely the ratio you get. $15, the medium size was plenty. I’d return. To me, not a super flavorful pho, yet, I enjoyed it. Very busy. That’s why I probably didn’t see my waiter until the end.

One of the best spots to eat Pho, Staff are friendly and attentive. Food are delicious. Atmosphere has good decor with good vobes. I highly recommend this place!

This is a top 3 Pho spot. I’m here three times a month. They have the best tasting broth (ask for the fresh noodles.)

Surprisingly good and interesting twists on your usual ramen spot. It was tasty, reasonably priced and had large portions. The chicken karaage had this amazing crispy rice flour type of coating that was really good. I loved the green chili shio ramen as well. I would definitely go back.

This is one of my all-time favorite restaurants in Irvine. The clear broth and chewy noodles are absolutely fantastic. Their summer special, Hiyashi Ramen, is also refreshing and pairs perfectly with all the fresh vegetables. If I ever move back to Korea, I would seriously consider coming back to Irvine just to have this ramen again.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Enjoyed both the started and the main course! The treatment from the waiter was good 👍🏻 and the service once inside was fast. Only issue is that they were full and made us wait for 20 minutes outside under the warm California weather. Also… for that price I would expect more food!

The service is terrible, and you still have the nerve to ask for tips. Fifteen dollars for a bowl of noodles that doesn’t even fill you up! Not even an egg! The service is awful — no greeting when you walk in, just two eyes staring at you. They serve the food without giving chopsticks, and the waiter doesn’t even speak a word. This kind of service is absolute garbage. Japanese service is total trash!

Clean and delicious. Was seated quickly, ordered green chili ramen. Broth and noodles were tasty and will be back to sample other items. I like the open kitchen. Recommended ramen spot.

Some of the best ramen I've had in Irvine. The service was fast and friendly. We sat at the bar to avoid a wait for tables. Come give this place a try.

There has definitely been a change in the flavor of the soup since they opened. Despite that, we still enjoy the texture of their ramen because we love the noodles. The taste of their soup is okay, but I am obsessed with the kids menu that they offer! I was pleased with the portion of the kid's ramen and you get a side of karage (fried chicken), edamame, a side of ramen toppings, and rice with the seaweed as well. I recently went back couple of times to eat here. And the soup flavor got way better!! The soup and noodles are delious!

We had a lovely experience yesterday evening at our omakase! Thank you so much for the DELICIOUS food. This was our first omakase and we loved the experience and all the dishes! The fish was mouthwatering and melted in your mouth!

Quite literally the best meal of my life. One of those incredible experiences that you can’t wait to talk to your friends about. Gino is an incredible host and he is thoughtful in his approach to the meal he puts in front of you.

My friends took me here for my birthday, and overall we had a wonderful time. The chef was personable, knowledgeable, and kind. The dishes were superb honestly a little better than Hana Re and we enjoyed more than ten plates of beautifully prepared food. The reason I can’t give five stars is because as we were leaving, the chef flagged us down to ask if the service had been bad because he felt our tip was too low. I found this extremely rude and ungrateful, especially after spending $250 per person and leaving what we thought was a fair tip. It was embarrassing and uncalled for, and unfortunately it left a negative impression that outweighed an otherwise great dining experience. We will not be returning.

WOW! Best omakase sushi I have ever had! This place did not disappoint! Gino is welcoming and very efficient. He makes his own soy sauce from 6 month aged Spanish mackerel! What?!?! I left full and happy! If you love sushi and are a foodie I would highly recommend this place! Very worth the hype!

What a lovely chef, and an unbelievable meal. This was one of the best restaurant experiences I’ve had in my entire life. The service was attentive, the food thoughtful and inspired, the atmosphere comfortable and clean. On its own, the menu was incredible. Every single plate was well-described and beautifully prepared. I may never recover. And Gino… was LOVELY. I have met many chefs, and dined in fine-dining/Michelin-quality restaurants around the world. This was a superior experience. Gino was knowledgeable, kind, and friendly in a way that is truly rare. We would have come back for the food alone, but Gino made it a memory and an experience. He also personally (and kindly) chased us down to return my purse — the food was so good that I completely forgot it. Thank you — from a couple of new Canadian transplants who felt infinitely welcomed and well-fed.

Had an incredible dinner at Omakase (a Japanese meal consisting of dishes selected by the chef) by Gino. Reservations are a must because they’re usually booked up at least 2 months in advance. Everything was amazing from the appetizers, to the sushi, sashimi, and last but not least the deserts. My pics are out of order and didn’t take a photo of all the dishes but can’t wait to come back for more.

Mark your calendars for the second Sunday of every month at 10am. This is when reservations open up for Omakase by Gino and I highly recommend you try and get in. Every course was beautifully and creatively crafted with the freshest fish and finest ingredients. Everytime I thought I had a favorite, a new dish would come out. If you are celebrating a special occasion or just want to treat yourself, this is the spot.

While staying at Disneyland and near The Pizza Press, I got some food and drinks to take back to our hotel room. The pizza was great! The selection of beer was impressive as well! The cookies were also great! Very nice and personable staff. I would definitely return!

Looking for a quick, customized pizza? This is your place. Located right outside the Disneyland gates, across Harbor drive. The pizza was piping hot but the crust needed a little longer bake. We were able to use forks or fold the pizza to make it work. The staff was helpful and friendly.

Possibly the best Pizza (outside of Italy?!?) I've had so far....hidden gem, close to the Anaheim Convention Center and Disney Anaheim. We had a regular sized "The Times" chicken, Rays sweet bbq drizzled on top, grape tomatoes, smoked Gouda, cilantro. And we ordered a garlic cheese bread. The crust is thin and cooked crisp to perfection, flavors are excellent. Price is reasonable for Anaheim, 17$ for the regular pizza and 11$ for the garlic bread. You can't go wrong with anything you order here. I was sad we had it on our last day in Anaheim, because I wanted to try more flavours. Just try it for yourself, you won't regret!

🍕 The Pizza Press – Anaheim (Near Disneyland) Location: Right on Harbor Blvd & Disney Way, across from the Disneyland drop-off area and main entrance. On the north side, you’ll see Grand Legacy Hotel, and The Pizza Press is right next to The Anaheim Hotel, even connected through a small indoor hallway. Parking: Turn right from Harbor Blvd into the lot — left side is for The Pizza Press, right side leads to The Anaheim Hotel parking. Super convenient! Atmosphere: Spacious interior with around 20–25 tables, and there’s also a nice outdoor patio where you can enjoy your pizza and people-watch. Great for both small and large groups. Ordering Process: Similar to Blaze Pizza or Pieology — you can build your own pizza or choose from their signature pies. One thing to note: they don’t offer a mini/single-size pizza, which might be a downside for solo eaters. Service & Food: When I visited, there were about 3–4 people ahead of me, and my pizza came out in 4–5 minutes — super fast! Staff were friendly and efficient. Pizza quality was decent to above average, and the overall experience was great — quick service, tasty pizza, and clean space. ⭐ Overall: A solid 4.5-star spot for a quick lunch or dinner near Disneyland. Highly recommend if you’re in the area and craving a good, fast-casual pizza! 🍕🙌

OMG!!!! This is the best pizza I’ve ever had!!!! The Chronicle Extra virgin olive oil, mozzarella, imported artichoke hearts, grape tomato, red onion, crimini mushroom, chevre, and roasted red bell peppers, finished with fresh basil and basil pesto. Also added arugula and cilantro. It’s so light, succulent, full of flavor, cheesy, OMG!!!! Love it, a million times love it!!! Delicious 😋❤️ Thank you 🙏

As long as you aren't making weird combos on your pizza it's delicious ;) The place is next to a hotel, but there are designated pizza press parking spots.

