    French toast latte
    Mark H.

    Had brunch on the patio, which was quieter than indoors. Great food: Benny Duo with Ham Benedict III and a Smashed Avocado Benny. Garden Harvest Omelet; the chili lime avocado was quite spicy. We like the food and the non-coffee drinks; coffee drinks are OK. Had a decaf latte and French toast latte, served with a piece of French toast on top.

    Great place to go when you want to have a big rewarding breakfast! Their menu has every combination you can think of for breakfast, and more! I like their bright and cheery decor - great ambiance for breakfast or brunch. Love their outdoor patio too. Very nice portion size and some dishes can feed two, if you are not super hungry. Quality and preparation are decent - not fine dining level but commensurate to their price point. Service was good considering how busy they were when we came on a Saturday morning. I do have great respect for people who work here - I watched how they worked and I'm really impressed by how they could keep calm under so much stress -- babies crying, children running around, adults wanting this and that and more this and more that... If any of the staff happens to be reading, my hat off to you all!

    Sweet Potato Veggie Smash Up*
    Allyssa C.

    Came here for a group brunch on a Saturday morning. There was a waitlist and it took us about 40 minutes to get seated. We got seated inside but they also had outdoor seating. I decided to try the sweet potato veggie smash up since I'm counting calories right now and I also got a chicken sausage on the side for some more protein. The veggies were seasoned well and the poached egg was a nice touch. I also liked the choice of veggies in this dish: mushrooms, pickled red onions, and asparagus. Minus points because the server skipped me when they refilled everyone's water. My cup was only had a quarter left of water and I ran out of water by the end of the meal. They didn't come back for me to get a refill.

    This spot was phenomenal! Everything taste absolutely delicious! Our server was amazing! And the atmosphere felt so cool! Definitely coming back to try other things!

    Biscuits & Gravy*

    I'm glad my friend and I came here for brunch to celebrate her birthday and that Yelp has an option to join their wait list ahead of time. It was busy already. When we got there though, we waited for about 10min only. It's a nice cozy place to dine. I like the bright decor. Staff folks were friendly. Our server was friendly and attentive. Service was prompt. The food was delicious and plentiful. I had the biscuits & gravy with a side of sausage, something I sometimes get when eating out because 1) I don't make this at home and 2) I don't usually eat breakfast, so this was one indulgent dish! It was delicious and very filling. The biscuit was perfectly toasted, and the gravy had chunks of sausage. The eggs were cooked just how I like them. My friend ordered a Protein & Veggie Egg White Scramble, and she enjoyed every bite! Will definitely go back there and try their Benedicts next time!

    If you're looking for a hearty classic breakfast, look no further. Snooze brings you all the classics you would want for breakfast or brunch in a weekday and a weekend. The service is also second to none. Our server gave us Felicia buttermilk pancakes free of charge and we were all over it. We ordered the pancake flight, the Snooze breakfast and the protein omelet. The flight is a must get if you're a pancake lover. The quality in the pancake is second to none, plus the fresh fruit makes it a guilty pleasure. The omelet was hearty and you won't be leaving hungry. Eggs were fluffy and not dry. Same for the Snooze breakfast: classy and delicious. This place definitely gives a cozy vibe and can be a usual hangout place with friends on the weekend. Be prepared, however, as lines can get long. You can join the waitlist online but expect to wait 1+ hour during the weekend.

    One of the perfect breakfast/brunch spots in OC! Parking: This location is in a high foot traffic plaza. Finding a parking spot can be difficult, especially on the weekends. Ambiance/Environment: It was extremely busy during the weekend. There's indoor seating, outdoor seating, and bar seating. Every single seat was filled. The booths, tables, and chairs have bold colors of green and orange. Everything is well kept and clean. Service: Highly recommend joining the waitlist through their rewards app. If you don't join the waitlist, partner with the host at the podium. I visited on a Sunday afternoon, and I waited about 30 min. You can also walk up to the bar if there's an open seat. Shout out to Gustavo for being attentive and courteous. Each worker was on top of their game. Throughput was also quick after ordering. Food & drinks: I ordered a pancake flight, hash brown, and one of their seasonal lattes. The French Toast Latte was sweet but still good. I prefer my lattes sweet, so I really enjoyed this. The hash brown was crispy and seasoned well. The pancake flight comes with three set pancakes, but you can substitute them. I chose the sweet potato pancake, strawberry shortcake pancake, and chocolate ganache pancake (seasonal). I looove their pancakes. They're airy and filling. The sweet potato pancake sounds intimidating, but it's not. There's a subtle hint of sweet potato, but it's not overwhelming. The strawberry shortcake pancake had fresh strawberries and strawberry drizzle. Literally strawberry heaven. The chocolate ganache pancake was very rich and sweet. This was my favorite pancake bc I love chocolate lol. Pricing: Prices are as expected from a popular brunch restaurant. Service was amazing, and the food and drinks are delicious. Highly recommend joining their rewards app bc they offer coupons and you earn "jacks" for future savings.

