    We had an exceptional experience from start to finish! The food and drinks were amazing, but what truly stood out was the outstanding service from our server, Lucas. He was attentive, friendly, and made the entire experience so enjoyable. And the guava mezcalita was absolutely incredible--definitely a must-try! We can't wait to come back!

    OMG! While visiting Orange County we decided on Reunion for a late dinner. We shared appetizers since we couldn't decide on anything else and they did not disappoint. Service was prompt and the restaurant was filled with just the right amount of talk, laughter and noise. The loaded deviled eggs, Asian crispy ribs, and Avocado won tons w/watermelon were absolutely delicious!! Pictures won't do it justice, just go!!

    Still the best! I brought my friend whose new to the area here for dinner on a busy Thursday night. Was so fun! World cup playing on all the tv's. Food and service were fantastic, per usual. We both loved the stuffed jalapeño appetizer which does pack some heat when it's all done. I loved my Prime Flat Iron Steak -- cooked medium; it was tender, a lil salty for a couple bites, but otherwise perfectly seasoned. Asparagus was great as well. And the mash potatoes with blue cheese topping were outstanding. My friend loved her short rib, vegetables and mashed potatoes. She had the sauce on the side, suspecting it might be sweet, but it was not. She loved it all. We both had takeout containers because the portions were ample. And, my friend loved the lemon bar dessert. The taste I had of the dessert was fantastic; loved the crust and it was the perfect amount of tart vs sweet.

    My cousins and I visited for dinner after a long moving day. They have multiple locations, and I've been to the Santa Barbara location for brunch, so this is my first time visiting for dinner. Parking: They're located in a high foot traffic plaza. Finding a parking spot during rush hour will be difficult. Ambiance/Environment: They have a large space with lots of indoor seating and some outdoor seating. The inside is incredibly dark. Since my cousin brought her dog, we dined outside. They had a few umbrellas, but since the sun was setting, it didn't do much. It was very busy, so the wait time to dine inside was over 30 min. Since we opted to dine outside, we were luckily seated immediately. Service: I didn't catch his name, but thank you to the host who seated us immediately. He was really nice. Shout out to our server Elise for being quick and attentive. She checked on us a few times and refilled our waters. Throughput took under 20 min after ordering. Food & drinks: I ordered the Nashville Hot Chicken and Dad's Mai Tai. The entree included baked & fried chicken thighs, drenched with hot honey Nashville sauce, and served with mac & cheese, green beans, and a biscuit on the side. The sauce was sweet and had a slight spicy kick to it. It made the chicken even more delicious. The mac & cheese was creamy, and the green beans were seasoned well. The biscuit was dry, and the butter didn't really help. I like sweet cocktails, but the Dad's Mai Tai was too sweet for me. The maybe extra shots of rum would've been sufficient. Pricing: I really enjoyed their dinner! Highly recommend the Nashville Hot Chicken entree! Prices are more than you'd expect, but it's not surprising in this economy.

    I love this location. Reunion is one of the best places for a little meet up with friends with wonderful service and attentive servers. The food and drinks here are amazing and everything is always on the up and up. Whether you are coming for a date or coming to hang out, this place has such a welcoming vibe.

    My first time here and experience was great. Our server was very attentive and the food was okay. It had more of a steakhouse vibe than brunch and was pleasantly surprised at the brunch selection. I ordered the chilaquiles - delicious, and the pancakes - a little dense and dry. I rounded up to 4 stars but this place is probably a solid 3.75.

    I recommend making a reservation so you don't miss out. The food is so filling and the service was great. My date and I sat outside, ordered food and drinks to share, and had a nice time together. And leave room for dessert! We took our butter cake to go, it was delicious.

    King Hawaiian French toast

    The Ultimate Brunch Destination in Anaheim Reunion Kitchen remains one of my favorite brunch spots in Anaheim. The vibe is always on point, great music, comfortable seating, and a menu that actually keeps things interesting. The Brunch MVP: You cannot go wrong with the King's Hawaiian French Toast. It's an absolute staple for me. Small Plates to Share: Deviled Eggs: These are a must. They don't skimp on the filling, and that bit of bacon adds the perfect crunch. Jalapeño Poppers: The pairing with raspberry jam is genius, that sweet and spicy combo is honestly mouthwatering. The Drinks: My husband is a huge fan of their Bloody Mary. It's heavily garnished with a bacon-wrapped jalapeño popper and finished with a Tajin rim it's practically a meal in itself. They are also one of the few spots offering bottomless mimosas, which is always a plus. Room for Improvement: While I love the bottomless option, I do wish they would just leave a bottle of champagne at the table. Chasing down a server for every refill makes the experience feel a bit interrupted. Aside from that, I love this place and keep coming back!

    Had lunch with my daughter here at the location in Anaheim Hills. Really good service. The drinks in the food were excellent Ambience was great, but they are very busy. We didn't wait for a table. We sat at the bar Service was quick and friendly, one of my favorite spots in Anaheim Hills!

