HAVE: 5/5 Crispy Calamari 5/5 House Spinach dip 5/5 Short Rib Stroganoff 5/5 Dad's Prime Rib So glad we booked ahead because this place was packed! Even with a reservation, there was a brief 10-15-minute wait. The food was absolutely delicious! Our server Shane was incredibly attentive and checked in on us constantly. He even got creative when I asked about the spinach dip; while it usually comes with bread and don't serve it with chips. Shane suggested fried wontons instead, and they actually paired even better than the chips would have. The place is cozy, and modern. It has a comfortable booth and a bar but not too loud - perfect for any occasion. Located in downtown Brea, parking could be hectic during busy hours. While there is no dedicated lot or street parking directly in front, there is a nearby parking structure, and depending on where you park in the structure, it might be a bit of a walk. Great food and even better service. I'll definitely be back soon, if only for those fried wontons. read more

Yelp Review Template Reunion Kitchen + Drinks *June 21, 2025 *6pm- Saturday *4 Stars Environment: *Adequate parking *Nice ambiance Food/Drink: *Brussel Sprouts *House Spinach Dip *Slice Steak and Potato Salad I stopped by this restaurant in downtown Brea for dinner and had a really solid experience overall. The layout and design of the restaurant is very nice. The restaurant is located right next to Brea Improv and shares the lobby with another restaurant near. Both restaurants seems pretty popular and filled when I arrived, but the space was big enough to accommodate both areas well. Once inside, the lighting is on the dimmer side--so if you're coming with someone who has trouble seeing in low light, be prepared to pull out your phone flashlight just to read the menu. I went with two friends and we shared the Brussels sprouts and spinach dip. The Brussels sprouts were cooked well, but the flavoring leaned a little too sweet for my taste. House spinach dip, which I really enjoyed. It was flavorful without being overly creamy, and they served it with a generous portion of bread. My main was the sliced steak and potato salad. The steak was cooked perfectly and super tender, the potatoes were well-seasoned, and the salad was fresh. The only downside was that the dressing on the salad was a bit heavy for me. Overall, it was an enjoyable experience but just a little pricey for my taste. read more

We made reservations to eat here for my grandpas 80th bday. The reservation was easy to make and the customer service over the phone was great, I had quite a few questions regarding the reservation and it never seemed like the one I spoke to on the phone was ever annoyed, I believe her name was Yahaira. When we came in our table was all set up and our table was split between two servers Wyatt and Paula I believe were their names. Their service was great and even at the end most our party left while some of us stayed behind and we never felt rushed and we actually ended up ordering one last round and they still were happy to help us and still let us get our bottomless mimosas. Which is 20$ for just champagne and $25 to include it with juice. I don't remember most the drinks names as it was the other people in my party ordering them. The crispy Asian ribs are a must! They were soo delicious, probably the favorite food item we ordered. I only was able to picture what those who sat around me ordered since we were such a large party. The deviled eggs were not the best, they tasted like potato salad from stater bros. The French onion soup was okay. The sliders were good, probably my second favorite item prob like a 3/5. The breakfast burrito was okay but the red salsa was good, it was spicy. All the drinks were good. There is two free parking structure near the restaurant. Inside it decorated pretty, it was a little quiet though but I'm not sure if that's because we had a morning reservation. Overall the service was great and the food was okay and all my party had a great time and still enjoyed the food and agreed the service was great. I'd still go back again and say it is a place worth trying read more

A new option for dinner and drinks in DT Brea! I recommend making a reservation on Yelp. Came on a Friday night and it was busy, but luckily made a reservation beforehand so there was no wait. There's some parking in the back and a parking garage close by. We ordered the following: * Double Oklahoma Smash Burger $24.95 Comes with a side of shoestring fries, slaw, or potato salad. This was good and portion was huge but nothing too special. The fries were also really salty. Also surprised there wasn't more burger options. * Beer Battered Fish and Chips $26.95 Comes with a thai peanut slaw and shoestring fries. Portion was also big and filling. The slaw was a nice side. * Butter Cake $12.95 Would order this again! Comes with vanilla bean ice cream and the raspberry puree was a great touch! It's a little different than the other butter cakes I've had, but a good option. The inside was a softer, creamier texture? Decent spot to hang out with friends and love how you can easily make a reservation. The food is heavy though so I wouldn't come often. Service was good but also slow and we didn't see our server often, but might be because it was busy. Overall, would give a 3.5/5. read more

