“LET ME TELL YOU.... This Place is the BOMB.... I almost didn't go because I was going to the Italian resteraunf next door believing the hype.... NO... skip the Italian resteraunt and come here... Sat down.. in the end I couldn't even stop eating when I went in not too hungry... but it was worth it and the price is worth the Quality. They don't use any cheap stuff and fresh Only.

I order this food and I can be picky... This is the Best Resteraunt Next to Peohe's in San Diego Coronado... I am not exaggerating... i don't know who the chef is or the owners but BELIEVE THIS PLACE NEEDS TO BE ON T.V ... the way it looks on the plate, the taste, Every detail made me feel like im in Hawaii in a movie eating. The Price Matches the Quality and you get Enough food... not any food It has tastes that you have never had.

Do Not go to the Italian Resteraunt across it sucks, the service sucks, food is over rated go to this place I recommend it to others. It tastes like the Best food in San Diego. I drove almost an hour to go eat here and was worth it.

Ignore the bad reviews I saw some Karen's on here already complaining that's orange county for you... entitled. ... but Go for urself. The drinks too were so unique. Will be back over and over..”

Red Lantern 746 North Brea Boulevard, Brea Chinese • $

“The food is usually always good. We really like the chicken fried rice. BUT tonight we got 2 orders of the chicken fried rice and it is tasteless. Terrible. A little dry, NO eggs, maybe 6 single peas and 3 small bites of carrots. Where are the vegetable that are usually there? Do you have a new cook? It was so bad we thought it was a different rice. The rest of the food was good. If it was our first time we probably would never order the chicken fried rice again. I gave 4 stars because historically the food is typically good. If I could, one star for the rice.”

Thai 7 Bistro 215 West Birch Street Suite 2, Brea Thai • $

“As someone who is particular about Thai food, Thai Seven in Downtown Brea genuinely impressed me. This is one of those hidden gems where you can immediately tell there is real attention being paid to the kitchen.

The first thing that stood out was the aroma—the unmistakable fragrance of a properly fired wok, with that smoky depth that gives Thai cooking so much character. The Spaghetti Kee Mao was exceptional: aromatic, savory, beautifully seasoned, and full of wok-fired flavor without being overwhelmed by sauce. The popcorn chicken arrived golden and remarkably crisp, yet remained tender and juicy inside.

The biggest surprise was the Crying Tiger beef. It was beautifully grilled, tender, flavorful, and easily comparable to something I would expect from a quality steakhouse. The execution was excellent.

Beyond the food, the service was attentive and welcoming. Owner Nova personally made us feel at home, adding the kind of genuine hospitality that separates a good restaurant from a memorable one.

Thai Seven isn’t trying to reinvent Thai cuisine—it simply executes it extremely well. Authentic flavors, proper wok cooking, quality ingredients, and genuine hospitality. For anyone searching for excellent Thai food in the Brea area, this hidden gem in the heart of Downtown Brea deserves your attention.

One important thing to know: Thai Seven is under new ownership. For anyone reading older negative reviews, I would encourage you to give this restaurant another look. Things have changed. The quality of the food, service, and overall experience we received reflects a restaurant moving in a very positive direction.”

I’m very picky about where I get my teriyaki.
My sister had brought me a bowl to try out.

I got the small bowl. Just the teriyaki chicken and rice. They give you a lot of chicken and big pieces too. They also have extra teriyaki sauce and hot sauce. Ohh and they have free fountain drinks between 2-4 pm. My order was to go. Love this spot.”

“honestly i was expecting a basic golf course bar with nothing but bud light and old peanuts but it actually has a solid craft beer selection including a couple local ipas i hadnt tried before. grabbed a burger and it was cooked perfectly with fresh toppings even though it took a little longer than i hoped to come out. the view from the patio looks right over the course so it a nice spot to just hang out and the servers were super friendly even when it got busy. my only small thing is the parking lot is kind of a mess especially on weekend afternoons with people dodging golfers. definitely will be back for the beer list alone even if im not playing that day.”

“Brought my family to grab lunch and escape the heat and had a fantastic time! Service was excellent as always and our server Kayla was so friendly and attentive. She made sure to check in with us every time she walked by and made sure we always had drink, soup and salad refills. The manager also came by to check in with us once he heard we had an allergy at the table. He came to make sure he understood the allergy and reassured us of how they would handle the food and prevent and cross contamination. He even came out with Kayla to deliver the food and make sure we knew that it had been specially prepared.

