50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Santa Ana

“I won't let one weird employee knock my rating down of this location. Usually the customer service is pretty good, but on this day 11/29/25 @ 1030pm The younger guy working the cash register had zero customer service skills. He seemed annoyed at the very first interaction and rushed me through my order. Maybe that's just his personality because he seemed to be like that with everyone. Gotta work on that for real“

“I dont understand why this place doesnt have a line around the building... I've been coming here for a while now. I used to live in Santa Ana, then Paramount, and now Laguna Niguel. Every time I've made the drive because the drinks are AMAZING. For the most part I'm a Thai tea kinda person and the Thai Tea Blossom is ALWAYS on pint and add the Sealt Creme..... its heaven in a cup. The staff has always been good and the art does blow me away, some of these people should be doing comics, manga or cartoons. This place should be on everyone's list if you're into delicious drinks, think I'm kidding?? Again-- I drive from Laguan Niguel to get a drink from here!!!“

“This was our first time here. My husband had The Meditator which is a meatball sub. The meatballs and sauce were delicious. I had the Peace Maker which is a turkey pesto sub. It was delicious. The subs come on their crunch rolls which makes the sandwich. Everything is made to order so be patient. I am looking forward to going back to try something different.“

“I am not vegan or vegetarian, but went here with someone that is. I found the food to be tasty. That can be tough to accomplish, since I'm used to eating non vegan food. The animal fries were very good and the chicken strips had very good flavor, without the sauce overpowering the food.“

“They clearly take tremendous pleasure in their store and merchandise. The Italian grinder and the pastrami on a baguette that we had were both excellent. We'll definitely start stopping here frequently on our way to the beach to pick up sandwiches.“

“Loosies Pizza isn't obvious because there's no sign on the building itself but if you look for 300. 103 or a sign out in the central walkway, you'll find it quickly enough.
The place is certainly worth a visit for its well baked thin crust pizza. Topping are generous and a good quality. My favorite is the white pizza which is elegant and tasty Although I preferred using a few ample shakes of the garlic salt on the counter to amp up flavor. Four solitary tables sit outside and I must admit that it's not exactly a welcoming café vibe with almost no shade but it's better than nothing or than sitting inside the dark, some might call it creepy, interior. But it's that kind of place edgy/hip. The bathroom Continues to reflect the alternative dark vibe and overall, the place is hip“

“we are from Alaska so we maybe fresh fish snobs... but this was absolutely delish, fast, and priced great. highly recommend so glad we stumbled upon ot!“

“Tasty Afghani food is featured in this family restaurant run by Mustafa. We relished the Kabuli Polo, Mantu, and Karahi Chicken with freshly baked flat bread. The lightly refreshing Mango lassi helped us digest the food. Overall, it was a wonderful experience for my birthday!“

“This is the best tacos in OC! Love the quesobirria tacos! My kids love it here 😋😋😋 please check it out you will not be disappointed ☺️“

“❤️❤️❤️❤️ Best Bread and Doughnuts in Santa Ana“

“Service was amazing!!!! Shout out to Alexis the best sever in the WORLD!! Checked up on the table a couple of time to get us what ever we needed. 10/10 service!!!!! AND FREE REFILL!!!!! Our chef Nick was OUT OF THIS WORLD with all his jokes and games, he even GAVE US EXTRA GARLIC BUTTER. In conclusion this was a 10/10 experience 10/10 service and I haven’t talked about the food yet!!!!!! A must if you are in the area.“

“Attention all Final Fantasy 14 fans: This place serves the Xibruq Pibil from the Dawntrails story quests! Its real name is Cochinita Pibil and it's great. You can experience what Koana & Wuk Lamat had here! Taco Tuesdays are $2.50/taco.

Parking: You pay by phone or app“

“Yo. This pizza is it.

Let's be clear, we're still eating chain-style fast food pizza, but there is no chain pizza in SoCal better than this place. I'd even claim this place is on the top 5 list of all pizza places in Orange County. It really is that good.

I went with a large half cheese, half pepperoni pizza. The basics. It was undeniably perfect. You can tell right away that the ingredients and dough are fresh and that the pizza is taken seriously. The taste took me right back to sleep overs and birthday parties in the 90's.

The only downside to this place is that it's small and busy, but even still, the employees all seem happy and handle your order quickly.

Even the price is great if you ask for the right deal. A tad more expensive than the other chains, but so worth it.

What a fantastic franchise. It's so refreshing to see that a pizza chain can still be done without sacrificing taste and quality. Well done, Marco's.“

“the best place for breakfast 😋“

“Fantastic service, lovely place to do work or hangout. I love that they have a baristas choice of the day, it’s a great way for me to try new drinks :] also their support for local groups and movements is really important ans appreciated!“

“Karaoke Thursday!!! Everyone there is so friendly and accommodating. I celebrated my birthday there and had the best time! Oh and we played trivia too and my team won!“

“Freshly brewed teas in a minimalistic setting. Drinks were rich, and not too sweet, which I greatly enjoyed. Great grab & go place!“

“Moc Kitchen is amazing!

The restaurant has a modern and relaxing vibe. The quality of the food here is amazing. My parents and I got the Moc Bowl (Essentially a Pho Dac Biet). It was absolutely amazing, filled with noodles, meat, and delicious broth. The employees were friendly and attentive to our requests.

They have specials that comes with a bowl of pho and an appetizer, or a BOGO for their Moc Pho. All greatly priced and proportioned.