Love the food. Its a pizza place where you can order a on the menu or build your own pizza. They have about 4 crust choices, so many toppings, veggies, meat, cheeses and other drizzle toppings to put on your pizza. The only think I dint like was there soda machine wasnt the best, but its clean and a great to get pizza before going to Disney or hanging out with family.

Wendy’s burgers are delicious and juicy and easily competes with In-N-Out. Their salted caramel frosty tastes like butterbeer! This location got all our orders right and their self serve soda machine with so many combinations is awesome. Everything tasted great. Definitely try their triple garlic mushroom bacon cheeseburger, it’s a rich, meaty, cheesy treat with cheese pull!

Trash experience. It was 2 pm on a Saturday. Not busy. I ordered a Chicken Wrap, Frosty, and Soda. I received the Frosty and Soda and was told to go park to the side and they'll bring the rest of the food out, which I've never had to do at any fast food joint before. I sit there for 10 minutes and nothing happens. I didn't want to get out of my car to see what's going on so I go to the drive thru again, which they then gave me my order. Why was I told to park outside?? They clearly just want to have people pass through to lower their wait times to look good for management. When I got the wrap and opened it, it was a total mess. Never again.

I’ve been coming here for a little while when I’m in the area. I only eat the chili and the baked potatoes, which are OK not too bad but the place is pretty dirty and the service is pretty poor.

We were treated super rude by the drive thru attendant when we asked for a few more straws because he hadn't given us enough. He shook his head like i had done something wrong and rudely handed us a handful after telling me he put them in the bag, and I told him that I knew because I had counted them and we were 3 short. Then after all that they missed a fry and gave us the wrong sauce. Didn't notice that till we were all the way back to our hotel. I would never come to this establishment again after how rude they were and they can't even get a simple order right!

I had a very disappointing experience at this Wendy’s. The employee working the drive-thru was extremely unprofessional and refused to give me her name when I asked. On top of that, as soon as the window opened, there was a very strong odor of alcohol coming from inside the restaurant — definitely not what you want to smell when you’re picking up food. I don’t usually leave reviews, but this was concerning enough that it felt worth mentioning. Management really needs to step in, because the service and environment here were completely unacceptable.

Used the app to order a chicken sandwich for ASAP pickup—food was ready in under 5 minutes, and the order was accurate with the added onions and pickles. Only one party was dining in, and a few people came in to order. The staff was friendly, and the restaurant was clean. I was pleasantly surprised to see that just ordering one chicken sandwich earned me 200 rewards points, which showed up almost instantly. That’s enough to redeem for chicken nuggets, breakfast potatoes, or a Frosty right away. Fast crediting and solid perks make the app worth using.

I try not to rag on places, but we placed a mobile order for drive-thru pickup. It said it was ready, but when we arrived, it wasn’t. We were told it would be a few minutes and asked to pull around and park. After sitting for over 15 minutes, I went inside for an update and was told it would be another 4 minutes. It wasn’t even that busy—and the staff inside made a sloth look fast. I’m not asking them to rush and sacrifice quality, but this was straight-up laziness. I’ve worked at In-N-Out during rushes, and we always kept things moving. Sure, there were waits, but not because the staff moved at a snail’s pace. Need better leadership at this location, plain and simple. If you are in a hurry ever, don’t come to this location.

The customer service and quality of food are great! We rarely have to wait to be seated and they offer generous portions. The milkshakes are also tasty and satisfying. This is are go to place whenever we visit the Block.

Visited here after watching a movie at AMC Orange on a weekday evening. It was not crowded at all and we got a table right away. The staff is very friendly and the service is quick. They do have a couple of vegetarian burger options. We took the boca pattie on a spicy Houston burger and it was really good. Their jalapeno cheese poppers are also good. Will surely visit again.

The milk shake was pretty good. I am a chocolate lover so had a medium Hershey’s chocolate. Patties were tender and juicy. The price was only drag for me. 16bucks for a burger and a shake. Up to ya. ^^

Such an adorable vintage restaurant at The City in Orange just across from the Guitar store! The perfect place to run in our of the rain on a date with my grandson!😁. Christian and I sat at the counter and the sweet waitress helped me in my ambivalence work out how I can get a chocolate malt at half the calories to go with my chili bowl topped with onions. SOOOO good! Christian had the burger with fries with their "secret sauce" and a strawberry with vanilla malt! We were both on cloud 9!!! The decor is so cute with inspirational slogans. Can't say enough for a fun place to munch after shopping!

The bun is felt like it was refrigerated. The burger presented was messy. The cherry coke was a mix of coke and cherry syrup, because we can see and taste the syrup at bottom, not like regular premixed cherry coke. There will be extra charge if you asked for jalapeno or chili, 4 pieces for $1.19. Also the price on the menu wasn't match with the charge, 20 cents more. The server never asked for refill, just come and give the bill. I prefer Habit or Five guys burger is much more taste and juicy. Wife hated it

Got a burger to go to eat at home. Wait was minimal, and the interior of the restaurant was a really nice and old-fashioned style like an America Diner. Unfortunately, I did find a hair in my burger, which was not a good thing. Fries and burgers taste decent, but the shakes there are really good.

Awesome! Our server was great, asked us if we needed drink & endless french fry refills, had a great attitude. The place was packed & all the employees had their heads on & helpful. Very well ran establishment, also very nice patio dining. Go check it out if ya like burgers.

1. The donut tasted simple and good! 2. The spot has fast casual vibes with a spacious interior! 3. The staff was friendly and timely with my order! Note: There is a drive-thru option at this location! There is also restroom available for customers! Photo: Powdered Strawberry

Whoever is the manager needs to teach this worker some manners. My family was in line waiting for donuts but he wanted to ignore us. We made sure to talk to him directly and loud enough to hear us. Also, no need to swear under your breath, just say it to our face. Donuts good. All the other workers were AMAZING with smiles on their face and greeting everyone. This guy needs to go through a diversity inclusion course.

Doughnuts glazed Served hot between 7:00am to 10:00am So sure it is really good when served hot And they offered free doughnuts when waiting for our order, Generous of them

Delicious!! We got a hot glazed donut offered to my husband and I as soon as we walked through the doors, they know what they are doing. I immediately had to get a dozen donuts to go 🍩.

I stopped by this Krispy Kreme yesterday morning because I wanted something to eat. My wife was shopping at the Outlet nearby so I figured she can shop and I can go get a donut. I parked at the Outlet parking lot and just walked to this Krispy Kreme. They have a drive thru here so if you don't want to go inside then just go to the drive thru. When I walked inside, they were not busy at all. I was the only one inside and was going to redeem my points for the Glazed donut. When I told the worker I just wanted the glazed donut, he said it's a free sample. So I didn't even have to use my points which I highly appreciate. The donut was good and fresh.

I had a truly wonderful experience today. In the past, I had avoided this location due to the rude behavior of some staff members. I even chose to drive farther or skip donuts altogether because I didn’t want to return here. However, today I urgently needed to purchase 10 boxes of donuts, so I had no choice but to stop by. To my surprise, I had a grateful and heartwarming experience. When I asked about pricing, a staff member named Olive at the counter kindly explained everything to me. She went out of her way to help with things that others might have found bothersome, all with a smile and from the perspective of the customer. If more people had her mindset, customers would feel drawn to return—not just for the product, but for the experience. Her thoughtful and friendly attitude truly made my day. No matter how delicious the donuts are, a place can easily be avoided because of unfriendly service. But thanks to her kindness today, this store became a place that left me feeling happy and uplifted all day long.

