Sweetest employee ever saw I was dying in the heat and grabbed me a strawberry lemonade that hit the spot! Also, my fellow mac & cheese connoisseur bestie recommended I try this and I have to say...not bad. They told me they could give me avo on the side since I didn't want bacon in my "Any Mac & Cheese" and while I've never tried that combo before this day...don't knock it till you try it! Probably a 4/5? But the service makes it a 5/5 experience for sure. Thanks Bruxie!! read more

Love this place.. Been coming for the angry mac & cheese but sadly, the recipe has changed They got rid of the buffalo in it, which is what made it amazing. Now, it's just a slight cajun mac. Still good (7.5/10) but nothing like before. Not sure if all locations made the change, but I might try the Brea & Costa Mesa & hope they still got the OG buffalo recipe. Bring it back to the menu! No need for the switch read more

The front people were just chopping it up and I felt judged. Ambiance, ofc its outdoor seating but the place felt mid.

My absolute favorite breakfast spot in a quiet beautiful area of downtown Orange. The employees truly seem like they want to be there and enjoy having customers at their establishment. Shay greeted us very kindly and even offered us part of her kitchen treats. We were also approached by another man, making sure we knew what to order and offered suggestions and help if we needed it. This location is truly a hidden gem, especially for a Saturday morning where I'm sure most other locations are packed and loud. read more

Come here for some great chicken sandwiches! I originally wanted to try the honey hot sandwich, but the guy I was ordering from let me know it was the hottest sandwich on the menu, so I opted for the nashville hot sandwich since he gave it a 5/10 for spice level. I'm very grateful to that guy because while the sandwich had a kick, it wasn't that bad and I throughly enjoyed the meal. If it was any spicier it might've hampered the experience a bit. Overall very cool place! Their desserts look really good too, so I'm a little sad I didn't try any of those out. read more

Found this gem on Yelp while searching for a great place to eat during our visit to Anaheim. Shay and Alexcea were fantastic--friendly, attentive, and welcoming. Eric had jokes (all in good fun) about my Dodgers, which made the experience even more enjoyable. GO DODGERS!!!! The service was top-notch, and the food? Absolutely incredible--some of the best I've had in a long time. It reminded me of Chicken and Waffles, but with a creative twist. Bruxie really delivered a memorable experience for my family and I. The patio seating had a trendy, upbeat vibe and everything was spotless. When I think of Anaheim, this place comes to mind--it truly sets the bar. I highly recommend dining here--it's well worth it! read more

Came to the Orange location, we sat at the one table that completely leaned but it was the only one available. Anyways, we got two "holy chicken" Maple glazed chicken, applewood smoked bacon, cheddar, sriracha mayo, sunny-side up egg. It was soooo good, next time I'm going to ask for extra bacon because there was only one piece. We also got the loaded waffle fries but they didn't come until we were completely done with our meal which kinda sucked because we were full and they weren't that great, we'll definitely be back for the holy chicken it was soo good I also had the hot honey sauce they have on the side and drizzled as I pleased. Also got a iced caramel cold brew and they ran out of ice :( the coffee was strong I'm more of a sweeter fan but overall we'll be back read more

I really like the placement of this location. It's in old Orange and you can walk around. Parking is hit or miss. If you go early enough, parking is a breeze, but I can see how it'll be difficult in the afternoon and on. The food is solid. You can expect consistent food, and the chicken is delish. read more

I have been eyeing this place for years now, we have finally stopped in tonight for dinner and I am so upset that we didn't come sooner. This place is delicious and super casual! Service is good, people were sweet but the orders do take some time to come out although they were swamped!! We had the strawberry lemonade and it's free refills when you dine in, super cute outdoor seating too that is perfect for a little night time dinner date. I highly recommend mixing in some water (free fills towards the back too) it is EXTREMELY sweet! I was smacked in the face with the amount of sugar but it did taste good just needed to be watered down slightly to my liking. I ordered the grilled chicken blt with ranch waffle sandwich sans the bacon. It was so evenly balanced with veggies and protein. I absolutely loved it and plan to order again! My husband got the honey hot fried chicken bun sandwich, I seriously can't believe how we have been missing out on this. It was SO GOOD. I'm full right now and wishing I could just have another bite of that sandwich. I'm counting the days until we come back so I can get my own. He ordered it with the spicy tots which were also perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. This place is truly comfort food and a great spot to come late night for a hangout. read more

I love ordering their breakfast burrito with chicken. It's a medium to smaller sized burrito that comes with a tasty chipotle like sauce on the side. This location is outdoors so seating can sometimes be in the sun but there is partial shade. We sat on a two seater table which was loose screwed because when I sat down I almost fell over since the table tipped and leaned to one side. Just be careful with your food and sitting.

