This is kind of a cool little place kinda tucked in a little shopping center. We got seated pretty fast you put your order in and then set at your assigned table. The one thing I didn't like is that the tables are just random and the servers have a hard time finding where the food goes. I didn't eat anything I just had a coffee. I thought their coffee drinks were very good. My husband said the food was good. read more

We went for Mother's Day brunch. Everything we had was fantastic! The portions are huge, they have a wide variety of choices and the service was excellent. We are already planning on going for Father's Day. Highly recommend. read more

Live not far from here and have been meaning to try. My wife and I felt it was a good time being mid-week and it would give the restaurant the best opportunity to showcase the food at a time when it wasn't slammed. The restaurant space is nice. There is an outdoor and indoor space. Tables are well spaced from each other to allow for comfort. It is an order at register, with food brought to table. Order process and service was good and friendly. Drinks and silverware and napkins and water were brought promptly to table. Food was brought to table relatively quickly after being seated and was definitely still hot when served. I had the brunch breakfast burrito with short rib. It's served with a smoky red sauce and a green chutney. The smoky red sauce was OK, but it was served in a steel ramekin and the sauce was blazing hot in the ramekin and actually burned my thumb, so be careful . The short rib in the burrito was tender, but flavorless. Overall, the burrito was just OK. The onions were sweated within the eggs which caused a lot of moisture when placed into the burrito and eaten, kind of unpleasant and very messy. I particularly enjoy a good crunchy tasty of hash browns in my breakfast burrito. Hash browns were soft and couldn't taste them in burrito. My wife had the chicken and waffles. The waffles were airy and tasty. The chicken was well breaded and boneless, but slightly overcooked and dry and not a huge amount of flavor. Overall, it's a nice place. It's pretty expensive, iffy on whether we will return due to the cost and the bland taste of the food, but we could tell that it was fresh and prepared right away. In the end, a very good tasting food and a nice atmosphere will overcome an expensive meal in my opinion, but if the food is not great, the expense is usually not worth the visit . read more

Epic Breakfast Burrito! It was driving from Brea to Canyon Lake and I wanted breakfast so I looked into my maps for a breakfast burrito along the way. I found this poached kitchen place. Never heard of it. I ran in and got a breakfast burrito to go and boy was that a fantastic decision. I have to say that this breakfast burrito is the best I've had in a long time. To me it has a perfect combination of everything in it. They give you a sauce with it that is quite tasty and I asked for something spicy so they gave me some of their habanero sauce. PERFECT! The burrito was so good I had to finish it all in the parking lot before I got back on the freeway. Cheers to poached kitchen! I'll be back- read more

The food was delicious, and the service they were very attentive. I recommend this place for good food.

This place is so delicious! The service was excellent. I ordered takeout but could see how great the ambiance was. It's ideal for families and someone just wanting to relax and eat a well-rounded breakfast. I used the app, which made it easy to order. You have to try this place out! read more

We are locals that just tried this place for the first time. We had an incredible experience! The host was very nice and helpful with giving us recommendations for our first time there. The food was AMAZING!! Honestly great quality food!! We had the House Benedict, the Breakfast Burrito, and a single pancake. Everything was delicious but that Burrito was so unassumingly delicious, it was actually fantastic! Great flavor!! Wow! We went around 9am on a Friday and it was pretty busy, but the atmosphere is great. Really fun cute dining area, inside and outside. All of the employees were very nice and attentive. Definitely coming back and highly highly recommend!! read more

WOW. My wife and I are always on the hunt for the best breakfast/brunch spots in Southern California, and after our first visit to Poached Kitchen today, it has easily earned a top spot on our list! (Believe me, we have tried nearly 100 places!) The food here is absolutely incredible. I had the Steak & Eggs, it is truly some of the best out there. My wife had the chilaquiles verde which was delicious too. Hash browns, sourdough bread, and jam taste amazing, like getting a hug from your best friend. Very well-made coffee too. The staff is friendly and provides quality service. attentive. Fun environment and interior decor. GREAT JOB to the whole Poached Kitchen team... everyone and their cousin should eat here! We are excited to come back! read more

Love love love! Not a lot of brunch places in Anaheim Hills, so was excited to find this! Cute place, indoor and outdoor seating. The food was delicioussss. I am dying to go back for the breakfast burrito. It's not a full table service restaurant, you just order at the front and sit down. read more

Love that it's down the hill for us, easy and convenient:) The food is always really good and comes out fresh and hot. Love the breakfast burrito Service is pretty good... only negative things is it's pretty pricey and the music is louder than it needs to be. read more

Came here and the only positive thing I have to say is that the customer service is really good and also it's a nice inside and outside. The thing is the food was extremely mid for the price. I got the breakfast burrito and the size is good but i felt like it barely had any flavor. My girlfriend got the pancakes and I am not a picky eater at all but the pancakes here are probably the worst I've ever had. It tasted like the top of a loaf of bread and not even the syrup can save it. I wanted to really like it because it is nice and the customer service is great :/ read more