"Krispy Kreme, you've done it again! Those glazed donuts are straight fire (literally, they're hot, folks!) - unbeatable, irresistible, and downright addictive. But, l've got a spooky story to share. I ordered the limited-edition Halloween donuts, but they conjured up the wrong kind instead! However, the Krispy Kreme wizards quickly cast a correction spell and hooked me up with not only the right donuts but EXTRA ones too! Moral of the story: even when Krispy Kreme makes a boo-boo, they still manage to sugarcoat it with awesome.

Blaze 🔥 Pizza 🍕 Old Towne Orange 🍊 Circle 🟠 is extra special because of the Service, People Watching, & location is Stellar. Ingredients are fresh and the Service is friendly and very accommodating... especially if disabled. Always very clean. Large spot w/ seats usually available..Staff aims 2 please when it comes to dietary issues. Have many of the latest nutritional ingredients as well. But have also seen lines going around the Circle Plaza ⏺️ for certain Blaze 🍕 Pizza events or promotions. This location really does a fantastic job.👍 Enjoy... bSafebHappybWell 🤙

Sadly the service hasn't improved. Staff are unfriendly and uncaring of how they make the pizza - toppings were very sparse. Not worth the $14 for a build-your-own pizza! When asked to add missing toppings we were ignored. Sad, It used to be a great place to enjoy. My family and friends will not return! Will happily take my business where it's appreciated.

Honestly was a regular customer here but I had a bathroom emergency this morning and walked in an asked for the code. This is something I do regularly here because it’s the only consistent bathroom in the circle. Some young guy denied me the code and started giving me the whole spiel about how they don’t do public restrooms, only for paying customers. Told him it’s an emergency and he would just keep repeating himself. Super lame, and even though I have spent money here over the years, because of this one guy I’m mad enough to never go there again.

I’m disappointed that I signed up for the Blaze app & Blaze club. My percentage coupon wasn’t applied neither was the $5. Coupon. The large pepperoni pizza was ok but not enough red sauce. Pepperoni, red sauce & cheese is a basic pizza & should be good. The herbavore cauliflower crust pizza was a bit better. I paid &40. for so-so pizzas🍕🍕🍕😬🫤🤓🤨🥺😜

The pizza here is so good and fresh. Fast service, froendly staff. The thin crust is perfect on this pizza.

My husband and I order take out here often. But no more. At times the staff display a VERY poor attitude. There was a 50/50 chance of getting someone who will either refuse a request or act like you just asked them to sell their first born. Occasionally we got a super friendly staffer. Smiling and pleasant...but now - every time we go it's attitude, attitude, attitude. So we've decided we won't be going to this location anymore.

I don’t understand what’s wrong with this location employing the rudest employees. Tonight my husband and I were planning on getting pizza here tonight but I had to use the restroom really quickly before we ordered. An employee came around the corner and asked if we were buying anything because there’s no public restroom. He persisted and I walked away to the restroom and then had a few choice words with my husband as we decided we were no longer going to dine there. We chose pizza press instead. I wish I had the employees name but I don’t. Who harasses a guest about a bathroom trip? I understand there’s a lot of homeless in the area and stating no public restroom detours them, but I was about to be a paying customer and I now never will come back.

Classic Diner Vibes with Friendly Service. I’ve been to several Norms locations, and this was my first time at this one. The restaurant itself feels a bit outdated, but it works with the old-school diner vibe they seem to be going for. Service was a bit slow, even though the restaurant wasn’t very busy. That said, the staff was extremely friendly, and it didn’t feel like the delay was due to them personally — just unclear what the holdup was. I tried the meatloaf for the first time. It was thinner than expected and a bit too salty for my taste, but the mashed potatoes and vegetables were fresh and flavorful and really helped round out the meal. My older kids stuck with their usual breakfast orders and enjoyed them as always, and my wife loved her burger. Despite the slow start, the quality of the food and the friendly atmosphere made up for it. We’d definitely return if we’re in the area.

Food The quality was great for the price. $9.99 for trout, veggies, and baked potato. Service Very fast service. Yamilet is the multi-tool that every company needs. I could see her working at a high end restaurant. Atmosphere Love the 50s style vibe. Reminds me of good times. Keep doing a great job Yamilet. Take a moment to breathe, you're going to do great!!!

Amazing experience, no waiting time. Our came out fast, the employees are so friendly and welcoming; they make sure you are taken care of.

Best breakfast. The pancakes are the best that I have had. Sausage is perfect with a great taste, Ice coffee avaliable and it is delicious. Highly recommend this place e. It's our new place for breakfast

Right after coming in, we got seated immediately. The server Marco immediately took our drink orders as well as our breakfast choice. Food was good and overall caring service. 10/10 would come here again!

Marco was wonderful. We came in and he took care of everything in a perfect timely manner. I appreciate your service! Happy Easter to the staff!

My wife and I are regulars at Norm’ s restaurant. The food is always good and the prices are very reasonable. More importantly, the employees (servers, hosts, chefs,etc are exceptional. We are always greeted with a happy smile and courtesy. For example, today our server was Marco, he was friendly, happy and very professional.He made us feel very welcome

I expected much better from a place I have eaten at many times. The food was mediocre at best. The grilled fish taco was bone dry and cold. The fried fish tasted like a cold chicken tender and the shrimp taco was also subpar but vastly better than the other 2 tacos. I do not recommend this place even for nostalgia. Nothing tasted fresh it was all old and under temp even off a hot table.

Wahoo's Fish Tacos in Old Towne Orange, California, is a healthy haven that hits the spot! Their menu is packed with good-for-you options that don't skimp on flavor. We love daily and weekly specials. Especially in summer 🌞 time. 2025 has been a tasty year so far:)) Such a wonderful location.... peaceful and delicious. Fish tacos and black beans original dish. But the Banzai Bowl - it's a mountain of fresh veggies and brown rice topped with grilled fish or tofu is super popular for those with any dietary issues. Their fish tacos are legendary, and the Classic is my go-to. The fish is always perfectly grilled, and the cabbage mix adds a nice crunch. Sigg the pico de Gallo & salsa station near soda fountain machine. Their drinks are top-notch too! They have a very unique ice packed chest into counter next to cash register with Mexican beers and sodas...has water, teas And other options. But the real star is the patio. It's huge, open, and surrounded by trees, like a cathedral of sunshine. There's always a nice breeze, and it's the perfect place to chill after a meal. The staff are always super friendly and helpful. They go out of their way to make sure everyone feels welcome, especially people with disabilities. I've seen them help people with wheelchairs and walkers, and they always do it with a smile. I'm 1 of them:)) And the location is right in the heart of Old Towne Orange, in a beautiful plaza that's a National Landmark. You can see all kinds of historic buildings & Landmarks from the patio including Plaza ⛲ Park 🏞️ & Orange 🍊 Square ⏺️ . Chill place to be. So if you're looking for healthy, delicious food in a beautiful setting, Wahoo's Old Towne Orange 🍊 is the place to go!

First time. Crispy fish tacos have a bomb zesty slaw. Sick atmosphere. Feels like the cool place on the block.

Reasonably priced food. Very nice customer service and good indoor and outdoor seating. The food here was also good. Chips needed more salt, but the salsa tasted good. The Outer Reef burrito with spicy chicken was good and with Wild Fish was also good. My only complaint was that the fish was a little over cooked. Besides that, this is a good lunch/dinner restaurant with great outdoor seating!

It great. Its right in the circle so parking can be tricky. We'll worth it though. Service was great, food was great and it was clean.

