I really enjoy eating here. Bartenders are really nice and food is excellent! I love the wings and tried new flavor, adobo sause was great! The shrimp tacos are always good and come in 3 on each plate. All the food I tried is always good. Beers are super cold with temp on wall. Place has tons of seating and is always clean. Nice stop if you have a angel or ducks game you are going to! read more

Great Buffalo Wings. Since the closure of Wings n Things in HB, this is my default place for proper hot wings. Well fried and sauced. "Buffalo Style" could be a little hotter, I'll see if they can do that next time. Garlic Fries are outstanding. Fresh chopped garlic and lots of it. Pleasant and attentive servers and quick kitchen even when a Rams or Dodgers game has the place full. More of a sports bar vibe than a restaurant despite their large and interesting menu. read more

E. All of the above Hot girls, great food & service, ice cold beer, wonderful ambiance... read more

The burger was good. Small place but chill vibe. Would return here if I'm ever back in town.

We came here to watch a football game Thursday night, and it was decently packed but we were still able to get a table. There was only one girl working, and she was doing such an amazing job. Despite the place being full and it was only her working by herself, she was attentive, polite, and fast with our drinks. The burger was great, nothing fancy but hits the spot. The ambiance was fun, the crowd was energetic without being rowdy. We would definitely come back here read more

Dannica is absolutely amazing. Food is great and the service is top tier. I highly suggest this place

Always a great place to watch football on Sundays! Found this place one day looking for a spot to watch the early slate of games and we ended up staying all day. Great food, great bar staff, great patrons. Overall a great dive bar spot to catch the games! read more

Love the ambience and the good food. And the staff.... Are very nice. Always a fun crowd that seems like a cheers or local hangout. After work crew or watching a game is a little bit better here. Not posh. A perfect "dive" that is not a dive at all. read more

Great lunch menu with fun gals, Hannah & Jacqueline, bring the snarky comedy and the burgers slap, hot dogs are all beef with great fries & chips. Take your boys for a fun lunch in Orange, hard to find but worth the search! read more

Natalie is our favorite bartender she is always a delight and takes good care of everyone

Stopped by on the way to the Angel game and the place was packed. Figured the service would be rough but was pleasantly surprised but the way we were welcomed. Super attentive and friendly drivers. Had a drink in front of us in less than a minute and never waited for a reload. Sarah was exceptional and was shocked to learn she was new to the bar. She navigated the bar like a seasoned professional and was as friendly as they come. read more

Avoid at all cost. A place pretending to be a sports bar. If you like Prince videos during a playoff game or a CFP game. Go.

Stopped into the Dawg yesterday evening for a little bit. Great food as always, and the service from Natalie was amazing. Great talks and laughs. She's so good about making sure everyone at the bar is attended to and taken care of. Even on the busiest days (usually game days), Natalie kicks ass. It's my favorite bar to go to for good food, good atmosphere, and great laughs. Lots of TVs, great music. Excellent time. Highly recommend! read more

Come here to casually hang with your buddies. It's kind of a more grungy sports bar that's kind of divy. Music is very loud so you gotta almost yell to talk to each other, waitress got my order wrong (probably bc of that), food was unremarkable. Dirty totes were as stated and nothing too special except that it was a lot smaller than I expected. Wings were actually not bad and had a lot of fun twang to them. Some could argue that the flavors would be too strong but it was a nice change of pace. Food: 6/10 Service: 5/10 Atmosphere: 5/10 read more

Been wanting to come here for a while. Came today after long day and ordered a michelada. The beer nice and cold. There were 2 ladies working and were very pleasant and have amazing customer service. One of the bartenders recommended Antonio burger and it was one of the best burgers I've had. Such a great ambiance. Will come back read more

Great Jalapeno Burger, the potato salad is awesome, Sal the chef is great. Friendly people and the bartender, Jen is very nice. They have a great selection of music, they Rock. And they have Coors banquet on Tap too. read more

I've been here a handful of times over the past few years. Stopped for lunch after a 2 hour rock climbing gym workout. I ate the chicken salad. It was good, not great, but for pub fare it was solid. Washed it down with a soda. Normally I would have ordered a beer, their tap offerings are good and they have a large digital temperature gauge behind the bar showing the current tap temperature which is usually around 28 degrees. The music was all country and a little loud for mid afternoon in my opinion. I had a hard time hearing the server when she came to take my order. I'll be back. read more

Great place. Loud - but, food was good. Busy for a Thursday lunch time. Neighborhood place in an industrial area.