Came here for an anniversary dinner. We were seated immediately. Came here on Thursday at 7:30pm. You can make reservations online. Ambiance was dim, but they opened the shade for an outdoor vibe. First time here, I didn't know what to expect. For appetizers we got the Avocado Wontons and calamari. Crave alert!! The avocado wontons have fresh watermelon on top. This was so refreshing with a citrus kick. I will be craving this appetizer for a while!! It was mouthwatering delish! We hade the cioppino and tequila lime shrimp for dinner - um.. yuuuummmm. The sauce in the tequila lime was buttery with a hint of mescal. I could totally swim in that sauce. My husband said his Cioppino was mid. I don't even know if I'm spelling it right. My son ordered the cheesy garlic pasta and grilled cheese. Portions were huge on kids menu! Ended with butter cake and it did not disappoint! Tasted like a warm strawberry shortcake - so good. Ended with hot towels... they were a little too hot at first. But felt good to clean up after. Service was quick, friendly, and approachable. I'll definitely be coming back here. Seriously tho - go try the avocado wontons with the watermelon. read more

great location, parking & security. Diversified menu bar. Quick serve & portions. had enough leftovers for a second meal!!

I had brunch here with my husband and some friends. It was good, wished they had better coffee options, like lattes or iced coffee, especially for a trendy place like this. The food options were ok, but I can't stand biscuits so bummed that I wasn't able to sub that out, so I settled for the chilaquiles which was good. My husband enjoyed his Hawaiian French toast, our friends had the regular French toast and the breakfast sandwich. The portions are pretty decent, service is good and the atmosphere is nice. It looked like a cool place for dinner. I love the location in DT Brea, ample parking and near other great spots like the Improv and Finney's. read more

This restaurant was on my bucket list to try. It's adorable inside, with nice-sized indoor seating. Nice decent bar size area with televisions surrounding for games, etc. We watched the Dodgers game and had a fantastic time. I had the homemade pot pie, Asian wings, and clam chowder. Everything was made fresh to order, hot, and was delicious. The wings were tender and very flavorful. The pot pie was very good and nice flaky crust. Clam chow bet was creamy and filled with goodness. Lol. The service by David was phenomenal. He was so fun and wonderful. He made out 1st time here very pleasantly. He was very honest and accommodating. I ordered a Ruby Red grapefruit martini that was unbelievably great. I will go back and try brunch next. This place is family-oriented and a great place to dine before going to the Improv comedy with friends, etc. Parking is located in the rear lot for valet for $8 or if you have a handicap it's free. Also, there is parking lots across the street and parking on the street. Note; Located in Downtown Brea, near several other eateries located in the area. Great place to watch games. Adjacent from Old Brea Chop House . They give out hot towels to wash your hands which I love. read more

I've been to this restaurant in the Anaheim Hills area, which is closer to my home. But this one which is in Brea was just as nice and big. We didn't have reservations, but the hostess sat us down right away. Huge menu selection. Everything recommended to us was good. The drinks were strong with a hint of sweetness, those are the best kind of drinks! Our waitress was friendly, attentive and helped us w their recommendations. We were both satisfied and finished mostly everything. You could never go wrong with Reuion Kitchen. read more

Great location, super friendly staff and awesome service. We did enjoy the vibe, ambience, & music. Food and drinks were just ok.

Stopped by my old stomping grounds for dinner with a friend & tried Reunion for the first time & food did not disappoint. The name is fitting as it truly was a reunion dinner. We got the citrus salmon salad and veggie burger with shoe string fries. The veggie burger on brioche was delicious! They also use a house made patty with only 12 ingredients. For dessert we did a warm butter cake paired with chamomile tea. Food was great, service was a bit slow but I think they were understaffed during rush hour. And ambiance is dark/modern with both a bar & booth seating. Would definitely be back for that burger. Cheers! read more

We ran in before a Concert to grab a bit to eat. We were going to go to Yard House, because we both had gift cards, but the bar was packed and there was a 45 minute wait for a table. So we ate at Reunion. I'm so glad that we did! We sat at the bar, because I live sitting at the bar. We got the calamari, the poke stack (now it's poke tacos) and some beers. My only complaints on the poke was that the avocado was diced too large, it made it awkward to eat and there wasn't enough fried chips to eat all of the tuna. Otherwise, it was a great experience and I will definitely try it again. read more