Me and my grandkids were there on 24 December and we had a very bad experience with the manager named Tyler. She is very disrespectful and mean and I believe she is also racist I had sat me and my grandkids had a table that had four chairs and we noticed it was tight a little bit and we moved to table next to us, which is more room and fits 6 peopl so when we were about to eat, Tyler and Manager comes up to us and removes us because there's a party of six that wants to sit down and I'm trying to explain to her that we were here first and they came after us and she said you know they were here waiting. I don't know that's a lie. They came after me and my grandkids within 30 minutes. read more

Been here twice now, when you come here you would order first then seat yourself. Taking orders at your seat is also an option but for the most part taking your order first then seating is how they r organized. The food here was just the typical brunch style menu. The first time I went I got the matcha latte which was decent and the salmon benedict which was good. I wouldn't say it stood out from any other but it was good. The 2nd time I came I had an avocado toast. Also a solid item to get, there wasn't anything different or amazing but it was good. There is mimosas that you can order I recommend getting the bottle of your trying it maximize it and minimize the cost (if u plan to have more than 1 glass) other than that nothing really stood out but it's definitely worth trying. The service was nice, when our server was busy there was another server there that came around and checked on tables. He made sure we got everything we needed for the most part which supplemented for the semi slow service and food. The first time I went was much better but since the 2nd time I came with a bigger group service was mid. The atmosphere was nice, it was just chatter in the air, and pretty well lit space since there is a good amount of natural light. I do recommend coming here with friends when you're catching up or wanting to get brunch. read more

I've been here twice and both times the food was perfect. I got the Huevos Rancheros which were very good. The drinks are decent and the service was good. I recommend if your in the neighborhood or willing to make the drive. read more

Okay hear me out- Poached kitchen is a new restaurant in the Anaheim area, so I had to try it! I ordered the yogurt bowl and the French toast. The yogurt bowl was really good! I liked it a lot, especially with the granola on it. The French toast was OK. They didn't give any whipped cream, or things to eat the toast with so it was very dry. Sadly I have to take off a star for that, but everything else was great! I tried their new tiramisu waffle with my sister, and that has to be the best thing aside from the yogurt I got. Honestly this wasn't the best thing I've had, nor worst thing! I would come back but I wish their French toast had more flavor and wasn't as dry!! Overall, 4 stars for the great effort, nice staff, and cute setting of the restraunt. read more

We were hesitant to dine here because my kids are usually impatient with waiting. BUT LET ME TELL YOU... the staff who checked us in were incredibly patient! We initially wanted the first available seating but then changed our minds to indoor seating, and they kept us updated throughout. The wait time was barely an issue (around 6-10 minutes). You place your order first and then find a seat. The food was delivered to our table promptly. I ordered steak & eggs, and my steak was cooked perfectly to medium rare. My son ordered chilaquiles with short rib, but he wasn't thrilled with his choice. The staff happily switched the protein on his chilaquiles with such understanding. We're definitely coming back! I have to try their coffee next time--it looked delicious, but I was too full this visit. read more

Well, after a long wait we finally were able to try Poached. Our first impression was that it's just ok. I'm not a fan of having to order at a counter and then go wait for a seat. I prefer to have a server come to my table and take my order. When we walked up, they wanted to put our name in for a table, but they said the bar was open seating so we chose that. The staff was friendly and welcoming. Someone came and took our order at the counter. We decided to have coffee and a chai tea latte. Coffee was a bit strong, but drinkable. There was always someone refilling our coffee if needed and that was nice. My chai was good. We ordered the Machaca and the chile verde Benedict. The Machaca had lots of flavor and was good. We had the hashbrowns as our side and they have a lot of a buttery taste. If you like a lot of butter taste then you will like them. The chili Verde Benedict also was very tasty. We didn't order any alcohol this time but if you want it they have a nice bar and it looked like drinks were flowing. It was cold that morning and the front doors were wide open so we had to keep our jacket and sweater on the whole time. I think once the weather gets nicer we will try it again. The person at the bar said normally they would keep the large rolling doors all open that lead out to the patio but today it was closed due to weather. We will try it again but not until weather is nice so we don't have to wear our coats why we eat. I'd like to try other items, maybe something sweet We shall see. read more

I've been here a couple times and they've been pretty good the foods alright just something to get you by just recently I came here with my family and I had ordered a coke and the guy who was making the drinks brought them over and he said "alright who had the coke" and all I said was "me" and raised my hand a little and he said "okay well ladies first" in a rude dismissive tone then proceeded give everyone else's drinks first and mine last it's not even the fact about the whole "ladies first" it's the fact he asked who had the coke and I answered him and he just ignored me it was just embarrassing he was Hispanic looking, curly hair and glasses I even tipped too before this happened read more

Oh my goodness, my daughter took me to this place in Downey, California, right by where she lives amazing breakfasts!!! Instead of an eggs Benedict. I got a chorizo Benedict, but without the English muffin, and it was absolutely fantabulous.!!! I cannot wait to go back.!!! read more