I'd say this place is okay. I wasn't disappointed nor was I impressed with the chicken tortilla soup and fish taco. However, I know some people that would like the food here so I'll describe what I got. The chicken tortilla soup was tomato based and it was refreshing, couldn'treally taste the chicken. When I think chicken tortilla soup, I think if something more hearty which is what I would have liked to have during the cold weather. Now for the fish taco, it may have been overly breaded/fried. Or maybe it was lacking in fish. Either way, their green sauce was actually REALLY good so when I bathed my taco in it, it tasted better. Things to note: Parking is a tad bit difficult to find as you have to find one on the street. Atmosphere is good. Plenty of outdoor seating, and the servers are very nice.

Wahoos is a great place that’s is like an alternative to Rubio’s. Really good fish tacos or bowls. They have it all, and the ambiance is chill. I really like how they add like a million stickers everywhere at all their locations, it really makes them a unique place to eat and great spot to eat with friends.

My friend and I stopped by this place for a quick bite before our late evening movie at the outlets. It’s got a typical chain restaurant vibe, but the staff were friendly and accommodating, even though we were close to closing time. We ordered the cilantro lime quinoa bowl with blackened salmon and the grilled veggie California bowl. The salmon was perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. The hot sauce added a nice kick to both dishes. Overall, it’s a convenient option for a healthy, flavorful meal if you’re in the area! Would definitely stop by again.

It’s at the heart of the Plaza, at orange outlets. Nice place, although somehow crowded. The taste was fine.

Shrimp bowl was amazing. I like the quantity, the variety of veggie and sauces comes with it. It was simply nice. Quesadillas felt little cheesy but overall loved it. Also lemonade and the hibiscus drink was kind off cool. They well pretty with the food.

I’m not one to leave negative reviews but this one definitely deserves it. After waiting over 30 minutes for our food and everyone that order after us getting their food before. Mind you the manager and another server passing by our table numerous times and just looked at us and our number but never thought about our missing food. I decided to go ask for the status on our food and the manager Adriana literally said they “FORGOT” our ticket but would get it to us immediately. I strictly told her do not bring us cold food. And what do they do? Our food wasn’t even warm to say the least. Took our food back and asked for my money back Adriana said she could not refund my tip. And sure enough she didn’t. Terrible service at this place not sure how they stay in business. I definitely do NOT recommend this place.

The reason I’m giving them a star and that shouldn’t even give them one star because it was 10:15 when I arrive to have something to eat with my son, we walked in my son sit down and I don’t know if it was the manager. The lady said we are closed, but the doors were wide open and I was already after 10. I asked why we needed to leave she said we’re not ready. We just started cooking. I said your your hours are from 10 AM and it’s a little after 10 she said no we’re not ready. I said what time would you be ready? She said it’s gonna take us 35 to 45 minutes so I walked out with my son.

This Rubio’s is in the Block which makes it a convenient place to grab a bite after going to the movies or shopping around. Their specialty is sea food and honestly I think you get more fish and shrimp for your buck by getting the Cabo Plate: Shrimp burrito and a fish taco. Their new chipotle chicken burrito though is pretty good.

Nice place. Decent tacos. Fish tacos are a bit bland. The tortillas and veggies are fresh. The lobster tacos are much better but they don't give you very much lobster meat. The flavors are great tho. Refried beans are delicious with the chips. Service is fast and friendly. Thanks for a great experience!

Small chicken tenders for price. This is not ok, size of my index finger. Missing slaw. 12 dollars??? Girl had a attitude.

My kids love, raising Cane’s and frequent the restaurant a few times a week, unfortunately. As much as I don’t like them eating fried foods, we are very fortunate that they are very active kids and they love it especially the tenders and the Texas toast.

Had the Chicken Finger meal. The chicken was tender and juicy. The Texas toast was delicious! Slaw was just ok. The chicken and fries with the sauce is darn good. Customer service was good, place was clean. This is based on the Tustin location. I would gladly try the same meal at other locations.

The rudest employees ever. Food is good, but the customer service is terrible. The women there are snobby and do not have any customer service skills. I had to tell the girl twice that my cane sauce was missing and she rolled her eyes and slammed the window and gave me the sauce. I will never return here again and do not recommend this location.

The worst tasteless chicken ever, horrible sauce and the Cole slaw was very bland. I went there because my son's friend recommended it and since I was hungry, I had to eat it. But will never go back. I like flavor in my food.

If you're looking for a quick bite to eat and you love Chicken Fingers, this here, is your place! Just down home goodness. The chicken fingers are cooked to perfection. Hot, fresh and juicy. No dry, overcooked, old grease tasting chicken fingers here! You got nothing but goodness. That's all they sling - Chicken Fingers. If you want a chicken sandwich, they place chicken fingers on a bun. The coleslaw and garlic Texas toast is delicious, too! The fries are always cooked to a golden brown! They always use fresh fryer oil! You won't regret it! They have a little bit of both world's when it comes to their iced tea - they have sweetened and unsweetened. Both are so good! The sweetened iced tea isn't too sweet either - just like back home! Don't forget to try the Cane's dipping sauce, get several more for the road! #raisingcanes #chickenfingers

Outstanding service. Placed the order by phone, and they had it ready early. We placed an extra large order and the manager even came over and greeted us. Can’t say enough nice things about the customer service here. The place is super busy but you still get great customer service. The restaurant looks super clean. Great options are on the menu. The prices are very affordable. The food is delicious.

Animal Style double double burger is still decent but the quality of the fries here went downhill from what I remember back when I used to eat here everytime I visited California from Canada. The fries were like cardboard texture, very hollow and bland with no crisp whatsoever. I recommend skipping the fries if you plan on eating here.

This is the first In-N-Out I’ve been to that had someone actively wiping down tables and when we sat down he asked what our number was (as well as tables around us) and brought us our food! Thanks Ethan! I don’t mind standing there and getting my food, but it was super unexpected and nice of him to bring everyone’s food to them. He also memorized everyone’s number after hearing it once. When ordering the machine didn’t work and the girl had to put my order in again on the computer terminal next to hers which was a little annoying, but oh well. It wasn’t super busy so it was okay. Our food came pretty quickly and it was fresh and hot like In-N-Out is known for. The kids loved their grilled cheeses, fries and the Neapolitan shake we shared.

I was going to get takeout, but since there weren’t many people inside that day, I decided to eat there. It was a quiet In-N-Out, which was my first time visiting that location, so maybe that’s why it felt different. The one in my neighborhood is never quiet.

I've had many in n out meals, but today's takes the cake. Received my food in an almost advertisement-worthy fashion. Fries are not in n out's strong point, but these fries were consistent throughout. Onions were caramelized well. Soda machines' carbonation was strong. Burgers were good as always just presented in a nicer manner than usual.

First time visiting In-N-Out all the way from Ohio! The food was incredible and I'm glad I made sure to get it Animal Style. I'll dream about coming back here!

This is the worst In-N-Out location I’ve experienced. I’ve visited twice in the last two months, and both times they got my order wrong. It seems like the staff is more focused on which friends are in the drive thru than providing good service. This level of quality is uncharacteristic for In-N-Out.

We've eaten here several times Hamburgers are good, I always ask for grilled onions, you can get the fries double dipped if you want them crispy. Prices are affordable for fast food.

If you are in a rush, do drive thru even if the line looks crazy long. They move through quickly. We made the mistake of going inside, and they go through those orders much slower. Not sure how they designate crew to which line. They have a lot of staff working the expo line, and the food is always solid. Staff is courteous and care about how their dining room is clean. I stood there for maybe 20 mins for my order and saw manager in expo that was working register to go clean the room and ask each dine-in customer how their food was. You would not see that at other fast food joints ever.

Is this the first In-N-Out i’ve reviewed? No. First on this trip? Also no. Did the double double protein style, buddy got the reg double double and fries. HUGE line, but we went inside and were served fairly quick. Across the street was an empty Carl’s Jr. The workers were looking across the street wishing they made better life choices.

