My family and I ate at Thirty Acres Kitchen twice during our stay at the Knott's Berry Farm resort, once for dinner and again for the breakfast buffet in the morning. This restaurant is a hidden gem (super stunning decor) and one of the best hotel restaurants I've ever eaten at. They have an incredible selection and prices are decent. The breakfast buffet is well worth the price with a wide range of options. Service was great both times we ate here and I would absolutely return again. Thank you to them for also giving my daughter a delicious complimentary dessert to celebrate her birthday! read more

Had a friend in tow who was staying at the Knott's Hotel, so we figured we could give this place a try - I'm glad we did! The burgers were on point! I got the Thirty Acres Burger with the sunny side egg and bacon, and man was it good! The burger was cooked proper. The egg perfectly runny, but not overly so. The fries were perfectly cooked and seasoned, and the burnt ends appetizer we got was also quite good! Their boysenberry cocktail drink menu is also filled with tasty options as well, which is unfortunately why this review has no pictures as we were having such a good time I forgot to snap any. :P The servers were friendly and were quick to check on us and keep the drinks coming - they were well staffed, and things were flowing perfectly. The ambiance is new and clean, I know it's a year or so old now, but it's clear they keep the place up. Lots of seating, and the restaurant is attached to the bar so it's about as close as the kitchen is. In all I was really pleased with everyting about this place and I would certainly return. :) read more

We used to love this restaurant before the renovation and changing to Thirty Acres. This was our first visit back. I don't know if I would return. The atmosphere was great and I love the decorations and updates they made to the restaurant. It looks beautiful. Service was beyond slow. I think our dinner at 7:30pm or so took about an hour and a half. That is asking for disaster with 4 young and tired kids after a day at Knott's. The food was pretty good, but insanely expensive. They used to be pricey but also not crazy, not anymore. Both food and drink prices went up significantly. I love their bbq boysenberry salad usually and it was still good, but way too much boysenberry, and made it way too sweet. Pros: *Close to the park, inside the Knott's Hotel *Nice ambiance Cons: *Expensive *Slow service read more

Thirty Acres Kitchen - Expensive kids menu. $12! And doesn't even include a drink. - Burgers Near Me - Buena Park, California

Thirty Acres Kitchen (inside the Knott's Hotel) is such a pleasant surprise--definitely worth checking out whether you're staying nearby or just visiting the area The space is clean, modern, and beautifully designed with subtle nods to the Knott's Berry Farm theme, which gives it character without feeling overdone. It strikes a really nice balance between casual and elevated. One of the best parts? The happy hour deals--great value, especially considering the quality. And you have to try the boysenberry-infused drinks. They do a great job incorporating that signature Knott's flavor in a way that feels fresh and not overly sweet. Food-wise, the boysenberry chipotle chicken pizza was a standout. The combination of sweet, smoky, and savory flavors worked really well--definitely something unique you won't find just anywhere. Shoutout to Jansky at the bar--super friendly, welcoming, and made the experience even better. Overall: Great atmosphere, creative menu, and excellent service. Whether you're grabbing drinks, happy hour bites, or a full meal, this spot delivers. I'll definitely be back. read more

My husband and I finally had dinner here, after stopping in for drinks so many times. The food is wonderful! The pizza is fantastic. We asked for it crispy and it was so flavorful. The Cobb salad with raspberry dressing was also fantastic. The tortilla soup was good, but I can do without it. We will definitely have dinner here again. We keep talking about the pizza, and this was weeks ago! Service was great and ambiance is elevated, since its inside the hotel. read more

We have not been here in a while so we went to lunch and my husband had a French Dip Sandwich and I had the Colby Salad it included chicken hard boiled egg tomato's bacon crumbles and chicken. I requested to have romaine lettuce only because usually it's a salad mix and I got the apple vinaigrette dressing. There was not so much chicken but it had a lot of tomatoes and bacon crumbles and a lots of romaine lettuce. I could not taste apple in the apple vinaigrette. I don't think I will re order the salad but my husband enjoyed his French Dip. It's a bit pricey but we have been eating here and we have had many delicious options. read more