    Ok. REUNION! You did your thing and helped us have an amazing meal celebrating Father's Day. Yelpers if you are so lucky you will get Hannah as your server. She is awesome! Coupled with great food, you cant go wrong on dining here. Great vibe!

    Asian Rib Appetizer
    Bill G.

    Recommend going in to eat. Their Asian Rib Appetizer is amazing but DO NOT get it to go. You'll end up getting the runts, overcooked and extremely small. Had this been the only time getting little cold runts or rib lets Id let it go but for over $25 not a fan of the way the treat to go orders. Someone start checking the cooks output.

    What other better place to celebrate our friend reunion at a place called "Reunion"? ;) We were looking for a good brunch place to try out and found this place near Corona. Parking: I had no problem finding parking spot as the lot is huge and shared with many other businesses. Interior: We were seated right away without any wait time as we arrived when they just opened. We were seated in a dark area of the restaurant (think bar vibe) so I was a little not sure at first. Most brunch places I went to were always filled with sunlight and bright colorful interiors. This place embraced a classic, quiet feel, something like a Steak House would have. Service: Our server's name was Susan I believe, who was nice and attentive through the whole meal, despite the crowd slowly built up and filled the restaurant. She never failed to check back on us, not just once but twice and refilled our water. She probably isn't as familiar with the brunch menu favorites but seem to know more about the Main menu. The General Manager came out and greeted us because most of their customers are regulars and it's uncommon to have first timers like us visiting. This nice hospitality made us feel very warmly welcomed and impressed. Food: I couldn't decide whether to go with the Slow braised beef on the brunch menu (braised beef benedict) or the main menu but ended up going with the Main menu to get a good portion size. It was a perfect choice because the beef is just amazing. It was cooked to a soft perfection, well seasoned, the roasted vegetable was also cooked just right and not super raw/ crunchy like other places. Then the star of the show arrived - the butter cake. As Susan suggested, this is their most popular dessert and I can see why. The butter cake comes piping hot with the ice cream on top. There's a nice sugar crunchy feel near the bottom of the cake. It's so delicious that I want to come back just to eat this cake. We had a great time overall and would love to come back.

He made unprofessional remarks, both behavioral and audibly unwarranted jokes that made me visibly uncomfortable and chose to not rectify that. I chose to limit communication with him the rest of the time there. He had issues with communicating my order. I also didn't like how he kept trying to make HiS point instead of allowing me to explain what I wanted to order. He talked over me, didn't allow me to ask clarifying questions. He took a long time to get me my tea drink. He refilled my cup when he could tell that I didn't want it or need it. It's the subtle inuendos he showed that wander me feel very uncomfortable. Very unprofessional! I spoke with two servers at the front desk twice about his behavior and I professionalism. Towards the end, Jill took care of our bill. I told her about my experience, she was very professional, gave me a gift card for my next visit, and communicated with me beautifully. She mentioned that she will address Westin about his unprofessionalism. Now, that is great customer service! I absolutely will be returning to this location in the future because of Justin and Jill!

My sister originally chose Terra because she saw a picture of one of their salads with salmon and knew immediately that was what she wanted. We had no idea we were about to discover a new favorite restaurant. 10/10 -- I've already bookmarked Terra because I will absolutely be back. When we arrived, we told our server we had never been there before and asked what she recommended. Her descriptions of the food were fantastic, and she steered us toward the wood-grilled peaches with burrata and arugula. Oh. My. Goodness. Absolutely delicious! The grilled peaches, creamy burrata and arugula were such a wonderful combination. Then the salad came out, with salmon added. I took my first bite and was literally speechless. It was an explosion of flavor -- the avocado, salmon, sesame dressing and everything else going on in that salad just worked. The salmon costs extra, but it was absolutely worth it. The peach dish and the salad were completely different flavor experiences, and honestly I would happily order both of them again. We were talking about how we were gonna come back and try to resist ordering the same thing over again, but that will be a challenge. Of course, we were at a wood-fired pizza restaurant, so we HAD to try the pizza. We ordered half-and-half. One side was the fingerling potato pizza, especially after our server told us the story about the owner's daughter wanting fingerling potatoes on her pizza and how that helped inspire the restaurant. Obviously, after hearing that story, we had to try the pizza that started it all! And it did not disappoint. I can definitely see myself ordering that again. The other half was the salami pizza with the honey drizzle. It was supposed to have some heat -- my sister could taste it, although I couldn't -- and the honey made it a really interesting combination. Not something I would normally think to order, but definitely worth trying. I also ordered the citrus agave, thinking it was basically a fancy name for lemonade. It wasn't! Lemon, orange and lime made it much more interesting, with just a slight bitterness from the citrus that balanced the sweetness. Delicious and different. We sat upstairs, where there was a wonderful breeze coming through on a summer evening. The whole atmosphere was charming and relaxed, the service was excellent, and the food was memorable. The biggest surprise? Terra is right near my office, and I never knew it was there. Definitely a 10/10. I came because of a recommendation, and now I'm recommending it to everyone else. I will absolutely be back.

