“Bartender Jonny was very welcoming and knowledgeable. Affordable drinks. Plenty of TVs. 3 pool tables. 1 juke box. Plenty of interesting characters. Give it a shot.“

“Atmosphere is that of a fun. Karaoke sometimes. Great Dive bar! The food is great too, they have a good special $11 for a beer and a smash burger. I highly recommend it. Nothing on draft but that’s okay because Amanda is hot (with enough drinks). The smash burgers are bomb and the service is sometimes friendly and sometimes mean and that’s the perfect ratio!“

“no food just regular little snacks. If you wanna eat something eat something before you go, but Roberta is an absolute Saint. She may seem kind of direct to you, but she’s very kind and a very wonderful person and a great bar Owner. It’s a really nice cool chill atmosphere to be out. There is one of my favorite places to be at without stupid people being around. Roberta makes it happen.“

“Shout out to Baran Mediterranean restaurant. We had a superbowl/ 50th birthday party yesterday and everything was literally perfect. Food/staff/ decorations/ cake, everything was perfect. There's nothing I would change or do differently. We had a party of 80 and everyone has been texting today saying how good the food was. Go try them out, you won't regret it. Owners are pretty amazing too, super friendly and down to earth. Thank you Baran!!!!❤️“

“Came here Sunday, with my partner as she wanted to grab a seafood boil. Coming inside seems pretty chill moderate noise where you can hear everything around but still can be able to converse with the people sitting at the table with you. Anyhow we got the combo for two with snow crabs and crawfish and add headless shrimp to the mix as well boiled eggs.
We got the appetizer which were chicharrón , gumbo and chicken tenders as well 6pc raw oysters.

The chicharrón came out first which to me 7/10 had a lot of Chili seasoning bit sour but crunchy

Second that came was the gumbo 9/10 flavorful as well was good with the chicharrón

Then came the seafood boil that came in the bags but what was forgotten was the boiled eggs we got them after a couple bites into the seafood. 9.5/10 definitely flavorful and the medium spice is not to spicy to have ur nose runny and unbearable to eat

Then came the raw oysters wish they did it steam tho would have made it great honestly. But it was still decently good.

The drinks I got an Arnold Palmer but that had to be the most awfullest drink I’ve ever had. Idk if it’s the machine or what it is but it was just disgusting
The orange Fanta my gf had taste carbonated.

Overall it was a good experience beside the drinks, but they also provide you these tokens to play at the claw machine and if u win a stuff you have it added to ur plate which was what I was told by my gf.

Service, it was pretty decent not above and beyond but still pretty great and tolerable.“

“Great food. Great service. Friendly staff. Relaxed atmosphere. Place was clean.“

“We came during Valentine’s Day and was pleasantly surprised with the experience - from delicious and quite good portion of food to attentiveness in service. Patricio was our server and he was very attentive, checking in on us right after the food were delivered.“

“Great place to have some beers, and play some pool, or watch a game.“

“We came here 2 days back to back and was definitely not disappointed the first day we just wanted to try the place out and ordered the pork belly sliders and a brisket Mac n cheese. Both were amazing but… the next morning we came to get brunch and ordered the chili verde breakfast burrito along with the tri tip breakfast bowl and I must say that had to be the best breakfast burrito I have ever had! Plus the sauce with the salsa they give you for that bowl was delicious!!! I’m just upset that the brunch is not year around“

“Bartenders are super cool. Karaoke is the best. I just watch but its enjoyable and the D.J. is the coolest. The vibe reflects everything beautiful about Los Angeles, cool people from all backgrounds enjoying themselves and being chill. <3“

“Absolutely loved macho nachos, Korean style wings, hot dogs with bacon excellent“

“I have been eating at Mandarin Taste since I was 4 years old. Since when they used to have to polaroid pictures taped to the wall where you waited for your seat. Since the shopping center was a thriving place for business.
I have been gone from the area for years now, but I came home over the summer and after a shopping trip at Brea Mall, I craved some Szechwan beef and nostalgia. Upon walking in, we noticed some small changes. The polaroid pictures are gone (mines was up there!) but everything else was exactly the same. Including the staff. They have of course aged as we all have, but I remember them in their younger years. We ordered all our old favorites. The pu-pu platter, chow mein, fried rice, and Szechwan beef. All of it tasted exactly the way it did the last time we had it. The consistency of this place is insane and much appreciated. The service was good too. I don't have any issues with Mandarin Taste and we always had great food and a good time here over so many years. Graduations, births, birthdays, and job promotions. All celebrated here. It made me sad to see the shopping center as desolate as it was. In the 80's and 90's, it was a busy place and again, many memories being there. I'm glad to see that Mandarin Taste has been able to remain and among so much change, they have been able to stay the same. Thanks for the memories. Please support this restaurant. You won't be disappointed.“

“I got the Mongolian beef, extra spicy. It was tasty, but 85% rice, and was actually a little sweet not spicy. They merely threw more whole red chili's but nobody actually eats whole Chinese red chili's.

My friend got the swordfish, and opted out of the rice and upgraded to double string beans, didn't look like they doubled it.She said there's no hint of flavor on the beans, like they were simply boiled. She did like the caper sauce on the fish but had to ask for more.

