This place has potential to be a 5 star but until there get a cook/management that puts an emphasis on customer satisfaction, they won't. They have a unique menu with some great items on it. We ordered French Onion Soup which tasted good but the the bread they used as a topper was the crush and had to be cut with a knife in order to get a piece on your spoon. I ordered the Pastrami sandwich, which came on a petite sized roll, and was a la carte??? Once I was past the middle of the sandwich, there was only pickle and very little meat. I ordered a side salad, which I explicitly told the waitress to please toss with the request dressing only to bring it out in a super small bowl and a small side of the dressing I ordered. When I requested to send it back to the cook to toss, her solution was to bring out a bigger bowl and have me toss it myself??? My wife ordered a Lobster roll which was good, not great, and a side of French Fries. The fries came out warm and dry, like they have been sitting under heat lamp since the last customer order some hours ago. That could be because it was slow, but none the less, we paid extra for the side of fries and expect them to be hot. Waitress was nice and checked on us throughout the meal but offered no concessions for my dissatisfaction, which again, that falls on management. Hopefully management will take note, the place has potential.

Love this place for happy hour.. love that they always have live music and that's up for a great evening. Food is good too but few options only. Drinks are always great.

Oh my you have to try The Painkiller! So good. Works like a charm too. Nice flavors. Great with something a bit spicy to eat!

Great vibe, and my "go to" for drinks and appys with my girlfriend. However, you will want to try their dinner choices...cocktails are a must.

Dude that's the lamest whiskey bar I've every been to. Atmosphere is like a library. Seriously you're in the fun business, why so sad? ?

The food is good here but the service is absolute horrible. When we sat down it took a while before our waitress Shaela even came to ask us for drinks. She was so rude when we asked questions about the menu. Total snarky attitude to everyone at our table. We had kids with us and when we all got served our food my daughters food never arrived and when we asked her about her meal she said my daughter never ordered it when we all heard her place the order. The entire experience wasn't as enjoyable because of her. She didn't even bring out plates or silverware another person had to bring it to us because they noticed she didn't get them for us. Forgot out refills for our kids and didn't really care to be of any help at all.

Ordered to go: Sisig, Mac & Cheese, Kimchi fried rice, Budino, and Cookie. Expensive with EXTREMELY small portions. This is one of those places where the picture of the food they advertise looks NOTHING like the food you get. Sisig was good. Mac and Cheese was the blandest dish ever. Kimchi fried rice was mediocre. Cookie was dry. Didn't even get the Budino I ordered. Would have given 2 stars for mediocre food with high price tag. But poor quality control drops them to 1 star. I want to support places like this. But seriously, with the price you make people pay and the crap portions. Pathetic. You're serving asian food. Asian food should come in generous portions. Not this fake ass nonsense. If you want filipino food, go to Cerritos. Want Korean food, go to Garden Grove. Stay away from this place. One and done with this place.

What a wonderful experience ! Had to come back after coming in I came in December when the lake had its Christmas tree lightening. I can't and have stopped talking about the bacon covered stuffed dates and how the food was hot and fresh in everything that was ordered. Yesterday I came in with someone who hasn't experienced and lives near the one in yorba linda. With the experience, atmosphere and delicious food he's making sure to attend his local. Miles our server was the absolute best!!! I mean just down right genuine! He was able to catch on with our humor and laugh. When you have employees like this it just makes experience being there and the people your with so much better. We also asked for his opinion on selections for our meal. Instead of saying "I don't know" he was able to pick something from each section in what he enjoys but also what other customers truly enjoy. Having this knowledge and able to share just puts a little more confidence in what you are choosing. I split the pastrami dip sandwich with my friend and we both found it down right delicious. the pickles on that amazing. The dipping sauce was amazing too and I couldn't decide to dip or not. My husband got the chipotle sandwich which was amazing especially the sauce. With that I will definitely be back-hopefully to get pictures next time- but also will be checking for miles to be our guy if he's working!

Great ambiance, food and service. I would definitely go back to The Blind Pig and enjoy the great food and drinks!

Best place around! We are here maybe once or twice a week & absolutely love the food, drink & happy hour! Staff and service is always amazing! Great options to choose from and perfect date night or brunch spot! Already going back this week!

Service was not good. The server lost our order and we had to reorder. The entree came out right after the salad was served. The server asked if I wanted more ice tea and I said "yes". 10 minute later, after no tea arrived, she asked again if I wanted more ice tea. Perhaps it was just a bad night for her. Food quality was OK, average.