    French Toast Latte
    Myra J.

    This Snooze location was the best!! We came here for a late lunch and only waited 20 minutes to be seated. There was plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Inside was kind of loud but we didn't mind. We ordered the French toast and the hash brown egg bowl. Both items were delicious!! We got the French toast latte as well, and it was a great portion of sweet to coffee ratio. We enjoyed our time and the food as well. The food came out 10 minutes after we ordered it. We will definitely be back to try other brunch items. Make this your next brunch stop!!

    Outside

    Friends and I came by on a Thursday morning and business was already starting to pick up. I heard the party in front of me ask for patio seating, so I also requested a table outside to enjoy the sliver of sunlight (it had been raining all week in the bay, and I wanted to enjoy the socal sunshine even if we were literally in the back patio, and there was no sun directly on us..) Still a vibe though! And our servers checked on us frequently. All of our dishes came out at the same time and super quick, so that's definitely a bonus. The habanero pork belly breakfast fried rice was a dish that we decided on the night before because it just sounded SO good. Unfortunately, this dish fell a bit short of our expectations because it was too saucy and just a tad bit too salty -- Not our favorite dish. The signature pancake flight was absolutely delicious. I loved the pineapple upside down pancake, the cinnamon roll pancake tasted exactly like a cinnamon roll, and the strawberry shortcake pancake was so cute + tastes exactly like what you would imagine it to taste like. This was a super good portion for three people to share and get to try everything. Benny Duo (Bella Bella + Smash Avocado) -- Both were solid with perfectly poached eggs and seasoning. I don't have any notes for these, they just weren't particularly memorable, but they definitely added a really pleasant savory balance to our breakfast. if I had to choose one that I liked more, it would be the Bella Bella. While I didn't order the OMG! French Toast myself, I had a bite and fell in love. The mascarpone in between the slices added such a nice tartness to this sweet breakfast item, and the fresh strawberries my single bite complete. SO GOOD. I definitely wanna come back to one of their locations to try the rest of the menu because Snooze definitely hit the spot as somebody that's not really into breakfast in general! 'til the next time I'm in SoCal, I'll be thinking about this place..

    Inside view

    Great for brunch meetups. Inside is very clean and chic. Food is great and fresh. I loved their honey-oat latte. They split our food because we asked to. Lots of people better to make reservation ahead of time. If your in Tustin must try this place!!

    3 Egg Omelet*
    Brenda L.

    We came on a rainy Tuesday around 10:30am, no wait when we checked Yelp, but ended up waiting about 20 minutes for a party of 3 (you can join the waitlist on Yelp, which helps). Parking was easy, handicap friendly, and there's outdoor seating (you have to walk through the inside to get to it, so not fully pet-friendly). Inside seating includes booths and tables; we got a comfy booth. Staff was friendly and welcoming. I ordered the Almond Butter Coconut Porridge (vegan) with fresh-squeezed orange juice, both were delicious. The portion was huge, super filling, and topped with fresh strawberries and blueberries. The OJ was perfectly balanced, not too sweet or bitter. Food came out around the same time, everyone was happy and full, and the prices were reasonable. Would definitely recommend! The only drawback was that the music was so loud. At times we kind of had to shout to keep the conversation going. I actually missed a couple of the things my friends said hehe cause I was too shy to keep asking "what?" "Can you say it again?" Haha so I'd recommend just turning the music down a bit for a less club like feeling.

    Smashed Avocado Benny*
    Nikki N.

    My partner would give this place a 5, but for me it was closer to a 4. We came here to celebrate a birthday, and while the food had highlights, the service fell short of expectations. Our server did not feel especially friendly or attentive, which affected the overall experience. We ordered the Benny Duo, the OMG French Toast, and a side of Snooze Signature Bacon. The French toast was the clear standout--far better than it looks, and genuinely delicious. The toasted coconut added a wonderful texture and flavor, and I would absolutely recommend this dish. The Benny Duo was good but not particularly memorable. I enjoyed the habanero pork belly, but the smashed avocado was underwhelming. I also asked whether there would be an additional charge for the pork belly option and was told there would not be, but a $3 charge appeared on the bill. It was not a big issue, but the lack of clarity and patience in the response added to my overall disappointment. Overall, the food was solid, with a few standout items, but the service and experience did not quite live up to the occasion.

