They made us feel super comfortable and it was so so fun talking to them. I ordered the nina fresa which is their strawberries & cream drink, and WOW it was delicious! I love a fruity sweet drink and that definitely hit the spot. I ordered two!! I don't remember what my friends got but they were good as well. We also got a creme brulee for a birthday and it was delicious and perfectly caramelized. Overall such a great and memorable experience, and definitely one of my favorite speakeasies I've been to!

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.

This was our first visit to this restaurant. The Moroccan-Spiced Chargrilled New Zealand Lamb Chops…read morewere deliciously seasoned and quite tender even though I had them prepared medium-well. The roasted cinnamon apples and cranberries really added a nice flavor to the Caramelized Brussels Sprouts. And unlike many restaurants, the Brussels Sprouts were roasted and not burnt to a crisp! Our server, Shay, was amazing. Shay was attentive, but not overly so. She was very personable and addressed each member of our party by name. She was also very knowledgeable about the food offerings and wine selections. We also got to meet and talk with the owner, Earnest Ross. Earnest has created a very special place for people to mingle and unwind! His restaurant has a very welcoming vibe with great music playing in the background. We will definitely visit California Vintage Wine Bistro the next time we visit SoCal!

I went to this restaurant with a group of five friends after a Juneteenth event at Downtown Disney…read more The vibe was super classy and dimly lit, very elegant. There didn't seem to be a dress code but people were mostly dressed nice. The service was phenomenal. We were greeted by the owner himself and he made sure that we were seated and comfortable and helped us understand the menu and their wine selection. Our server was amazing as well. She was very attentive in taking our order. For food I ordered the crab cakes, the shishito peppers, and the Atlantic salmon with the chimichurri sauce on the side. I substituted the mashed potatoes for French fries because I don't eat dairy. Everything was delicious and a little different. For the shishito peppers usually these are served with a tangy sauce and the shishito peppers are blistered. With this dish the shishito peppers were still blistered but they were served on a sweet mustard sauce. For the salmon that was also delicious, served with vegetables. The French fries were great. The crab cakes were pretty good. Now if you're from Maryland you are not going to like these crab cakes, of course, because you're from crab cake capital, but for California crab cakes they were good. I would definitely come back here. I didn't get to try the wine but next time I will definitely try some of the wine and some additional food dishes.

We sat at the bar, but they also have a lounge area, and the bartender walks around to take orders, which was a really nice touch. They serve the hotel food as well if you're hungry, so it's easy to just relax and stay for a while. Overall, it was a chill spot and the perfect place to wind down after all the Disney chaos.

What a gem. Our party of 4 had the best time enjoying the food and wine at Maison Fox. Knew nothing…read moreabout natural wines but David, our server and sommelier, provided the lowdown of the wine list and steered us in the right direction after listening to our preferences (how he managed to juggle multiple tables and large groups ALONE should also be noted and applauded). The food options are not plentiful but definitely was enough for our group to order every item on the menu and leave feeling more than satisfied (closer to stuffed). David was telling us that they are still in the process for getting permits approved for a true kitchen since Maison Fox was just a wine bar prior to being Benchmark (whose restaurant in Santa Ana is highly recommended). Pretty impressive the chef was able to create these dishes in what essentially is a makeshift kitchen. The space? Chic on the inside, charming and so inviting. I guess the patio area was not dog friendly before but it is now according to David. I'm eager to come back with our pup and enjoy more of their wonderful food and wine. Well done!
