This is my absolute favorite KBBQ spot! The sides are delicious, they have incredible fried rice and the ice cream served at the end is the cherry on top!

This is by far one of the best K-BBQ places I've been to. The meat here is consistent, the quality is good and it's seasoned to perfection. This place can get pretty packed, even with that, the service is always good here. Some of the servers have been here for years. We used to live around here and have moved to the IE but will still venture out just to eat here. It can get pretty loud here but it is a family atmosphere and good to bring big groups who can grub! My sisters and I have been long time customers and will continue to come here whenever we crave K-BBQ!

A great friend of mine have been going here for years and I have yet to add my review. Well here it is. BBQ Stop is one of my go to all you can eat Korean bbq spots especially if I'm in the Pomona/Diamond Bar area. Being a creature of habit I normally stick to the brisket, beef belly, and thin sliced pork belly. We order a side of fried rice and steamed egg to complete the meal. Meats are on point and are pretty high quality as they're not tough to eat after cooking. Service is great as their staff is always checking on your burner and asking for your grill to be changed. The ambiance is bit noisy with music playing in the background but isn't as loud where u can't talk. In the last 7 years we've been going here they have been consistent all the time. Definitely worth a try. You won't be disappointed.

We've been coming to BBQ Stop for a while now, and they're always reliable with both quality and service. The meat quality feels premium, and the side dishes are genuinely delicious. There are plenty of tables, and the table sizes are actually pretty spacious, so you never feel cramped. The service is good--there aren't a ton of servers, so there can be a bit of a wait, but the staff are always super nice and sweet. Thank you to Cyrus for taking care of us today! We'll definitely be coming back again.

We came here last minute as a double date with my cousin for Valentine's Day. Pretty much every kbbq spot and long waiting times but the wait time at BBQ Stop was bearable - probably like 15 minutes. This has a pretty good selection of meats. The meat looked pretty good and they were very tasty. The galbi was my favorite. The dipping sauces were decent but our favorite was the galbi or bulgogi sauce. That dipping sauce was one of my favorites. The staff were great despite the hustle and bustle. They were friendly and our grill was changed regularly. Be nice to the staff when they're crazy busy. They're still friendly even though you can tell they're on the verge of crying.

Once again returning to experience amazing customer service and hospitality! Kevin's service was exceptional tonight for my Mami's birthday.

Late Saturday lunch. All the shopping and errands had me just about hangry. This place is a staple and has always been good. Some new items I noticed were the ramen, Onion cilantro salad, tortillas. We get the same meat of brisket, short ribs and marinated beef so didn't notice if there was a new selection of meat. Service was very good and attentive - this was around 330p. Place is always kept up and clean. One of the few places that serve complimentary Thriftys ice cream!

This was a truly memorable experience and the beef tartare was so good. If you're looking for good food, drinks, and a great atmosphere I highly recommend the blind rabbit and will be here again.

Found this place while searching for local cocktail bars close to the Anaheim Convention Center…read more It's located on the lower level of the Anaheim Packing District, which is made up of multiple businesses spread across a few different buildings. The Blind Rabbit is in building B (I think... 2 story building right off the main road). A reservation is highly recommended, as this spot can only hold about 30 people. As I went alone, my reservation was for a bar seat, which was cool as I was able to watch the bartenders make lots of very cool shaken and stirred drinks. This place serves absinthe drinks plus absinthe served the traditional way (cold water on sugar cube into the alcohol). I did not try that, but was tempted. My pineapple old fashioned (Retired Old Man was what Sergio (bartender) told me) was very tasty. The Tamerand Marg with mezcal that I tried next was just okay (should have stuck with the whiskey!). The ambience is great, but it is quite dark inside. Use the light under the bar top to read the menu. There is food available. I tried the crabcake and thoroughly enjoyed it! If you go looking for the entrance, look for the "boxes" stacked against the wall and the black bunny handle (next to a hostess station that may/may not be staffed). Photos were highly discouraged, so I respected their wishes and just enjoyed the moment. I hope you enjoy it too!

We even got dressed up because the vibe online felt fancy and elevated. Unfortunately, the experience was very different in person. The space is extremely small and overcrowded, to the point where you can barely move, let alone order a drink. We squeezed our way toward the back just to find a little breathing room, but it was constant "excuse me" in every direction. With how packed it was, the bartenders seemed to be moving at a slow pace with little sense of urgency, which made getting to the bar nearly impossible. After waiting about 10 minutes without being able to place an order, we ended up leaving. It was disappointing, especially after driving out excited to try the drinks we saw online. The photos make the space feel much bigger and more relaxed than it actually is, which created a very different expectation. Overall, the experience didn't live up to the hype and first impressions fell flat.