We just finished eating here and I don't normally leave reviews right away but I had to in case I forget to do it later. Cherish made this evening extremely special. She is a special server and reunion should be lucky to have her. We had a large party and she made it feel very intimate. Her personality is warm and wholesome and she gave the best recommendations. My husband didn't like his pulled pork sandwich, and he has NEVER felt comfortable sharing that with a server (he would rather just eat it and not complain) but cherish made him feel comfortable enough to share that he wasn't pleased with it. She recommended a burger and we LOVED it. The food was amazing. The halibut special was delectable. Cherish shared the table with another server. A young blonde female. Taylor I think? Unfortunately she's the reason we're not leaving 5 starts. And if she was our only server we would be leaving 1 star. She didn't make us feel welcomed and it felt like she was not pleased to be serving us. I'm not sure why. Honestly though, we were a large party of brown skinned people who spoke Spanish and she wasn't happy with us from the beginning. So... maybe made assumptions about us? When it came to pay she's the one that took care of us paying. She made sure to let me know if we split the payment that the full tip amount "deserved" wouldn't be reflected in the final payment. And that I would need to customize the tip to reflect the full tip amount. Which I'm aware of. I once was a server for about 20 years or so? I know what she was insinuating. And I took it as an insult that she needed to share that with me. She assumed we weren't going to leave them the appropriate amount of tip. And if it was just Taylor serving I probably wouldn't have left the full amount bc with that attitude why should I? But bc of cherish being a part of the serving team I left 30% on a $400 bill. That unfortunately left a bad taste in my mouth, and in the future we will definitely be asking to not be seated with Taylor, and hopefully have the luck to sit in cherish's section. Appetizers were great. Drinks were great. Highly recommend Ask for cherish if you go. Eat the blackened halibut. You won't regret it read more

There for Mother's Day, it was perfectly done. I had a great meal that ran smoothly lots of people..

Food was amazing and service was the best! The vibe in the place is really great for friends and the family with kids.

Came here for brunch a few weeks back and it was good. Got seated quickly with reservation. Surprised it wasn't busier on a Sunday. They had brunch option only during the time. I got eggs Benedict which were pretty good. They only have tots and no hash brown which I prefer. I didn't like that they didn't have many grilled options for brunch. Our server was great on the bottomless mimosas they did not skimp like other places might. One thing I noticed that all 4 dishes came with tots and when our food was brought out there was no ketchup. We had to ask for ketchup and they brought 1 out and 4 of us were trying to share until they brought another one out. Just yesterday I went to Mother's Day outing at the reunion kitchen in corona and 5 people got an entree with fries and no ketchup was brought out. When we asked for ketchup they brought out 3? Idk weird to me this ketchup thing. I thought it was just the brea location but now it's 2 that do the same thing. I'm read more

Food was great, lovely outdoor patio and ambiance. Service was excellent. Highly recommended. Thanks

It was really good. Our server was great & attentive. The portions are large! The kids menu is way too complex for little ones, in my opinion. They should have a few classic food choices. Not that this would been an issue for everyone. However, we do like trying new places with our kids & this wasn't it for them. So I wouldn't go back with them. I'd go back for a date night or for lunch w friends. The food took a while to come out, they were pretty busy though. Worth it to go & try if you're in the area. read more

I've been to Reunion once before in Anaheim Hills a couple years ago, and was looking forward to them opening one in Brea! I'll start by saying that apparently they opened months ago, which I was surprised to hear! I was under the impression it was still under construction, and truthfully their location is awkward. It's attached to the Improv and their host stand shares the entrance area. We walked toward the back and on the side of the street, opened a side door that put us in the middle of the restaurant, and only then found the actual entrance. It wasn't super clear and considering they're a newer spot it might be confusing for someone who's never been. I only found out they were open through a google search ! Still aside from that the restaurant itself is nice. It's clean and has a great vibe for dates or group gatherings. Our server Kendall was awesome! She was super friendly and answered all our questions about the menu and even gave us drinks suggestions! Now I don't know what was happening at the bar, but our cocktails didn't arrive until after our food came out. Our server would check on us and check on the drinks, but it seemed to me that the bartenders were having trouble getting the drinks out. Not a big deal in the grand scheme, but we definitely saw other larger tables sat after us get their drinks way faster. Still, Kendall was attentive and made sure we were taken care of! Food and drink wise I really enjoyed my meal! Our cocktails tasted great and my fried chicken was very tasty. The sandwich my partner ordered was truthfully a little dry and bland, but it was nothing that some sauce couldn't fix. For dessert we ordered the butter cake which was good. It was a little custard on the top but the bottom of it was more like traditional butter cake. Overall we had a great meal! I probably won't stop by here often just because a lot of the menu is super heavy! But, it's nice to have another option for dining out in the area and if I'm in the mood I'll definitely be back. read more

Spectacular service, drinks and food. One of the best burgers I've had. The flavor and crunch on the sourdough plus the flavor of the burger blended so well. Believe it or not the mix of flavors on the sweet raspberry sauce and the bacon wrapped jalapeño go so well together. That will definitely be our Appetizer go to dish. The Brussels Sprouts were too toasted for my preference but flavor was good. read more

This is a great spot to hang out with friend/family or have a date night. Reunion Brea is in a great location, the staff was friendly, and the food was great.

