6 Best Southern Restaurants near Orange

“Everyone has their favorite smokehouse. I haven't been floored by any yet, but this is as close as I have come. They can get busy so prepare to wait on the weekends. But it's worth it. Clean, comfortable (especially compared to the Brea location) and the food is consistently outstanding. Not cheap but never small portions. With the money every time!“

“Ordered the two specials they have on that day. The first dish which is biscuits with gravy was amazing. You can choose your choice of protein (bacon, sausage, or chorizo) and we went with sausage. First of all, the biscuits were flaky, crumbly, and moist; topped with creamy gravy that had cubed bacon in it. I’m hoping that they will add their biscuits to their permanent menu.The second special dish is similar to one of their regular menu, the only diff is the protein that comes with it. This special comes with chorizo; meanwhile, the regular southern eggs benedict comes with grilled corned beef. The combination of chorizo, brioche, crispy potato cakes, poached eggs, and chipotle hollandaise was fabulous.“

“You pay for the atmosphere and service. It is fun. The food you could get anywhere else for less. The food isn’t bad at all but it is nothing so great that you’ll want go back for the food. But for family fun alwaysParking: First 2 hours of parking in structure is free after that you have to pay“

“I have a meatloaf issue...the issue is that I love meatloaf. I saw that they have a meatloaf sandwich. I went there and they did have a meatloaf sandwich. It was sublime! Handmade, juicy, bursting with flavor meatloaf In between perfectly toasted bread was the experience. They have some savory house made BBQ sauce and large portions. Good stuff.“

“Honestly I have mixed feelings about this venue. It's decent enough, but I've been arrested before for their "no moshing" policy back in the day... but I've also seen people dive from balconies during IWABO... so it's confusing.Anywho, decent enough atmosphere... always a chill crowd... security can be a little uptight, but I'm old now, so they know better. Great to bring kids to their first big show.Mostly standing room, unless you're ADA or VIP, just so parents and the older crowd knows... ? “

“So I went for a breakfast before enjoying some bday festivities, wanted to eat before having some drinks. It appears they had an event so no breakfast was to be served that day. I did tell the bartender that I was only there for the breakfast. I was upset but then the bartender checked with the cook and he made me the breakfast I wanted which was the country fried steak. It was pretty damn delicious, some sort of sausage in the gravy plus the potatoes and veggies were good. Sure was worth the price for that meal. Will be back again for some breakfast, much appreciated ???“
