Chicken waffle with slaw
Van G.

Not a fan, sorry. So far out of everything that I tried only one dish here is actually good - fried chicken ranch salad. That's it. Breakfast burritos are tiny and terrible, other fried chicken dishes are too small for lunch and have a hefty aftertaste. I think the problem is with the oil they use for deep frying. It just a very low quality kind the causes everything off the grill and deep fryer taste exactly the same with heavy, nasty aftertaste. Yes, the salad I praised has the same side flavor too but the greens mitigate it just a bit. There are two things that Bruxie could benefit from to become a very enjoyable lunch place: Swap the oil and increase portion sizes. My coworkers and I often exclude Bruxbie off the lunch list because the portion sizes are way too small. No one's willing to pay $35 for lunch to get two of "something".

THE ORIGINAL
Georguna R.

On our way to a concert inside the Honda Center and decided to stop by for a quick bite and this place definitely was worth it!! The crispyness of the chicken and tots was Amazing !!! The service was fast which was good for us as we're already running a bit late. They offer outside seating with a lot of shade. Looking forward to being back

Love this Bruxie. Parking isn't the best, there's lots of seating and the food is always made fresh. Service is always good staff is friendly. Very busy location, great spot.

free STRAWBERRY LEMONADE

It's outdoor seating it was a nice the music wasn't too loud which I appreciated and the lady at the front was super nice she was constantly checking in on us and making sure we got anything we needed and she even gave us a free strawberry lemonade! The food was also great the brioche bun was really airy and yummy and the loaded fries thing was great too just a tad dry though. Overall great experience and would come back. My pictures kinda suck tho but i was really hungry so i couldnt wait.

Tucked away in beautiful olde town Orange on the corner of Chapman University lies this gem of an eatery. I believe this was the original Bruxie's, opened in 2010, now a chain of several restaurants. Did you know that in 2011 Bruxie's was the second most popular restaurant on Yelp? Cool beans! The menu has changed quite a bit since my prior visits several years ago. Fried chicken and waffle sandwiches are still available but without the numerous variations once present. Instead, more standard burgers and chicken sandwich fare seems to have taken over. My suggestion, stick to the original! My wife and I each upgraded to the Super Cluck. The waffle sandwich was as delicious as I remember, and more than enough for a meal. I think of this restaurant as a food truck on a foundation. We order outdoors and eat outdoors. But that's fine, because - Southern California. A great little corner to people watch. Fun place! Recommended, especially for those who wish to take a break from the nearby manic Mouse mayhem.

KID'S BRUXIE WAFFLE
Breanna L.

We tried Bruxie for breakfast & overall it was a mixed experience for us. The original chicken & waffle sandwich looked really good & had great flavor but for the price it just didn't feel very filling or worth it. I enjoyed it taste wise but I expected more portion wise. My husband also wasn't a fan of the sandwich because the waffle got pretty soggy from the coleslaw & sauce which made it a bit hard to enjoy. On the positive side my toddler really enjoyed the kids waffles with strawberries & whipped cream. I tried a bite as well & they were actually really good. Overall, it wasn't a bad experience but for the price point it's probably not something we'd order again unless we were specifically craving it.

I've had Bruxie's in the past but this most recent time I feel like the portion size has just gotten significantly smaller. Food was good, don't get me wrong, but it was just... smaller. Anyways, decent amount of seating. Parking is mostly street parking. Service was good.

My kids love their meal
Kassandra R.

This place is the best! I first came here when I was in high school about 15 years ago, and I recently started coming back. The vibe is still amazing, and the food has always been fresh and delicious--it always hits the spot. Ruben provides outstanding service, hands down. Berlin was also fantastic. They are both welcoming, respectful, and make every visit a great experience. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food and excellent customer service! To top it off my children really enjoy eating here as well.

The kickin
Grace Z.

This was our first time at Bruxie after my nephew brought us takeout and got us craving their chicken. When we got here, there were so many delicious options on the menu that I couldn't decide what to order! I originally ordered the Original, but then I saw another guest enjoying the Chicken & Waffles and immediately changed my mind. I thought changing my order would be a hassle, but Melissa and Tory were so kind, patient, and accommodating. They happily updated my order without making me feel like I was inconveniencing them, and their friendly service made the experience even better. The food was absolutely delicious, and the outstanding customer service really stood out. Thank you, Melissa and Tory, for your kindness and patience. We'll definitely be back. Easy 5 stars!

The best waffles near Chapman!!! You guys should all come try it!!!!!! My little late-night diner.

Clean restroom
Cara L.

5/5 Stars for food and service! First time visiting and it was everything I hoped for and more. The waffle is an absolute must-try--light, fluffy, and not too sweet. The chicken flavor and spice profile were amazing, with the only slight downside being that the batter fell away from the meat a bit. The dining area tables were a little sticky, but the stellar service totally overshadowed that. Love that they have a clean restroom as well--for a street spot like this, I was pleasantly surprised! The staff is wonderfully welcoming, and the fact that they offered my puppy a pup cup won us over completely. A really pleasant first experience!