    Went here for a birthday celebration…read more Food, drinks, ambience were all amazing. Great service, got us in and out in a timely manner.

    On Saturday evening, around 10:00 p.m., my wife, son, and I were looking for a place to enjoy a…read morelate dinner. My son called Culinary Dropout and spoke with Olivia, the hostess, to see if the kitchen was still serving. Olivia responded with genuine warmth and kindness, assuring us that the kitchen was still open and that they would be happy to welcome us. From the moment we arrived, Olivia's hospitality set the tone for an exceptional evening. She greeted us with a warm smile, made us feel genuinely welcome, and promptly seated us. Shortly after, our server, Layla, introduced herself. Despite the late hour, she was energetic, engaging, and had an infectious enthusiasm that elevated the entire dining experience. She expertly recommended several cocktails, along with a glass of wine, and her knowledge of both the bar program and the menu was impressive. Her recommendations for appetizers and entrées were spot on. We decided on the Wagyu Pigs in a Blanket, BBQ Nachos, and the Spicy Rigatoni. Every dish was beautifully prepared, flavorful, and exceeded our expectations. Another team member, Emanuel, delivered one of our dishes and was equally personable and engaging. He took the time to share information about the restaurant, further demonstrating the outstanding level of hospitality displayed by the entire team. Manager Dave also stopped by our table to check on our experience. We shared with him that this was, without question, one of the best dining experiences we've had in Orange County in quite some time. Great food certainly matters, but it was the exceptional service, genuine hospitality, and positive energy of the staff that made the evening truly memorable. A sincere thank you to Layla, Olivia, Emanuel, Dave, and the entire Culinary Dropout team for creating such a first-class dining experience. We look forward to returning soon and will gladly recommend your restaurant to family and friends.

    I haven't been here in ages but out of all the things I wanted from here... it was their butter…read morecake lol best butter cake I have ever had and the star of the show for me! Perfectly sweet and served with dulce de leche, strawberry syrup with fresh strawberries and vanilla ice cream.. they all go well with the butter cake. Of course that was for dessert.. but to start for lunch, I ordered the house taco selection which comes with 4 tacos (Korean, steak, birria, and cueva tacos). I loved the cheese crusted tortilla on their tacos, and the cueva taco was my fave out of the four! The steak was dry so it was my least fave but the Korean and birria taco were also yummy! Nice way to sample their different tacos! Their guava agua Fresca was a refreshing drink to go with my tacos. My friend ordered their cheese enchiladas in their cream red sauce. She said it was different from any red sauce she has ever had but she said she enjoyed her enchiladas. Service was attentive and friendly. Each server checked in on us regularly. Came here on a Saturday for lunch and it was surprisingly not busy at all like how it used to be. Overall, the food was just like I remembered and I wish I had come back sooner. I'll def be back again to try other things on their menu!

    Food no Bueno. Service was ok…read more I would never go back. They inside they try to do some sort of back alley graffiti and some Japanese umbrella but the place looks like it's has identity issues.

The only complaint I have is that they never have the Steak Dinner or the Kabobs available when I go in for dinner. They have been out of these plates the last 4 times I have been in. Other than that, this place is great to grab a drink and watch a game.

    Hi Melene Thank you for your response. I want to acknowledge…read morethat I did eventually sit down without being seated, and I understand that doing so was not consistent with your normal process. For that, I take responsibility. However, I believe your description leaves out important context that contributed to the situation. I waited in line like every other customer and spoke directly with the hostess. She was preparing to seat me, but then informed me that because I did not yet have all four members of my party present, I could not be seated. I explained that some members of my party were still looking for parking while others were on their way, and asked whether I could simply be seated as a party of one while I waited. I had driven a considerable distance specifically for this event and intended to purchase food and drinks. I was told that I could not be seated or served until the rest of my party arrived. What made this especially confusing was that the event had been advertised as first come, first served. Based on that advertising, I reasonably expected that arriving early and waiting in line would secure a place. Instead, I was told I could not be seated or served despite having arrived and waited my turn. Out of frustration, I briefly sat down hoping to get a drink of water and order food while waiting. When I was told I could not sit there, I immediately got up and left the table. I then asked whether there was anywhere else I could at least get food and water while waiting for my friends. Both the hostess and the manager informed me that I could not be served unless my full party was present. What further added to my frustration was watching a party of two get seated shortly afterward. Whether there were circumstances I was unaware of or not, it created the appearance that the policy was being applied inconsistently. My concern is less about being denied a table and more about the inconsistent messaging and customer experience. Had I been clearly informed in advance that "first come, first served" was subject to a full-party seating requirement, I would have planned accordingly. While I can acknowledge my role in the interaction, I believe there is also an opportunity for your business to reflect on how situations like this are communicated and handled. Customer dissatisfaction often comes not from the existence of a policy, but from inconsistent application and poor communication of that policy. Given the number of reviews expressing similar concerns, it may be worth considering whether there is a pattern that deserves attention. I wish your business success and appreciate you taking the time to respond.
