    After multiple tries, I will no longer be ordering from here. Every time there is something wrong with my order but this time was the worst. Ordered a pancake combo with hash browns, sausage and bacon. The hash browns were BURNT! The bacon was hard and the sausage was cold. My over hard eggs were runny. My mom's combo was the same except she had ham instead of sausage. The slice of ham she got was such a joke. It was smaller than my sausage link. My husband got a machaca burrito and there was no meat in it. On to of that everything was cold! My husband arrived to pick up the order when he got the notification that it was ready and when he asked for it they said it wasn't ready yet. They finally gave him the order after it sat on the counter for over 10 minutes. Horrible food. Horrible experience. Not worth the almost $70 we paid.

    Great place and delicious food. Karina and Nery were great servers. Very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. We had a very short time frame in which to eat and we let them know and we were served quickly and with a friendly attitude. We would come back here again. Thank you for the great service!

    Happened to find this place while we were looking for places to eat. Absolutely no regrets! Everyone was so friendly and our food was delicious!!! We will definitely be back again!!! Shout out to our server Rafael too.

    Breakfast

    As soon as we walked in, we were seated right away. Instead of the usual chips and salsa, they brought out two warm Conchitas--a small but thoughtful touch, and absolutely delicious. I ordered the Menudo, and it was so good. It had the exact pieces I love--the chewier cuts (not sure which part of the animal they are, but they're my favorite). My husband ordered taquitos along with a breakfast combo, and everything was delicious. He cleaned his plate completely. The atmosphere is very family-oriented--warm, welcoming, and comfortable. It honestly feels like a Latino version of Denny's, in the best way. On top of the excellent management, we had about four different waiters check on us to make sure everything was good. That level of attentiveness is such a great detail and something you don't find in most restaurants these days. Rafael was our waiter - very quick, efficient and friendly.

    Friendly service as we walked in. Vanessa B our server was friendly and helpful. She came to check on us multiple times despite the restaurant was busy. The food was delicious and flavorful, highly recommend the menudo!! Will definitely back to taste other dishes on the menu!!

    Servicio bueno, el lugar se ve limpio y antojablê, era nuestra primera vez en estê lugar. las porcionês de comida son pequeñas y en mi opinión no valen lo que cuestan las crepas estaba ricas pero mi Hashbrowns tenian un sabor raro y feo que no me gusto nada y el bacon sabia a ranciô y caducado pedi otra orden (de tocino) y sabia igual, parecia de aire porque se deshacian como si fueran un polvoron :( los chilaquilês meh :/ debut y despedida de ese lugar lo unicô rico fuerón las conchitas :)

    Chicken Enchilada Plate with Horchata.
    Daniel D.

    Parking is great, the interior is spacious, and the food is decent. I had the chicken enchilada plate along with the horchata agua fresca on an empty stomach and it was enough to fill me up. There was nothing too special about it, but it got the job done. I might order something else next time, though. We thought they stopped serving Conchas, so I asked the server about it. It turns out they weren't able to serve them to us because it got really busy. The server kindly gave them to us at the end. The booths surrounding us were a bit untidy and had a scraps of food on the ground. Otherwise an all right place.

It was the best thing I tried. But the the best part of the whole experience was Alma, our server! We didn't even notice we came in hour before closing, and when we did we apologized and she was so kind and told us not to worry and to enjoy our food. She was the last server there and was juggling multiple tables but still managed to be extremely attentive to us. She is so kind and has a great personality. Thank you for everything, Alma! Also big shout out to the kitchen for not closing before the restaurant! They let us add our French toast about 20 mins before closing, which is really unheard of in the restaurant culture of "last calls" 30 minutes before. I loved this place!

The room was getting progressively hotter so we asked if the AC was on and a server casually told us the AC was "on the fritz." We had spent months planning this event and this was incredibly disappointing. Even before the guests arrived, I noticed the cupcakes and macarons I had brought in melting from the extreme heat. All the guests were noticeably and understandably uncomfortable and sweating the entire 3 hours. No one came to check on us or to apologize for the inconvenience. This was not the event we had envisioned for the guest of honor who was 8 months pregnant. It was not only uncomfortable but also posed a health risk.The restaurant showed a lack of concern, care and accountability over the entire situation. I understand that the weather and the AC breaking were out of anyone's control but the handling of the situation and the aftermath was poor. We tried to give the restaurant opportunities to make this right but they failed at every opportunity. Because of the lack of communication, poor decision making and incompetency, I cannot recommend this restaurant for any events. The servers were nice and the food was all right but there are many other acceptable options for food in the area.

