    Went here 4 times and each time the service wasn't consistent. The food could be a hit or miss. The drinks was really good but a few of them were really strong. Each time I would be a new group here , but my brother didn't really like the food he ordered. Because it's not consistent I don't think I'll be coming back here.

    Meal with Beef Bourguignon, Honey Wings, Carrot Rice, Langos and GTS pour!
    Todd H.

    Stopped in a few weeks back and was surprised about the changes to the menu. The new change to a small plate French-inspired menu (maybe rotating style?). Overall, we were looking forward to the KFC and other OCK staples but found some new items to try. Server was very kind and allowed us to move completely under the overhang to avoid the early evening sun. He was quick and attentive although must've gotten busy near the end as we had to waive someone down to get the check. Overall, the meal had both high and low notes. Everyone enjoyed the Langos (fry bread) as a started. Kids found that most appealing. We ordered the Beef bourguignon, the honey wings and carrot rice. We did not see the KFC on the menu but on review it looks like it's available on the website. Both the honey wings and carrot rice had small flowers which were not our favorite. Not hard to pick off though but enjoyed it without. We also got the carrot rice with the chorizo on the side (wasn't sure how spicy for the kids). Best dish was the beef bourguignon which filled up our little ones. The other dishes were ok but will likely look to try the other menu options next time. Best part of the menu is their whiskey list!! They have some really good bourbons for very reasonable prices. I grabbed a GTS but probably would have gone into a couple more if time allowed. All in all, it's still a nice night out in a very busy location!

    Came here for my 4 year anniversary because OCK was our first date location and we hadn't been back since. We were excited to see the Harry Potter theme! That was super cool. We came on a Wednesday so it wasn't crazy packed, but enough to create a good vibe. The food and service was just as good as I had remembered. Just glad we were able to spend this special moment back where it all began.

    The good part: Service is always impeccable. Lots of seating indoor and outdoor, when the weather is great the patio is the best! Be sure to make a reservation, it does get crowded at time. Now for the ok part: They made some significant changes to the menu , they've moved from an 'Asian theme' to a 'French theme'. Gone are the KFC, garlic noodles and they made some significant changes to the BBB (not in a good way, imho). Now the negative part: They now add an additional 'inflation surcharge' with no clarity on what that is for, or who gets it. Seems it's a way for them to increase prices, without changing the menu prices. We used to go monthly, with these changes, it will be a very long time before we go back.

    Orchard City Kitchen was such a pleasure to try out. The wait was a short 10min which was pretty good for a Friday night. We sat inside, it was cute, maybe just a little loud. The shareable small plate style was incredibly fun. We started out with the baguette and today's butter board (which had apples/pears) and were so excited to be handed a full baguette--nice crunch and soft interior. We also had the grilled artichoke, which had a lovely char and paired nicely with the sauce. We ended off with the lamb chops, which were incredibly soft and had a lovely char as well. The garlic and mint were an interesting pairing. We also tried their paradox beer and butter beer (surprisingly harry potter themed today) and enjoyed those. Bernardo helped us out that night and had such a chill friendly demeanor we loved--like talking to a friend.

    I've been a loyal customer of Orchard City Kitchen for years, and it's always been one of my go to spots. I've celebrated birthdays here, brought friends from out of town, and consistently recommended it because the food and vibe were always on point. That said, I've definitely noticed a lot of changes recently, both with the staff and the menu. I always came specifically for the BBB and the KFC, and I was really disappointed to see that both have been taken off the menu. Those dishes were staples for me and honestly a big reason I kept coming back. Change is part of the restaurant world, I get that but it's hard not to miss the old favorites and some of the familiar faces. I do want to give a big thank you to Kosar and Ronnie for the great service during my recent visit. They were attentive, friendly, and made the experience much better despite my menu disappointment. I'm hoping some of the classics make a comeback!

