Located inside Fera Anaheim, a DoubleTree by Hilton, this bar/lounge was honestly one of the main…read morereasons we decided to book our stay there. The space is BEAUTIFUL, both during the day and at night. When we checked in on Friday evening they even had live music, but unfortunately I was feeling a little sick so I skipped it and told myself I'd redeem the experience the next day before heading to Disneyland. And I'm glad I did. In the daytime, the patio area is gorgeous--you can really appreciate the firepit seating and the little lake with koi fish outside. Such a relaxing vibe. We came by around 4PM to pregame before Disney and the bar was pretty busy. Huge shoutout to Arvey, the bartender who took care of us during our visit. Not only was the service exceptional, but he genuinely made some of the best cocktails we've had in a while. Sitting at the bar and watching him make the drinks was honestly part of the experience itself. At first we were trying to customize and tweak our drinks because we usually stay in our comfort zone, but after talking with him and learning more about the ingredients in The Peel's specialty cocktails, we decided to trust the process a little more. We ordered the Dragonfly and Playing With Fire, and both were amazing--beautiful presentation, really balanced flavors, sweet and sour in the best way. We're usually not big foam cocktail people either, but this visit might've changed our minds a little. Also, Playing With Fire came with a fun little presentation moment which made it even better. Honestly, I was really impressed with my experience here. I even came back for another drink at breakfast before checking out of the hotel lol. The dining area also looked beautiful and the food coming out to other tables looked really good too. Definitely looking forward to coming back anytime I'm around the Anaheim area again.

SLOW & EXPENSIVE! Unfortunately, I'm only giving this review three stars as the food was really…read moreauthentic and tasty. Otherwise, the service is exceptionally slow, staff are very forgetful, and the value of the items don't outweigh the subpar experience. I enjoy eating an Italian dinner whilst hearing some spellbinding musician on his acoustic guitar just like the other guy. However, when you're constantly passed up and others who arrive after you get to order first, there's a problem. My servers were apologetic, but that's not enough. Time was wasted and unprofessionalism seized the moment. The restaurant was clean, had a nice view of the FERA's outdoor pond, and the decor was stylish. The Peel has the makings of a great time, it just falls short. As for my meal, I'd recommend the LINGUINI POMODORO which comes with burrata cheese, marcona almond, and basil pesto. I added grilled chicken for an extra $14. Just the plate, cost $25. Add chicken and it's $39. Again, ingredients are fresh. However, I wouldn't recommend coming here unless you're out of options. You'll get a good meal at least.

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.

The actual egg itself felt like you were eating a steamed egg from the airport lounges , ruined the omelette so we just ate the short rib Maybe breakfast/brunch wasn't their forte.

This is one of my favorite restaurants. Whether we eat at the restaurant or get to go, I'm usually…read morealways happy. So when I order, I usually get the pick three or the feast. It's always more food than one sitting, so I'm able to enjoy it for a while I can't get enough of the biscuits and apple butter, so I buy like a little tub of the apple butter and extra biscuits. You can't beat that! My other thing that I love is their a strawberry lemonade. It's really good and it's not too sweet and not too sour. Then comes to barbecue I love the brisket. I love the pork belly and my favorite is always the baby back ribs. They're very generous with their sauce, but just in case a bottle of sauce is totally worth it and available to purchase. I think one time I've been here three times in in one weekend and the service and quality never waivers. There are times the wait is a little longer than usual, but the servers are very communicative of anywait. The restaurant is a little smaller. It's not fit for super large groups maybe like 8 to 10 would be good At most. It does have that old timer feel. So cute!

This should have been so much better! I ordered the brisket through DoorDash and, to give credit…read morewhere it's due, the food arrived hot and the delivery itself was fine. Unfortunately, that's where the positives ended for me. When I order from a BBQ restaurant, especially when I'm paying BBQ prices, I expect the brisket to be the standout item. Good brisket should be tender, juicy, flavorful, and have that rich smoky taste that comes from being cooked low and slow. Sadly, that wasn't my experience at all. The brisket I received was dry, tough, and lacked the depth of flavor I was expecting. Instead of being easy to pull apart or melt-in-your-mouth tender, it was chewy and difficult to eat. The seasoning and smoke flavor were also underwhelming, making the meat feel even more disappointing. As someone who specifically ordered brisket because it's usually the star of any BBQ menu, I was surprised by how far it fell short of expectations. I understand that delivery can sometimes affect food quality, but since the food arrived hot, I don't think temperature was the issue here. The problem was simply the quality and preparation of the brisket itself. Based on my experience, I would recommend that others skip the brisket. There are plenty of BBQ places that do brisket exceptionally well, and unfortunately this wasn't one of them. I was really looking forward to this meal and ended up disappointed. I can't see myself ordering the brisket again.

Pricing was a little dramatic and unnecessarily high, but I think it's due to the close-to-summer season? Valet parking is pretty much required.

Of the three times of stayed here, twice my safe didn't work and had to be taken care of my maintenance once my shower didn't work and once my toilet seat had been painted, and the paint was peeling off. During my most recent day when you shut the door, it wouldn't lock you had to either pull on the handle when you were leaving or press really hard from the inside. Doesn't make you feel super safe. Look I get everybody has to work and make 11. But what I'm staying somewhere with the family I don't want to have to get into an elevator with a prostitute. That has happened here multiple times. That's not me being approved. That's not me being judgmental, I have been propositioned in the elevator twice in three stays.

Excellent customer service all around. I ordered a chicken burrito and a margarita. They have two options for the margarita, strawberry or lime and I chose strawberry. The seating area was a little crowded and very loud. The World Cup game was on and most people were watching that. But that wasn't what was loud. They have a jukebox-type music selection machine and when someone selects a song, it plays loudly. If no one selects a song, it's actually quiet. The food comes with chips and salsa, which they bring out first. I'm very sensitive to spicy and I found the salsa spicy but good. Note that when you pay, they add a $0.50 charge for credit card and it doesn't give you the option to tip so be prepared with cash if you want to do that. I would recommend coming if you want an authentic food experience.
