Aum Beer House is an Asian restaurant and bar in Garden Grove. It's located on the historic Main Street with parking in both the front and back. There are TVs throughout the restaurant playing a variety of sports games. AHI TUNA TARTARE ($15.75) - the dish only came with three chips for the entire dish which was crazy to us. Also, the seaweed salad was an interesting addition. We were not fans of this. 2/5 FRENCH FRIES ($8.40) - they have different seasonings and we chose the Cajun one. We liked that they were skinny fries and they were addicting. I especially liked the spicy aioli dipping sauce. 4.5/5 GARLIC NOODLES SHRIMP ($23.10) - we thought it could've been saltier and used more garlic. The shrimp add-on was $12.60 which was not really worth for 5 pieces of shrimp. They were big pieces of shrimp though although not the easiest to peel. 2.5/5 ANGUS BEEF RIBEYE ($50) - this was cooked well and had good flavor. It came with mushrooms, asparagus, and a dipping sauce that we didn't care for. We would've liked some flaky sea salt on top to add more savoriness. 4/5 For drinks, the aum fashioned ($16) was a standard old fashioned and the heart shaker ($13) was pretty good. They have happy hour 3-7pm Monday to Thursday but unfortunately not on Fridays or the weekend. It's a little alarming that my favorite dish was the fries. This looks like a fun place in the evening so I would come back for a night out. read more

Five stars for their anniversary specials! My friend and I were looking for a place to hang out with a drink after dinner on a random Tuesday night. Aum was open and in a super cute part of town. Decor was a modern Asian vibe and staff was friendly. We sat at the bar and enjoyed several glasses of the $5 wine. The pours were generous too. I would come back next time I'm in town if they made the specials an ongoing thing. read more

Came here twice and both times I came with good company, good food, and drinks. By far the "sober up" noods best IMO. Asian style noods after drinking hits the spot and I loved it. Ceviche was yummy Very cute interior and cozy as well. Felt a little fancy ngl lol. Got to experience a green tea shot and their espresso martini. Servers are friendly, pleasant and fun. read more

Located right on Main Street across from Costco. I stopped by on a Thursday night and the place was fairly empty, with a DJ playing EDM (electronic dance music). The name and the vibe didn't seem to match. They have some happy hour drinks available after 7 PM, so I grabbed a glass of sangria for $5 and a plate of garlic fries for $10.50. It's definitely a plus that they serve food late, but the flavors were just okay overall. It was a decent stop, but it didn't really leave me feeling the need for a revisit. read more

Went here for the homie's bday. It's a modern-rustic looking pub serving up some nice Asian fusion dishes. Most of my friends got the Ribeyes, which they said they really enjoyed. I got the Steak Tataki and Tuna Tartare, which were delicious. Not gon lie though everything here is pretty heavily priced so prepare to spend big bucks. Servers were cool, chatted us up a bit as they were delivering our beer towers. Everything came out in a timely manner. I'd say this would be a great place to come back just for the drinks and small shareables read more

My friend was visiting from Seattle and was looking up places to take her since I'm not very familiar with the OC night life/scenery. So glad I took her here, it's a cute bar right in the middle of Main Street! They've got plenty of street parking and the parking lot in the back. Plays good music, good vibes. My friend spilled her freshly made espresso martini down my leg (yes the entire drink was full). The bartender made her a new one right away, which I very much appreciated. They make a great espresso martini. Would definitely return for more drinks and a good time. read more

Stopped by Aum Beer House for some drinks after dinner with friends. We loved the music, shoutout to Dj MAZD! Loved the vibe of Aum because it was as loud and fun as being at the club but you can order food and have your own space. We didn't order any food because we were still full but ordered a lot of cocktails. Our favorite cocktails were the Sunny Days and Mezcal Mafioso! We didn't have any issues with service. The team was always checking in on us and we didn't have to wait long for anything. Shoutout to Bryan!! We'll be back again and will have to try out their food next time! read more

This place is a hole in the wall! I wish people would know about it more. You get live music + amazing and endless options for drinks. They have matcha martini like no other places, I keep coming back for more. The food is great as well, I loved their squid and bone marrow. Tin is my favorite bartender, I always go in and ask for him! Very welcoming environment, every time I bring a new friend in they end up loving it! It's now our regular hangout spot so glad I found it! read more

