“My daughter and I ate there yesterday for the first time! The chicken was very tender and tasty… I recommend the chicken club sandwich. My daughter got the Cobb salad and the portion was huge! Their specialty lemonades are really good too! I tried the strawberry and basil! Yum!“

“Came for rubios and found a new restaurant
Didn’t know what to expect but we gave it a whirl. Fresh and delicious and nice variety of options. We loved the bread!!! We got the Tuscan chicken sandwich. Delish!!!! Will come back for the happy hour !!“

“My friends and I tried this place out and we loved it. We started with the meatballs and then got the rib eye. Everything was fantastic. We tried a couple different drinks and everything was really good. I’ll be back“

“My wife and I, plus my daughter Jennifer and granddaughter Breanna were very much please with our dinner last night. Michael our server came out and created us, by saying it was so nice to see you here again. Michael remember our drink order and promtly brought it out to us. The job Michael did from start to finish was amazing. From getting our order out on time and the desert was perfect for my granddaughter Breanna and my wife's as well. Always asking if everything came out right and if we needed anything else. What a perfect evening and servers like Michael make us want to eat here often. Thanks again to you Michael for giving us a beautiful evening.“

“Been eating here for many years, but I'm moiling farther away. I miss their salid bar. The staff is always friendly and the food is great“

“They have a patio area to hold and event. Check them out it's amazing here.“

“This is a surprisingly nice restaurant inside Nordstrom's. The server was excellent. We were not rushed but he appeared the moment we needed something. The food was very good. I have had the burger and another time, the fried chicken sandwich. My friends had the salad nicoise which was delicious and filling. For the evening, the cocktails are good as well. The window seating is lovely since until the weather is warm enough for their terrace seating. Take the elevator to the 5th floor, and you won't be tempted by the January sales.“

“Best pastrami

Started in highschool with the OG in Alhambra on valley Blvd... Where we could get a pastrami fries and a drink for under 5.00 got the same thing today for $19. 76...🤦🏽‍♀ But still good so worth it“

Parking costs money downstairs

“I stopped by this morning because I was craving some really good pancakes, and they definitely hit the spot! 🥞 My breakfast was absolutely delicious, and the coffee was fresh and perfect. It was nice and quiet before the morning rush, which made it even more enjoyable.

Our server, Sonia, was incredibly sweet and kind. She always had a smile on her face and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. The food was amazing, and the service was outstanding. I’ll definitely be coming back!👍😋☺“

“Every time I deliver to this DC, the highlight of the day is the yummy fare from this food truck. They have never disappointed me or my taste buds and I tell everyone to try them if I know a driver is coming here. Next level breakfast burritos for the win. Thanks folks. You are awesome. ?“

“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.“

“I used to come here a lot and was obsessed with the vegan taquitos. I’m so sad they got rid of them from the menu! I recently went back today to try their new menu, and I enjoyed the vegan fajita bowl. I didn’t feel stuffed after, and liked the flavors. Will definitely be coming back here to get some lunch to go if I’m ever in need of a vegan option on a lazy cooking day.“

“The food was really good and the gentleman working behind the counter was courteous and professional, the older lady was very rude and impatient. Will not be going again“

“I took my family here for brunch and we had an awesome time. The food was delicious and unique. Our favorite was the Uber French toast. The service was amazing. The place was nicely decorated and the vibe is lively and vibrant. We will be back again.“

“I have had The One Breakfast Burrito 3 different times now and each time I have been blown away! Now prior to this I wasn't into Breakfast burritos. They were either all half cooked hash browns and lot of eggs with little to no meat. Or all the ingredients like the meat and cheese were on one side and the eggs on the other ingredients were on the other side and dry with no consistency. I love The One Breakfast Burrito!! The ingredients are fresh and they way it is built you will have meat, eggs, tater tots, cheese and sauce in every bite! The tater tots gives this burrito a different texture and taste. No dry half done potatoes. And the service is great, I oder and go pick of from Doordash.“

“the best burgers 🍔 around 😋“

“🍅 🍲 And a lot of friendly peoples. Atmosphere is very nice and decorated.“

“This restaurant was highly recommended by a friend of mind. I was having a party and ordered their tri tip meat with salad and breadsticks. It was outstanding and tasty. My guests loved it. Since I love to cook they complimented the delicious meat. I had to tell them I purchased it. I’ll be ordering it again. Tonight we’re having yummy leftovers. Gloria and her Manager were very helpful in selecting the food I wanted to serve at the party. They were very patient with my order.“

“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.“

“7/14/22 I made a lunch reservation for six of us today at the Brea, California location. Best food ever, of course. But, the biggest kudos go to our server-Eluzia! I cannot remember having a better server anywhere(and I’m an old lady). This young person had it all, from the smile on her face, to her knowledge of the menu, to her impeccable service, to her willingness to get whatever we needed! If you are lucky enough to have Eluzia serve your meal, you’re in for a super time.“

“Had a lovely and delicious brunch. Avocado toast is 🔥! Lavender latte for the win!!“

“Haven’t dined at Red Lobster in over 15 years. Food was wonderful and the service was great! Nice location, friendly staff and abundant seating. Highly recommended!“

“After ~24 hours of travel and flights my family wanted to go to a burger place for a quick dinner before sleep. We were tired and arguing, ready to throw in the towel, but The Breakfast Factory delivered! Double cheese burgers, the loaded fries, delicious. This feels like it saved my marriage, my children still love me, and the holiday is off to a good start all due to the service and food here!
Thanks so much. Will certainly be back in the next few days as I can walk from the Hilton Brea! :)“

“Came here last Friday. When it was packed in the afternoon. Wait took 15-30 mins but it was worth it.

I usually go to the Irvine Spectrum and eat at the CPK there once in a while. But my friends and I wanted to see how the CPK in Brea would compare.

I ordered the chicken tequila fettuccine and it was amazing but I wish they still had the spinach noodles; they had run out but the food was still really good. The guac n chips paired well with the Passion Fruit Tea and overall the food was amazing.

The atmosphere was okay, it was pretty warm inside and a little cramped but that’s because the whole place was packed.

Our server Daniel took very good care of us while still being able to help other tables. It felt like at one point he was the only server available on half the side of the restaurant. He did a wonderful job and his positive attitude during the busy rush is so refreshing.

Overall, I would say BREA CPK is slightly better than the other CPKs mainly because of the service. The chicken tequila would have probably been better if the spinach noodles were available and they had originally added abit more sauce.

Plan on coming again, hopefully with Daniel being around!“
