    Corned Beef Hash
    Christina N.

    Main advice is to join the Yelp waitlist when you're on the way to Snooze. For a Saturday brunch, our wait was around 40 minutes once we checked in at the hostess stand, but it's a good area with other stores to shop in while you wait. We were sat outside and our server was really friendly, maybe as present as we needed sometimes, but that's to be expected with outdoor seating on a busy day. I ordered the corned beef hash and it was solid! It wasn't spectacular, but it hit all the notes I needed it to. The menu has so many options that there's something for everyone and I would come back to try something else out (maybe a breakfast burrito). I also think that some items rotate, which is good to know if you're someone who likes to look at the menu ahead of time.

    Parking can be a challenge in the area but I found paid hourly parking on the street. Patio dining is available. Loved the wicked inspired interior, high ceilings, variety of seating (bar, round booth, traditional). The hostess was friendly and sat us immediately. Iggy (server) was attentive and great. All the food was amazing! I ordered- Hot Chai, I just wish it was served in a mug and not a glass. Super Greens drink, refreshing with just the right amount of sweet with a little kick Protein Trio Omelet was perfectly cooked with the right proportion of meat and cheese. Cinnamon pancakes were off the charts, I'm gonna dream about that yumminess! Great experience overall and looking forward to going back!

    Came here for brunch with a friend and it's been a while that I've had Snooze, but I'm glad I went! There was a 10 minute wait for a table as it was a weekend. The server was super kind and checked in throughout the meal. I got the snooze classic which came with 3 eggs, a choice of protein, hash browns and the choice of either toast or tortilla. It also came with a side of jam. The dish was $15.50 and was very filling! The food came out hot and paired really well with hot sauce.

    Another successful Snooze location in the heart of downtown Orange. Food is pretty good and competitively priced. Service is good, but you do have to hunt down servers during busy hours. Plenty of parking available around the downtown Orange area in the parking structures Food/Drink- 4.5 stars- everything was really solid and no complaints Pork belly benedict- I really enjoyed the sweetness and savoriness of the whole meal Pancake flight- basically a breakfast dessert. I enjoyed every one of the flavors, but loved the variety (it would get monotonous ordering just 1 of the pancakes as a whole entree) Service- 4 stars All the servers are professional and accommodating. It just can get busy during their rush hour where you have to fetch for service Bottom Line Excellent breakfast spot located in the heart of downtown Orange

    Really just your standard American brunch/breakfast diner. They have a lot of interesting drinks though! Their always busy as well, but the line moves fast. Food came out quick and no complaints! I really enjoyed the tomato soup and grilled cheese! The blueberry pancakes also hit the spot! I tried my boyfriend's pancake flight, and would highly recommend the potato pancake. It sounds interesting/weird, but really has great flavor!!

    DISCONNECTED & ODD. Upon arrival, I was a little perplexed by the service as all the team members seemed to be on a different page. I sat at the bar as it was the fastest seating option for a solo diner on a Sunday morning and noticed some interesting things. For one, my "waitress" disappeared and so I was handed off to a new one. My next waitress wasn't very attentive, but she was a little nicer and I could tell she was new. My whole experience was very awkward and left me unimpressed compared to other Snooze locations. I got a "kiss my feet" aura from some of the crew and that left a bad taste in my mouth. My only reason for giving this location a three-star rating is the food and lattes. My breakfast was amazing and my honey oat latte really hit the spot. I sat by a nice gentleman to my right, but we were both a bit out of our element due to the service. The bar/counter is great for a morning game, I got to see some events on the screen while waiting. Overall, the location is huge and has a plenty of room for multiple parties. I spotted an outdoor patio with shaded seating (at least it was shaded while I was there). You'll find this Snooze in Old Towne near Plaza Park. There's paid parking nearby, but it's totally walkable if you live nearby or find a free parking space elsewhere.