The high ceilings, rustic exposed brick, and massive bar setup make for an electric atmosphere when it's packed out with a rowdy crowd. Even when they're slammed for game days, the kitchen holds its own. The duck fat fries are pretty much mandatory for the table--super crispy, well-seasoned, and easy to pick at while drinking. Their empanadas, lumpia, and burgers are also solid, easy crowd-pleasers to pair with a huge craft beer list or one of their whiskey cocktails. Because the energy is so high during watch parties, service can understandably take a little longer than a normal quiet lunch, but the staff handles the game-day rush really well and keeps the drinks flowing.

    Santa Ana Brunch Club,…read more Took the wife here on our off Friday. We arrived near noon time and the restaurant still was full, we had to wait hmm 10 or 15 minutes, which is not bad at all, shoot beats 45+ minutes I can easily see them pull on the early morning and weekends. There is a parking lot just past the restaurant, its a little sketchy and can be tight depending what cars are already there. There is a decent amount of seating, but the first thing I noticed when we first walked in was the two Yama glass cold brew towers, I already knew they were going to have banging Kyoto style coffee, that was already a win for me lol. The staff here were super nice and also very great at recommending a dish by what's popular but also asking what mood you were in. So the wife and I went with the two popular dishes. City Plate - Wife went with this dish French scrambled eggs, on the menu it does say Pork Belly, but unfortunately they ran out so she went with bacon. Hokkaido milk bread French toast, seasonal jam and berries. First off most places that know how to cook bacon, just nice and crispy, you know whomever is cooking, is cooking. Perfectly crisp bacon and good quality and taste, made me forget about the pork belly! The Hokkaido milk bread French toast, topped with like a blueberry jam, was beyond delicious. Honestly one of the best french toast both my wife and myself ever had. I do agree the portions are a little small, but if this was the dish I ordered, sorry wife, all mine!! jk love u! Bubbies Fried Chicken & Sourdough Pancake's: This is the dish I went with, Fried chicken thighs, mini sourdough pancakes, 2 over medium eggs finished with a hot honey butter drizzle. The sourdough pancakes, were good but nothing to crazy about them, if there is an option to sub the pancakes for the French toast, I would have easily done that! Egg was cooked perfectly to how I ordered them, but the best part of this dish. That fried chicken thighs, easily the best fried chicken I have had as of then and today so far. The crunchy skin was the right amount, the chicken was moist just from the look of it, but once bitten into, oh man it was explosions of flavors. Oh man put this on top of like a jalapeno waffle get the perfect bite with chicken, egg, the waffle and some syrup....gasm! As mentioned above the serving portion isnt too big, least for a guy size, guess it worked out since I finished whatever my wife could on her plate. Coffee: It make sense why their portions are too big, gotta make sure you save room for that coffee. Sadly the day we went, they ran out of Horchata, so the wife and I both got the vanilla rum kyoto iced latte. As expected it was delicious, the vanilla and rum complemented each other perfectly, not too sweet and not too smoky/bitter, I knew the cold brew would be clean and smooth, a perfect way to end brunch with this amazing cup of cold brew. I may have finished my cup before even leaving the parking lot. In conclusion, Santa Ana Brunch Club its going to be hard to come back here and try other things when I can just have a plate of favorites with that french toast, bacon and fried chicken and was it all down with Kyoto coffee. I can see why people are willing to wait long times for the food here. Again the food is amazing along with the workers! Feast Well Fellow Yelpers! Kaizokuō Ni Ore Wa Naru!

The steak was beautifully seasoned, and the beef tallow fries were perfectly crispy. They even pre-sliced the steak which was perfect for sharing. ​Kids' French Toast: My son got the French toast with jam and berries on the side. He devoured every single bite and thoroughly enjoyed it. ​House Jam: The jam was delicious! Our waiter mentioned he loves eating it with yogurt. They actually sell jars to go (apricot and cherry), if they had blueberry, I would've bought one on the spot! ​The Drinks: The slow-drip coffee is amazing. We ordered the cold brew and the horchata, and both were fantastic. ​5 stars for sure, we'll definitely be back!
