Old Brea Chop House - Filet with asparagus and garlic. - Steakhouses Near Me - Brea, California

I was very pleasantly surprised at this place. Very good food but just watch out for market prices and "specials" might want to ask the actual price. My husband got the special chilean Seabass it was a great cut and just melted in your mouth but we were shocked when the bill came. Before we even ate, my husband, and I both went to the restroom and on our return, our napkins were folded so pretty such a nice touch and very personal. This was the first time I've ever been somewhere that they did that I was pleasantly surprised. They are really known for the butter cake and it didn't disappoint...we also got a recommendation for the key lime pie and I am excited to try that next time. Will definitely be back but maybe share a dish next time read more

Old Brea Chop House - Ordered steaks, bunch of sides. Brussels sprouts and potatoes were my favorites. - Steakhouses Near Me - Brea, California

Quick bite at the bar Swung by after a catching a show a Improv next door. Beat the rush and grabbed and seat at the bar. Staff were super friendly. Nice decor and ambiance, great for a date night. We tried the following: Peruvian Scallop Crudo French Onion Soup Skirt Steak Old fashion Each dish was fantastic! Peruvian scallops sat in a lemon grass flavored sauce, perfect blend of savory and tangy to go with the sweet flavors of scallop. The French onion soup was solid. Skirt steak was excellent. Nailed the char, salt and flavors. Garlic confit was a nice touch. Drinks were strong. I especially loved the fresh honey comb in old fashion. Can't wait to come back for a full meal! read more

We have been attempting to make reservations at the last moment for quite some time. We had good fortune yesterday, Tuesday, as we were driving to the Brea Mall and noticed the restaurant again. We called and they were able to accommodate us just one hour later. I can confirm this is authentic cuisine. Our party of four each tried different plates. The pork chop was excellent and my filet mignon was amazing. Our server was outstanding. Prices are à la carte, so it depends on your preferences, but we found the prices to be right under market value for the quality provided. This is a must-try establishment, though it is somewhat loud. read more

This place is phenomenal! The meat is unbelievable good! High price but I did not regret it! I loved the ambiance, the attentive service and even the level of the music was perfect to have conversations. Highly recommend to have a reservation, we did not have one and I was quite surprised we were quickly seated at the bar. I thought sitting at the bar we were gonna run the risk of being forgotten but surprisingly it was the opposite, they definitely have good customer service. Well Done! read more

10/10. We celebrated my husband's birthday here tonight, and from the moment we walked in until we left, everything was exceptional. The tomahawk steak was cooked to a perfect medium-rare with an incredible dry rub, and every single side we ordered was just as impressive. Honestly, one of the best steakhouse meals we've had. A huge thank you to our server, Andrea. He was incredibly knowledgeable, took the time to explain the menu, made great recommendations, and even shared that a new micro location is opening in Brea, much closer to our home. His service made an already great meal even better. Olga was also wonderful and such a warm addition to the team. Both Andrea and Olga were so kind and welcoming to our son, which meant a lot to us. This was our first visit, but it definitely won't be our last. We can't wait to come back! read more

From the moment we sat down at Old Brea Chop House, the service was incredible -- attentive, polished, and genuinely warm without ever feeling overbearing. Every course was perfectly timed, and we truly felt taken care of all evening. We started with the Caesar salad, crisp and fresh with the perfect balance of dressing and parmesan. Paired with the 2021 ISOSCELES Reserve from JUSTIN Vineyards & Winery, the meal immediately felt elevated -- the wine was bold, smooth, and beautifully layered. The 36oz bone-in prime tomahawk was the star of the night -- flawlessly seared on the outside and tender and juicy in every bite. The broccolini had a perfect char, and the potato au gratin was creamy, rich, and packed with flavor -- easily some of the best sides we've had. We finished with their warm, decadent butter cake (absolutely melt-in-your-mouth) and an espresso martini that is officially my new number one. The ambience truly ties everything together -- warm, inviting, and perfect for a special night out. With rich wood tones, soft lighting, and an intimate yet lively energy, it strikes the perfect balance between upscale and comfortable. An unforgettable dining experience from start to finish. read more

