“Kelsey, our server, was friendly, competent and very kind. There was an older couple at a nearby table. It was obvious that the husband (assumed) had cognitive issues. His wife(assumed) took charge and ordered for them both. Kelsey, seemed to know them, perhaps regulars, and could not be kinder and in serving them. She even cleaned up a small food mess that the gentleman caused. She was never dismissive nor patronizing. She was simply kind. Brava!!!!“

“Food is always great. We were seated this last time and I think they forgot about us, took almost 20 minutes for someone to take our order. Everytime I've gone the last few years the place seems dead.

Parking: A few spots in front, was used for valet back in the day but unsure if they are still doing that. If there is no parking you need to park in the main lot for the shopping center (near Boudin) and walk over.

Kid-friendliness: Kids menu includes fish and chips, mac and cheese, etc.“

“Came here randomly to get a to go sandwich while on a wildfire detail from out of state and the patrons and the staff and owner were extremely kind. Got the recommended Cuban sandwich and it's one of the Top 5 sandwiches I've ever had.
Had a band playing and my only regret about the whole experience is that I couldn't stay and enjoy the incredible atmosphere. Made me feel at home from Tennessee. Class establishment. 5 🌟s.“

“I have been a regular here for going on a year. It is a great place to come unwind after a long day, and the atmosphere is fairly calm and relaxed compared to similar places in the area. The staff are all friendly and remember your orders the next time they see you as well. Comedy night is great, and the live music on the weekend is always nice but both bring in a sizeable crowd so be warned!“

“We came in an hour or so after they opened on a Friday and there was only one other table occupied.

The food was amazing!!! We ordered the spicy cajun edemame, crispy pork, and tom yum seafood fried rice. All three dishes were wonderfully prepared! Great job to the chefs!

The only thing lacking was the service, but the staff was young, but I would venture to guess that they will learn and the service will get better in time.

We will definitely be returning soon and recommend giving them a try!“

“I had the pleasure of working with Danielle and the Karl Strauss Anaheim team for a Happy Hour for my company back in November.

We're based out of Michigan, but you wouldn't have known there was a 3-hour time difference, because Danielle's communications were quick and helpful.

As for the event itself, we had close to 100 people that circled through, and the Manager that night (Jacob) and all the servers assigned to our section (Blondie, Colin, Sky, Evenor, Bobby, Ally, and Michael) were AMAZING! Everyone went above and beyond with everything.

We got rave reviews from everyone who attended, and many selfies were taken with Angels Stadium in the background.

If our company is ever back in the Anaheim area, we'll definitely be back!“