I lived in Orange for 15 months and never even heard of Salty Dawg until bartender Hannah asked me to see her! oh my gosh, this place is awesome! Food were amazing (great chef), service was awesome. Hannah made sure to check on me if im dping OK and checked how my food was. They are on top of things! Service was top notch. I must say the ambiance is awesome too... this dive is excellent to hang out with good people... music is not too loud and TVs are great. Thanks Hannah for the recommendation !!! read more

I ordered a veggie burger from this place. I am trying veggie burgers in every location I can in the city of Orange i'm going to go back and possibly write my reviews on the different other sites since I did write them.Although it's been a while, so it won't be as clear as this one was. This was very good. It was a black bean veggie patty and I would rate this nine and a half to ten. Which is one of the top ratings? I've ever given a burger the best I ever rated was norms, which was a ten and all the other ones went usually nine and below. It was actually very good including the french fries. I had never even known much about this place. And I have lived in orange now for fifty six years almost. Well I don't think it's been around that long. But it's been around a while, and I'd never seen it. But it's in a rather remote hidden area where you would not see it unless you heard of it. It is off Katella, but you can't really see it since it's in a bit of an industrial area where you would think warehouses would be. This is my impression anyway, but it's a very nice place. Very small and very cozy for me being in there, one time. Well I was in there two times technically since I went out to the car to get a tip for the young lady and brought it back. So I would suggest trying this place. read more

We used to do our fantasy draft at the Tilted Kilt and had to scramble when it closed down. The Salty Dawg ended up being the perfect place for our draft, with plenty of space and a TV to connect our laptop to. Throw in the great food and drinks all wrapped in the best service around (thanks Dannica!), this place will be a mainstay for us! read more

#1 - is the great service provided by the bartenders. I have never had bad service at the Salty. #2 - the food is really good. Great burgers, cajun fries and specials. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. #3 - always a chill crowd, jukebox read more

Nice clean bar with cold beer. Decent service. They had UFC prelims on. Was expecting bikinis but got jean pants. Still a decent place.

The service is outstanding. Food is well beyond what you would expect for bar food. I have had most of the menu items and not a single item has been a disappointment, they have all been great. The jutebox is a nice touch but the multiple TVs make it great if you enjoy watching sports. read more

Great place to watch any sports events the food is amazing and the beer is super cold and the staff always making sure you are having a great time read more

Great food! Best service by Natalie she took care of me and my coworkers! Highly recommend this place all the plates are real good and the atmosphere is awesome! read more

joling was very attentive and very nice. she was very nice to me and she smile was very nice

Horrible service, took forever for drinks. Natalie wouldn't let us put our food order she kept walking away. When we finally got her to take our order we sat for another 20 mins no food. Then we saw our food, but she was eating it and dropped it off to her friend that ordered after us. We asked to close out, she forgot.... I went to the counter noticed the checks are not itemized so asked her if she charged us for food, she said she gave us fries... she never did. She gave me a new bill without fries, I signed it and left but she charged my card for a bill without fries food. Overall bad experience. read more

Natalie and Lauren are amazing. I've been going here for 10 + years and N & L are the best!!! No matter how busy it is these two are always on top of it. read more

Great spot! Me and the boys hit this up all the time. Food is delicious just like the brews and food. Also, love that the owner doesn't take no sh*t from people on here trying to bring it down. This place is awesome and the employees are awesome and they say great things about the owner so know you're supporting good hardworking people. Have a beer, stop being a Karen and chill out read more

Me and a few colleagues of mine stopped by here for an early lunch while we had some work training nearby. This place offers a large selection of food and drinks. The French dip was really good. Their Cajon fries are pretty tasty as well. Our waitress, Jen, was amazing. She was so attentive, polite and professional. She definitely made the experience even better! I'd definitely return for a drink and meal if I'm in the area again. read more

I really enjoyed this place. Found it on my Apple Maps when I was leaving the movies and I was not disappointed. I got 2 orders of the wings. The lemon pepper and Cajun. The Cajun tasted plain but the lemon pepper was good. The Jukebox was playin good music. The bartender (I want to say Danica) but I can't remember she was a pleasure. A couple Henny on the rocks did the job for me. I do want to come back and try out their burgers next read more

Best bartenders ever! Gloria and Dannica are not only perfect 10's but they are cool as hell! Always ready to give you another cocktail when you're empty! read more