My husband and I were excited to try a new breakfast place in Anaheim Hills. We were a little confused at first because we were greeted by a hostess where we put our name in and given a number but then we were shuffled to a counter-service-type of set up. This made me wonder why we needed a hostess to begin with (shrugging). That put us on the spot to order quickly and we both ended up ordering something we didn't particularly liked. We just chose something that was on the top of the menu and what was considered their popular items. After we ordered, we were seated in a very nice covered patio area. This made up for our very chaotic introduction to this establishment. The food came relatively quickly and it was "okay." I got better chicken and waffles at Bruxie. I don't remember exactly what my husband ordered but I remember he wasn't wowed by it. We ate and left feeling a little rushed and unsatisfied. I'm giving them 3 stars because their servers were nice. read more

What a delicious find and then to find out they're putting one closer to home (soon to be Whittier). I had the shirt rib omelette and I'm pretty picky when it comes to omelettes bc I hate when eggs are overcooked but this was cooked to perfection. My sister had the avocado toast and it was gorgeous as well, tasted good and the egg was poached perfectly. Service was fast and it was a delight for sure! Must try! read more

The location and the seating is great! I've been to the Irvine location, but this was my first time at the Anaheim location. The employees were attentive, and the food was enjoyable. We had gotten 6 different items, and tried a few of the drinks. The quantities were great, and the menu had many options. We also tried some items from their seasonal menu. I wasn't a fan of the peaches and cream pancakes, but the apricot strawberry waffles were nice. I wish they had more veggie omelette options, so I want to try building my own omelette next time. The churro waffle is a classic go to and the chilaquiles verdes are delicious. We took our mothers here for Mother's Day and they greatly enjoyed! read more

I had the best time at poached! Excellent service, and the food was wonderful! The breakfast burrito is the best, I would eat it every day if I could! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a delicious, filling breakfast read more

Everything was just mediocre. From the food to the service. Tried the blueberry pancakes and some scrambled eggs. Nothing too exciting. Staff seem to not be able to locate tables in their own restaurant. Patio was nice but that's pretty much it. read more

Clean modern ambiance. Adorable dog-friendly patio. (Always offers to bring our dog a water bowl Thank you, Poached!) Quick efficient service. Order at the counter, then sit down.

Happy they opened up in the area! read more

Guys the service here was sooo good! The patio vibes were super cute. The food was even better and came out super fast. It's definitely pricey for breakfast but worth it. house Benedict swapped ham for bacon 1000/10 literally best Benedict I've had. Chicken & waffles were insanely good with the thick gravy + syrup they give. I've never had anything like it 10/10. Chilaquiles were good at best. I would order something other than chilaquiles 7/10. Dulce de leche coffee was 10/10 OJ was good too. read more

Delicious flavor extremely delicious flavor. The food was delicious hot when it came to the table I highly recommend this place.

Been waiting to try this place since they took over the old Eves spot. They expanded the patio and its nice! Fast casual dining. Order at the kiosk and they bring you the food. Bottomless peach ice tea was on point, but i drink alot and they disnt refill until i kept asking. Food was good, hash browns were great. Portions ok, dont expect flappy jacks size menu or quantity. Fairly new so dont hold it againest the staff. Can visually see some standing around while some others busting their butts. Overall we enjoyed it and will be coming back.. read more

Hands down the best breakfast place. Not only is the food AMAZING, but the staff is always so friendly and helpful. When the hostess saw my mom, cousin and I were trying to take a picture, she immediately ran over from her post and asked if she could take a picture for us! The environment is lively but very comfortable. If you want somewhere to hang out and eat with friends or your family, this is the place! read more

Poached Kitchen - Smoked Salmon Benedict - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Anaheim, California

A last minute brunch date with our dogs on the patio on a sunny day was so enjoyable and great food!

This was my first time at Poached and it just wasn't for me. I ordered the Short Rib Benedict and although the presentation was outstanding and the eggs were perfectly poached, I just didn't care for the flavor. And, the hash browns were mushy and looked and tasted like they had been on the grill for several hours. They were very disappointing. And, the coffee was too strong for my taste. However, despite my experience, the cafe was very busy and the staff was friendly and efficient. Glad I was able to try them but I probably won't be back. read more

Came my with my dad in a little bit of a rush this morning, but that was no problem :) the food came out quickly and everything was wonderful! The woman who took our orders up front was very friendly, knowledgeable about the menu and gave good suggestions when I asked, and all the servers seemed to be smiling and in a good mood. We both loved the eggs benedict, which we ordered with fruit instead of hash browns, and the fruit was fresh and tasty. I had an iced strawberry matcha latte and we were given a cappuccino on the house; both were yummy and just the perfect amount of sweetness, not like Starbucks (which is way too sugary for me). The restaurant is clean and bright, and has a lovely patio where we enjoyed our breakfast. Will definitely be back! read more

Really great food and large portions. Order at the counter (a now luxury I appreciate by not having to have large tip), coffee refilled quickly, beautiful and comfortable outdoor patio or sit inside ; both are designed beautifully. Really nice staff all around. I'll definitely be back. On a different note, the 9 violations through the health department are a bit discerning. Hope none next time the inspector shows up... read more