Went to Thirty Acres Kitchen on a Wednesday evening around 730P. It was fairly busy. We waited for 15 mins (party of 5) This was my kids first time going to this restaurant since they remodeled. It has nice decor and cozy feel. Our server, Enrique got our drink orders and returned promptly. He was nice and offered recommendations on popular choices My husband ordered the Cajun Salmon with garlic broccolini and roasted potatoes. He also got Broccoli Cheddar soup included. I had the Wagon Wheel burger (Angus beef with jack cheese, grilled onions, lettuce, tomatoes, and avocado on brioche bun) & fries. Teenager ordered the Sliders (3 sliders with Angus beef, onion rings, lettuce, tomatoes & horseradish- she said it wasn't overly "horseradishy" and was good. The 2 younger ones ordered a Kids burger with fries & Mac & cheese with fries. The portions were good & we were able to share our fries with my teen and hubby. I was able to get a discount with my Knott's season pass which makes eating here a good deal! Good service, comfortable environment, and good food! read more

Attended during the Valentine's Day special. 3 course meal was delicious and filling. Service started off great, idk if it's because the restaurant got busy, but we finished our meal and waited close to 45 minutes for the check/to make payment.

Context: My husband and I dined here on a Thursday evening during happy hour. There is no posting about happy hour unless you go online. We had to ask for the menu. There were a total of 3 other families eating in the normal restaurant the entire time we were there. Not busy at all, more awkwardly empty. Pros: Free parking located in front of hotel. The restaurant is beautiful and very clean as it was recently renovated. Our bartender made great strong drinks. Service was good. Cons: Pickles were so good, but didn't coming with dipping sauce, we had to ask, and are overpriced for being pickles, even on happy hour. I love sliders and these sliders were not it. The meat was prepared like a Philly cheesesteak sandwich. Onions were crunchy and buns were toasted, but the overly flavor of the sliders were lacking and on the dry side. I also expected these to be on happy hour and they were not. My husband's pizza was super floppy, like bar food pizza, not $16-$25 pizza quality. We live locally and wanted to check this newer restaurant out, but we won't return for the price and quality of food. read more

Stopped by for breakfast before heading to Knott's. Ordered The Old Timer Fried Steak, The Country Biscuits Breakfast, & Shortstack Pancakes with coffee and milk. Food and service were fine. There was a wait to be seated since all the hotel guests want to use their vouchers before heading to the park. Wish they would have more selections for their breakfast menu. read more

On Thursday night, I had dinner with my buddy here. It was my first visit and I made reservation on Open Table. It was spacious with a large selection of tables to choosing from. I liked the menu and the variety of American dishes. Burgers, BBQ, steaks, pizza, salads, and more... Ivette was our server and she was happy and smiled the entire time. I ordered a filet and my buddy ordered the rib eye(I think). We were stuffed. The chicken tortilla soup was on point as well. Unfortunately, we had no room for dessert. I will have to return. read more

Thirty Acres Kitchen - Filet mignon - Burgers Near Me - Buena Park, California

Every time we stay at the knotts hotel this is a restaurant we definitely go to for closeness and the food is pretty tasty. Our most recent visit was during Christmas break, my daughters, husband and myself came in during breakfast and decided on one of their holiday themed meals of the gingerbread pancakes and I decided on a breakfast sandwich and holiday eggnog. Both were great and the drink was a tasty treat to start the day. I will say service was a bit slow. It took 20 minutes just to get a refill on coffee and some water. I know it was busy, but definitely need a little more help during the holiday season. We will be back and overall is a great experience. read more

Thirty Acres Kitchen - These fried pickles were burnt. So sad was excited to try. Sent them back. - Burgers Near Me - Buena Park, California

So we stopped at the Knott's bakery for boysenberry pie and turnovers, and we were looking for a salad spot. It is in the same parking lot as the Knott's hotel. It is very farmer chic in terms of decor and it was decorated so beautifully for the holidays. It is a very calm and relaxed restaurant with a full bar. We ordered the Cobb salad, bbq chicken salad, and bbq rib tips with fries. It was delicious and the salads were made with fresh greens and vegetables. They were perfect portions. The rib tips were tender and easy to eat. The fries were seasoned and crispy. We also ordered the boysenberry swirl cheesecake, which was a great ending to our meal. The service matched this friendly and relaxed spot. Our server was awesome and very attentive. I definitely recommend coming here to eat! read more