Everything is waffles! Everything is cool when you're going to eat... Parking is limited on site but there is plenty of street parking around (well maybe when school isn't in session). It's on the corner across from Chapman University. You can call, order online or in person. Had to order online on Yelp as the kids knocked out (didn't want to interrupt their Piano playlist. Parked nearby while we waited for our order and drove up as soon as it was ready (not as accurate as one would like). They have an area for online pick up orders and servers on hand. Plenty of seating outdoors with shade from the SoCal Sunshine. Tots and nuggets were good (I had to take off the skin for the kids, dad duties). You can order the tots without seasoning (I should've). Wish I could've tried the sandwich right when it was freshly out, but kids go first. The syrup sauce along with the cold slaw and bacon (extra $) made it very flavorful. Maybe next time we'll be able to feast on the bird there. read more

This location is right across from Chapman University and it is outdoors. You order your food at the counter, find a table, and they will call out your name when your food is ready and bring the food directly to you. Wait time wasn't bad, but it wasn't busy at all when I went (Around 9:30am on a Sunday). Waffles were the highlight; Light and airy, with a slight crisp on the outside, but soft on the inside! The burrito was good; they actually put a decent amount of chicken. If you happen to be in the area and are craving chicken & waffles, I think it's worth a try for a quick bite. read more

This is as good as I remember from last year. We went here while on vacation and I had to get my bruxie fix. They don't have one in NorCal (asnofnthis review) so I try to go here when I'm in socal. We went on a rainy/cloudy day, so not much of a crowd, and got 2 tables luckily. We ordered the jumbo tenders, Mac and cheese, fries and every dipping sauce to try them all. Everything was good, but it was a lot of food. I went to a different location last year, but they taste the same. The service was excellent as well and they did get almost all our items (we had a big order) and just had to ask for our soda, which they were kind about. The place itself has decent seating, but had an open air/similar to a patio seating so it was a bit cold as we could feel the wind and rain. I'll go to bruxie again when I get the chance. read more

Established in 2015.

Bruxie opened as a patio stand in Orange County, California in 2010 with one genius idea -- the Fried Chicken & Waffle Sandwich! We started with our recipe for the most perfect, crispy, not-so-sweet waffle. Then, the crunchiest, juiciest, most delicious fried chicken ever. And boom! Awesomeness was born.

Hi Jody- we have some great grilled chicken and a grilled chicken salad you’d love. The team can walk you through the options.

Bruxie still do Wednesday Specials?

Hi. We are trying our best to keep our daily prices as low as possible in the middle of the unprecedented price increases we are seeing from our vendors. In doing so, we are just offering the best prices we can all of the time. Thanks for asking.

What type of oil do you fried the chicken?

Canola oil.

Is any of the fried chicken available without Rosemary?

Hi. Thanks for your question. Sure, you can ask for it to be cooked without the seasoned flour and just regular flour. Due to our marinating process, the chick will still be flavorful but without rosemary.

Hi do you guys deliver to arizona?

Yes if you pay a good sum for the delivery freshness not guaranteed tho hehe

Glad to see them back but is there any reason why they closed for 6 months?

In March of 2020, all Bruxie locations in SoCal closed due to CV-19. In early October 2020, two Bruxie locations reopened: Old Town Orange on Glassell, and Brea on Birch St. As of this report on 11/24/2020, only these two locations have reopened.

The small garden salad was equally underwhelming, consisting of only romaine lettuce and cherry tomatoes with no dressing or even a drizzle of olive oil. I ordered the Eggs Benedict, but they were more like open-faced boiled eggs since the yolks were completely hard instead of runny. The café de olla had a nice flavor, but it was much sweeter than expected. I think it would be better if they served it unsweetened (or lightly sweetened) and let customers adjust the sugar to their own taste. I really wanted to enjoy this place because the ambiance is so charming, but the food just didn't live up to the experience.