    Langos Hungarian Fry Bread

    The food here is always thoughtful, innovative, and tasty this is a place where food provides an experience. The furniture is industrial-modern with splashes of pop-culture in the drink menu and restroom. My husband and I started exploring OCK's brunch menu about a year ago, we've been back every few months since. We started our meal with the cinnamon roll pancakes - yum! They were fluffy, the cheesecake frosting was the-bomb.com We then shared the smoked salmon benedict. Also very delicious. They did a great job with the hollandaise sauce. The came the loco moco - it is a hearty dish that that easily serves 2 people. OCK's twist was to add kimchi. We finished our meal with the Langos Hungarian Fry Bread was interesting! I appreciated the all the different ingredients - chimchurri, cultured cream, and white cheddar. My husband thought it was too greasy, and I wasn't a fan of the shredded cheddar (reminded me of a Lunchable's shredded mozzarella cheese). What helped this dish come to life was the acidity from the chimchurri. Overall, it was a delightful dining experience, and we look forward to our next visit!

    Smoked salmon Benedict
    Jessica N.

    It's been a few years since I've been here and the quality has noticeably gone down in my opinion. It seems they have made some changes to the menu. I found myself struggling to find something I wanted to order. It seems they have more items to share than actual entree items. I settled with the smoked salmon Benedict which sadly only came with one biscuit. The triple B also now only comes with one biscuit and they changed the bacon. They changed the KFC dish and it's now more like a Taiwanese popcorn chicken than the Korean fried chicken they used to have. The taste of everything is fine, but just didn't blow me away especially with the cost and portion. Overall I just left feeling disappointed and underwhelmed for the price we are paying. The service was decent, But I just don't think I'll be coming here again for their brunch menu honestly.

    Solid 3.5 stars! Superb service - great staff and restrooms were clean - the dining area was spacious and cozy! However the food fell a bit short for me. I failed to take photos of everything we ordered. We were a big table of 11 people and things were picked at before my phone could eat first. I understood that this was a tapas style restaurant and because of that we made multiple orders and shared family style. The best menu item is the triple B - Bacon Biscuits and Butter! $14 : You get 2 biscuits 3 strips of bacon and a glob of butter! But the biscuits were fluffy and delicate and so delicious with the butter and bacon. $21 : Scallop Carpacio you get 6 thin slices and the tart with sharp spice was a pleasant surprise. Scallops were buttery soft. $57 : Steak Frites - the steak was tender and tasty but the frites missed the mark and the kids were disappointed that they didn't get the fries they thought would be. Also the price doesn't live up to the dish that was presented. So definitely the first disappointment. $23 : loco moco - this excited me - until it didn't. One small patty in a small bowl of mushroom gravy - and it was a bit too underdone for my liking and a bit salty. $22 : Garlic noodles. Small bowl of garlic noodles and probably one of the better dishes they offer - great bite on the noodles and flavor. $16 : KFC - the best popcorn chicken I've ever had! Yes popcorn chicken because that is the size of these chicken nuggets. They are small but they're very very tasty and so the cost can be more justified in comparison to the other dishes! $20 : Chantrelle mushrooms - or rather - Chantrelle MUSH - these looked so tasty on the menu with parsnip puree and chips - until those shrooms turned out to be mushy and the puree had zero seasoning... I was severely disappointed and embarrassed that i ordered these and our group didn't really wanna eat them either. $25: Truffled Game Hen - the cook on the chicken was good, stayed moist and juicy and tasted fine but didn't give "truffle" $22: the burrito. Don't get it. Save your money. We asked for the chili jam on the side because the kids won't handle it but - man - that was the biggest dryest breakfast burrito ever The ube cake was deelish! I don't know how much it is because I ordered on the low to surprise my aunt for her birthday and I paid for the bill behind her back... $432 for: 1 scallop capraccio 1 game hen 1 chantrelle mushrooms 4 biscuits bacon and butter 1 steak frites 1 breakfast burrito 1 American breakfast 1 loco moco 2 garlic noodles 1 KFC 1 ube slice cake We didn't order any beverages.

    This place been on my list for a long time and we finally made it out! Parking was a nightmare for Friday dinnertime, but once we got there the service was amazing. The vibes were great too, and the food delicious as well. We started with the BBB which was real good, then moved on to carrot rice (our favorite item of the night), honey wings (yum!), and scallop crudo (let's just say we were not mature enough for this one). Great vibes.

    Manhattan from the Harry Potter cocktail menu
    Sonia H.

    It's always a fun experience trying the cocktails here and creative food! I happened to try to Happy Hour menu for the first time and it's a nice surprise. The salmon chips and dip is perfect with cocktails. The old fashioned is smooth! Tried the Manhattan from the Harry Potter cocktail menu which I think is a Must try! It has a hint of chocolate flavor which balances the tartness sometimes I tasted in Manhattan. The highlight is the banana soft serve. It's from Straus and it's creamy as Straus soft serve never disappoints. The banana toppings gave it another level of flavor and crunchiness. Soooo good!!

