After a fun day at Knott's Berry Farm, my wife and I decided to get dinner before hitting the road…read more The criteria were good eats, a varied beer selection, a decent atmosphere, and hopefully some novelty. Rock and Brews exceeded each category and came in clutch with some bonuses! First, and most importantly, the food was absolutely delicious! I had tacos, which were discounted for Taco Tuesday and allowed for a mix-and-match of chicken, beef, or pork. My wife had the Mediterranean salad, which she thoroughly enjoyed. We also shared a pretzel that was mega yummy. Second, beer! Lots of great choices, and if you prefer a mixed spirit, well, you're in luck, because they have plenty of those too. Third, vibes! Vibes like Cal Tjader came back to life. The place is decked out like your coolest friend won the lottery and created the perfect spot for all of his Rock & Roll lovin' homies to hang and chill. It is hard to pull off this level of focus without being a complete visual disaster or downright tawdry. Luckily for them, the designer understood the assignment. Well done, designer. You deserve a raise. Now, obviously, I'm a fan. One visit. That's all it took. But even after all of that goodness, there is one thing I must share, because it made a good experience a great one, and that thing is not even a thing; it was Matthew! Brother, thank you for being so kind and attentive. You are very talented, and without question, the quality of our experience is directly linked to your professionalism. I get the impression that no matter where you go, or what you do, the Force is always strong with you. Let's give Matt a raise too! And make him manager when you open the San Diego location.

Grew up and live in Buena Park and I've only been here 3 times. That's gotta change. The burgers…read morewere pretty. They were tasty, too, but I can always appreciate a good looking burger that doesn't fall over after they place it on the table. I had the super spicy one and it kicked my bum. I can't hang like the old days. Very fun eating experience though, and I was able to finish every single scoville. Waiter was helpful with customizing (bread swap). French fries were fine. Will be back, even if it's just to get a bottle of their hot sauce . Only real gripe is that this place looks and feels like a sports bar/restaurant, it has over a dozen TVs... But the same thing was on ALL the TVs ! I understand the music theme is central appeal, but at least have different (variety) music videos on if you're gonna have 30 TVs in your restaurant.

They had issues getting large LED screen to watch game. Previous game was shown in air conditioned hall. This time in the hot sun with hardly any shade. I think it would have been way better back in the hall. They had a small bar area showing game but the crowd did not fit in there only like 15% if the crowd. It was great to see the Portuguese community come together and root on the home team. Glad they did show the games there...may next time.

I'm going to be honest, I stopped by on my way to the fmr mkt to use their facilities-very clean & well maintained, you'd have to be buzzed in to enter. I like that it has paper towels coz I prefer it over the hand driers. It might be better for the environment but not for my health (unless I know that they actually disinfect those regularly, otherwise it harbors bacteria). The lady at the front was nice. The quiet library is open & airy, perfect for studying or simply perusing books. It has a large children's section with newer computers. It's conducive to learning & broadening our minds. I was probably one of the few kids in junior high (did I just age myself?) & high school who regularly visited the library to borrow books. I was a regularly at the Ivar (Hollywood Branch) Public Library & know that when the Mac desk top first came out-Cerritos Library had a roomful of them (Cerritos tax dollars at work, courtesy of the Cerritos Auto Square & the Cerritos mall). In this area (City Hall), there's an Olympic sized pool by the Senior Center (I think there are a total of 3, one of which has water slides ($25 entrance fee, unless it has changed) Dang, I should move to La Mirada! Another place to consider -ing out!!

If anyone that works here is reading this, any way you can start enforcing people treating the…read morespace like an actual library and you know-- be quiet?? It is so loud at this branch at times and impossible to utilize as a place to effectively study, work or even read. Never once have I seen anyone be deterred from normal level conversations, turning sound off of computer games, answering phone calls, etc.

There are a few positives--the location is convenient, the remodeled appliances are nice, and the…read moremaintenance team has been consistently kind and helpful. Unfortunately, that's where the positives end. Management is not located on-site, which creates a major disconnect in communication. Information is often inconsistent, and community policies are not enforced. There is little to no oversight when it comes to amenities--people regularly use the gym and jacuzzi after hours, which leads to frequent noise disturbances for nearby units. On top of that, some members of the leasing team come across as defensive when concerns are raised instead of working toward a solution. It makes it difficult to feel heard as a resident. Overall, the lack of management presence and enforcement significantly impacts the quality of living here. I would not choose to live at another property managed by this company again.

I would recommend to come early since parking fills up due to paid parking in Old Town Orange down the street. We love all songs that all the kids end up loving to memorize and dancing to! After some songs and stories there is free play for around 30 more minutes. Other than story time, the Children's part of the library is a fun place for kids to play puzzles, crawl under an orange, and find some books to take home.

Starts with half a bagel with pickled jalapeño cream cheese topped with Iberia ham, lots of that salty goodness. The flan French toast was a lovely sweet treat made with 6100 Japanese milk bread served with a caramel syrup and some berries. Who doesn't love French toast? Then it was on to the torta. The flavors were spot on. The bread was perfect. So soft but not too soft that it falls apart. The contrast with the crispy chicken cutlet and the oozy fried egg on top the verde chilaquiles all go together magically. All of this on a quaint patio relaxing enjoying some chill music. Shout out to the service! As always the friendliest. Looking forward to many more brunches!