Nostalgic Bliss at Bruxie's: A Waffle Wonderland Returning to Bruxie's in Orange, CA was like stepping into a delicious time machine back to my college days. This brunch spot, a longtime favorite, proved that some things only get better with time. I dove straight into the Holy Chicken Sandwich - their Nashville hot chicken waffle creation, amped up with an egg and bacon. It's a beautiful mess of a meal, with the crispy, fiery chicken nestled between golden waffles, drizzled with just the right amount of honey to balance the heat. Each bite was a perfect storm of flavors and textures - crunchy, spicy, sweet, and savory all at once. Fair warning: napkins are your best friend here. To combat the 100-degree weather (and the Nashville heat), I paired my sandwich with a cookies and cream shake. This creamy concoction was the ideal cool-down companion, rich and indulgent without being overly sweet. The tater tots on the side were far from an afterthought. Clearly fresh out of the fryer, they were perfectly crisp on the outside, fluffy inside, and seasoned with a deft hand. They're the kind of tots that make you wonder why you ever settled for the soggy cafeteria version. Bruxie's atmosphere remains as inviting as ever, striking that perfect balance between casual and vibrant that makes it equally suitable for a quick solo brunch or a lively catch-up with friends. The service is definitely noteworthy as the servers are constantly making sure that you are receiving the best treatment with the best food While it may not be an everyday indulgence (unless you're blessed with a superhuman metabolism), Bruxie's continues to deliver a unique and satisfying brunch experience. It's comfort food elevated to an art form, proving that sometimes, the best new experiences are the old favorites revisited. read more

If you find yourself near Old Towne Orange and you aren't stopping at Bruxie, you are seriously missing out. Walking in, you might expect a solid, casual bite, but what you actually get is an absolute masterclass in fried poultry. Let's talk about the star of the show: the fried chicken. It is, without exaggeration, spectacular. Bruxie has completely nailed the holy grail of fried chicken. The outside boasts a flawless, golden-brown breading that is seasoned perfectly with just the right amount of kick and savory depth. It delivers that loud, satisfying crunch with every single bite. But the real magic happens underneath that crust. The chicken is incredibly juicy on the inside, perfectly tender and bursting with flavor, completely avoiding the dry trap that so many other spots fall into. The Verdict on the Waffle Sandwich, While the chicken itself is incredible, the famous waffle sandwich format was just okay for me. Because the waffle is so light, it ended up being a pretty messy experience. Once the honey hit it and it started absorbing the moisture from the slaw, the waffle fell apart quickly. If you want to enjoy their chicken at its absolute best, skipping the sandwich build is the way to go. Instead, stick to the classic chicken and waffles. Honestly, it is easily one of the best plates of chicken and waffles I've had since being in California. I didn't expect that level of quality from the waffle itself when served traditionally--it's remarkably light, crisp, and holds up beautifully when you control the syrup. When you combine that flawless, seasoned crunch of the juicy chicken with the airy perfection of their platter waffles, it's a total home run. I might pass on the sandwich next time, but the classic chicken and waffles is a must-try. read more

Recommended by friends (more so than family). Always great things to say about Bruxie which manages to introduce some novelty into the seemingly static tradition of sandwich making. Not only is the actual "sandwich" different, but so are the flavors. Setting: situated on the very corner of two relatively busy streets, Bruxie gets good publicity and exposure. Literally right across the street from Chapman University, the restaurant was pretty busy. I hesitate when I say restaurant because it's more of a fancy drive through. There is seating but not enough to accommodate everyone there. A friendly employee sauntered around asking if people in line had any questions. Handwritten signs conveyed a "homey" feel. Servers: always served with a smile. They were quick to bring out the food as well as clean off your table. Turnover is the key to profit. Food: We ordered strawberry creme brûlée, smoked salmon, and fried chicken. I don't like sweets but the creme brûlée was spot on. Tasty with just the right amount of crunch from the waffle (right out of the toaster)! The salmon and fried chicken tasted good but was probably a step down from the creme brûlée. The salmon was perfectly salty and the fried chicken wasn't too fried. The only drawback to the food is that the portions are a little small for the price paid. Still, a great dining experience. Drinks: water only. Sorry. Didn't want to unexpectedly taint my taste buds before trying the Bruxie Recommendation: YES! I would definitely come here again. read more