Went in on a Tuesday, an hour just after opening and we were seated quickly and warmly. Plenty of seating and clean. Service was great! I would have loved to try their cocktails but ended up just ordering a matcha cream coffee. It was a Vietnamese coffee base with matcha cream on top. It wasn't too bad, 4/5! My other party members had the strawberry cream coffee and she really liked it. My other member had two cocktails, the Mezcal Matioso and the Spicy Daisy. He enjoyed both thoroughly. For food, we got the chips and salsa (3/5), garlic noodles with steak (3.5/5) and honey sriracha wings (3.5/5). If I was tipsy/drunk, these foods would have definitely hit but overall they were okay. The garlic noodles were good though! The flavor and texture were nice, but the steak was too peppery for my tasting and it was okay. When I gave some garlic noodles to my other party member to share, there was a piece of hair in it....we don't like making a big deal when it comes to these things, and we didn't notify the staff. It was whatever, but just a reminder to always check your food before you eat anywhere lol. Wings were just wings, can't go wrong with them. The chips and salsa were a bit stale. Regardless, I think I would go back here to just try their cocktails. read more

Aum is better known for being a lively Vietnamese bar/lounge to hang out with and drink with friends at night BUT I'm here to talk about their food. It's always so empty when I show up for weekend lunch and it's a shame because their food is amazing. They serve traditional Vietnamese foods, but with an elevated and modern twist. And they have other delicious Asian fusion dishes on the menu. My go to is the shrimp and crab udon (banh canh cua) that is served pot pie style with a golden and buttery crust sealing the noodle soup inside. It makes for such a delicious experience to crack open the crust to reveal the steaming soup inside. The breakfast skillet (banh mi chao) is probably one of the more popular menu items and rightfully so. The savory flavor from the meat drippings and pate all blend so nicely with the egg and tomatoes. The mini baguettes the dish comes with are so cute and both crusty and fluffy; perfect for soaking up all of the sauce. I've also tried and enjoyed snow crab meat salad with crispy rice. It's a large appetizer for $16! The salmon in red curry sauce is a delicious Thai influenced dish if you aren't craving Vietnamese food. The menu is quite vast and has a lot of food and drink options to please any party. I can't wait to come back here for the good food, drinks, or fun atmosphere at night to hang with friends. read more

Came here before a concert event at the garden grove amphitheater. The pictures and cocktails looks good on the picture. I am giving this place 2.5 stars since the food was good tasting. Food is not 3 star because the Hainan dish was misleading. Service alone is less than 1 star. Service was very inattentive. They were putting the plates and utensils for all the empty tables and they didn't even bother giving us plates and utensils. We ended up grabbing the set next to us. They didn't get my order right and it was t even a busy night. Most the servers were standing around. We ordered the Philly cheese steak eggrolls, birria queso tacos, hainan rice and shredded chicken, garlic pasta with mushroom, and clams and chorizo and loaded fries. The appetizers were good. The hainan chicken was Misrepresentation because it's goi ga salad with white rice nothing hainan chicken about it. The clams were basic and the noodles were lackluster. Loaded fries I had better elsewhere. I ordered the carajillo cocktail and the served me espresso martini... not sure I will be returning here. read more

Wow I'm surprised they're able to replicate the famous garlic shrimps that I always crave in Hawaii. This will definitely be one of my go to spots. Love the flavors and ambience here. Service can be spotty at times but overall no real complaints. The food is definitely not to be overlooked and I highly recommend you to check this place out for some alcohol and some good food with great vibes. They also have live music entertainment. read more

Aum Beer House - Hawaiian Garlic Shrimp - Asian Fusion Near Me - Garden Grove, California

This was a nice surprise! Went here to celebrate a colleague's promotion. I must say, enjoyed it more than I expected. It's a twist between a pub/restaurant. Nicely decorated on the inside. Paloma was quite tasty here. Think we ordered 6-7 of those, and during the hours of 1 pm-3 pm. It's one of those kinds of fun days. We ordered family-style and passed the plates around. Had a chance to sample various dishes which is always a fun thing to do. It had a Vietnamese fusion style that worked well. The Shrimp Garlic Noodle was good. The shrimp wrap went quickly! Think everyone liked that dish. Good texture and flavor. The rice wrap balanced it out well. Heard nighttime is another vibe happening here. If you're looking to get drinks and hang out, this seems like the spot for the nightlife. Overall, a great spot to grab drinks and bites. Looking forward to the next visit. read more