I’ve always enjoyed In-N-Out in the past, but unfortunately this visit left me very disappointed. The issue wasn’t just that my order came out wrong — mistakes can happen anywhere — but how the situation was handled afterward. When I pointed out the mistake, I expected a quick resolution. Instead, I ended up standing and waiting for more than 20 minutes, feeling ignored the entire time. It wasn’t until I became visibly upset that the staff even addressed it. At that point, the line cook hurriedly made the replacement, but in doing so pressed down on both the patty and the bun. The result was a dry piece of meat paired with a bun that had been squashed, over-toasted, and burnt. By the time I finally received the corrected burger, the rest of my food had gone cold. To make matters worse, the replacement burger not only looked unappetizing but tasted like cardboard. This particular meal was meant for my son, and while he tried to eat it, he only managed half before giving up and tossing the rest — which says a lot, since he usually enjoys his meals here. I understand mistakes happen, but what makes the difference is how quickly and properly they’re fixed. Unfortunately, this experience showed a lack of urgency, care, and attention to detail. In-N-Out usually sets the standard for quality and service, but this visit fell far short of what I’ve come to expect.

Good service, friendly staff, clean environment. Also not as crowded as many other locations. Definitely not like the locations in my area which has 3X's as much traffic!

Long wait... Longer then the normal wait, wasn't even that busy for that long wait time. Have them remake the hamburgers which took an additional 20 minutes

People working at 12 AM to 1 AM September 1st don’t know how to work. For an entire hour I waited for a burger because they coned off any possible exit in the drive through. None of them decided to leave their little cozy store to take care of the smallest line dreadful customer service. Then I got my food, the fries are actually dreadful. I’ve never seen fries attach to each other before. You have one job. I’ve lived in this area for 15 years but I will be to telling all my friends and family to AVOID the in and out at Chapman.

Ate at this location for the first time. Food & service were great as always. Did not see any employee cleaning/ disinfecting tables like in the past.

I recently visited this place to celebrate a friend's birthday, and we had a great time! We ordered two pizzas, which were delicious—perfectly cooked with fresh toppings and great flavor. We also tried their Diamond Knots, which were a hit with everyone at the table. As a special surprise, the staff brought out some warm cinnamon knots for the birthday celebration, which was a really nice touch and added to the festive vibe. The atmosphere was laid-back and welcoming, making it a great spot to hang out with friends. They also had a few games available, which kept us entertained while we waited for the food and added a fun, casual element to the evening. It’s always nice to find a place that combines good food with a relaxed, friendly environment. The staff were attentive and friendly throughout our visit, and the service was solid. Overall, it was a really enjoyable experience. Whether you're going out for a casual bite or celebrating something special, this is a spot worth checking out.

I will never be back to this location. 3rd time this has happened. I order a meatball sub and garlic knots for pick up. I showed up 35 minutes later, 5 min after it was supposed to be ready, "We're still working on the sandwich, give us 10 or 15 minutes." 20 minutes later, 55 minutes total, I finally get my food. I live right down the street, and my garlic knots are barely lukewarm and my sandwich is barely warm. It does not take 55 minutes to make a meatball sub and garlic knots. And frankly, for $16 with no side the sub should be bigger.

First time there. Had the hot wings. Very good hot sauce. Not the normal Franks Redhot that I like also, but very good. Nice size wings, and it was about a 1lb for $16. Large beer in a chilled mug.

Big spacious area. Pizza is good. Ordered the meat lovers and it was loaded. Love it!

Usually very happy with Zito's as I do enjoy their pizza. Last night, after trying multiple times to place an order on the website which would not go through for some stupid reason, I phoned in an order to my local Zito's. I asked for a 'half and half' large pizza and come to find out upon delivery that they left off the topping I wanted on one half. Figured it wasn't worth pursuing at that point but the person that requested the pepperoni half was VERY disappointed. Also, the price quote that they give you online was different than what they charged when I called in the order. What's up with that?

Yum. Yum. Garlic knots yum. Wine, yes. So good.

I had Zito's cater my daughter's wedding reception recently and they did an amazing job. The food and the service were excellent.

Great hot dog stand across from In n Out burger. What an amazing treat. I loved their Chicago Dog, with hot peppers, pickle slice, and tomato. French Fries were tasty and lightly salted. Thin fries, but a nice order size. I'll definitely go back and try the chili dog next

First time at pacific coast hot dogs 🌭 and most likely my last. Ordered 2 chili cheese dogs and a chili cheese fries Waited about 10 minutes or so. Got my food and the chili was cold ( not cold but warm ) expected them to be hot, especially after I had to wait 10 minutes to get them anyway the chili was cold and not a good tasting chili ( kinda taste like a water down Hormel chili ) the hot dog also was not that good cheap quality and Tasted like they just boiled it in water. the chili fries same problem it had their chili on them. I did like that. The fries were skinny and they were hot because he did just make them. But the cheap chili and cheap cheese ruin the chili fries. I did like the outdoor seating area and the way the building looked. Just wish the food would’ve been better.

This hot dog stand is one of those spots where you always pass by when you are in the area and if you are not a local like me, just always curious and never visit! Well it’s been at least 2-3 years and on Wednesday was the day! I had a meeting in the area and needed to grab a bite to eat before my meeting. Should I go to Carls or Pacific Coast? PCHot Dogs definitely brings you back the 90s and simply love the nostalgia feeling. This spot has 8 different hot dog styles, classic fries with chili or cheese or both. So many different milk shakes and honestly felt guilty not taking my kids to enjoy a Thrifty Ice Cream. I am that type that orders a bunch of stuff and takes it home for the kids and hubby to enjoy. I got their chili cheese dog, bbq bacon dog and Tijuana dog. To me, bbq bacon dog was the ugliest looking hot dog but omg, it tasted sooooo good. Topped with a pickle spear was perfection. Instantly fell in love. The other dogs were delicious but that bbq bacon dog simply put me under a spell. Love how their hot dogs have a snap. The owner gave me a crispy taco to try and honestly that took me by surprise. It was a crunchy simple taco that hit the spot! Keep this hot dog stand alive everyone. It needs to stay here forever or least until I die. So 40 more years!

IG/TT @waitfoodfirst Pch hot dogs in orange is the spot to go if you’re looking for a glizzy that’s simple, delicious, and affordable. My favorite is the Tijuana dog. It’s a bacon wrapped hot dog topped with grilled onions, jalepenos, fresh tomato and only costs $6.50. They’ve also got insane chili cheese fries. They’re thin cut, crispy, and perfect for $5.75.

I’d say this place is pretty iconic. It’s been around for a long time and my “go to” when i want a chili cheese dog or chili cheese fries!! They have a small but mighty menu. I eventually would like to order other hotdogs (like the Tijuana) but I’m a creature of habit. Portions are big. Price is decent. Service is always friendly!

Hot dogs anyone?? Highlights of the menu: 1. Chicago dog 2. Chili cheese dog 3. New York dog 4. Oreo milkshake Nothing can beat a good hot dog after a long day at work. Just want to have a quick yet yummy dinner and this is the best choice for today. Their hot dogs are just out of the oven with some crunchy pickles (I don’t love all kinds of pickles but they have the type I like) and the sauces! So good!! Also, this is a small store with outdoor seatings. With the sun still up, I feel so fun to eat differently today.

They brought back the ice cream. I like that! And, now they have tacos too. Just one kind. Ground beef. It was good. Fresh made to order French fries. Get chilie cheese on it! Its an outdoor hotdog stand on the street. with some limited shaded seating. Pretty Iconic, I guess.