Came back tonight for dinner. The restaurant is beautifully decorated for the holidays. We ordered my favorite appetizer here ... the bone marrow! Omg soooo delicious! For my entree ... This time I ordered the filet mignon ... super good! We also ordered the New York Strip ... way flavorful and tender. We ordered the potatoes au gratin and the mushrooms for sides. Both to die for! For drinks ... we had the bomb berry and Mai tai. Both great! Bomb berry was sweet. Mai tai was strong! Great service too. We were seated right away. I had taken a star off last time because we had to wait even with reservations but this time they sat us right away. Our server and his assistant were attentive. I forgot his name but wanted to say his assistant Tiffany was great! She's super attentive and cleaned our table every time a new course was being brought out. She's very attentive to details! I love it! This is now one of my favorite restaurants to eat at in Brea! read more

Sexy date night spot. Drinks are well made, great wine selection. Service is always timely and servers regularly check in without being overbearing. The restaurant has dark mood lighting, which makes it feel intimate and sophisticated. We love the oysters and order them every time we visit.

We've come here for the last 2 years for our wedding anniversary the Lady and I. They even took our pic and printed it out for us. I figured 3rd time's a charm why not?! Had reservations I showed up 10min. after("grace period") my reservation , I had called earlier if that was ok and host said it was FINE. Took them 10min. to sit us down which wasn't a problem for us. We were just excited to celebrate our wedding anniversary the lady and me. The issue I had was when they led us to our table to sit down, they told us we only had 1 hour to enjoy our dinner because there was another party that was going to take large portion of the area where they sat us. I asked if that would've been the same case if we had showed up on time they said no, but because we showed up 10min after , they sat us at a table/section where we only had one hour to enjoy our dinner. I'm not going to rush to have a steak dinner and enjoy some drinks with the wife on our special day and get booted within the hour. Never been to steakhouse that has had a 1hr limit on a table. Safe to say we walked out , leaving very disappointed to the point where manager noticed and came to get us to stay but by that time the 1hr limit comment rubbed us the wrong way and we ended at The Ranch Restaurant, which I recommend. Got there at 7pm and left at 10pm closing time. Ended up being a good night after all. read more

Went there for food at bar. We ordered waited for sometime never got it and left. Oysters never arrived. Friendly bar staff.

Visited this spot for the first time and the food was absolutely fantastic. We ordered the tomahawk steak, which was cooked perfectly, along with the brocolini, gnocchi, and brussels sprouts. Everything on the table was delicious, and the Bomb Berry was excellent. Unfortunately, the atmosphere was completely ruined by another patron. The restaurant allowed a customer in with a dog that was clearly not a service animal. The owner appeared intoxicated and most likely a regular who thought he owned the place, even letting the dog eat straight off the table. It was incredibly entitled and showed zero regard for other diners. I get enough of this on flights; I shouldn't have to deal with it while dining. This isn't Lazy Dog. Five stars for the kitchen, but management seriously needs to enforce basic hygiene and pet policies for the sake of their other guests. read more