So I have to make somewhat of an embarrassing confession...I attend school cady-corner from this waffle joint and I have boycotted trying this place ever since it opened a couple years ago. Over the past few years, I have seen it transform into a million different restaurants that all FAILED...but not BRUXIE!!! Bruxie proved that this little corner location is not a jinx and can be SUPER profitable. I boycotted this place mainly because I am "chang" (cheap) and I had the crazy idea that I didn't want to pay $7-10 for A WAFFLE, WTF (WHAT THE WAFFLE)!!! But boy, was i wrong about that one! Bruxie is worth every wakin waffln penny! From the friendly customer service, quick turnover of orders to ready-to-eat meals, to the deliciousness of the waffle. WTF!!!! Granted I have only tried the Turkey Club and the Criss Cross Fries Nachos...I haven't been dissapointed yet. Some of my friends who usually get the fried chicken tried my turkey club and almost died! They said they are definitely ordering the turkey club the next time. Tips: -be prepared for a line (i rarely pass by bruxie when there is NO line) - menu specials change all the time, sometimes they run out -parking can be tough if you are not from around the area, it is in a residential area so make sure you don't park in an area that you need a street parking permit -seating is outdoors so be cognitive of the weather, wouldn't want to come when it's raining = SOGGY WAFFLES, eww! read more

Bruxie is a place that brings back that nostalgic feeling of smashing two Eggos together for a quick breakfast on your way to work or class. Finding a good waffle these days can be quite a challenge, so stumbling upon Bruxie is like finding a hidden gem.Expectations from their website and branding might lead you to think it's a cozy cafe, but in reality, it's more of a waffle stand that might have been an old burger joint in the past. With outdoor seating and a walk-up counter, you might have to be a bit strategic to find seating, but the quick service means you won't have to wait too long. What truly sets Bruxie apart is the waffle itself. It strikes the perfect balance of crispy on the outside without being overly crunchy, while maintaining a soft and chewy interior. The Brussels Waffle with butter, sugar, and optional maple syrup is a simple delight that showcases the waffle's perfection. While the Fried Chicken waffle could use a touch more slaw, the generous piece of chicken makes up for it. The variety of options, like the Sun-Dried Tomatoes & Goat Cheese waffle, the Waffle fries (which are like criss-cut fries), and the Apricot & Cream waffle, all manage to impress. Even though it's mostly a walk-up counter with outdoor seating, the delicious waffles alone make Bruxie a must-visit spot. If only it were closer, I'd probably be there quite often, sampling their diverse offerings read more

I have mixed feelings about the meal I had at Bruxie. I liked the service and the staff were very friendly and fast at expediting food orders. The thing I wasn't so sure about was the savory dish I ordered, which was the Smoked Salmon & Dill Cream Cheese Waffle Sandwich. The cucumbers didn't really fit into the sandwich and it really didn't add much to it. I think if the chives were replaced with red onions, it would bring more flavoring to the sandwich itself because it was kind of bland. Bruxie should stick with the classic flavor pairings of smoked salmon, cream cheese, and red onions. Potentially adding some arugula and maybe some bell peppers would give the sandwich more of a flavor profile. With this meal, I had their fresh strawberry lemonade which was okay, it didn't impress me that much. It was on the sour side with some pulp present, so you could tell it was fresh, but it didn't really win me over. I also ordered a sweet dish which was the Seasonal Creme Brulee with fruit. Now this was an awesome waffle sandwich and I think the maple syrup with the powdered sugar really made the dish cohesive and well put together. Overall, I think some things could be improved to make their sandwiches more delectable (as far as the savory goes), but I haven't tried their other sandwiches yet so I cannot speak on behalf of it. But with this meal, it left me with mixed feelings. read more

Came here with a friend on a Sunday morning. I heard about this place from a friend and had to try it when I heard they offer breakfast Waffle sandwiches. The place itself is more like a hole-in-the-wall food stand than a restaurant. When we got there, we found an extremely long line most likely due to how inefficient their order and pick up windows were. So, onto what we ordered. My friend ordered the Prosciutto and Gruyere from the savory section of the menu and the S'mores from the sweet section. The Prosciutto sandwich was mildly flavorful with it's mustard and chives. I'm not the biggest fan of prosciutto, but my friend is and she seemed to really enjoy it. The S'mores sandwich was extremely flavorful with it's chocolate filling spilling out of the sides of the sandwich. The only complaint I have for the S'mores is that the waffle gets soggy pretty fast. I ordered the Smoked Salmon and Dill Cream Cheese since I love bagels and locks. This was pretty much the same thing except the texture of a toasted bagel was replaced by the crisp yet tender texture of their perfectly toasted waffles. The only problem I had with my sandwich is that I'm a man who enjoys quantity and all the sandwiches we ordered were lacking in the quantity department. Regardless, they were all quite delicious. read more