Tried the 6” meatball sub, and it did not disappoint. The baguette was perfectly crisp outside, soft inside, holding up well to the rich marinara and melted mozzarella. The meatballs were tender, flavorful, and packed with classic Italian seasoning. Paired with a bag of Maui onion chips, it was a simple yet satisfying meal. Cortina’s nails quality, from the food to the efficient service. Whether grabbing a quick bite or stocking up at the Italian market, it’s a go-to spot.

Always a great experience at Cortinas! Their app and their website are really easy to use and make ordering for pick up very easy and streamlined. Highly recommend this place. Personal favorite is the meatball sandwich!

sadly they close early but whenever I do get the chance to stop by, I always enjoy it. the cross fit is perfect, one of the best sandwiches I’ve had. they have indoor and outdoor seating, which I can guarantee that you will be comfortable with either or!

Absolutely delicious sandwiches, I have tried a couple of different ones and each has been great. Can get very busy around noon but it is well worth the wait. Service is fast and friendly.

My spouse Sicilian and said the Italian sub from the connected pizza and sandwich light lunches was the best she has tasted in OC since moving here 2 years ago. The Deli had a nice supply of deli meats and pasta. It was busy and vibe was friendly and seemed like a local hang out too. Good sign. We live in SOC but worth the drive

Unfortunate experience at Cortina’s: I was excited to try this place because it was well reviewed but after waiting 30 minutes for a 6” sandwich, I had to cancel my order to get back to the office for a meeting. When I went to the counter to cancel they said “oh, here is your order” which I could immediately tell was prepared wrong. I got my refund and left without having lunch today :( Wouldn’t recommend coming here unless you’ve set aside over an hour for lunch.

Cortina's is consistently excellent, no matter what you order. We had a large group at work today and every single entree was top notch. Well done!!

The service needs to be improved as I've been calling the restaurant for over 40 minutes and no was answering and when I went over to see why, I found the workers just fooling around. When I asked why no one answered, they told me the kitchen was closed and they could take any orders even though I called way before they closed, and they refused to take my order. They should have the decency to answer the phone and say they are not taking orders instead of just letting the phone ring and fooling around. I hope management can see this as this is not right. I went on the 22 of May 2025 in the afternoon for management can know who was working at the time.

The food is great, but the customer service really needs improvement. Every time I order over the phone or visit in person, the staff seems upset and annoyed—especially when I ask questions. It makes the experience uncomfortable. Please work on providing better service to match the quality of the food.

I hope the owner is reading this. I really hope the man that took my order was not the owner either ☹️ First off, whoever answered the phone to take my order, kept saying “anything else” like a broken record as if he was annoyed I even called to order. I ordered wings and he didn’t ask what flavor. I know I should’ve asked myself but he took it upon himself to make me what ever he felt like making. He blamed his behavior on him being tired, yea me too. I worked all morning, just like you did and rushed across town to watch my kid play from 3-9pm and hear me out, I know you probably don’t care Mr. Valentino, but you should. Why? because I care about supporting our local mom and pops businesses like yours. We even recommended you to my neighbor last night. So I say this to the old guy that helped me tonight, I hope you get some sleep and I hope you don’t lose another local family trying to support. I didn’t mind paying $40 for a large pizza and wings until tonight. Sincerely, Not a fan anymore

We've been patronizing Valentino's for years. (at least $3,000 a year) One bad experience last week and we're never going back. Our spaghetti with meat sauce order had 2 tablespoons of sauce. I asked for more sauce and was told they would have to charge me... I asked why they were willing to lose a customer over a few tablespoons of sauce and one of the employees (Edgar?) told me as I was leaving it was because they would have to heat some up... I guess their customer service has changed... I paid $66.00 for the order and even gave them a tip on a pick-up order. silly

The hours say they’re open till 11 today. I called around 9:30 for a pick up order and they said that the kitchen is closed for the night. I guess they close when they feel like it.

REALLY YUMMY PIZZA! LOVE THEIR SAUCE! GREAT SERVICE. The price for an XL is reasonable. We got 2 toppings and it was like 24 bucks. Other places are more expensive for just a L.

I like the Buffalo wings. Large healthy meaty Spicy, just the way they should be. It's done right... Thanks again to the cooks. : )

I’m a big fan of breakfast restaurants and this is a favorite. It’s located just off of the Orange Circle in Old Town Orange. There are plenty of fun shops to browse through in the area. This is a very popular restaurant, I suggest arriving early so you won’t have a wait. The food is excellent, my favorite is the pancake trio, for people like me that want to try them all! They have seasonal pancake flavors so you will need to visit seasonally to try them all. The coffee is good, the sweet potato hash is a favorite and the Eggs Benedict is an excellent option is you want savory. I have never had a bad experience. Staff is constantly good as well as the food. I prefer to park in the structure on Lemon St. (3 hours free parking).

This was a great breakfast place. I ordered regular breakfast. The hash browns were amazing. I definitely preferred the sausage over the bacon but the bacon was still good. Coffee was also good. My husband got the shrimp and grits and really liked it. Menu had a lot of other good stuff we will be back to try.

I drive for a fleet service company. My experience this weekend was unpleasant. As I picked up an order including drinks I noticed the cup holder was cut in half. We informed the person handing out the orders tray was not strong enough and drinks will eventually spill. He kept cleaning his work area and just said, ok. As I grabbed the tray one of the drinks fell and spilled then I asked if the tray could be replaced and I was given another half tray where I ended up putting the drinks myself. The person at the pick up area walked away and kept cleaning his area. We reported this incident to our fleet service provider. Drivers are also your customers serving your outside customers. We expect to be treated with respect and follow our fleet service guidelines. I ended up blocking this location while our fleet service conducts an investigation and reach out to Snooze management to discuss this unprofessional behavior.

The scrambled eggs were super under cooked. The bacon was candied to the point I couldn't taste the bacon anymore. The pancake was good, and the hash browns were cooked perfectly. I wanted a pancake meal, but they didn't have that, the waitress suggested the egg, bacon, hash browns, and toast meal, and we subbed the toast for a pancake. That raised the price of the meal by 5 bucks, which the waitress failed to mention. Not a huge deal but I only had 30 dollars in cash when I went so didn't have much money left over to tip appropriately.

Absolutely amazing food. Had to wait a bit to sit since they were busy, but the food was amazing. Had the corned beef hash and a single cinnamon roll pancake. Will definitely go back.

Great place for brunch. The food was tasty. As we had a celebration, we also got a pancake on the house.

Great menu, atmosphere, and service. Chris (the server) was very knowledgeable about the menu and was more than happy to provide recommendations. OMG! French Toast was very tasty and worth it. Highly recommend this restaurant.

During my travels on Main Street, I had always seen this place and wanted to stop in. Well after a concert in the park, I finally had the opportunity! When I walked in, the place was beautiful; clean, well-lit and a TV with sports on. But a bad sign was there was just one couple dining at 8pm on a Wed! So I gazed the menu for something that would tickle my fancy, and when nothing did, I asked the girl waiting on me what was the most popular burger for her customers: she responded with THE GOAT! So I order that and a soda --- $14+ bucks The meat was high quality, but the overall taste was compounded by mustard and pickles SOLELY! No lettuce, no tomato and the bun was pedestrian! I was so excited to eat there since they said they were established in 1979 --- when I was a 10th grader! But you need more than nostalgia! If I do come back it won't be for this so- called goat . . . be I highly doubt it! Tell me if this burger is appealing and/or deserving of a 10 dollar plus price!?

You gotta try their smashed style burgers or breakfast burritos. Best bacon I've had...thick and crispy perfection. Excellent food here. This place will easily be a local favorite. Oddly, there is a jukebox and photo booth kiosk on the wall near the register. Was surprised to see one in a restaurant like this. Oh yeah, don't forget about the "secret menu"

This place has great burgers that I love coming here for but their menu is too limited. They serve salads but don’t have a side salad on their menu. I don’t usually eat french fries so I would much rather get a salad with my burger but they don’t offer it, it’s like, you have the stuff just make a smaller salad. The employees are nice but seem get orders wrong easily. Other than that, this place is great.

