    The place is such a cute spot. Outside doesn't look so flashy but don't let it fool you. Coming in,…read morethe air filled with lively chatter of families and friends over what smells like good home cooking. I loved the decor. (I didn't take photos). It feels like home away from home. Everyone here was friendly. And the staff are so welcoming. The hospitality was beyond. I came here with my mom and we both enjoyed it. My mom had ordered their fresh blueberry muffins and she enjoyed it along with her coffee. I didn't try the muffin this time because I wanted something savory. Next time for sure because it looks delicious. I had ordered the #1 on the menu choice of meat with eggs (any style). I ordered my plate with bacon, eggs over medium, with hash browns styled "Those Hash-browns" which has onions and bell peppers. (Not to be confused with house potatoes fyi). I also had it with a side of toasted sourdough. It had hit the spot for a breakfast plate and the price was very reasonable compared to other breakfast spots. The portions I feel were perfect. I took leftovers home (hash browns wise). I can't wait to come back with more family and friends and be able to just indulge in the yummy items of their menu. 11/10 for me. More than 5 stars to be honest. I'm glad we decided to stop here.

    Right off the bat, what surprised me about the Snooty Fox was it's ambience - it's very…read moreold-fashioned american. The chairs are old and madr of wood, the wallpaper is a faded, patterned blue. It's not the sort of place you'd expect in Irvine: coming in here feels like visiting an old grandmother's inn. Likewise on a Tuesday morning, most of the patrons seem like they're old regulars. There's an old, patriotic Americana feel to the whole space - and that's not necessary a bad thing. As for the food, I ordered a salsa egg burrito. It came out decently fast and smelled AMAZING. The portion size is more than generous, I didn't even realize the hash brown potatoes the menu mentioned it came with were on the side and not just in the burrito The inside of the burrito is completely filled with egg. In terms of taste, it wasn't one of the best breakfast burritos I've had, but it's still good and very filling.

He was telling us about the food and having a pleasant conversation with us. But I couldn't help to notice the slight smell coming from his under arm. He was a very nice man, but this unfortunately made me lose my appetite. All I recommend is that staff members make sure to stay up to date on hygiene before clocking in for work. Otherwise, I had a great experience and would definitely come again.

For all the restaurants in this center, in my opinion, Fennel is the best dining option if you want a sit down restaurant. Everything I've ordered thus far has been excellent, fresh, tasty, never dry. The service has always been extremely accommodating and the one time I've been disappointed in my original order selling out and having to wait too long for the final dish, they went out of their way to make sure I was given extra fries (which are excellent) and extra things to dip my heaping scoop of hummus into. Don't skip the cocktails, or really any of their handmade drinks. I cannot not get a cardamom latte at brunch, and it's so fun picking which cocktail to get to unwind with whatever dinner entree I go with (usually the salmon bowl). They have large tables so larger groups are welcome. I always see corporate type people having working lunches here, or families out for a nice dinner. This place is almost always quite full, but I still feel like they are slept on and under appreciated.
