If you only have one drink, make sure it's the Fade to Black--it's my personal go-to and definitely worth trying. For food, I usually gravitate toward their flatbreads, but you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. What really sets The Peel apart, though, is the service. Alan has always been incredibly helpful, friendly, and accommodating, and the overall service is consistently outstanding. It's a great place for happy hour after work, getting together with friends, or hosting events. I've had a few events there myself and continue to go back--and that says a lot. Highly recommend The Peel!

It's a beautiful location with lots of windows and a nice outside view. As for the food, it's hotel food I feel like. May be good but over priced. It wasn't my pick so I came for the company. We sat in the back area which can accommodate large groups. Our server was good. They don't have lattes or speciality coffee drinks but you can get it from the coffee bar in the lobby and bring it in. I didn't get end up getting anything from here. My friends who got food said it was good. I just couldn't justify paying $22 for breakfast food. i guess if you are staying at the hotel, it would be good to try. However I don't need to come back.

The space has a Harry Potter theme with spooky decorations, creating a unique and intimate atmosphere. They offer a mix of classic tiki drinks and specialty cocktails. My favorites were the Philosopher's Stone Fruit and Eater of Death #2. Both drinks were creative, unique, and fun to try! We loved the cocktails and would recommend checking this place out!

The Blind Rabbit is no doubt a very neat place and definitely an experience, but the reason for my…read moreone star is because my friend and I were treated absolutely terribly by one of the bartenders. We were there on Sunday, October 3rd around 3pm. We asked who the owners were because we were really impressed with the place and thought they might be the same owners as another location we had visited. There was absolutely no bad intention behind the question. The male bartender told us that no one name drops anymore. I understood what he was saying and was more than willing to move on. But then I asked him if the bar offered whiskey sours and he responded, "You really don't know what you're doing here and what you want." I was honestly so taken back by that comment. I don't normally stay quiet when someone speaks to me disrespectfully, but I was so caught off guard that I didn't even know what to say. Before that, he had also yelled out to the host that she didn't need to worry because we didn't know the owners and that she could relax. The whole interaction was completely unnecessary and made us feel very uncomfortable. We came in wanting to enjoy the atmosphere and have a good time. Instead, we left feeling disrespected and uncomfortable. There is a way to speak to customers, even if you feel they are asking questions you don't like. We did nothing to deserve that kind of attitude. The Blind Rabbit may be a great place, but unfortunately, the way we were treated by this bartender completely ruined the experience for us. Customer service matters, and unfortunately, ours was extremely disappointing.

It is not open to public. It gives you a rest from the busy park activities (and all the walking) to unwind in the cozy atmosphere. 1901 has many amazing cocktails. I can always try something new. Their Pear Martini is great. Sometimes I ask for something off the menu. The lavender drop (ask for less sweet) was nice. They also have light bite appetizers so that you don't get hungry. The dishes are similar to Carthay Circle. If Walt's and Lillian's iconic director's chairs at the bar were available, definitely try to sit there (or at least take a picture there). It's my favorite cute spot there. Cast members are nice and friendly. There's a merchandise cabinet with 1901 branded items when you enter. It would be a great idea to bring home some souvenirs from this exclusive experience. Let's talk about the rules. The rules are the same as Club 33. No video allowed. Pictures allowed for yourself and your party only - don't take pictures of other guests because of privacy reason. No pictures allowed inside the bathroom. If you ever have an opportunity to go to 1901, please go by all means!

Her warmth, genuine conversation, and generosity made us feel so welcome as tiki newbies just finding our sea legs. I had the Three Dots and a Dash and Erica's Velvet Banana, while my partner had a Lapu Lapu and a Starward Swizzle. We each tried a Snaquiri, too- and several of these ended up being some of our favorite drinks of the entire trip! Erica sent us off with amazing memories, recommendations, and what was essentially an itinerary and syllabus for our Southern California tiki adventure. We're so grateful for her enthusiasm and willingness to share her love and insight. The only downside was that Strong Water set the bar ridiculously high- it ended up being our best experience of the entire trip O_o If you're anywhere near Anaheim, Strong Water is an absolute must. We cannot recommend it highly enough!