I REALLY wanted to love this place since I'm a huge fan of burger city grill in Torrance but I won't be back. Thanks for food anyways.

I go here quite a bit, it's close to my house... foods always freshly cooked to order. Big box mostly, their app is awesome. I can't say enough, the staff is always on point even when busy. The food in the box always rocks,nice touch with the cookie too!

This is a great place for a quick and bite, decent, bite. The burgers are comparable to a smashburger, but I think there is a less greasy take on this one. The burger had a good seasoning on the meat. The tomato, lettuce, and avocado were all fresh and crisp. The side of onion rings were seasoned well, not greasy, and a good portion. It's definitely a place to eat at again. I've seen them around but never stopped by one. This place was recently remodeled and looks great. The service is great and employees were all very hospitable.

Recently made a visit after hearing they finally opened up at a new location in OC. Had the Fantastic burger and DUI fries. Both were great! The burger was fantastic, nice thick cut bacon, seasoned well. The DUI fries were some of the best I've had the chili is excellent. For dessert I had a captain crunch shake, delicious!

This Mexican restaurant is a decent option, especially considering its 24-hour availability. It's perfect for grabbing a late-night bite after leaving the bars or attending a late event. However, the food could use improvement as the meats were lacking seasoning and overly oily but they give great portions. The limited menu options were a downside. On the bright side, the restaurant is clean, well-maintained, and offers ample seating and parking. Overall, it's a good choice but not the best.

This spot was ok plenty of indoor and outdoor seating and seemed well maintained. The food was decent I ordered tacos they were nicely filled service wasn't bad only issue I had was the guy trying to make my Tacos couldn't understand English had the deer in the headlights look when I tried ordering food, granted it is a Mexican restaurant but you would think they would let someone who couldn't communicate take orders considering it's in Orange not Santa Ana and there customer base probably isn't majority Spanish speakers

We got pastor and asada tacos. Honestly, wasn't flavorful at all, quite bland. Definitely looks better than it tastes. You do get a lot of meat for the price however.

Server :Alma Lilia, please stop LOLing with the taquero. My order was made wrong in two perspectives, receipt order that printed is wrong and the way it was prepared is wrong. Like my wet burrito was made off a guess or vibes. I asked for a wet burrito with cheese de al pastor, light rice with green and red salsa. Order on receipt says no rice? What I got: wet burrito with only green salsa and mostly rice. I’m not driving back to Taqueria Hoy for no damn $14.55 cent burrito. Lastly the meat is like chicharrón? It’s hard and like shredded to tiny pieces? Hardly any meat tbh. Just do better mis girl and kitchen peoples too man.

Plentiful serving sizes. Great staff. Food is good but the taco meat is not cooked while waiting; the meat is served from a warning bin.However it tastes pretty good. Fresh cooked carne asada is taste best directly from the grill.

We are neighbors and have supported Taqueria HOY since they opened, but can no longer do so. Their carne asada burritos are delicious, but have doubled in price from $5.50 to $11 apiece. We are not financially struggling people, but have sadly been priced out.

Authentic, delicious, great portion size, $9.76 out the door for a carne asada burrito. Did i say delicious? 24 hr drive thru. But plenty of seating inside and out. Some of the best and quickest Mexican food in town. Cheaper but better than Chipotle. Just what I needed!

Food is good, no issue there. Really the big problem here is that there are no prices anywhere on the menu. You are ordering blindly and you are left to be asking for prices on everything. Essentially you're ordering blindly. Then your receipt doesn't break down prices, only the total. To that, add a surcharge for using a card to pay. Just not a good business practice, specially at a restaurant. MANAGEMENT: i don't believe anyone will read this but please invest on some new menu with pricing. Be upfront and we will have no issues.

Got a combo for around $16. The chicken breast was juicy and tasted good, and the service was very good too. Three stars because no prices on the menu (a review from a couple months ago also mentioned this) is a significant business impediment.

I like the burgers, so I deal with the service. The service is fine as far as taking your order and bringing out your food. Issue is no one is friendly. They never look at you when they take your money or give you change. They literally drop your change on the counter while they intentionally turn away from you. They don't say thank you. They don't smile. You don't get that welcome feeling you expect from a small business. Someone trained them to say "welcome" when you walk in the door, but it ends there. When there aren't customers at the counter, they will smile and laugh with each other behind the counter but no smiles for customers.

Got food to go and it was okay. They forgot our fries. Carne Asada Burrito 3.5/5 - The burrito had a good amount of meat, rice, beans, and vegetables. It was flavorful, but also a bit salty.

Looking for a good burger joint that isn't IN-N-OUT or Jack in the Box or overpriced Nexx Burger? Look no further!! Hercules Burgers has everything plus Burgers! The food is great, service is phenomenal but the inside of Hercules is not too desirable. Tables and chairs and booths need a bit of a facelift including outside patio decor and the sign itself. The bathrooms are even worse, they need total remodel!! I wouldn't take those negativities as something to pass up Hercules though! The food doesn't reflect the atmosphere or the decor or the bathrooms and oh drive thru is fast! I honestly really enjoyed my burger and fries from there today! So try them out!

11/18/2022 = 5 Star = 1st time here and i notice that this store has a very good costumer service , and serving is huge , i really recommend this place .

Praise YAHUAH the LORD! Praise Yahuaha HaMashiach Jesus Christ! Praise the Ruach HaKodesh the Holy Spirit! Pastrami and Pastrami on everything!!! EBT HOT FOODS RMP PROGRAM ACCEPTED!!!

So it was a rainy day and a last minute decision to get chicken and rice. This place is in a super small shopping area that only has a few places and it sits by itself across from apartments or townhomes. Is off the freeway so pretty accessible but didn’t even know about this location. It wasn’t busy on a Thursday evening around 6 pm. I got in, ordered and received the food pretty quick. The chicken bowl and steak bowls were good and the serving portions were fine. You do have to pack your own carrots, sauce, and utensils yourself even to go orders. The staff wasn’t too friendly and they don’t offer information until you ask a question. They could clean more, especially since they’re not busy, especially during the wet floor from the rain. It was a bit slippery.

I would like to take a moment to express my sincere appreciation for the outstanding service provided by Roberto and Blanca. They are both exceptionally kind, helpful, and professional individuals. Their positive attitude, warm smiles, and willingness to assist at all times truly make a difference. It is always a pleasure interacting with them, and their dedication does not go unnoticed. Please extend my gratitude to them for their excellent work. Thank you guys…

Chives station with carrot and jalapeno option makes this place kinda desirable to visit. You can also get as much teriyaki sauce as you want, the place is clean and usually there's some in space available.. free water cup and I like the marshmellow bar they have available at this location.

What I’ve noticed it’s a lack of respect and communication between the “Manager” and (some) employees. I guess there was a new person under training making the wait impossible to bare with it making the new employee more nervous but the manager has a very poor sense of responsibility and proper management skills I saw him belittling the employee and making the rest of the customers as well as myself very uncomfortable.

We had never eaten here before and it was delicious! Good options and good portions. Liz was sooo helpful and patient with us. Great service!!!

They mixed up my order, but I don't mind. It was a fun experience.

I had a nice experience here at waba Liz was so kind and polite during my visit. Thank you for service 😊

Ordered online pickup thinking it would be fast after picking up dog post surgery from vet. Waited over 30 minutes for pick up Order. Could have gone through regular line 3 times. Many customers waiting for pick up. Order with pick up time later than those waiting was made before. Manager clearly can't mange jack and should be fired immediately.

