When we entered, the inside felt like we were in the inside of a train, there were various train themed decoration scattered throughout the walls and floors. My girlfriend got the sex in this city cocktail and I opted for the painkiller cocktail. Both were stunning and delicious. Lots of different photo ops for you and your loved ones as well as movies playing behind the bar. We also loved our bartenders, who made our drinks with ease and were knowledgeable in the different drink items. Overall, would definitely visit again!

I had been looking forward to coming to this bar for a long time, so unfortunately, the experience…read morewas extremely disappointing. We arrived about an hour after opening, and the bar already felt completely unprepared. The bartender was eating food at the bar while we were there, and after getting our initial drinks, we were essentially left on our own. She never checked back with us, and not once were we asked if we wanted another drink. For a place I had been excited to finally visit, this was easily one of the worst bar experiences I've ever had. The service was inattentive, the atmosphere felt unprofessional, and the overall experience left a very bad impression. Unfortunately, I won't be coming back.

I ordered the baked Brie ($17) while the rest of my party ordered wine & skewers. Food, ambiance, and service was great for the most part. I do want to mention that they do not allow outside water of any sort inside. I was told to put away my hydroflask because it's a, "violation of liquor license". That gives the assumption that ABC prohibits guests from bringing a water bottle, which is false. It would be more appropriate to just say they "don't allow outside water" as a general house rule.

What a pleasant find. Right across from Angel stadium. Intimate and classy but still down to earth…read more I didn't feel out of place in casual clothes with my kids. Service was excellent. Even the owner, Earnest, was helping. We don't drink alcohol so went for the food. We always like to try a bunch of the small items. The Burrata and baby heirloom tomato. Nice contrasts of the bitter arugula, creamy burrata, slightly sweet balsamic, fresh tomatoes. It just worked. My son was sad that they ran out of their shishito peppers. Must be good to sell out.... The little gem caesar was the only dish that disappointed. It was fresh, but quite bland. The truffle french fries seemed so simple but so good. Something about a french fry done well... the spicy ketchup and truffle aioli were perfect pairings. The wagyu beef sliders were perfect small bites. Very beefy, in a good way. Normally I don't like sweet pickles but the honey mustard pickles were a perfect compliment to the beefy wagyu. The crispy fried chicken was really well done. Reminded me of Korean fried chicken but slightly more refined. The citrus cured hamachi were perfect little bites. The spicy tuna roll was pretty good. A lot bigger than what you get at sushi restaurants. I do prefer it a little spicier though. For dessert we tried the cheesecake. Another example of something seemingly simple but very well done. For me the star of the show was the berry sauce on top. Really fresh berries. The sauce was perfect, not too sweet, a hint of mint. There is a parking garage under the apartments. No tickets, they scan you license plate when you enter. They give you a validation code but I couldn't get it to work. It was only $2.50.

Wait, how have I not reviewed Colony Wine Merchant yet?! CWM is an absolute gem…read more My husband and I started going here about 4 years ago after I hosted a private event here. Ever since then, it's become a regular spot for us. The owners Sonya and Mike are truly what make Colony special -- but so does their incredible staff. I can't say enough good things about Shalene, Molly, Camille... anyone we come in contact with is always so sweet and attentive. The wine selection speaks for itself. Sonya does a great job at bringing a rotating selection that we always enjoy. There is always a featured flight that, a great selection of white, red, and bubbles, and they even have some craft beers available as well. There is also a great selection of wine to purchase to take home with you after. But the food. Oh my, you don't just go to Colony for the wine because their food is absolutely FANTASTIC. You can't go wrong with their charcuterie, and let me tell you they have the BEST french fries in Orange County. The daily specials have never disappointed and on Tuesday nights you can't get one of the best grilled cheese around. We love visiting on Thursday nights because the owner Mike does live music on Thursdays where he sings and plays the guitar. This last year, my husband got us their wine membership which we have really enjoyed. Every other month you get a curated four wine selection and you get to come during a window to pick up your wine and you get two free flights to enjoy when you pick up. Pays for half the membership in itself. My only complaint? It's not closer to our house... which maybe is a good thing. And I won't deduct a star over it.

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.

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.

Great experience at Maison Fox!…read more My husband stopped in the store portion of the business a few weeks about to pick up wine. The wine was amazing so we decided to stop by for a mid-week dinner last night. The outdoor space is such a nice space. I even saw someone having wine and reading a book. Definitely will keep this place in mind for a nice spot to relax. The menu is rotating. We had an artichoke dip and pretzel that was delicious. For our mains we had salmon and pasta. Both were very good. Honestly one of the best meals I've had in the downtown Fullerton area. The buttercake was very good. Mason Fox is known for their natural wines. My husband had a white that was good. I really enjoyed a glass of their orange wine. The name escapes me but it had field in the name.

There was a mix-up with our reservation, but they graciously accommodated our group anyway, which really set the tone for the evening. The wine was fantastic, and the candle-making was so much fun. It was such a relaxed, laid-back atmosphere that the two hours flew by. We never felt rushed and had plenty of time to enjoy the entire experience. One thing to keep in mind: because the candle-making experience takes about two hours, be sure to arrive at least two hours before closing so you have enough time to enjoy it all. It's absolutely worth it! The owner is incredibly welcoming, and the staff was so warm, friendly, and attentive. We can't wait to come back!

Since it was a Saturday, I'd recommend having a reservation or being on the waitlist! It was still quite a wait for our party of 6. The hostesses where wearing costumes which was cool, but they werent very friendly. When we were all able to check in, we waited and additional 25 mins with no system in place of where to wait. So we all just kind of stood there as we didn't want to get missed when they had a table for us. When we were called in, we did get the worst seats in the house and wished we were placed literally anywhere else. Being so close to the bathrooms and the curtain separating the stock room kind of broke the immersion. The food was fairly priced, but I think it was because the portions were pretty small. I tried the Cordon Bleu chicken sliders- they were fine, nothing stand out. Their seasonal menu was very interesting and the butternut squash salad was good, but again, pretty small in portion. Brussel sprouts were delish, but also small in portion. Drinks are a standout though! The bartenders are super friendly and my drink (the ravens claw) was very strong. The props and projections were fun little details that activated the space! Would've enjoyed it more if we were in a more optimal area. Overall it was fun because of the people I was with, so I'd give this overall experience a 3.5! If they weren't there, I'd give a solid 3 stars. I'm open to trying this place again and hoping for a better experience next time.