    Superb brunch spot in the City of Orange - I stopped by with an old college buddy yesterday morning. He ordered a decaf coffee, I got my usual matcha latte, then ordered another as it was so good. For our food, I opted for avocado toast with a sunny side up egg and a side of avocado, he ordered a vegan scramble. The food was delicious and filling - perfectly made with fresh ingredients. Add in the warm and efficient service and reasonable prices, and this restaurant more than earned its 5 stars. Will be back!

    Came here for breakfast this morning with husband and his friend. We ordered: 1) garden harvest omelette $16.95 2) habanero pork belly fried rice with 2 egg $17.95 3) Benny duo with half Bella Benny and half habanero pork Benny $21.50 4) Fire roasted tomato soup $4.50 Everything was delicious and we ate so fast. Free parking along the street outside.

    Went here for an early lunch to celebrate a family milestone! Great food and drinks, kind of slow service. Had a decaf coffee and Rejuvenate drink. Food: Bravocado Toast. Benny Duo with a Smashed Avocado Benny and Bella! Bella! Benny. Garden Harvest Omelet; the chili lime avocado was very mild.

    Went to Snooze for a brunch/lunch affair to celebrate a birthday with family. Located in Old Towne OC, so try to come early so you have time to find adequate parking and join the Yelp waitlist to beat the crowd. Snooze gives retro diner vibes with modern health conscious/vegetarian options. Their Protein BLT Bowl (4.5/5) was oddly satisfying. I went in expecting to be still hungry after eating it, but the ratio of proteins, eggs, and spinach was perfect, delicious, and kept me full. I was happy to have tried Snooze and would be okay going again in the future!

    Strawberry Shortcake Pancakes
    America L.

    It was my birthday breakfast :) Good morning yelpers ..... oooof this place was not a snooze :) .... A bit of a wait time for 10:15 am on Sunday superbowl. Not too bad though . Service was pretty quick and the server had wonderful suggestions . The decor is super cute but a bit tight in the booths for a party of 5 ... we made it work . The partner kept it safe by ordering the snooze special ... I think that's what it was called . He was jealous of what I had ordered ... my plate seemed more flavorful . Check out the photos and i definitely am coming back to try something else . Get the strawberry shortcake pancakes and the Benny duo with avo smash and habanero ‍

    Basil & The Bee Burrata Toast | IG @moniquedao

    I wanted to try this place knowing full well that the parking situation isn't the best. We ended up parking around the block, but the walk really wasn't bad at all. I came specifically for the Basil & The Bee Burrata Toast, and it did not disappoint. It's a toasted rustic bread with balsamic date spread, burrata, basil pesto, roasted tomatoes and a drizzle of Mike's Hot Honey. I asked for the toast to be extra crunchy since all the toppings can easily make it soggy, and they were happy to accommodate. The toast leans a little on the sweet side, but overall it was delicious and packed with a lot of great flavors in every bite. We also tried the Garden Harvest Omelet, which was quite good as well. It's cage-free eggs with sautéed asparagus, red onions, mushrooms, zucchini and red bell peppers, topped with chili-lime avocado, herbed cream cheese and served with greens, Dijon vinaigrette, Parmesan, and spiced pepitas. It felt light, fresh, and healthy overall.

    Monte Cristo Brioche Toast*

    The French toast latte, is literally the best. I could have that every day! They ran out of the little French toast sticks that go on top, but no biggie, this was sooo delicious! Chey was sweet & attentive. We came in for my birthday & she helped me decide which bday pancake I wanted. Of course I went with my fave strawberry shortcake & it didn't disappoint! Everyone was so sweet & fun. They have it all decked out. No pun intended lol, they have like a Vegas theme going on & there's cards and dice everywhere. It's cute. We love a good theme. Bacon but better, you just have to try it.

    Right when you walk in

The service was outstanding--attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. What makes this place special is that there's no traditional cocktail menu.

It feels personal, interactive, and completely different from the typical bar experience.