What truly made the experience exceptional, though, was the service. The staff was attentive, kind, and incredibly organized. They made sure everything flowed smoothly so I could relax and enjoy every moment. A very special thank you to the general manager, Hugo Cano.

Macallan's has the look of an Irish pub; dark wood, Celtic décor, the whole atmosphere is there…read more But if you're going to lean into Irish identity, the details matter, especially with Guinness. I've watched it poured straight into a regular pint glass with no 45-degree angle and no pause for the proper two-step pour. It comes out flat, with barely any creamy head, which completely changes the texture and experience. Guinness isn't just another draft beer; it needs to settle, and it should be served in a proper tulip or Guinness glass to get that classic presentation. The fix is simple: slow the pour down and train the staff on the traditional method. The pub has the vibe. Now it just needs to respect the pint.

Chapter 4 at Les Amis - Main lounge area

Chapter 4 at Les Amis

(85 reviews)

We've had Chapter 4 on our list for a while. A very positive review from a Yelp friend bumped it to…read morethe top of the list, and we visited recently. It is located in downtown Fullerton, next to the Les Amis Lebanese/Mediterranean restaurant. Look for the entrance on the west side of the building with a red entrance and Chapter 4 projection logo on the sidewalk. You can make a reservation on their website. We walked in and were greeted immediately. Seating options include tall chairs at the bar, low booths along the front wall across from the bar, and various tables in the main lounge area. All of the chairs look very comfortable. We sat in one of the booths across from the bar. It has a great vibe inside with a dark ceiling and walls, and is lit on the dimmer side. There was light lounge/soft jazz music playing when we visited. They also have live jazz music on some nights. A bowl of nuts, water, and menus arrived quickly. They have a great menu of house-curated cocktails, their spins on classic cocktails, and a large list of whiskeys and other spirits. They also have several food items on the menu. They have private liquor lockers available to store personal bottles for members Before I continue, I have to say that JC, one of the owners, who greeted us and was our server all evening, provided outstanding hospitality. While researching their bar menu online, we saw the cloud cocktail which had a very unique presentation with a burning ember cloud-like display. We came for my girlfriend's birthday, and she knew that would be her first drink. Unfortunately when we tried to order it, they were out of the gas for it. We noticed that the physical menu was a little different than the online menu. Apparently they had just changed the menu and had not updated the website yet. She wanted the Dirty Dill which wasn't on the new cocktail menu, but they were still able to make it. Dirty Dill (Gin, Vodka, Lemon, Pickle Juice, Olive Juice, Milk Washed & Clarified, $19). We could smell pickle on the nose, but when we took a sip, it was very boozy with little pickle or olive flavor. We asked if they could add some more pickle juice, and JC brought us a big shot glass of pickle juice so she could adjust it to her liking. She liked it once she added some more pickle juice. I started out with the Cococacaocoladaclara cocktail (Cacao-Infused Rum, Orange Liquor, Pineapple & Lime Juice, Coconut Milk Clarified, $18). This wasn't quite what I was expecting, and I had a hard time picking out the flavors. It was definitely strong and boozy. We were finishing our first round when we spotted JC walking towards our table with a cloud! He managed to find whatever it takes to make the effect, and we were very appreciative. I have seen a lot of presentations, and this was definitely a unique one. The birthday shot was very good, and he said the ingredients were mezcal, lavender, and lemon. Old Fashioneds have been growing on me lately. After the great presentation of the cloud, I had to try the Sinatra Old Fashioned (Jack Daniel's Sinatra Select, one dash of chocolate Bitters, $40). It is served in a rotating crystal glass, lit from underneath, with a clear ice sphere. Again, the presentation was great, and it was the smoothest old fashioned I've ever had. She had her eye on the Tuk Tuk for her second drink (Coconut Fat Washed Rum, Supasawa, Pandan Syrup, Mango Syrup, Rice Garnish, $18). She asked if it was very sweet, and he said that it was indeed quite sweet. Instead, she opted for the Firefox (Vodka, Pomegranate, Lemon, Vanila, Rose Liquor, Cherry Bitters, $18). Once again, this cocktail had a great presentation. It's served in a short, wide glass that sits perfectly on top of a piece of petrified-looking wood. You hold the glass with both hands and sip it like a bowl of soup. It was very balanced and smooth, with a nice tartness and light sweetness. JC stopped by again to check on our second round. A few minutes later he surprised us again, and returned with shot sized versions of the Tuk Tuk to sample. It was definitely on the sweeter side with good coconut and pandan flavor. We probably would have tried a third round, but we had dinner and a drink before coming here. Their menu of house-curated cocktails is impressive, and features many uncommon ingredients. We had a good time, but JC went the extra mile for us all night long and made it a great time. We will definitely return again.