Before our food came out I leaned over to my wife to let her know that we'll definitely be returning for a date night. Excellent customer service. read more

I hosted 10 people her last week. The vibe was good, the food was tasty and the service was spot on.

I've been wanting to check out Reunion for a while now but never got the time or chance to. I was pleasantly surprised when I found out a class I signed up for was having an optional dinner after the first day of class here. I'm normally the type to not attend but forced myself to get out of my comfort zone and I'm so glad I did! Definitely helps when you're in the midst of good company with like minded individuals who also love to eat. My new friend and I both happened to have ordered the same dish - the special going on that day which happened to be the hangar steak. We both agreed that it was so yummy and also enjoyed the desserts we ordered as a group: butter cake, lemon bar, and the chocolate cake. We all had our individual favorites which helped divide up the portions amongst all of us. A controversial take I had after was that I felt this butter cake was much better than Mastro's butter cake. =P Service was also amazing! The restaurant is definitely well equipped and trained to handle large groups. Definitely very impressed! Can't wait to come back for another social occasion. read more

Reunion Kitchen is located right next to the Brea Improv. Going into trying this place for the first time, my wife and I were very excited because we had been walking past the construction and watching the progress as it was renovated for so long. We were very eager to try this place and hopefully make it a regular place to visit! But after trying it for the first time we had very mixed feelings. The restaurant itself is very beautifully renovated and has everything in place to be a trendy popular spot! The service was good too, the staff were attentive but I can't say it really stood out. They were nice but at some point it just felt like they were just turning tables. Considering we went realitively soon after the opening and early in the evening, I would have expected a bit more warm and enthusiastic. Despite that, we were still excited to get the food and I will say the presentation was very nice. And the food did look good. However, everything we ordered tasted a bit bland and it left us underwhelmed. I'd give it three stars because our overall experience wasn't bad but just left us wanting a bit more. We'll definitely give it another chance soon and hopefully they've improved as time has passed! read more

This place is always a great choice they have a wide variety of of food to choose from and everything is good!

First time going to this restaurant. Very nice style, ambiance and decor inside are awesome. It is a cozy environment to spend some time with friend or family or even a date.

Reunion Kitchen & Drink in Brea has a really nice vibe and great aesthetics, but the menu just wasn't that impressive to me. I was hoping for healthier options and didn't find much, so I settled on the salmon salad. It was fine, but definitely not worth the price tag--I'd say more like $10 less. My friends ordered sandwiches and burgers, and one of them had the steak and potato salad, which she really enjoyed. Service was solid, but overall, the food didn't stand out enough for me but I'll give it one more try when I'm back in the area. Chicken pot pie did look good, so we shall see. read more

Visited on a weekday, and though the place was fairly busy, service was attentive and catered to our requests the best they could. The place was dimly lit with modern decor. Parking was available for free across the street in the public parking garage. Items ordered: - Old Fashioned cocktail: Delicious and mildly sweet with their house choice, Templeton Rye - Lower Manhattan cocktail: Rye, bitters, filthy cherry, and an orange peel. My favorite drink of the night - PB&J Old Fashioned cocktail: Peanut butter infused whiskey with strawberry syrup and orange bitters. Not a fan of this drink, but I'm glad I gave it a try. - House Spinach Dip: Huge portion size. The dip includes tomatoes, jalapeños, and artichoke. The bread had a nice give and was the perfect complement to the dip. - Bacon-Wrapped Jalapeños: I didn't try this, but apparently it was delicious. Paired with a raspberry jam. - Loaded Deviled Eggs: Didn't try this either, but apparently it was also a hit. I can see why this place is so popular and has such high reviews. We got full from the appetizers/snack plates, but next time I will definitely give their entree dishes a try! read more

We also orderd the carrot cake for dessert and it was too sweet. It had caramel drizzled on it which made it sweet. The drinks were good though! The old-fashioned was delish and the blackberry breeze was super good! Service was just okay. We had ordered a second round of drinks and that took long. We had to remind the waiter.