When making reservations a $25 deposit is required per person but will be applied to your bill day of visit. The hostess was very kind upon check in and took us to the back where the 46 door is. She provided us a code and explained the time limit along with house rules. We were then told to knock on the door and proceed with the experience. Kudos to the owner as this is the only speakeasy in the OC that has a true speakeasy feel entrance. They had a gentleman open the peephole and ask for the entry code. Once we said the code we entered a really cool mine shaft area. The attention to detail was on point and I was impressed! We were then taken upstairs to a private bar where there are four tables of four so a max of 16. This makes sense as to why reservations are hard to come by. The only ding about seating is you are sat with strangers it is not a private table. Luckily we had a fun older couple at our table so it made the conversation more lively. Otherwise don't go here with an expectation of an intimate/ private date night. They also offer a limited food menu but looked very promising. However, we were here for a night cap so just dabbled in drinks. The bartender had a seasonal menu of 4 cocktails he created. He explained the drinks and then had us try each one with a straw. We then placed our order based on what we liked. He did say if we were not a fan he could create us our own personal cocktail as well. The old fashion he created was phenomenal! Overall, a cool little spot in the OC. Do wish they were open later as they do close at 11pm on Friday and Saturday.

After a farewell dinner to/at Gulliver's Prime Ribs Of Beef, our party of six continued the evening several miles away at Stowaway for some light bites and libations. Personally, I was all about the Hawaiiana tiki culture and tried to live it every day. Founded by co-owners Leonard Chan and Dominic Iapello, its current home of barely three years in a former dive bar came about when they unceremoniously had to leave the original location. With its proximity to Disneyland's Enchanted Tiki Room and the very niche underground-like society of tiki culture, they found their footing with a consistent customer base and the thrill of island escapism through colorful cocktails, pleasurable pupus, and tropical trimmings. Would I stow myself away somewhere inside and never leave!? PURCHASE(S) Don Q Punch Bowl ($38.00): Made with Don Q's Cristal Silver, Anejo, and 151 Gold Rums, respectively, peach brandy, passion fruit, pineapple juice, and citrus juices, this flaming concoction was rumtastic in every way possible as the tropical juices just made it that much sweeter. There were more ice chips than I liked, but it was a fun trough to drink out of for the four of us who wanted to imbibe. Coconut Shrimp 6pc ($12.00): Breaded and flash-fried plump shrimp served with a sweet chili dipping sauce, these were tasty and perfectly paired with the Don Q cocktail I was drinking. Stowaway Fries ($17.00): Constructed with a pile of crisp golden spud sticks, rum braised pork, and topped with a hearty gravy and sunny-side up egg, this loco moco fries dish was slamming while the slightly charred juicy pork had me squealing with enjoyment. SERVICE We had reservations, so once our entire party arrived, they quickly seated us in a cool cave-live separate alcove for more privacy. Our server arrived with menus, suggestions, and glasses of water. Minutes later, we all ordered at once, and everything (drinks and food) arrived within ten minutes. Because we had another reservation inside the same bar, we informed our male server and to let us know when we were allowed to go there. All was casual, chill, and somewhat on island time - aloha and mahalo! PARKING (FREE): They shared a medium-sized private lot with several other businesses who were closed at this time with plenty of spots - 'nuff said. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE Located within a strip mall, you opened the front door and walked into an island oasis as if you were a cast member on "Gilligan's Island" with thatched roof material above you, tiki statues displaced on all of the volcanic-looking walls, collections of tiki mugs past and present for purchase, a central square bar with plenty of stools, and seemingly small dark nooks and private spaces where naughty things could happen. No natural lighting whatsoever while an assortment of extremely low-lit electric lights barely guided you along. There were no TVs while I recalled various styles of music played in the background along with chatter and clamor of conversations in all directions. ATTIRE Although I was actually dressed appropriately for the occasion in an aloha shirt, linen pants, and flip-flops, this place was totally casual, so a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops would suffice. OVERALL I had a cowabunga time at Stowaway, and I couldn't wait to return to try more of their awesome-soundling elixirs. I loved tiki bars, and although this was generally out of my range, I'd make a special trip or two here. My one drink was lip-smacking good, the pupus were yummy, the prices were reasonable enough, the atmosphere was stupendous, and the service was friendly and professional. While the drinks menu was loaded with tropical cocktails, an impressive rum selection, and a decent assortment of local craft beers, the food menu was somewhat limited. And, the bar had happy hour TU-FR 4pm-6pm. Plus, I always preferred to support small local mom & pop businesses. I found complete value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $75.00 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 5.0 STARS

