50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Brea

“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!“

“The food was bomb! The fish was so fresh! And they only use blue fin tuna! It melted in my mouth! I absolutely loved it! The spot is cute! The service was great! They are so attentive! I highly recommend coming with a big appetite because there is a lot on the menu that you have to get! The fatty tuna was sooo good! And i was also impressed by their ramen! It was rich and smooth!“

“What a treat to have an Ubatuba in our area now! Our kids loved the acai bowl the M size is perfect for sharing and they get to choose all their favorite fruit toppings. The shop is clean and open and there is a water bottle fountain filling station that is nice and convenient. Will come back for more and try smoothies.“

“Great experience. I received some food from a friend and was told about how nice the employees were from Zach, Crystal, and Ken.

I heard about how there was a company loyalty program and the food itself was 44g of protein. Will stop by here again! 👍“

“This place was amazing. From start to finish you can tell all of the produce is fresh and everybody who works there really cares about the food they're turning out. The manager walked around and checked with every table to see if they were happy and felt accommodated.“

“The cookies are always great. The employees sometimes stand around and ignore customers that need help using the touchscreen order pad. I have witnessed older people walk in, not know how to use the touch screen device, and employees just watch them struggle. Other than that everything is great.“

“First time visiting and food was amazing and our server Damian was fantastic! We will be back!!“

“What a great find. The restaurant and the coffee! I try to stop in whenever I'm in the area for a delicious cup of coffee. Great job, fellas!“

“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“

“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.“

“The Best of Mediterranean“

“Delicious grilled shrimp tacos with cabbage and plain diced tomatoes - the shrimp was prepared perfectly. My husband had grilled chicken breast tacos which were also delicious. Wish list: sliced plain avocado or avocado crema for the topping on the shrimp taco! 😊🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“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“

“Always good treats on warm days. You can never go wrong.“

“We love love your restaurant!! You have the best grilled chicken ever!! We dine here about twice a month. We love Paris she is a fantastic server. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience every time. ❤️“

“Clean atmosphere, beautiful smiles“

“Fire fire fire 🐥Great Chicken & Waffle“

“It's a Pho restaurant, what'd you expect the atmosphere to be? In all seriousness, the food is great. The portions are definitely greater than what'd you expect. And the price is definitely comparable to the amount of good food you're getting.

Shout out to Sal! He runs the show quite well!“

“It was my first time coming here and I definitely was not disappointed. Our server Michelle was so amazing and she literally went above and beyond. Her service was next level and she was so sweet and welcoming. Will definitely be coming back again. Sushi was amazing as well!“

“First time there… the food was excellent and the service was great! Friendly and very helpful. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Thank you so much to Polly's and Lori specifically for putting up with our crazy group of elderly family members with strange dietary preferences. The food was delicious, service was great and her patience was praiseworthy! She liked talking to everyone more than I did 😜“

“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 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.“

“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“

“Yummy seasonal rose latte!“

“I started ordering there coffee with my new job being around the corner. WOW, delicious, their New London coffee is exquisite! I'm sure they recognized I ordered the morning before, and gifted me a free cheese danish, i could cry. Best coffee shop in brea if you ask my opinion.. :)“

“Express Wok has been our family’s go-to takeaway for Chinese food. We’ve been coming here for YEARS!Their Orange Chicken, Sweet Chili Chicken and Teriyaki Chicken are some of our favorites.Annie’s customer service is amazing and she always has a friendly greeting when you walk in.It’s a popular spot so they are constantly cooking dishes to replace those that are running low.Good value and great portions! The food is so tasty and yummy.“

“Ok, I’m gonna be honest, at first I thought it’s like an American-brunchy kinda coffee store. Not bad but like way too sweet lolololololol
But hear me out, I think I wanna say this is the best matcha oat milk and medium roast cold brew I’ve ever had (especially the cold brew, never really a fan) but it’s SO Good!! (Both my friend and I approve!!)
*I did the get matcha with like the minimum sugar level lol“