Well, well, well. Let me tell you about my experience at this chicken and waffle restaurant. As an elite Yelp reviewer, I have had my fair share of fried chicken and fluffy waffles, but this place truly exceeded my expectations. First of all, the ambiance was on point. The restaurant had a cozy, southern charm with rustic decor and warm lighting. It felt like I was sitting in my grandma's kitchen, if my grandma was a culinary mastermind. Now, let's talk about the food. Oh, the food. The chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, with just the right amount of seasoning to make my taste buds dance. And the waffles? Let's just say, I never knew a waffle could be so light and fluffy. It was like biting into a cloud, but with the perfect amount of sweetness. I don't know what kind of magic they work in the kitchen, but I'm not complaining. But the real standout of this restaurant was the staff. From the moment I walked in, they made me feel like family. The servers were attentive and friendly, always making sure I had everything I needed. Overall, if you're looking for some next-level chicken and waffles, look no further. This restaurant has got it all - cozy ambiance, mouth-watering food, and the friendliest staff around. Trust me, you won't regret it. read more

Love. Loved it so much, I came back a few hours later with my girlfriend!! This place is a staple to the restaurants in the Orange Circle! It is the Pinks of Orange County. Came here for the first time Sunday morning with boyfriend bear. Ordered their Summer Seasonal Specials: Pruscuitto Hash and Green Eggs and Ham. Oralgasm all the way. Both were equally amazing. We also ordered the Mint Chocolate Shake. Beware. Split this with someone. It is made with soft serve frozen custard and glazed with chocolate around the cup. Super rich and creamy. Second round that day, I ordered the Pulled Pork. It was ehhh. Not a pulled pork kind of gal. The second sandwich we ordered was their third Savory Special- Wild Mushroom. The is the PERFECT dish for vegetarians out there. So freaking delicious I freaking wanted to order a second but I was too freaking stuffed. The owner suggested to add sun-dried tomatoes to it in our next visit. Genius. We also ordered the banana split shake with that meal. Yes, I am fat. I know. Anywhoo, the owner, Kelly or Kelley, is really nice. He came out both times I visited that day and talked to all of the customers waiting in line. He explained the menu and offered great suggestions. GREAT service GREAT food GREAT location!! read more

Putting anything inside of a Waffle, is cheating! It makes everything better! Why have bread (boring!) when you can have your sandwich surrounded by a Waffle?! Everything I had was very good. The best being the Strawberry Crème Brulee, this thing was delicious! It's a special item, not sure if their specials are daily, weekly or monthly. Can't go wrong when you mix fruit and waffles. I also had the Buttermilk Fried Chicken Waffle. The Chicken was fried perfectly and the syrup is great with it. It costs extra, but it's recommended. I just wish I would have seen the hot sauce before I finished it, it would have been a great addition. I also tried the Braised Rib Waffle. It was very good and loaded with meat. It is also a special item. It comes with waffle fries inside and a bit of Bleu Cheese. I also had the Strawberry soda. It was good, but did not blow me away. Again, another special item. There was a bit a of a line and seating is very limited. The service was extremely friendly. Not sure about the 1 dollar sign on Yelp. I'd say it needs 2. 27 bucks for lunch is kind of high. 2 sandwiches, 1 order of fries and 2 drinks. I guess that rib meat ain't cheap. read more

Met up with my friend to catch up on all things considered. Bruxie is a fast food take out with open air seating located on Glassell, north of the circle in the City of Orange. It was Sunday. Bruxie was packed with a minor waiting line of 6 or more a clear show that this is a very popular niche fast food restaurant, specializing in all fried chicken related. However, the line moved fairly quickly. I had the Buttermilk Fried Chicken salad, quite good and presented unmixed in a large bowl with Romaine, Apple wood Smoked Bacon, Avocado, Egg, Tomato, Cheddar Cheese, Chives & Ranch Dressing. You get your ticket and a waitress delivers your meal to your table in the open air or umbrella seating area. Condiment table is available for plastic utensils, various chili sauces. Lately, I've been into the "Chocula" sauce which is not too spicy hot but has a nice tang. Works well with my salad. Got a side of buttermilk fried chicken steak which I took home for a later dinner snack. Ginger beer was a nice treat, a bit sweet but solved with adding some water..Good to go! All in all, it's a great little hot spot for fried chicken fast food with unique chicken dishes, sides and entrees. read more