    Wow! We came for…read moretheir new Gatsby tea service and it did not disappoint. The ambiance is gorgeous and on point. We started with The Gatsby Effect drink which came in beautiful glasses and a tower that drips butterfly pea tea gin into your glass, changing the color of your drink. There's only one tower option with dinner. It comes with an entire 1 oz container of caviar with crumb fresh, chicken nuggets with crown fresh smoked trout caviar and chives, spicy ahi tuna wonton chip, mini lobster rolls, kettle chips, shrimp cocktail shooters, wagyu sliders, and chicken Caesar salad skewers. Nothing disappointed! Everything was high quality. Shrimp was plump n meaty. The service was great! Our waitress was very nice and checked up on us often. This was a great meal, great service, and great price! I would definitely come back

    Down the Rabbit Hole at STORY -- Anaheim Hills…read more If you've ever wanted to fall straight into Wonderland, STORY in Anaheim Hills is your rabbit hole. From the moment I walked in, I was enchanted -- plush tufted velvet booths in dreamy blues, cascading candlestick chandeliers, walls lined with vintage books, and the most whimsical tablescapes I've ever seen. A teapot-and-teacup candelabra dripping with flowers and pocket watches greeted us like something straight off the Mad Hatter's table. Curiosity encouraged, reality optional, indeed. Half the fun was the crowd -- patrons in their finest hats and full Wonderland regalia, everyone leaning into the magic. The black-and-white spiral placemats and mismatched rose-painted china made every corner Instagram gold. We did the **Mad Hatter's Tea ($40 per guest)**, and it delivered both on theme and on flavor. The presentation arrives on a gleaming gold three-tiered stand, and there's a delightful Asian-fusion twist woven through the classic high-tea lineup: - **Goat & feta cheese pinwheels** -- pink whipped goat cheese with roasted beet purée, Genoa salami, and arugula in a spinach tortilla, finished with balsamic and honey drizzle. As pretty as they were tasty. - **Tea sandwiches** -- delicate chicken salad, egg salad, ham & dijon, and cucumber & cream cheese. - **Mozzarella, cantaloupe & prosciutto skewers** -- fresh and light. - **Freshly baked scones, danishes, and buttermilk biscuits** with whipped honey butter and strawberry jam -- warm, flaky, and exactly what high tea should be. - A sizzling **garlic shrimp skillet** with charred lemon and toasted bread that we added on -- savory and satisfying. And the theatrical touches! Each guest gets a **Tea Forté** selection (the Green Mango Peach and White Ginger Pear were lovely), a glass of sparkling wine, and a darling little **"Drink Me" potion bottle** to share -- a perfect Wonderland flourish. STORY is more than a meal; it's an experience. Whether you're celebrating, planning a girls' day, or just want to escape into something beautiful, put on your favorite hat and come play. We'll absolutely be back.

    We came for a late breakfast on a weekday morning. This cool diner is located at the Orange…read moreMetrolink station, across from the Hilbert Museum. Both exterior and interior look like a 1930s train station. We sat in a booth and enjoyed great food and quintessential service. I ordered the Irish French Toast. This was in the top tier of French Toasts I've ever had. The thick, battered Texas Toast had a delicate interior with a bit of powdered sugar on top. The two large pieces were surrounded by banana slices. The syrup was a house-made Jameson Irish Whiskey Sauce. Incredible. I was in breakfast nirvana from the first bite. This dish came with a side of eggs and choice of meat (I went with scrambled eggs and bacon), both of which were excellent tho nothing fancy. I also swiped a beignet from my dining companion's plate. This fat pastry was the best beignet I've ever had, so pillowy soft! Come here for a great meal surrounded by a cool, train-themed atmosphere.