Highly recommend for Pho Lovers. Absolutely will be back!“

“If you are taking a tour of terribly paved industrial sectors you may run across this basic brewery which I've found weirdly chill all 3 times I've been, but beer is good and the folks seem cool. I understand it's been around for a while and still with the beer. C'est la Vie.“

“I absolutely love Kiazen Shabu! The food here is consistently amazing, with fresh ingredients and rich, flavorful broths that make every bite memorable. The owner and the entire team are incredibly friendly, always making you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. I especially appreciate how the owner often offers free alcohol to customers, adding that extra touch of hospitality. I first visited when they first opened a few years ago, and at that time, it wasn’t too busy. But with the incredible food, excellent service, and inviting atmosphere, it’s no surprise that Kiazen Shabu has become so popular. Now, it's always packed, so be prepared to wait, especially on weekends and during dinner hours – but trust me, it's worth it! I highly recommend trying most of their dishes; you won’t be disappointed. Kiazen Shabu is a must-visit for anyone who loves delicious food and top-notch service!“

“Had the No.2, knowing I wasn't going to like butter in my coffee and DAMN, this one was delicious.

Service was weird. I sat down and was greeted. The guy went over to the register to help two groups of ppl that arrived after me. I asked if I needed to walk to the register and the guy said no and helped a new person with a wine selection. A girl from around the corner came to help a few moments later.“

“We were in the area, and I was craving for coffee. I found this place with all the great reviews, so I decided to come by. It is located inside a plaza with lots of parking spaces. Parking was easy. They have both outdoor and in door seatings. Menu seems smaller, but still has enough options. I ordered matcha lavender latter and New Orleans cold brew. Both of our drinks were amazing! The cold brew is my favorite cold brew I have ever tried. I am unsure if it has oak milk in it, but it has a slight sweetness in it, which made it good! The matcha was strong, but not bitter, and it has a strong lavender scent, which I love. The only complaint I have is the size of the drinks were too small, and I was unable to enjoy it more. Too bad I left, or else I might go back and get another one. Cashier was friendly, patient, and kind that he explained different drinks to us. Very modern minimalist decorations, and they have magazine available to read in the store. I will come by again if I am in the area.“

“This is one the best spots in Santa Ana to grab specialty coffee. Great staff, great coffee, and great ambiance!“

“riquisimos y bien servidos Los mariscos, casi no le ponen verduras, es lo mejor..“

“This place offers a consistent churro, time over time. It's not the greatest churro I ever had, but it is pretty good. THere's always a line but it moves fast. They run out of the dulce de leche topping early in the evening every time though. I went there as late as 10:30 PM to get my churro and I live over 30 minutes away from there.“

“Great place for drinks bartender was awesome and super nice. Great beer selection and great music too“

“Food portion and quality was good. New cashier didn't explain that there was an upcharge for choosing panini bread for my sandwich. Posted menu price didn't match what they charged me, there was a 35 cent difference. Service was fast and friendly. Manager apologized for poorly trained cashier and pricing issue. I will come back again.“

“We loved the decorations, it really felt like you were south of the border. Great food and service and all the staff was really friendly.“

“Food is bomb highly recommend it.“

“I have been here twice and the consistency and quality of food is top notch. The horchata is the best I have ever had! First time I got the al pastor burrito and the second time the carnitas burrito. Meat was perfectly cooked. Burrito is huge and shareable. My wife got rolled tacos that were crispy and had plenty of meat in them.“

“Sanduche de Lomito with spicy chimichurri…..delicious!!!! Always hits the spot!! Freshly made, always cooked to perfection.I forgot to add, the location looks a little sketchy. Windows are boarded up, but, don’t be afraid. Walk inside and you’ll see a small market filled with Colombian, Peruvian, and Argentinian imported food products and the small restaurant to the side.“

“Good Friends - Good Food - Live Music - I’m in!!!“

“I have found a legitimate broker who has helped me in so many ways in the aspect of forex & cryptocurrency. At first, I was really skeptical that it won't work but I still kept the faith going until I saw a recommendation about Mrs Craig Vanessa who changed my financial status from grass to grace. Once again I'm really grateful for your help and support towards me and my family in this tough time of the year.

“I have been both food and batter from FreshMe since years and there is no better option than them. Their batter is amazing and the Idlis are so soft and fluffy that I have never had luck getting the same quality from any other batter. It checks all the three boxes - fresh, tasty and healthy“

Would definitely recommend this spot.“

“the best place to eat to sing to dance, wonderful customer service delicious food, it really doesn't matter the time you come if you come morning they have delicious breakfast very quiet if you like it for lunch the same for dinner 7 Days of the week karaoke“

“I visited Adam's Tacos tonight (formerly Tacos Manuel) to pick up tacos for the family and had a great experience. Adam was very friendly and gave me some recommendations to bring home. We had the carne asada, carnitas, al pastor, cabeza, and lengua tacos. Everything had great flavor - our favorite was the carne asada. We loved the grilled onions! Not sure how they're seasoned, but they were good! Also, the prices were very reasonable. My experience with food trucks has been that they are generally overpriced. Not the case at Adam's Tacos. We fed our family of 5 under $40 which is not very common these days. If you're looking for good tacos in the area, I'd recommend you give this place a shot.“

“great place for dining....“

“Food is bomb highly recommend it.“

“Loved drinking beer out of a boot! Brats and fries were awesome.“

“Una de las mejores comidas 👍🏻👍🏻“

“as a xi’an local, I always wanna give a try from six alleys, because rarely there are authentic ones i can find outside of xi’an tbh. I went in and ordered 三合一 which I had back in xi’an outside of my school for years. the noodles itself and the mix are passed my taste test! I would definitely recommend this restaurant if you ever wanna try xi’an cuisine.“