Randomly came here today and it was actually my first time. I had no expectations since I heard mixed reviews. I heard this place could get reallly packed though, luckily I caught this place at a good time. Anyways, very fast and good service! but no parking :( resorted to the meters i guess. I got the salmon and dill cream cheese waffle :) it was pretty good. Nothing unique that stood out to me though. Salmon was fresh though, i guess I could give it that one. My friend got the Apple bacon cheddar egg waffle sandwich. It was okay. It tastes better with ketchup and siracha though otherwise, it a little too oily for my taste. however my friend really enjoyed it, i guess she likes oily stuff. Sugar cane soda: way too sweet. the coke itself is already sweet but this just made it taste like im chugging sugar -_- NOW onto dessert: You must get the Creme Brulee dessert!! I normally hate creme brulee but this is something you just have to get even if you're not a dessert person. even if you're too full, it's worth gaining a pound from it. it's not too sweet either but just right amount of sweets! read more

I ate here the other night with a buddy of mine after an alumni event at Chapman University (he is the alumni, not me). We were greeted by Tyler who is kind of like the Maître D' or ambassador for Bruxie. Tyler did a tremendous job making some recommendations. I ended up ordering a 4 piece Nashville hot chicken tenders that come with waffle cut fries and my buddy ordered the regular tenders. Evidently, the girl who took my order thought I ordered a chicken waffle sandwich, so I ended up with the tenders and the waffle sandwich (they gave us the sandwich free of charge because of the mishap). Gold star for Bruxie and Tyler for making that happen. The sandwich and tenders were delicious and I recommend this place to anyone on a strict meal plan/diet if this is going to be your cheat meal. I paid for it the next morning, but it was yummy going down. I'd definitely eat here again if I want some yummy high calorie comfort food. I just took the one star off because my digestive track didn't do so well, but then again maybe I should blame that on genetics and not Bruxie :) read more

Gourmet waffles with toppings and stuffed with things you don't normally think of? Yes, please. I came here with a friend for the first time after all the chatter about fried chicken waffle sandwich. When I got there, I saw they had specials and there was a carolina pulled pork waffle sandwich that I could pass up. My friend got the fried chicken waffle sandwich. We both ate half of each just to see which was better. They were both equally good. The waffle was not soggy (which I was afraid of) and all the ingredients were fresh and delicious. The fried chicken was tender and crispy and was even better with the maple syrup they provided in a small bottle that girls would consider "cute". The pulled pork tasted as if it was slow cooked forever and the tangy coleslaw cut the sweetness offering a great contrast in flavors that balanced very well. Other than that, I definitely want to go back and try some other sandwiches. The waffles weren't dense like some other places and was light and crispy which definitely was enough to hold the sandwich together. Give this place a try! read more

I recently had the pleasure of trying a fantastic chicken sandwich that truly exceeded my expectations. The sandwich featured a perfectly crispy, golden-brown chicken breast that was juicy and flavorful. It was seasoned just right, providing a delightful balance of spices without being overpowering. The bun was another highlight--soft and fresh, it cradled the chicken beautifully without falling apart. Adding to the experience, the sandwich was topped with crisp lettuce, ripe tomatoes, and a tangy mayo sauce that complemented the chicken perfectly. Each bite was a harmonious blend of textures and flavors. What made this sandwich stand out even more was the attention to detail in its presentation. It was served with a side of crispy fries, which were equally delicious, and the overall meal felt satisfying and indulgent. In summary, if you're a fan of chicken sandwiches, this one is a must-try. It's a perfect combination of crunch, flavor, and freshness that leaves you wanting more. Highly recommended! read more

I've been coming to Bruxies for about four years, and I can honestly say they've never disappointed. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and consistently amazing every single time we visit. Their lemonade is absolutely delicious and is something I look forward to every time. What really makes this place stand out, though, is the customer service. Every employee has always been welcoming and kind, but Ruben especially deserves recognition. We've known him for about a year, and he always remembers us, greets us with a smile, and makes us feel genuinely welcome. He treats everyone with respect, checks in on us, and even clears our plates. His hospitality goes above and beyond, and it's one of the reasons we keep coming back. The atmosphere is always clean, comfortable, and inviting, making it a great place to enjoy a meal with family or friends. Between the incredible food, refreshing lemonade, and outstanding customer service, Bruxies continues to be one of our favorite places to eat. Highly recommend! read more