The SFS city rep helps you with every question you have. They also offer a lounge for junior high and high school students to hangout. There's all kinds of activities for them to relax and hang out with friends after school. They always have a staff on floor to monitor them. That's pretty cool. Wished I had that available when I was a kid. They offer a lot of classes for resident and non-resident. I can't express how much I love this city :)

Quoting my friend here: "I'm going to be 80 years old and still look back on this."…read more Completely blown away by the classy, fancy atmosphere, the outstanding customer service, the quality of everything that went into our meal (even the water is the best tasting that I've had in the parks), the ingredients, and of course, the food! For all the years that I've gone to Disney with friends and been a passholder, I've never had the opportunity to dine here until now and I can see why. Limited dining hours and limited seating in the second floor of Carthay Circle. My friend's pass was expiring and I wanted to make our last trip worth it, so imagine my surprise when I saw openings? I booked it instantly. You check in outside and you're led to a waiting lobby area with this impressively huge vase of fresh flowers and pieces of memorabilia from the Snow White premiere at the actual Carthay Circle Theatre. You can then either ascend the stairs or take the elevator to the second floor. In the past when I've dined at the lounge and had to use the restrooms upstairs, I'd always sneak a glance into the restaurant and to be able to finally experience is nothing short of magical. My friend and I were in awe about how grand and ritzy everything looked. If it weren't the photographs of Walt or other guests in Mickey ears, I would have never known that I was at a theme park. The dining room is set in a circular fashion with some private rooms to the side. In the middle is an even grander, bigger case of fresh flowers that also acts as a wine ice bucket with all the wines at the center (pulled from the wine coolers at the side of the walls). Looking at the ceiling with the 4 chandeliers, there's artwork of the nature scenes of Snow White. Breathtaking. Our server was Adam and Alex came by to clear our table when plates started stacking up. Both are extremely personable, friendly, and truly elevated our dining experience. We learned so much about all of the care and effort that goes into crafting the culinary masterpieces here, the fact that the menu constantly rotates seasonally with the locally sourced and sustainable ingredients, and that the lounge and the restaurant have completely different kitchens. Insane. Immediately, we felt a bit out of our element seeing how affluent and posh everything was. There were TWO different forks, a special butter knife, everything on the menu came with a recommend wine pairing suggestion, and much more. For our dinner, we got the: 1) Crispy Pork Belly Glazed with Gochujang Butter: -This was served on top of a "Japanese pancake", or okonomiyaki and had sriracha aioli and gochujang butter that was the perfect level of sweet and spicy. -Pork belly was tender, very flavorful and had a slight crisp on the edges. Never had straight stick thin beansprouts that tasted that fresh (I usually hate beansprouts) and the pickled radish wasn't too sour either. This was cut into shareable 1/4 and a great way to start our meal. 2) White Cheddar Parker House Rolls: -6 piece pull away bread. Delicately moist and tender bread membrane inside with the light cheddar taste on the outside. -The Olive Oil Butter was super light and melted quickly on the bread. It had a subtly lemon flavor to it but the table favorite was the Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto. Easily the most "dense" and concentrated sun dried tomatoes I've ever had. Deliciously herby and salty with a slight sweet taste. -My friend: I gotta figure out how to become a millionaire to keep eating bread like this. 3) Grilled American Wagyu Picanha: -We got this medium as recommended and it comes with 2 skewers with 2 good sized pieces of wagyu picanha on them. -Meat is cooked to utter perfection. Super tender and moist, amazing texture and chew, slightly charred edges. The crispy richness of the fat pieces were amazing. -You'd never think to make this pairing, but it went amazingly well with the peach bits and the peach chimichurri. Deliciously sweet peach flavor with the umami and saltiness of the wagyu, and the burst of flavor from the grilled corn. Perfection. 4) Phyllo Dough Peach Custard: -Since peaches are in season and we enjoyed the entree so much, we had to get this. -Perfect phyllo dough exterior with the delicate flakiness, the custard at the bottom was subtle, and it all went perfectly with the peach sorbet. Both of us agreed it was the best sorbet we ever had. Very sweet, strong and rich peach flavor and the sorbet was actually gooey. You can tell it's freshly made in house and none of that icy stuff. The sweetness of the gooey peach sorbet, the flakiness of the dough, chew of the custard and sharp burst of tart sweetness from the blackberries made for an amazing dessert. Between 2 people, this was only $100~ which is insane for this level of fine dining. Definitely will try to come again!

We started with the parker house rolls -- yum! And the asparagus with crème fraiche. The asparagus was much better than expected, super fresh and nice light appetizer to pair with the Parker house rolls. For the main I went with the sea bass with crab fried rice. This was okay. I don't know that Carthay circle does a great crab fried rice but it was decent. My husband got the pork chop and enjoyed it with his sidecar. To drink I got a double pear martini and a classic martini. Whew, these really pack a punch! Highly recommend the double pear especially, so yummy and refreshing. Overall, the ambiance here was excellent, gave very classic Hollywood vibes and the service was excellent. Would recommend!