Old Brea Chophouse has been one of my favorite restaurants for many years. It was only fitting that we returned again to celebrate our anniversary. It is located in the heart of downtown Brea on the northeast corner of Brea Blvd and Birch Street. There is a paid valet parking lot directly behind the restaurant, as well as a free multi-level parking garage across the street. A reservation is highly recommended. Their website is very detailed and has pictures of almost every item on the menu. The inside of the restaurant is a good mix of modern and classy with subdued lighting. There is a nice big bar in the middle of the space with booths and tables throughout. Since it was our anniversary, we wanted to sit next to each other in a booth and I noted this on the reservation. When we arrived, the host immediately informed us that they were happy to accommodate my request. I don't know if they have a formal dress code, but this is a nice restaurant. Get out of your daily casual wear, dress up a little bit, and make it a nice evening. After being quickly seated, our water and their delicious bread basket arrived. The pretzel bread is to die for, and there were also two soft and fluffy rolls, and a big cheese crisp. We started out with a few cocktails and I ordered the Old Habits. It was a hot day out, and this was the perfect light and refreshing cocktail. It reminded me a lot of a mojito even though it contains gin and sherry instead of rum. She ordered the Bomb Berry which was a nice reddish pink color and it had a great nose. It has a sugar rim, was well balanced, and had a good fruit flavor that was just right. We like to get caviar once in a while, and we know it is always available here. The last few times we had it here, the server verbally told us what they currently had in house. This time, they had a printed menu which was a big improvement. Having the names, prices, and detailed descriptions of each caviar was very helpful in making a selection. We had never heard of Regiis Ova caviar before. Our server informed us that OBC is the only restaurant in California besides The French Laundry and one other Napa restaurant that carry it which made our choice easy. We decided to have the hybrid variety since it sounded a little more exotic. The presentation is fit for a king. It arrives in a big gold bowl filled with crushed ice and all of the accoutrements on top. The caviar tin itself is in its own smaller gold bowl on a bed of crushed ice and sits atop the bigger bowls ice mountain. The slices of bread are very soft and light, and have a very slight toastiness to them. The eggs of this hybrid variety are definitely largest we have had. They melt in your mouth and have a nice creamy, slightly nutty taste. The flavor can be described with one word, heavenly. You can take the empty tin home and it will be a nice reminder of this great anniversary dinner. Next up were the entrees... I usually go for a steak of some sort, but I felt like trying something different and went with the 16oz New Zealand rack of lamb. When it arrived, our server asked if I would like the chef to cut it and I agreed which made it a little easier to eat. It was cooked a perfect medium rare, was very tender, and the light seasoning was amazing. All of their meat entrees come with a roasted garlic bulb, but the lamb was so good, I didn't use it. This was probably the best rack of lamb I have ever had. The restaurant has a great wine list and I had a glass of Belle Glos Clark & Telephone pinot noir which paired great with the lamb. She ordered an item off the specials menu, a 24oz Caribbean lobster tail. It was a huge tail and our server again offered to have the chef deshell it and she agreed. There was a ton of meat, and of course I offered to help eat it all. The Caribbean lobster has a little sweeter flavor than other varieties and it was delicious. We usually order too many sides and end up taking most of them home, so this time we just ordered the ricotta gnocchi which we always get. These are easily the best gnocchi we have had anywhere. They are large, airy, and pillowy. The sauce is great and also has mushrooms in it. We were stuffed and really had no room for dessert , but they generously brought us a small complementary dessert for our anniversary. I think it was crème fraiche in a dark chocolate cup. It was topped with small chocolate malt balls with some fresh berries on the side. It was the perfect small dessert to top off an excellent meal. The plate also had a chocolate printed "happy anniversary" on it which was a much appreciated touch. Our servers Jackie and Olga were outstanding the entire evening and took excellent care of us. Two different managers also stopped by our table at different times to make sure everything was great. For an excellent meal and great service, look no further than Old Brea Chophouse! read more

5-stars across the board! Ambiance, service, and food. They all hits were home runs! No reservation so had to sit at the bar, and we had a blast. Great location, easy walk from parking garage across the street. Decor-classic steakhouse decor with lots of tables, large bar, and great lighting. Service-outstanding service from bartenders and waiters alike, they all did great!! Food-best Sea Bass I've had all year!!! It was a very thick piece of fish and it was flavored and cooked to perfection. When I tell you, I savored every bite, I mean exactly that. It was simply wonderful and I still dream of this fish. The sauce that accompanied the fish was also very nice!! The sides were also on the same level of perfection. Brussel sprouts and potatoes made great companions to the fish dish. Well done guys, can't wait to come back. read more

Old Brea Chop House - Sea bass-wonderful dish. - Steakhouses Near Me - Brea, California

Well a 5 star review is not enough for this establishment or the owner of this business. Let's start with the food, it is amazing. Filet and lobster were perfectly cooked. Salad was crisp and fresh, But also full of texture lots of wonderful small veggies in it that didn't over flavor any other part of the salad, but instead like a well written ballet it just worked. I've never mmmm mmmm over a salad, but I absolutely did with this one. Cauliflower steak! Wow! (That says a lot from a carnivore) Asparagus perfectly cooked with a lovely butter rue. Thick spears. Pesto pasta was delicious. Homemade Bread with a dipping sauce, also a crisp sheet, and a couple of buns. Now mine was brought to me as I had just spent three days in a hospital by my most amazing sister. The packaging of the food was perfect and everything was nice and warm. I tip my hat to Tony the owner who has gone out of his way to help a man he does not know. Thank you sir. Your food was top notch. And most deserving of this grand review. You've earned a customer and a friend. read more