    The outside is pretty but inside is prettier. It did have a distinct smell, wasn't all that…read morepleasant but other than that, everything else was amazing. Our server was Joe. He made us feel welcomed as it was our first time coming here. By we I mean my self and three friends as well. He took our orders mentally. That was impressive! And got every order correct. He knew his menu items. I ordered a hot coffee (refills available) and the garden omelette. Instead of their bakery it's chi ie of beignets or a muffin, I opted for sourdough toast. Delicious! I took some leftovers home. For what I paid for it, I think it was reasonably priced. We did come for breakfast. Around this time it's not overly packed and we came on memorial weekend. As we headed out close to noon, lunch hour is where people will begin to pour in. We saw trains pass by periodically but it wasn't bothersome. I can't wait to come back.

My husband has a wheat allergy and she was so sweet to help with accommodating him as well as offering tasting when trying to decide between seltzer or a cider. Coctails and Food were A++ I will dream about their Tomato Addiction until i have it again! Bursting with flavors, sourdough was fresh and had the right amount of crunch. Melty brie and the garlicy tomatoes married together perfectly. Will be returning for that alone! Santa Ana Winds was yummy with the perfect amount of coconutty flavor. Nightbloom had a beautiful presentation with a very unique flavor, so delish!!

The only downside is parking can be a little difficult during lunch time. One of the things I like about this place is when you walk through the door you already have a warm and fuzzy feeling. Almost like you're going into someone else's home for a meal. Lots of wood. Lots of dim lining. The place is very upscale without feeling stuffy. If you are going there for lunch, I highly recommend you get the burger off the menu. I am not kidding. It is one of the best tasting hamburgers I've had in a very long time. They cook it perfectly and their french fries are seasoned to perfection. Wait staff is top-notch, they definitely take care of your table while not hovering over you. One thing of note, they have great iced tea. Bottom line? If you are in town and looking for a good lunch that won't break the bank, I highly recommend public legacy, and make sure you get the burger!

    I've been wanting to come here forever after hearing so many great things and didn't realize how…read morehard it was to get reservations. Had reservations for a party of four (made via online) and was seated right away. Ambiance is dark and intimate but seating was enough to feel like you had room. Drinks were delicious and strong and service was great and quick. You are limited to eating and drinking within a certain time frame but it's not bad as the servers are on it. Drinks 10/10 and food 10/10. I'm still craving their burger, one of the best ones I have had, I can't even compare it to anywhere else. Bathrooms are located outside of the speakeasy.

    Been wanting to try this place ever since it opened and finally got the chance to do so…read more Located at the packing district, expect to park hella far away or prepare to valet. Not sure if reservations are required, but this speakeasy is pretty tiny so I can't imagine it can accommodate walk ins. We had a reservation for 8pm on a Friday night. The door is very well hidden, I thought it'd be in a basement around the corner or something. The space is really small, so big groups are not advised. I had the niña fresa, a strawberries and creme type drink. Delicious! If you like sweet drinks, otherwise do not get it. I had the Saturn afterwards. Still a little sweet, but mostly sour. The server came by to say that we only had 25 min left, so we hurriedly ordered a last drink. But when he delivered it, it magically became 5 min! I chugged my drink and was ushered out the door. Overall it was pretty nice but I didn't enjoy having to rush at the very end.

The best part of Strong Water is the immersive experience you feel sitting inside. We sat in the Captain's quarters which was an intimate spot for great conversation. Our waiter was very friendly and gave plenty of options. We opted for the Crispy Tuna Appetizer which unfortunately was not good at all. The tuna and toppings were okay but the crispy rice tasted like fried fair food almost with the texture of a rice cake. Hopefully, their other dishes are better. For drinks, the waiter helped select the Banana Batida for me which was very lovely! I love how customized the recommendations were. My partner ordered a rum drink which he enjoyed as well. We finished off with a brownie dessert. I really enjoyed the passion fruit puree and kiwi topping. The brownie tasted good but was very dense which isn't my preference. Overall, would recommend. Prioritize the drinks over the food in my opinion