I never thought I'd find a spot that serves up southern-style cuisine in Orange, CA but Bruxie has done just that! As a southern father, I've had my fair share of fried chicken sandwiches but the one at Bruxie is something special. The crispy, golden brown chicken is juicy and flavorful, and the tangy slaw and housemade pickles add the perfect balance of acidity. But what really blew me away was their waffle fries. They're crispy on the outside and soft on the inside and I couldn't stop eating them. I have to admit, I was a bit skeptical when I first walked over to the stand but the atmosphere is casual and welcoming, and the staff is friendly and attentive. I also appreciated that they offered a variety of dipping sauces for the fries, including a spicy ranch that was to die for. I'm not one to get excited over a restaurant, but Bruxie has me singing their praises. If you're in Orange and looking for some delicious southern-style grub, give Bruxie a try. You won't be disappointed. read more

Bruxie has a very special place in my heart and a designated space in my stomach - it's obvious that their food is worthy of a Golden Globe if restaurants had such a thing, with the crispiest freshest fried chicken and hand-crafted ingredients made fresh every day. I swear in college I saw a produce truck parked on that corner delivering fresh fruits and veggies every day. Gourmet fast casual food at its finest. Their employees are friendly, knowledgable, and great at their job. Their cooks have a magical way of creating a meal that fills me up and makes me whole all in one sitting! You don't walk into a place like Bruxie expecting to be blown away by every single item on their menu AND have an employee take the time to ask me how my day is going. And it's amazing how they do it all with the little space they have - if you've ever been, that kitchen is TINY! No wonder people come from far and wide to experience what Bruxie has to offer! read more

It is very rare that I leave a review and even more so when it is a good review. We showed up and even though parking in not plentiful there was a few open spots that were fairly close. As we got up to the place the line was 5-6 people deep but moved fast. Fairly shortly after we arrived someone came out with menus and that is not all, he was very entertaining as well. He suggested the pastrami bruxie which was amazing. The girl at the register was nice nothing special. Me and my co-workers selected a table that had a few o-rings from the sodas of the previous guest. Quickly the Manager Amanda came over to wipe down our table. She was extremely nice and was our second form of entertainment. Amanda wouldn't let me throw away my trash, refill my own water, and even let us try one of there tasty treats.... Something drastic is going to have to happen to keep me from going back again and again. read more

This place is over hyped! I just moved to Orange, and I was looking at places on here to go too. My brother mentioned it to me after I had already found it and he even said he did not like it\ . I walked down there yesterday at about 10:30 - 11:00 and there were already a lot of people there.I was greeted by a guy who worked there, telling me about the menu. Nothing really jumped out to me on the menu besides the salmon. However I did ask the guy between the egg and bacon and the salmon one which he would recommend. He said since it was my first time to go with the egg and bacon, i went with his choice and I was already disappointed once I got it. Yes there was egg but VERY little bacon. It did not really have a flavor and I felt like it was overpriced. If I do go back I will have to try the salmon one. But I think because it's right next to the college that they over hype it too much. read more

My favorite hidden gem restaurant…read more Been going here since they opened. Absolutely love every single dish I've tried. Everything tastes fresh and made with care. The staff is always extremely friendly and attentive. The space is very chill and comfortable, cute booths for 2 or big tables for a larger party. Don't skip their baked goods. The pies are all amazing.

Ordered pickup while our daughter was post-surgery at CHOC. Very middle of the road food-wise but…read moremaybe an off day. However, the lemon blueberry cinnamon roll was delicious. We also had ordered a donut but they didn't have any so they called and offered the cinnamon roll which I thought was very kind. I also ordered 'avocado toast' and a burrito. My husband couldn't decide if the burrito was good or not, lol. The avocado toast was 1 regular slice of bread with a tiny bit of avocado. See picture. Egg was perfectly over easy but the lack of avocado and any seasonings was rough. There's a different location closer to our house and I will give them another chance, but wild avocado toast moment.