    Kimberly R.

    Just wanna say I've never had a bad experience at snooze, Tustin and Orange are always great. The food (Juan tacos add avocado) and cinnamon roll pancakes are one of the best breakfast you can get anywhere. But today Robert S was great! And wanted to give him a shout out! Great service me and my boys favorite breakfast spot in oc

The ambiance alone makes it feel like a whole experience, not just drinks. We tried a few of their specialty cocktails, all super well done, but the real highlight was our server John. He was amazing -- attentive, fun, and clearly knows his drinks. At one point he made us an off-menu cocktail that was STRONG (in the best way) and honestly one of my favorites of the night. And the attention to detail?? He even let me borrow his hat for photos so I could fully commit to the camping aesthetic 10/10 for the vibes. Overall: such a cute, unique spot for a night out. Perfect for something a little different, a little playful, and definitely memorable. Would absolutely come back -- as long as it's this kind of camping.

Once we said the code we entered a really cool mine shaft area. The attention to detail was on point and I was impressed! We were then taken upstairs to a private bar where there are four tables of four so a max of 16. This makes sense as to why reservations are hard to come by. The only ding about seating is you are sat with strangers it is not a private table. Luckily we had a fun older couple at our table so it made the conversation more lively. Otherwise don't go here with an expectation of an intimate/ private date night. They also offer a limited food menu but looked very promising. However, we were here for a night cap so just dabbled in drinks. The bartender had a seasonal menu of 4 cocktails he created. He explained the drinks and then had us try each one with a straw. We then placed our order based on what we liked. He did say if we were not a fan he could create us our own personal cocktail as well. The old fashion he created was phenomenal! Overall, a cool little spot in the OC. Do wish they were open later as they do close at 11pm on Friday and Saturday.

    When I said "Bar" and "Santa Ana" in the Yelp search - of course it said "Club 616" in the first…read morespot - OF COURSE IT SAID 616!!! I was lucky enough to stumble across this gem of the center of OC when they first opened - and I am proud to be a regular here. I don't know how to go somewhere else - because I feel like the staff are giant gems in this jewel of a spot. Winters is a curator of boozy information that has helped me learn about "gin" and "root beer whiskey" so I can sound like an adult-ish purveyor, when really I know close to nothing except being a willing student to his creations. Dan the Man and Jacob always see me raise my hand in the corner of the bar, like the student I am, and have been willing to fill in the blanks for me when I know I am of thirst, but do not have the words for what to order. Every person working in the well has treated me with kindness - they have taken the time to get to know me, and I will be forever appreciative of how they have taken care of me over the years. But the real joy has been the transformation that this spot has for building a community of people in Santa Ana for real recognizing real. I have been bringing my Dad with me to play pool for the past few years. Sometimes people ask me if he plays professionally, I am terrible, and my skill incline is slow, he is patient and plays with the same level craftiness that the staff offer the cocktails. My Dad is always stoked when we have time to go have a few hours of games at 616 - especially now that there are regulars on 4th street that are excited to see that he is there playing - and they rush to write their names on the chalkboard to challenge him - or beat him in a game they really earned the W. On lazy Sundays, I watch couples sit with their drink, listening to Jazz, and watching my Dad whoop my ass while making amazing shots. I am forever grateful to Memo who sometimes takes a break from his shift behind the bar to give my dad an actual challenge - which allows me the chance to watch my Dad enjoy fellowship around the table. Knowing the table was a relic of the bars former self, and knowing the history that this spot has in Santa Ana is a reminder that so much around us can change - but it is those moments of the crack of the rack, the cheer of getting the combo shot, and the shake of hands when it's over that shows that it's not just about the pool table - but about the energy of a place that is welcoming and curated by people who care about what they do - and care about who comes through their doors. Thank you Jason and Mike B to bringing this to 4th St and supporting the community that was already here - and for building a community for the future. Thank you to Christina and Brandon for always having amazing pictures, decor, and fun events at 616 that help introduce new folks into this great spot. Time is short. Learn about Root Beer Whiskey. Write your name on the Chalk Board. No one lives forever.

    I love the vibe here. It's about the energy and atmosphere for sure. Reminiscent of the bars /…read moreclubs in Baja California or Mexico in general, it's lively with a back patio area and even like a taquero there, at least on weekends. The drat beer selection is solid and the cocktails are well crafted. Highly recommend this spot. One of my favorite it's Downtown Stabba Ana