Both dishes were lunch sized portions with dinner pricing, but there's live music (Friday 7pm), so just realize that it's less of a restaurant than a fine whiskey bar with food.“

“My husband made reservations on January 24, 2026.
We were drawn in by social media and had high expectations.
Those expectations where met! We reviewed their website prior and where exited to get all dressed up for the night!
When we arrived were kindly greeted by Angie whom guided us to the main area. The design of the place is very classy and warm with music that adds to the vibe. For diner we had the Cacio e Pepe (Salmon/Pasta) and the Tailor's Cut (Steak/Mash potatoes/veggies). For drinks we had The Seamstress and a Whiskey Mix). To top it off we had a slice chocolate cake, my fave!
We both really enjoyed our selections everything was delicious! Our server was very kind; we were also greeted by the owner.
We will definitely be returning and have been recommending to our family and friends.“

“My girlfriend and i came here and were so pleasantly surprised! Logan sat us and served us and gave great suggestions from the menu. We didn't get any of the other's names but everybody was so attentive and kind it was just refreshing. We loved the food and vibe so much we can't wait to go back. I had read a few reviews about the food being bland, let me tell you that i season the hell out of my food! Bland is the last thing i would call what we had..... We ordered everything that Logan recommended and loved it all. The wild
carrots were to die for! Heading back soon!“

“Bill and I loved that bar...it's like home.“

“Great food, service, drinks and ambiance.“

“Great food! I always get a mushroom taco there - they have great! mushrooms!!“

“Old classic American steakhouse. Bartenders are outstanding and pour a good drink not your standard 1 oz. . The Owners Jeff and Steve have greatly improved the place the last several years. I've seen their business increase. The food is very good and competitively priced. Some comments I read earlier that it was overly priced they must go to Denny's a lot. The weekends get packed. Sometimes 1-2 hour wait for dinner. They have entertainment on Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday. They also have great Happy Hour specials M-F. I'm just another happy customer that has been coming in for years.“

“I love this place. Lively Atmosphere.“

“Best food I've had around the area. workers super friendly. Highly recommend 💖“

“Came hungry, came thirsty, and came in need of a good spot to let my creativity flow. This is it. This place has it all. The ambiance gets you set to sit, relax, and unwind. The drinks are on point, delicious and well served. The service and welcoming environment is just the beginning. Food is gourmet, lighting is perfect, service is amazing, and the rest; well, come and find out for yourself. Great experience. I'll definitely be a returning visitor.“

“Very great service, Alfredo the manager is one of a kind. Congratulations to the whole team!!!! 😃😃😃“

“Loved this hand roll spot! Super fresh ingredients, warm rice, and crispy seaweed—everything hit the mark. The staff were friendly, the vibe was chill, and the rolls came out fast. Great place to grab a few bites and hang out. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Stopping by to sing some karaoke & see some old friends“

“delicious korean pub food! with natural wine by the glass. soju cocktails. highly recommend the pork belly.

don’t let the interior fool you. parking can be tough with the kbbq spot next door but there’s residential parking nearby.“

“How can pass on a chance to do e here…history“

“Awesome place! I really loved the atmosphere and the DJ was on point with the music... Yes they had an DJ when we were there! Don't know if this a weekend thing but we were lucky. Food was really good and the service was excellent! Will be coming back. The only thing I personally recommend is for the mango blended margaritas to actually look and taste like mango. I was expecting a yellow looking one but it was pale and it tasted like a regular margarita. Other than that everything was good.“

“The steak and lobster and drinks“

“Hi there,
I was watching some old shows from the 90s from the discovery channel. There were commercials I'm hoping we're from your restaurant. If this is the same place, same family I would like to let you know they were funny witty and hold up over time. Thank you“

“I recently had the opportunity to visit The Hideout bar, and I must say, it was quite an experience. The bar had a unique vibe and atmosphere that immediately caught my attention.

Upon entering, I couldn't help but notice the Halloween decorations that adorned the bar. It added a festive touch and created a fun and lively ambiance. The combination of the decorations and the overall atmosphere made me feel excited and ready to enjoy the evening.

One aspect that stood out was the presence of beautiful women serving drinks in bikinis. While this may be a unique feature of The Hideout, it's important to note that the attractiveness of the staff should not be the sole focus when evaluating a bar. However, it did add an element of visual appeal and contributed to the overall atmosphere.

The bar itself had various entertainment options, including darts and pool tables. These activities provided a great way to engage with friends and enjoy some friendly competition. The availability of these games added to the overall enjoyment of the evening.

What I appreciated most about The Hideout was the good feeling vibe that permeated the entire establishment. The staff was friendly and attentive, ensuring that everyone felt welcome and had a great time. The combination of the Halloween decorations, entertainment options, and friendly staff created an inviting and enjoyable atmosphere.

While it's important to acknowledge the unique aspects of a bar, such as the presence of beautiful women in bikinis, it's equally important to focus on the overall experience and atmosphere. The Hideout bar provided a fun and entertaining evening, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a lively and enjoyable night out.“

“This is hands down the best local spot in the area! The drinks are excellent, the staff is incredibly friendly, and every dish we tried was packed with flavor.
Don't miss their happy hour specials – $7 house margaritas from 11 AM to 3 PM alone make it worth the visit.
It's rare to find a place that truly checks all the boxes. The staff had perfect timing, checking in on us just when we needed something without being intrusive. We'll absolutely be back!“

“Finney’s Crafthouse in Brea is an absolute favorite! The atmosphere is lively yet relaxed, making it a perfect spot to hang out with friends or enjoy a casual night out.
The food is outstanding—everything from the burgers to the appetizers is packed with flavor and made with high-quality ingredients. Their craft beer selection is impressive, offering something for everyone to enjoy.
The service is top-notch, with friendly and attentive staff who make sure you have a great experience from start to finish. Whether you're there for food, drinks, or both, Finney’s Crafthouse never disappoints. Highly recommended!“