Horrible experience! Talk about disgusting filth! Wife and I went in for dinner. 6:40pm 03/01/2025. Being that I was focused on the menu, I honestly did not look at the place till we waited for our order and my wife went to the restroom to wash her hands. The trash cans were overflowing, the floors were dirty, tables were filthy. My wife comes back from the restroom and said it was absolutely disgusting and the floors were full of urine! All while one employee just stood behind the counter doing NOTHING! Not sure if its his job to keep an eye over the shoulder of the cashier but that all he did! The only time he moved was to get on his cell phone. Is it possible that at this time and on a Sunday there are just no managers? This will be the one and only time I step into this CHIPOTLE!

Well can't go wrong with this area.. I have been going here since High school, ever since an old friend who always brought chips and guac almost on a daily basis and shared a bit... who am I kidding I almost ate them all... But yeah, I was hooked and till this day I go at least twice a month. Highly recommended this place, the staff is friendly and the food is good. They don't offer a lot of variety but they focus on what they do right.

This location is so dirty. This place need to be remodeled badly. Bathrooms, stink, and look horrible paint is dingy and extremely dirty like nobody scrubs anything. Back of the chairs are black from dirty hands and grease tables are barely holding on. The food is decent, but I’d much rather go to the Anaheim location than this location. If I have the time it grosses me out to eat here, but I do out of necessity sometimes. The music is so extremely loud you cannot have a conversation with anybody even sitting right next to you. It’s a little obnoxious.

Be warned they start closing everything down really early at the is location. Not even 9:30pm and they are out of corn and refused to get anymore and told me you are just out it luck. I would advise the managerment to adjust their closing time early if they don't want to keep things in stock till closing.

I don’t know what happened to serving sizes but they went down big time I don’t know if management changed but they need go back to how they used to serve before this reminding me La Habra poor performance.

Walking in was very welcoming the location was very clean and organized. The workers at the time of visit were very friendly and helpful. The manager on at the time was I believe Liliana amazing customer service and very great at her job. Got my 1 yr old steak and she asked if it was for my son as she was in the cashier position I told her yes and she suggested the chicken or carnitas instead because the steak was a little spicy so we got him chicken instead. thanks Liliana for making our visit an enjoyable one.

This is the sweetest and yummiest bakery in Orange. I love their delicious empanadas, dulce de Leche alfajor and sandwiches. This is my treat after shopping across the street. What a perfect afternoon to enjoy my favorite chicken empanada and a glass of wine!

After leaving Disneyland, we found this place on Google. It was excellent and reminded me of the years I lived in Argentina. We had the Milanesa Napolitana and various empanadas. All very good. I will come back next time I am in the area.

We ordered the beef, chicken, and Arab empanadas. They were delicious! The chimichurri sauce was amazing. Everything tasted fresh and homemade. 💓

Loved the fact that they numbered (embossed) the empanadas so you won’t have to rip them to find out what it is inside.

Cozy atmosphere. The food is so fresh and tastes wonderful.

Mouth watering deliciousness. We drive a good distance for the empanadas because they are as good as any we found in South America. The pastries & deserts are fantastic. The owner is a wonderful, gregarious community hub of a person who makes the whole experience possible It’s a must!

The food here is pretty good, the atmosphere is average (it's a small shop with not much interior decor). However, I think that most people come here for the food, not the decor. The empanadas are pretty decent here. I recommend the hot sandwiches as well as the entrana steak chimichurri dish. Also, there's a wide selection of desserts here as it's also a bakery. Cheers.

I usually order the Ham & Cheese omelette for breakfast when I go here. This one had added avocado fyi. They are pretty solid for a bagel place that makes other things. Kinda dig their breakfast potatoes, nothing terribly special, probably from a frozen mass produced bag, but works for me. If you have a need for an omelette and don’t want to over pay at Kimmies, or get to hipster with Snooze, give em a shot.

I came here for lunch with my friends and all three of us loved our food. I got a bagel ham sandwich, my one friend got a lox spread, and my other friend got a citrus blend smoothie. We'll definitely be back for more

I've never been a big breakfast girl... Except for bagels. And this place has amazing bagels! It's also much more than a bagel place since they sell a lot of other food. They're burgers are good too! Overall it's a cute little place and they're open pretty early which is great for when I want some quick breakfast.

Had the turkey avocado bagel on a regular bagel due the egg bagel being out. I went towards the end of lunch so this is expected. I was pleasantly surprised of how good this bagel sandwich tasted. The fries are amazing! The restaurant and facilities were clean.

Fueling up between games at Bagel Me in downtown Orange. Junior Olympics grind, father-son time, and the best bagels in town. 🥯💪 #WaterPoloJO #BagelBreak #DadLife

VERY DISAPPOINTED ): I had high expectations for this cute little bagel shop.. I ordered an everything cheese bagel with cream cheese and added avocado on top.. I wanted to add lemon pepper to add flavor to my avocado BUT it would have been 4$ MORE just for SEASONING! when I received my order I was presented with bruised/not fresh avocado AND they put my order on the incorrect bagel.. I had them remake my order but the workers were not happy to make things right which FURTHERED my disappointment with this place. NEVER will I return. Because CASSIDYS CORNER has WAY better bagels and right prices for what you get served! Check them out.

I like this place. And is my go to place for breakfast if I didn't get a chance to have breakfast at home. But I'm quite disappointed at how thin the lox is cut and for 18.00. It's not worth it. It's so thin you see through it and the capers and cream cheese.

I've not been in a Quiznos for years, because there are so few around anymore, and none where I normally am, so was eager to go there on my way home from an appointment. They did not disappoint, though I wish they put more bacon on the Honey Bacon Club like they used to, but everyone is cutting everything back it seems. The HBC is still my favorite! Quiznos is still the best sub I've ever had, and that includes virtually all of there competition in SoCal, at least.

Great food super friendly staff. I went a few months back with a friend of mine, we drove about 50 miles on a road trip just to relive the nostalgia of Quiznos since all the ones in my area have closed, and your staff did not disappoint. Keep up the great work!

Great experience I went in, 4 people in front of me, about 25 behind me. Only 1 worker. Ricardo! This guy was a magician at taking orders, making the food and checking out.... constantly smiling and upbeat. Thus was a stressful hour for Ricardo and he mastered it. He acts like a boss that is very engaged in his busines. Sadly I do not get the impression he has any ownership. Ricardo, if you ever lose this job, come work for me. Your enthusiasm is infectious.

Stopped by for the 1st time to grab a sandwich around 11:45 am on Sunday 8/14/16 but they weren't open as the info here in Google Maps reflected they would be. Hopefully it's just a case of in accurate information and not willful negligence. Maybe I'll try again in the future and I will have a great experience. Will update review either way.

How unprofessional to not have the actual hours your open and available online! How many years ago did the Internet come out? I live in San Diego and went out of my way to stop there on a road trip because I love Quiznos but ALL the San Diego locations closed… Please update your hours online

The worst Quiznos I've ever been to. If you come on a Saturday there is always just one guy working by himself, so it takes foreeeeever. I've come on weekdays too and it seems like the employees have no idea what's going on. I'm in line right now and the cashier is literally on his phone texting or something while two people are waiting to pay. There were only 2 people in line in front of me and I've been here for 15 min. Sloooow service and employees are in desperate need of training / management

I had a sandwich there. It was a lousy sandwich. The bread was toasted and was okay. The meatballs were horrible and the sauce was nasty. It is located in a tiny strip mall with hardly any parking. There are other places to park, but those all charge for parking. The sandwiches all cost $8.00 at least for a large. It isn't worth the price or the hassle.