CUSTOMER SERVICE - very friendly, nice staff members working that morning. We ordered their amazingly goodlooking cookies and because she said some came out smaller than usual, she gave us an extra one. FOOD - YUM! My fiance and I split the meat lover's breakfast burrito and then ordered side of hashbrown and eggs. Such a perfect amount of food for decent price. Their burritos was delicious and their hashbrowns were crisp. you can't ask for more. Glad we came across this spot and would love to come back!

I even drove from Westminster because I was looking forward to enjoying one of their sandwiches that I hadn't had in a long time. I also ordered an oatmeal raisin cookie, which unfortunately tasted unusually salty. I called to share my feedback about the cookie, and the response I received from Frank was dismissive and unhelpful. He stated that he tastes the cookies every morning and insisted there was nothing wrong with them. There was no offer to replace the item or further address my concern, and the conversation ended abruptly with a brief "have a good day." Overall, I was disappointed by the lack of attentiveness and willingness to engage with a customer concern over what was simply one menu item. Unfortunately, this experience has changed my perception of the restaurant and may affect my decision to return in the future and share the experience of horrible customer service!!

All the sears were outside and weather was perfect that day. I went to order a BLT my mom and I can split. That's what she wanted. However the owner Julian told me the best seller was the chicken pesto panini. He's friendly as he explains how many love it. So I changed it and hoped my mom wasn't disappointed. She wasn't. It was food and perfect with the salad and kettle chips. I throughly enjoyed the service and food. I went back to get a chocolate chip cookie and they ran out. However Julian was kind enough to give me a small scoop of gelato on them because of it. This is a great family owned business with great food and service.

Delicious sandwiches served up fast by super friendly people!…read more I had the Italian and hubby had the lobster melt. We both got the 8 inch size and ended up taking half home to finish later. Fillings were generous, he said the lobster melt was fresh and tasty. My Italian had just the right level of heat from the peppers and I liked the vinaigrette. We both got the Dutch crunch bread because we never pass it up at any deli that has it, and it was perfect! Soft on the inside, and perfectly light and crispy on the outside. (We actually talked about how it had just the right level of crunch- good texture, but not scraping up the roof of your mouth!) Not too busy on a Saturday afternoon, but I can imagine they get quite a crowd for weekday lunches, but they move fast!

Can I give this place 6 stars?! Bread is what sets this place apart by far. The rolls are crispy on…read morethe outside and soft on the inside. Ingredients are super fresh. Staff were very friendly. Food came out quick. Quick service for sure.

Ok, here we go. Let me start with a confession: I hate…read morediners. I hate them with the fiery rage of ten thousand suns. In my experience, diner food is usually tired, dry, uninspired, and about as exciting as eating an anvil. So believe me when I tell you that is not this place. Surrounded by newer, shinier restaurants near CHOC, Victory Diner has some miles on it. Frankly, it's easy to overlook, and I nearly did. What a mistake that would've been. The burgers are good, the fries are good, and the food is gloriously unapologetic comfort food. Imagine you're a parent at CHOC. It's 2 a.m., you're exhausted, worried sick about your child, and you just need to escape the hospital long enough to get your head screwed on straight. You don't need gourmet cuisine. You need something warm, satisfying, and familiar. Victory Diner delivers a hug from Mom on a plate. It's not fancy, and it's not trying to be. It's simply comfort when life is kicking your ass. And sometimes, that's worth more than the fanciest meal in town. Don't let the appearance fool you. You'd be missing something special by passing this place up.

Sooo good! Still need to try more items here but it's one of those on the go which diner spots that…read moresells a bit of everything. It's in the plaza of other great spots too, but i like how this "diner" has a drive thru for convenience. I've tried a few of their breakfast items and the chili cheese fries and everything was good!

I ordered the blackberry iced tea with house made lavender syrup and the turkey pesto. It was delicious, the iced tea was refreshing and one of the best I've ordered in a coffee shop.

I can't speak about their food because I didn't get any but it looks like they have a good array of options. I got an iced vanilla caffe latte. I will say like it was good but it was a little sweeter than I expected and definitely a strong coffee. Which is not bad, but I think maybe I should have stated my preference! The person who took my order was very friendly and prompt. She made my drink quickly too. The area itself is nice. Really great seating and it feels very open. And I liked the music they were playing. I will say for some reason when I was there like around 3:30 PM they opened the doors of the cafe and started cleaning and such. It almost felt like they were closing but I knew they closed later than that so I wasn't sure. Anyway, I still think this is a nice cafe in Orange right across from CHOC if you're waiting for someone.