First of all, I just want to say that service here is not that great, but the food made up for it. Upon entering, no one is there to greet you, you basically have to walk in yourself and try to get the attention of a staff member. If you're going to the bar that's cool, but looking for a place to sit down for your party is a different story. We got there and was rushed by the staff stating that if we didn't place our order within x amount of minutes the menu was going to change to dinner and whatever we were looking at wouldn't have been available. But yet we couldn't find our waiter and had to place an order with someone else. I don't know if I would consider this a fusion place, though I know it's Asian/Mexican cuisine inspired. The menu is online via QR code. The menu was annoying as they had certain menus for appetizers/lunch/dinner/drinks and I felt it could be confusing. We ended up getting drinks and an entree each and fries to share. The Sunny Days drinks was one of my favorites. It was refreshing, crisp and exactly what I needed to whine down on a weekend afternoon. We got a chicken with fried rice plate, and garlic noodles with steak. The chicken was roasted to perfection. The skin was crispy, the inside flavorful and moist. The fried rice was a combination of sweet and savory, definitely my favorite meal. The garlic noodle and steak was only decent to me. As I felt the steak was dry, and garlic noodles didn't have much garlic flavor and overly oily. We never got our truffle fries and when we mentioned, they stated that theres a chance they wouldn't even make it for us since it's now past the lunch menu time. We had to let them know that we indeed ordered during lunch time and they said they'll see what they can do. Instead of asking us if we wanted them still, they brought it out to us after we were already done with our meals and drinks. It was a smart way, got us ordering another round of drinks just to have with our fries. I wanted the butterfly pea coffee, but they ran out. I asked for the purple yam coffee...they also ran out. I just stuck with the hazelnut coffee. Unfortunately I don't think it was "Vietnamese" enough for me as it tasted mostly like hazelnut milk. The fries weren't very truffly as well. Overall, beautifully decorated, nice chill vibes, good food, great drinks, poor service. read more

Great place to have some drinks with friends and chill! The decor is cute and the food is great. I recommend the chicken cartilage, raw oysters, and the truffle fries as appetizers and the specialty margaritas. Everything was fresh and the restaurant itself was clean. They have music events on certain nights too. Had a great time here and would be back! read more

Aum Beer House - Oysters, chicken cartilage, truffle fries, margaritas - Asian Fusion Near Me - Garden Grove, California

My friend introduced me to this place. Had no idea this existed within Garden Grove area. As we walked in, I hear some really good music bumping. Sounded like a club, but turned out more of an Asian Fusion restaurant with a DJ. Very small restaurant, but intriguing atmosphere to dine in. My friends and I were directed to outdoor seatings with amazing fire pit to warm us up. Our server was attentive to our group providing great customer service. Food was great, but I was more focused on the music. I love to dance and this was the spot to get my groove on. Would I go back? Absolutely! read more

We ordered a lot of stuff on the menu: tomahawk steak, corn, loaded fries, oysters, bone marrow, garlic noodles, tuna tartar, mussels, fried rice and some drinks. The drinks were all so good and unique, definitely a great place to grab drinks with friends. The food was good as well, my favorite was the fried rice and steak read more

We came here to grab some food before attending a concert. We ordered an old-fashioned and a matcha cucumber drink (non-alcoholic). Both were good but the old-fashioned was surprisingly delish! It was only $13! What the hell... Haven't had a good old-fashioned for just $13 anywhere! We ordered the calamari, shishito peppers, parmesan wings, and fried rice. All were good! This is a Viet fusion restaurant. I love the open atmosphere and the artwork on the wall that was done by some tattoo artist. I love all the parasols/hats they used for decorations. They also had all these firepits outside. I have to go back at nighttime so we can have drinks by the firepit. The waiter was friendly but service was a little slow even though it wasn't crowded. We will definitely be back... It was a good spot for a few drinks and food before the concert. read more

Aum Beer House is a chill bar/restaurant in downtown Garden Grove. It has an asian fusion menu with a huge variety of different options for drinks and food. I love that they have lots of really great cocktails. My favorite drinks here include the Gummy Bear and First Kiss. Both are sweet and delicious. But if you don't want a cocktail they have a full wine and beer menu. They even have different types of sake and soju. And if you prefer no alcohol then they even have boba drinks. Yes, they have it all. The food menu is also great. Lots of appetizers and full entrees. Oh and they have happy hour specials Monday-Thursday from 4pm-7pm. The pricing is pretty reasonable and affordable. The staff is really nice. We did have to wait a little to get our items but everything was good. The inside has a full bar and lots of places to sit and eat. It's great for small intimate parties or large groups. On the weekends they have a DJ. I love the music they play here. It's a great vibe and would definitely be back. read more

Went in after a concert at the amphitheater on a Saturday and it was crowded. For our group of 7, we were seated at the outdoor patio with the fire pits. Server greeted us, took our order of appetizers to start, and said she'll return to turn on the firepit. Appetizers came: philly cheesesteak eggrolls (5 half egg roll sized pieces), chips and salsa (which was sweet), birria tacos (2 per order), and ahi tuna. The portions were too tiny to split. Which was fine because they didn't even give us plates/utensils/napkins. Food was mediocre and unfortunately the cocktails were worse and sent back. They never turned on the firepit but were apologetic for the cocktails. We wanted to enjoy the end of the night here but went elsewhere. Dj was good tho. read more