I'm from NorCal, but I've been here before many many years ago, but this review will be for last week. I was in town for a wedding and was hungry for some lunch stuck in the hotel. I was scrolling DoorDash and saw Bruxie and all the good memories of fried chicken came back to me. I didn't want anything too heavy, cause again, wedding so I elected for the chicken tenders and fries. OMG the hot spicy tenders was soooo crispy and juicy with a hint of spice that stays on your lips. I dunked it in their house made ranch with fries on the side. Perfection. The chicken was legit the juiciest tenders I probably ever had. I gotta try some of the other items next time.

Red lemonade
Vibe B.

Me and my gf were served the best and sweetest red lemonade here at Bruxies for free to try definitely recommend to try it here along with the other delicious food and drinks to order here within the orange circle!

Going out on a limb and guessing no gluten free anything?

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.

Which Bruxie can I still get the pastrami waffle sandwich?

The Orange location is back open and has the Hot Pastrami and Swiss on the menu. Such a great sandwich.

Hi is the dining area open, or just take out? Thanks.

As of 6/26 they are closed. All locations are temporarily closed per their website.

Is this location still close?

As of 6/26 they are closed. All locations are temporarily closed per their website.

Can you buy a single waffle on the side if you order the chicken strip meal?

Yes

Do they still have the specials on Wednesdays?

Yes they do!! I follow Bruxie on Facebook, and they always post the specials. The most recent one is $5 4-piece tenders.

Do they serve the full menu during breakfast hours?

Yes, I believe they serve breakfast all day long.

Do they still serve the buffalo blue? I don't see it on their online menu.

No they don't because they took off the cheese from menu

Is this place vegan friendly?

Not really, the batter contains milk and eggs (assuming they use their "bruxmix" brand).

Do they accommodate for peanut allergy? update: thank you for all the answers! really enjoyed the…

Its hours of operation are convenient, making it a great option for anything from an early lunch to an evening family meal. Although the restaurant is small, it is comfortable When ordering at the counter, the staff is always friendly and welcoming. My go-to favorite is the Soy Garlic Wings, featuring a crispy outer coating and juicy, tender meat inside. The traditional Asian soy flavor is complemented by a sticky glaze that strikes a satisfying balance of sweet and salty, making every bite delicious. I've also sampled many other popular items from their extensive menu. The selection goes well beyond what you might expect from a typical chicken restaurant, offering an abundant variety of flavorful choices to suit different tastes. Everything I've tried has been fresh, flavorful, and served at just the right temperature. bb.q Chicken Tustin consistently exceeds my expectations for a fast-casual restaurant, making it a place I'm happy to return to time and time again.

I regret not doing that the first time I ordered here. You can let them know your pick-up time and it's steaming hot and crispy when you pick it up. Catering orders come with pickled radish, and upon request ketchup and disposable chopsticks. I was introduced to bb.q Chicken at a party and each time I've brought it to a party or potluck people always ask where I get it and I always say the Tustin location is the best! The staff are friendly on the phone and in person. They greet you with a smile. They're helpful. The chicken is always freshly made to order. And they're always on time with your pickup time. Plus it smells amazing the moment you open the door! The wings are meaty and flavorful and can be enjoyed by adults and children, old and young. Diverse groups enjoy the Korean inspired flavors and no one can just have one. Plus I've never had any leftovers.

The important thing: the burger was really good. And I'll add that the fries were also good…read more First time here. We arrived on a Saturday around 2pm and it was empty. Doors wide open so I knew there wouldn't be a/c running during this painful heat wave and I was right. It was hot in there. No one at the counter, so we awkwardly wait for about 4 or 5 minutes that felt a lot longer. Someone pops out, no greeting, like we interrupted them (maybe we did) and we order. I got a grilled cheese and my friend got the burger. He got the combo. When the dude asked if I wanted a drink, I said just a cup for water. He hesitated, then the look on his face looked like he was mad about it. We pay, my friend doesn't leave a tip on the screen because I wanted to tip in cash. And it took forever to get the receipt to the point of my friend saying "it's cool, don't need it". This dude seemed so annoyed by us. He didn't give us our cups so we sat down. He starts making the food. I was like, he's waiting to give us our cups so we get less refills since we only got one soda (just me overthinking, who really knows). When the food was ready, he brings it out to us, which was nice. My friend said, oh our drinks! And stands up. The guy points to the cups next to the register so apparently we were supposed to grab our own cups. The water from the soda fountain was good, didn't have that tap taste. That's a plus. We didn't share the soda, which I felt we were silently being accused of doing. The fries are hot and fresh and were really good. The grilled cheese was nothing special, smashed kinda flat so not super cheesy and pretty much like one your babysitter makes you at home. But that's a good thing so no complaint. My friend said the burger was really good, and the thousand island style sauce was superb- he said it tasted homemade and had a nice kick and took the burger to a higher level. Anyway, it was just an annoying experience that would have been a lot better if the guy showed any sense of friendliness and if he simply said "go ahead and grab your cups". Will I come back? No idea. Maybe not during a heat wave. I'd like to try the burger myself.