The service was outstanding--attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. What makes this place special is that there's no traditional cocktail menu.

Do not sleep on the Tuesday Carnitas & Margaritas…read more If you're looking for a relaxed spot with great ambiance to catch up with a friend, this hidden gem is it. I visited around 4 PM on a Tuesday, sat right at the bar, and enjoyed the peaceful, welcoming vibe. My server Axle, was fantastic! He guided me through the menu and pointed me straight toward the carnitas tacos and I'm so glad he did. The Carnitas Tacos: I'm always cautious ordering carnitas because they can easily end up greasy, but these were perfection. Crispy, flavorful, and incredibly well-executed. They don't serve them with a lime wedge, but honestly, it isn't necessary at all because the tang from the pickled onions provides all the zesty brightness the dish needs. The Margarita: Beautiful presentation and expertly balanced. You get a nice taste of tequila without it tasting overly harsh or alcoholic. Very smooth and deceptively easy to drink! Excellent recommendations from Axle, amazing food, and a great atmosphere overall. Highly recommended!

I've waited months to leave this review only because the waiter was sooooo egregiously rude to me…read moreand my friend who came to eat here that I was in shock at first. We walked in around 3-4pm on a Tuesday- place was empty... There wasn't a soul inside. There was a bar tender cleaning glasses and he looks up and says "you guys looking for a place to sit?" I instantly responded "No, we're looking for lunch is this place open?" He seemed so bothered by us which was the second red flag after his lil "looking to sit down" comment. He proceeded to sit us down at the farthest corner from the door. We ordered our drinks. And when the waiter brought my friends coke, it looked so flat it almost looked like ice tea from 10 feet away. It was so obvious that it had no carbonation. I made a joke about it and we laughed. There wasn't a single bubble of carbonation in the entire glass, it was so bad. We joked and laughed about it when the waiter came back my friend said to him " I think this is the flattest coke I've ever been served" in a joking manner (it literally looked like ice tea) the waiters reaction was sooooo rude, he rolled his eyes, said something to my friend in a snarky tone which I didn't really hear but the way he grabbed the drink and walked away was really unnecessary and overly aggressive He was so bothered by him serving us a flat Coke? I didnt understand why he took that snarky attitude but my friend works as a waiter so his solution was to throw money at the waiter in hopes that he would stop treating us like we were 2 homeless dudes in a soup kitchen. When he brought the drink (as an olive brand and so he wouldn't spit in our food )my friend handed him a 20$... every time he came to our table my friend would hand him 20$ in cash and apologize. He came at least 3-4 times to check on us but I was already no feeling his vibe. My friend tipped him significantly more than what our bill even was. I was upset by that but my friend said it's a server/waiter thing. So if someone treats you poorly you throw money at them? I don't get the logic But regardless... There's a reason why nobody was here at this business during lunch. Food was mid. Nothing special. Service was bad, confrontational and just over the top sassy for no reason. I don't recommend I wouldn't come here even if it was free!

Anepalco has been a fixture in Orange for quite a while, but this was my first visit since they…read morerefreshed the space. The added greenery and updated aesthetic give it a different feel now. For a moment, you forget you're sitting in Orange County. It feels more like a restaurant you'd stumble across in Mexico City than one tucked along Main Street. The premium tacos are the kind of thing that make conversation stop for a minute. Rich, deeply flavored meats piled onto a tortilla with beans, salsa, and cilantro. Messy and satisfying. The green sauce chilaquiles are outstanding. Bright, tangy, and packed with flavor, topped with eggs that turn the whole thing into something greater than the sum of its parts. The guava French toast is pure excess in the best possible way. Sweet, sticky, indulgent, and completely worth ordering. The only disappointment was the Café de Olla. It never quite found the warmth, spice, or depth that makes the drink special. Still, this is a kitchen that knows what it's doing. Come hungry, expect to spend a little money, and leave with no regrets.