I wanted to give this place 5 stars, but the wait for the food to come was just too long and it just wasn't that busy. That being said, it was more than worth the wait! We will definitely come back but we might give ourselves more time. We had the crispy rice with spicy tuna, beef tataki, hamachi carpaccio and the fried rice. All were home runs for us. The noise level was good...but there were only about 5 tables occupied. I could see it being loud when it's full. While the cook seemed to be a bit slow, the wait staff were fantastic. Overall a great little find and worth a visit! read more

Came here with a big party for a friend's birthday reservation. We were seated right away around 7 pm on a Friday night and the crowd didn't start to pack in until later in the night. Our table shared a few things: Garlic Noodles, Angus Beef Ribeye, Buffalo Hot Wings, and a Fresh Soju Tower. The food was as expected, nothing crazy. The most disappointing part was giving the restaurant a call a day ahead asking if we can bring in our own alcohol for a price, ultimately confirming with two people that it would be $50 extra. We come in the next day for the servers to say it's not a thing that they do. If we knew this, we would've gone somewhere else :/ Wish the communication with staff/manager was more clear because I'm not sure how we got confirmation on the phone from two people just to be denied. One of the servers tried to accommodate after, which we appreciate but it was an inconvenience for both parties. Still, this place is a good choice if you want a spot to drink and eat with your friends. read more

First time when I came here because I was craving oysters and searching for a place in OC late night. I was glad I found this spot!

If I could give this place zero stars, I would. We ordered the fries and it looked like they just dumped cold cheese on top--no effort at all. I got the tuna tartare, and it was so chunky. Tuna tartare is supposed to be finely chopped or mashed, not big pieces. It was not good. The service was just as bad. The first guy (Hispanic, not sure of his name) was nice, but overwhelmed. I asked him for a drink and never got it. Later, a short, skinny Asian girl started helping us--again, don't know her name, but she looked like she hated being there. I had to ask her if we could place our order, and when I did, she only took mine and walked away. I had to call her back to take my boyfriend's order and she just said "oh yeah, I forgot." That was weird. Nobody ever checked on us. After we were done eating, they completely forgot about us. We had to get up and go ask to pay. Honestly, we could've walked out and no one would've noticed. Overall, terrible experience. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. read more

Aum Beer House - Asian Fusion Near Me - Garden Grove, California

This place looks like it could be cool but it's only a veneer of what could be a quality bar. The vibes are all over the place, menu is all over the place and extremely pricey for the actual subpar food that actually comes out. The "steak" is an undercooked thin slab of thawed meat that they charge $12.60 Extra as an add-on to bland RICE (unless you like a TON of onions)! !!Beware of this place. It has so much potential but whoever is in charge of this place decided to cheap out on quality and over charge. This place is a scam at its core. What my date and I had (fried rice with "steak" & sober-up noodles) was not worth over $100. read more

Aum Beer? More like: aummmmm... where's my server? I went there with my girlfriends to celebrate her engagement. We made a late reservation since many of us got out late from work. Super cute place. Once I got there all of my friends already ordered food. I looked around to see if I could find a server and when a lady came to deliver us our food, we asked her if we can put in some drink orders and she said no, we had to put it in with "our" server. So, I went to the bar to order my friend a drink instead of waiting around. The bartender said our server wouldn't like that, but since I was paying with cash, he let me! Score! I didn't see our server until at least an hour after I got there. At that time my girls already finished most of their food. We ordered one more round of shots before we closed our tab. Holy crap, they nickel and dime you there. I can't say that I'll be back. I value good service too much. I had a good time because I was with my friends, but honey, if you see people buying drinks, you gotta keep us happy. I would say she lost some money throughout the night since we ordered a lot of drinks with the bartender. It's because we rarely saw her come by. Oh well, we can't wait forever. read more

Came here for Sunday brunch. Ambiance is great. The decor is so pretty and the space is very clean and nice! It was pretty quiet when we went.

This place is so spacious with many TVs for today's Sunday football. I'm surprised the bar didn't have more people. The parkings are easy to find on the street too. Sadly, many items on the menu have been discontinued. I do not see wonton soup, soft shell crabs, or any chasiu, pork belly dishes. Those would have been better than current options. Regardless, the menu is outstanding with both American and Asian snacks. I would come back to watch football games here with friends. read more