    I was super excited to check this place out, and I enjoyed my visit here. The prices are up there, and they have a great variety of really unique dishes. I visited on a weekend for brunch, and it was absolutely packed. Be prepared for a noisy, crowded atmosphere. It was definitely a bit distracting because it was so busy. The service was understandably slow because the employees were helping so many customers. The interior is decorated rustically. Some of the dishes we tried were better than others. Since the prices were quite steep, I almost expected to be more impressed by the food than I actually was. There were certain dishes that were standouts. I really enjoyed the Biscuits, Bacon & Butter. The honey butter was so creamy and paired perfectly with the fluffy, warm biscuits. The bacon was nice and crisp, and the combination of all three made for the perfect bite. What I really like about this restaurant is the uniqueness of their dishes. They had so many creative selections that sounded phenomenal.

    How did I not review OCK yet?! Last trip here was just last night where I indulged in the fried chicken and a few cocktails.

    Ask the Community - Orchard City Kitchen

    Any special treat for anniversary?

    Not sure about anniversary, but for birthdays I usually let them know and they'll comp a dessert with some cute decoration on it and candles!

    Does OCK allow dogs for outdoor seating?

    Yes! They'll even offer a doggy water bowl!

    Are reservations recommended on a weeknight? Say 5 pm on a Wednesday?

    I think at 5:00 on a weeknight you'd be fine without a reservation. However, later in the evening or on weekends I'd suggest a reservation.

    Is there a minimum per guest fee for larger parties (15-20)?

    We went as a group of ~12 and weren't told that there is one. We did end up ordering at least 1 drink per person and some food to share. They will probably auto-charge gratuity.

    What's their menu for happy hour?

    It changes frequently, but is a small/limited menu.

    Can I order food from lunch menu on weekends or only brunch menu available?

    The menu literally always changes. I would call ahead to get a leg up on the day's menu

    Does it have outdoor/patio seating? Is it kid friendly and provide high chairs?

    yes

    Do you know if it's noisy to eat indoors? Some of us are hearing impaired....

    We went at a packed lunch hour and it wasn't too bad. My gf--who has aphasia and can't take being in noisy situations--didn't have issues.

    How long is the general wait on weekdays, and if so is there a way to reserve times between 2:00 pm and 4:00 pm?

    On weekdays besides Fridays, you can usually just walk in and get a table these past few months. I believe on weekdays they're closed from 2:30-4 since it's the gap between lunch and happy hour/dinner

    What is the average wait time for walk ins?

    Depends on the day or mealtime, but if it's a weekend evening - safe to say 45 - 120 minutes. BUT… Read more

    Gluten free options?

    yes , many salads and meat only options .

    During happy hour, is the full menu available?

    Yes

    Do they have a corkage fee?

    Yes $20 first and second corkage and $40 third (3 bottle max)

    Do they accept Walk-ins? If yes, then how long would be the wait for a party of 3 on a weekday?

    Yes you can walk in, but we had to wait about almost 40 min

    Does OCK offer heaters for people dining outdoors?

    We do have heaters, but nor for individual tables. Still - don't expect indoor temperatures outdoors.

    Does anyone know their HH days and hours?

    Yes. They have Happy Hour everyday from 4:00 p.m. to 5:15 p.m.

    Does any one know if they are offering outdoor dining at this time?

    Yes, from 4-8pm.

    How many dishes for 2 people? Are the portions tapa sized?

    Depends on your appetite. I would say 3 dishes between two people is adequate. For larger appetites, probably 4 dishes.

    Do they take reservations for lunch?

    Yes! (On Resy)

    Anyone know of menu options that are or could be made vegan?

This was genuinely one of the worst chicken sandwiches I have ever had. It was extremely gristly, fatty, and made with dark meat, which felt like an odd choice for a chicken sandwich. I'm not sure why this cut of chicken was used. The fries were alright, but they did not come with the sandwich and cost an additional $5. Our total came to almost $90 for three entrees with no beverages. I was especially frustrated because my sandwich was inedible. For the price and quality, I will not be returning and would not recommend this place.
