Very rarely do I get a deal in the OC on Goldstar on plays, so when I found one I wanted to see I…read moretook advantage. Theater is a little difficult to find as it is tucked back in what appeared to be somewhat of a depressed area (you could tell back in it's heyday the area was hoppin'). Street parking can also be difficult to find, and there is a parking structure nearby but not sure about the rates (Sun street metered parking is free all day). Theater itself is located in an art gallery, and it is very small and seating is congested (seats are also very uncomfortable like old style theater seating where you feel the springs pop out).

Paranormal Investigation Review…read more Our group was lucky enough to do a Paranormal investigation of Dr Howe-Waffle House. We had complete access to both floors of the house, but not the attic, and the coach house. We were given three hours to do our investigation, and we had a blast. Noah and Jessica, the house docents, were awesome and answered all of our questions. PROS: * FREE Parking. Gated and safe. 14 spaces available with plenty of metered street parking. * Complete access to both floors of the house, except the attic, and both levels of the Coach house for your investigation * The House Docents, Noah and Jessica, were available before, during, and after our investigation. Helped out with questions and guidance to paranormal hotspots *There is a nice and clean bathroom on the bottom floor for our use. * We were able to use all our paranormal investigative tools during the investigation. * This Dr. Howe-Waffle House is Haunted.... Cons: * Very pricy for a 3-hour investigation. There were 10 of us at $75 a pop. * The more people you go with, the more noise pollution you will have. You constantly have to be aware of where your team is and communicate with them. Inside and outside noise travels well in the house. * Being on the corner of W. Civic Center Drive and S. Syucamore St., there is a lot of outside noise pollution from vehicular and pedestrian traffic outside. The night we investigated, it was raining, it was cool, but you definitely picked up the wet traffic outside * The upper level of the Coach house is a little cluttered, so be careful if you investigate in the dark up there We picked up multiple EVPs (Electronic Voice Phenomenon) from a little girl and a woman, Orbs, and a light anomaly in one of the bedrooms. What an awesome experience The Dr. Howe-Waffle House is Haunted, no doubt about it, and the ghosts there do have a story to tell if you listen closely enough

I finally got the chance to explore this beautiful place…read more. They do charge a fee to go in and also there's limit parking inside but there the street parking right next to it. There is no time limit to go inside and walk around and explore everything. I took my sweet time inside they do have people inside to guide you and explain details about the house. I did videotape the house just in case you guys don't have time to go. You guys can explore what I explored.

Hilarious shows to help you escape from the drama of the day or the stresses of the world. Would recommend seeing one of the MainStage shows and/or taking an improv class which will change your life for the better. Devin and Gina(owners/performers/artistic directors/wonderful humans) provide a joyful space that fosters comedy and welcomes all. They have drinks and snacks to purchase. I drank an RC cola for the first time there. They have bathrooms as well if you drink too many RC colas. I attend and perform in their improv festival every year and they bring phenomenal acts like MAX! See you next year or sooner!

It's a landmark for Santa Ana…read more There's not much to it, really. However, it's cool to see. I wouldn't go out of my way to go see this spot. It's just a water tower at the end of the day. You can see the tower driving on the streets and from the freeway. I don't think you can get super close to it. Although, candidly I did not try to get out and walk up to it lol

WOW! What a great museum! Took my Father-in-Law here on…read moreFather's Day and he really enjoyed it! The day we came was actually during the world cup and in the main lobby they actually set up a projector and chairs in AC to watch the game! I don't think I've ever been to such a lively museum! LOL And we didn't know this but on Father's Day you can go in for free if you're a dad! Dang we lost our chance but the pricing here isn't to bad actually! About $18/person and if you want to park in the parking lot it's $6. Not to bad! Plenty of parking and clean :) I like that the museum is big, clean, and well thought up when each room is themed! And they also host monthly family culture days! Where they gave free snacks and other local businesses in the community were there to promote their services! If you're still thinking about coming here, just come! You won't regret it :D

Visit every museum you can at least once…read more Bowers is a nice visit. This is a smaller museum but they still cover a lot of ground. Art appreciation is the focus of your tour. Easy parking on the side. Eat in house halfway through your visit if you like. Or leave and return. I like how the art is arranged throughout the repurposed property. Plenty of descriptions for your reading pleasure on your walk-through. Small museum but taking your time you can easily spend a full day here.

Starting June 12, 2026, I officially became a California Notary Public for a four-year term! A quick note for anyone visiting: parking can be a little challenging. Richard mentioned there is a free parking lot behind the building, but I wasn't sure which one he meant, so I decided not to risk it and parked elsewhere. Overall, a very smooth experience thanks to the helpful staff!

Not all government offices are created equal -- and this one actually runs well…read more I came in to record a quitclaim deed and fully expected to block off half my day. Instead, I waited maybe 5-10 minutes max, and from check-in to walking out the door, I was done in about 25 minutes. The process was straightforward and efficient. My documents were reviewed carefully (which I appreciate -- better to catch anything on the spot), fees were handled quickly, and nothing felt chaotic or unclear. The staff were professional, direct, and clearly knew what they were doing. The office itself was clean and organized, and the flow made sense. If you come prepared with your paperwork completed correctly, this location runs like it should. Efficient. Professional. No drama.