“Food
I ordered the three roll special. I had the shrimp, pork sausage, and bulgogi beef. The shrimp roll was as expected, light, fresh, and tasty. The sausage was the best. It had the best flavor and really stood out. The beef was dry, okay flavor-wise, but oh so dry. Each roll had lettuce, shredded carrot, cilantro, cucumbers, mint, and garlic chives. These added crunch, texture, and a freshness that really was nice.

Service
Great, fast and efficient service. My order was correct in every detail.

Atmosphere
It is a mall. So mall vibes.”

OMOMO TEA SHOPPE 391 S State College Blvd STE U, Brea Bubble Tea

“Omomo Tea Shoppe in Brea was a very good experience overall. We tried some of their special drinks, and they were definitely flavorful, rich, and well-made. The drinks had a nice creamy texture and a strong sweetness that made them feel more like a dessert than a regular tea drink.

The presentation was appealing, and the flavors tasted carefully put together. You can tell their drinks are not basic or generic. They have a more premium and creative feel compared to many other tea shops, which makes the experience more memorable.

That being said, the drinks were quite heavy. They tasted good, but because they were so creamy and sweet, they might be a little too rich if you are looking for something light or refreshing. I enjoyed them, but I probably would not order them too often unless I was specifically craving something sweet and indulgent.

Overall, Omomo Tea Shoppe is a great spot for high-quality specialty drinks. The flavors are creamy, sweet, and satisfying, but a bit heavy depending on your preference.”

Philz Coffee 1240 Brea Mall, Brea Coffee Shops • $

“The Bottom Line Up Front:
In a world filled with corporations masquerading as sophisticated boutiques, Philz is a growing chain that still retains a cozy atmosphere while serving up great coffee. I've been to other Philz, but this review will focus on this Brea location.

The Drink:
I got the seasonal salted caramel cold brew and it was delicious. Picture Starbucks' caramel macchiato but less sweet and with less acidic espresso. This Philz drink was smooth and creamy, with enough caffeine kick to keep me powered throughout the day.

The Service:
Our barista was very knowledgeable and offered a few suggestions and a couple of samples so that I could make the right selection. Grade A service!

The Setting:
Located in the new section of Brea Mall, this Philz location is a freestanding building so you have to walk outside of the mall to access it from the southwest side. There's no street parking, so you'll need to park in the large parking structure across from Nordstrom (currently...but they are doing more construction so this could change in the future).

The Conclusion:
As part of a franchise that doesn't act like one, the Brea location of Philz offers great coffee with excellent customer service.”

“Five stars all the way for this bistro and cafe in the Pointe building center at the 57 and Lambert. Usually when I go to most cafes or fast-casual places for breakfast or lunch, I end up with a bland sandwich that is too small so I end up buying chips and/or dessert that I don't need or really want. I've never had this problem at On Pointe.

One of On Pointe Bistro's strengths is that the breakfast and lunch items are generously portioned while also being fresh and flavorful. I've had the breakfast waffles with fresh fruit, chilaquiles, open faced caprese sandwich, and a bowl with lentils, kale, carrots, tofu, and other healthy items. The bread in the caprese sandwich is one of the most flavorful breads I've tried in Orange County.

On Pointe Bistro offers a lot of vegetarian options which is nice. I've tried their meat-based breakfast sausage too, and it's also full of flavor, well-cooked, and neither burnt nor greasy. My wife had a cucumber agua fresca that she said was very refreshing. All of their food seems freshly prepared with high-quality ingredients. They do have grab and go items and a salad bar, both of which I want to try.

Parking is easy here. You can park in the garage next to the bistro for free and there is also free parking near the hair salon and Starbucks on Lambert. They are cashless which I think is easiest for most people. The service is also prompt and warm. The bistro has a modest lounge with lots of clean, minimal seating. They are closed on weekends and close in the early afternoon. I think this bistro is a nice alternative for people wanting to try a new cafe in the area.”

“Its pub food, it was ok, but I ordered a BBQ pizza, not expecting it to be spicy and had corn on it, never had a BBQ pizza like that, nor did I want it. I wasn't impressed.
On a good note the service was great! The young lady did a fantastic job, we were a group 7, and she took very good care of us.
Its is a very cool place, I loved the atmosphere. Cozy warm and definitely appealing.
Bottom line, I wasn't there for the beer, and not a fan of spicy food. So you decide. Im not trying to say it was horrible, but I'm just not into spicy food.”

What really stands out is the variety of food. From high-quality cuts of meat to all the different sides and options, there’s something for everyone. Whether you’re going classic with brisket and short rib or trying some of their other specialties, everything feels thoughtfully curated and fresh.

Great atmosphere, great selection, and just an overall fun place to dine. Definitely coming back.”