“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.“

“I received the best customer service on Monday Morning at Mountain Mikes Pizza in Brea...She was a sweet lady...I don't remember her name...But, her friendly demeanor made my entire day...and My birthday pizza was FLAWLESS... If she reads this...or someone from that store...or one of my friends visiting that store...please tell her thank you. Tony“

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

“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.“

“Their burritos are amazing“

“Finally some good food. I've got to say that the owner of this restaurant and the staff there are the most nicest down-to-earth 💞“

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

“Hidden Gem

Pros:
Good food
Big portions
Friendly service
Nice ambiance ( in hotel )
Typically, no wait to seat

Cons:
Parking costs money downstairs
Slightly slow since they're not usually busy“

“Best AYCE Korean BBQ ever! Im Korean and was already over the bad quality ayce kbbq places but 356 Korean BBQ was the best I've had!!! I recommend getting their LIMITED menu beef which has the wagu short rib, ribeye steak, short rib, wagu sushi, marinated kobe beef, and rib strips. Also the endless banchans and kimchi jjige, soy bean paste soup, steamed egg, and they even have pho. Didn't have the stomach to try the whole menu bc there were so many choices but I would definitely come back here for kbbq nights! This place isn't really known yet so if you are in Orange County try this one in Brea“

“Super friendly. When I’m in town again, I will be back.“

“We stopped in for a quick bite to eat (“eat to bite:” Tom Hanks in “Terminal,” 2004). Had a very nice sandwich, and a restful time to enjoy it.“

“The food service atmosphere is phenomenal
We went to one near cerritos before the food quality is subpar.
But this in Brea mall is unbelievable so good. Food quality is fresh and their service is super nice. Absolutely love the vibe here.“

“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.“

“Came in for lunch on a Wednesday. Pretty chill inside. Plenty of TVs for sports, comfortable seating.

Our waitress was Ari. She was fantastic. Truly brightened up my day. Very cute and bubbly person with a contagious energy to her.

She recommended the steak sandwich, the blackened Ahi sandwich and the Red Ale. All solid choices.

Service was prompt food was good, but I would say one thing I would like to see is more value from the menu - in terms of sides and such. Feels like chips + a sandwich for 16-17 bucks is a bit much. Especially for the portions.

Otherwise, Ari made the visit incredibly pleasant and enjoyable and was prompt and attentive at every turn.“

“Quick stop before taking children to school“

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

“They are always kind and have books for children and adults. 🩷“

“Nice little diner that's around the corner. The food is good overall but priced 20-25% high based on what it is.. We usually split the order between two people since the quantity is enough and cuts the cost in half versus two entrees. I recommend Kimmies for sure.“

“Mayra and the team at Starbucks are putting in WORK today (and probably everyday). I came to work here to the last couple of days and they are running like a well oiled machine! Despite a huge influx of customers early in the morning, the team was cheerful and gettin ordered prepared as fast as possible. When I arrive there were about 20 teenagers here before school and they were all cleared out fairly quickly.

Yesterday I tried a gingerbread latte and it was good, today I got an Americano with gingerbread syrup and it wasn’t quite sweet enough so Mayra helped me out and it was so good! Taylor was also very cheerful and making sure guests knew that they were being taken care of/their orders were on the way and overall just had a great vibe to her as she helped customers!

I was super productive while working here which was great too!

Appreciate the hard work during the holidays and the positive attitudes. Thank you!“

“I highly recommend this charming café. Delicious crepes sweet and savory. My favorite is le moulin rouge - a salmon crepe with capers and cream. My husband loves the all day breakfast and my daughter loves the ham and cheese crepes. I also recommend the strawberry and Nutella crepes. The staff is incredibly nice and friendly.“

“Very nice place to get baked goods and cakes. The baked goods were delicious they had a great donut and croissant selection. The cake was good and looks great just wasn’t the best as far as flavor goes. The service here was good very friendly and helpful staff. I really liked this place. They do discounted baked goods at the end of the night so come in if you want to grab some of the baked goods that are left at the end of the day for a great price. I’d recommend coming here.“