I just wanted to venture out and drink around my work area because I have a god dam drinking problem. Jokes aside, I heard they make really good whiskey sours and old fashioned here so I decided to stop by after work. I do like how everything was so clean and the bar vibes were pretty immaculate. I bartend as well on the weekends for just some extra money on the side and let me tell you this place is definitely elite. It's not your typical bar so don't be coming here thinking it's like your local dive bar. It's a great spot to take a date too as well after getting out of the comedy club. You might as well pregame here or come here to drink after the comedy show! Service here was excellent as well! read more

Top notch experience all the way! The service was great and they were attentive- the table was consistently cleaned and tended to and my drink was never empty. We had Branzino, which came with arugula- fantastic! We also had field green salad and the chopped salad. The chopped salad was enough for two people. I had the no meat option, with broccolini and mashed potatoes. The flavor was amazing and the food was enough for two people- the servings for some dishes are large. Prices are a bit more but the food is worth it. We will definitely be making a return trip. read more

Amazing!!! Came here for my husbands birthday, from Carlsbad, and it was so worth the drive! It was packed. So reservations are a must, we arrived a little early, so we got a drink at the bar, bartender was super nice! I started off with the French onion soup- cheesy goodness! I got the filet mignon, husband got the ribeye. Both good. But his was DELICIOUS! I would definitely get that next time. We added Brussels and "gratin" potatoes- which are huge slices of potatoes with more cheese! They ended the night with a little cake for him. It was the perfect evening.

Food: 4* Service: 4* Ambience: 5* Ate with a colleague for lunch. I ordered the lobster grilled cheese. At $36, I hoped it to be special. It was good, and lobster meat was ample, the small amount of tomato soup was paltry. The cheese frico (fried cheese) on the sandwich from pan searing the bread was great. Next time, I would try something else. The service was good. Nothing spectacular, just good as expected. The ambiance was great. Upscale, comfortable, and welcoming. The location is a little strange and difficult to get to, but once you find it, you will enjoy it. It was festooned with holiday decor, which just added to the coziness. I would return. read more

We came here for our anniversary and had a nice experience. I love the atmosphere in here - so cozy and inviting, yet lively and full of character. Our servers were great, although I've never really had two servers fully servicing our table before. The scallop crudo is an absolute must, and so is the risotto gniocchi! We split the ribeye (ordered medium rare and it definitely came out on the (very) rare side) and the lobster. I do feel like the total price of our bill was rather pricey for the total experience, but overall, it was still wonderful and I'd come back again! read more

We decided to come here for our anniversary. There are plenty of parking lot so parking is pretty easy. They are located right next to the improv in the same building.

You get all the different types of vibes. You can come here for all occasions. We started with a bread basket. I love bread and the bread roll was good. It came with three type but the circle bread stole the show. It was so soft and yummy. All I needed was this. Next, we got steaks, mashed potatoes, and creamed corn. The steak and sides were good. Everything was cooked well. My favorite part was the baked garlic that comes with the steaks. It was delicious eating that with my steak. The service was awesome.

Solid steak house located in Brea. Dishes tasted fresh and high quality. Started off with some warm bread. Pretzel was soft like it was just baked. The jumbo lump crab cake fits its name. Has jumbo lumps of crab! The crispy fried Brussels sprouts were crispy and have crispy bacon bits on it. Potato au gratin came with melted gouda and cheddar. French onion soup has thick layer of cheese and goes well with the soup. The Chimichurri steak sandwhich has a good chimichurri flavor and comes with shoestring fries. Red trout cooked perfectly and pairs great beurre blanc sauce. Came during lunch rush and servers were busy. Had some trouble trying to get their attention but friendly staff and recommended us some wine. Above average steak house and would recommend if in the area. read more

The staff were very nice. I tried the ribeye and I was very tasty as well. Was surprised with the garlic that came with it and that taste it very well with the steak. I ordered the mood enhancer alcoholic beverage, and that was very strong, not complaining. It was good though. It is by reservation primarily but they had a bar that is first come first serve basis, and we were able to sit there and have our full meal there. Overall, it was a great experience There was a drunk guy next to me at the bar and the staff were checking on me to make sure that I was OK and nicely told that guy to leave the restaurant.