Chapter 4 is a cocktail lounge located in Downtown Fullerton, connected to the Lebanese restaurant,…read moreLes Amis. There's a separate entrance on the side of the building. There are a lot of bars in the area, but Chapter 4 is a touch classier, offering craft cocktails in a smaller, intimate setting. Service is overall very nice. The servers check up on you often and are friendly. The ambiance is moody, and on a cold winter night, feels warm and inviting. For regular patrons, lockers are available to store your personal collection of spirits, so that you may enjoy your favorite brews in the atmosphere of Chapter 4. We visited right in time for their winter seasonal menu. The Candlelight Confession from this menu is delicious, and served with a torched marshmallow. From their signatures, I really enjoyed La Peligrosa, a tequila based cocktail that was floral and refreshing. My drink of choice recently, however, has been a Pornstar Martini. I asked the bartender if he could make one for me, and he just happened to have the ingredients necessary. So he did :) It was really good.  I enjoyed myself so much on my first visit that I invited more of my friends to come the following Friday. There were 7 of us total. It was a tight squeeze, but they were able to fit us all at a table. I'm very grateful to the staff for accommodating us, but I definitely would recommend visiting with a smaller party. There was live music that night with a trumpet player, livening up the air with jazz music. We had Pornstar Martinis again, which were amazing. I also dabbled in their whiskey cocktails as those are their specialty. The High Society was quite the showstopper, arriving at our table topped with a woolen cloud set ablaze. The way the embers danced was nothing short of magic. Removing the cloud revealed a wispy layer of smoke, which was both captivating and added depth to the drink. The rye whiskey was smooth and palatable, with a steady warmth as opposed to a harsh burn and flavored by cherry bitters. I don't usually drink darks, but this was very enjoyable. I also took the opportunity to sample the Démodé, Chapter 4's take on an Old Fashioned, garnished with an orange peel and a Luxardo cherry. Like the High Society, the whiskey was smooth and enjoyable to sip over time.  I love Chapter 4. The drinks are palatable and interesting. The staff is welcoming and kind. The atmosphere is classy, yet laid back and cozy. In a downtown district filled with sports bars and pubs (which can be fun), Chapter 4 is my calm eye of the storm, a place to sit, relax, and enjoy the night with well crafted drinks and conversation.

Stone Groove Stillhouse - The Burger

Stone Groove Stillhouse

(134 reviews)

Fantastic choice during my recent Anaheim visit!…read more I found this cocktail bar/popup kitchen concept on accident while visiting a local brewery. Situated towards the back of a courtyard labeled "Make", Stone Groove Stillhoise is a dark, welcoming room with a long bar, ample tables around the room, and a steel countered kitchen at the back. All their whiskey cocktails are made with their bottles (MGP sourced for now) that have been aged using music (ask one of the bartenders for the story... very cool!). I tried their whiskey flight (American Single Malt (jazz), Bourbon (country), Bourbon (blues), and Rye (classic rock)). The music type listed is what was used to "shape" the tasting notes. Music is played over a cool hi-fi (not too loud), and the ambience is a speak-easy vibe. The food menu is not large, but it works. I had the slider and potato wedges and it hit the spot! They have been open about 10 months (July 2025) and really seem to have it together. If you like whiskey or this type of spot, you MUST try Stone Groove Stillhouse on your next Anaheim visit.

Hands down one of the coolest, most well-executed restaurant and bar concepts I've been to in…read moreOrange County. From the moment you walk in, the vibe immediately reminds me of the listening bars that originated in Japan. It's immersive, intentional, and just cool without trying too hard. The food and cocktails are where this place really separates itself. My fiancé and I will regularly drive over an hour to LA or San Diego for great dining experiences, and usually you have to compromise. Incredible cocktails but average food, or amazing food with a forgettable bar program. This place somehow nails both at an exceptionally high level. I travel quite a bit and have been to some of the world's top cocktail bars and Michelin-starred restaurants, and it honestly blew me away that a spot like this exists locally. The level of detail, creativity, and execution across both the menu and drink program is rare. The service was next level. We sat at the bar and Jimmy took amazing care of us, walking us through everything with real thoughtfulness and passion. We also had the chance to meet Krista, the owner, who was incredibly gracious and welcoming. We went on a Tuesday night and ordered the smoked carrot tacos, wagyu sliders, honey shrimp, and baked Alaska for dessert. Every single dish was outstanding. For drinks, I did the Side A / Side B bourbon tasting, which was such a unique experience. I genuinely couldn't believe how much the flavor profile shifted depending on the music being played while in the barrel. You'll know what I'm talking about when you come here. I also had the clear old fashioned, which was one of the most memorable cocktails I've had in a long time. The experience was so good that we were already texting all of our friends while we were still there. We already booked another visit in a few days with a group just so we can try more of the menu. Everything about this place exceeded expectations. Easily one of the best spots I've been to in Orange County since moving here in 2020. Cannot recommend it enough.