This excellent eatery is located inside Knotts Hotel but you don't need to be a guest at the hotel to enjoy a meal here. Free parking is available in a designated area outside the hotel in front of the restaurant. I met a friend here for lunch on a weekday and there were only a couple other tables being served while we were there. We sat in a comfortable booth and I liked the relaxed country vibe of the place. I was initially disappointed to find out no alcohol is served until dinner; I was excited about trying some of the drinks Chris D. mentioned in his review. So I settled for a Knotts Berry Punch, a boysenberry (non-alcoholic) punch that was fantastic. As a lunch entree I chose the pulled pork sandwich which came with fries. I appreciated the bun not being overly large but the enormous amount of pulled pork, crunchy onion straws, and bleu cheese coleslaw overflowed onto the plate. I was able to pick up and eat the sandwich and then eat the massive overflow on the plate with a fork. It was delicious although the touted "bold" bbq sauce was barely there. The fries were excellent. Almost full, we both decided to share a dessert and opted for the caramel apple crunch cobbler. Amazing. A warm, crunchy apple cobbler with vanilla bean ice cream covered in caramel sauce and a cookie on top. Each bite made me weep tears of joy. Service here was top shelf and I'm embarrassed to say I've forgotten our waitress's name as she did a magnificent job and I would have liked to have given her special recognition. I'll definitely be coming back (next time for dinner and the boysenberry booze). *** Note: on a subsequent visit I enjoyed a Boysenberry Mule, an excellent cocktail. The Wagon Wheel Burger was superb. Apparently on my first visit the bartender called off and they had no one to cover. Normally alcohol is served at lunch. read more

I do miss Amber Waves but glad that Thirty Acres is there and the bar is open back up. The food changed a bit but they do still have some favorites such as the daily soups, apps, and pizzas. The burgers are pretty tasty as well. We usually grab food and drinks and sit at the bar. There is plenty of seating around and a nice remodeled patio with a good amount of outdoor seating. The staff is as wonderful as ever, super friendly and helpful and the service is great. They really make you feel like you are at home. And they make some mean cocktails. Cannot wait to see how they do the haunted lounge overlay on the patio this year during haunt. For sure one of our favorite places to go to when we head up North!!! read more

Thirty Acres Kitchen - Burgers Near Me - Buena Park, California

After reading the reviews from other Yelpers and Chris D., my wife and I were craving some good burgers for lunch on Sunday and decided to try out Thirty Acres Kitchen. I'm glad we did. For an amusement park hotel restaurant, they make some really good burgers. It was mostly empty at 11:00 a.m. and the place is very clean and has nice booths. They asked us how we would like the patties cooked and we both said medium. They were cooked medium well. Next time we will ask for medium rare (LOL!). The battered fries were very good too. We look forward to returning again when we are hankering for a good burger and fries. read more

I've been twice now and can say I'm a fan. It's in the Knott's Berry Farm hotel. Parking is free and the restaurant is on the right hand side of the lobby. There's booths, tables, and a long bar. Since this restaurant is pretty new and I have barely seen another human being eating here everything looks and feels brand spanking new. Even the little folder they bring your bill is doesn't open so easy because it hasn't been opened enough to stretch out the folded part. As somebody who grew up with Knott's Berry Farm annual passes followed by working there for 6 years it has a warm spot in my heart. I also love everything boysenberry probably due to the brainwashing I was subjected to in those 6 years. This restaurant has a whole menu of boysenberry themed cocktails, boysenberry entrees, and boysenberry desserts! First visit my wife and I took my mom who's also a boysenberry nut. My wife and I ordered the boysenberry BBQ chicken salad which was loaded with bbq chicken, roasted corn, black beans, tomatoes, cheese, lettuce, avocado, tortilla strips, and croutons. It was served with a chipotle dressing. Seriously good stuff and a huge portion. My wife and I both really enjoyed it and I would order again. My mom who's a vegetarian was happy to see any of their large variety of hamburgers could be made with a veggie patty so she ordered a burger with fresh cut fries and loved it. My mom and I finished with a boysenberry gelato which was delicious. I had the boysenberry margarita which was good but the tajin seasoning didn't really pair with the boysenberry flavor but it did pack a big punch and I was buzzin'. My wife had the boysenberry spritzer which was seriously tasty. Second visit a few weeks later I started with a cup of "chili soup". Sounded odd but I love chili. It's exactly how it sounds, watery chili. Still, it was chunky and I actually liked it. Was heavy on the chili seasonings but I can see some not liking it. For my entre I took a gamble and ordered the salmon. For $27 this was a huge portion and I was surprised how good it was. Huge slab of skin-on blacked salmon covered in cajun seasoning. It was topped with two shrimp and a cream sauce. Then I was able to pick two sides, I went with broccolini and bluecheese coleslaw. I really loved it and thought it was a great deal. My wife had their pulled pork BBQ sandwich and swapped the fries with a side salad. I took a few bites and thought it was great. For drinks I had the Boysenberry Smash and my wife had the "Sip of sunshine". Again, we were buzzin. Good pours here. You'd assume this would be some crappy tourist trap but honestly it's a really good restaurant! I've been twice and can't wait to return again! Prices are average for restaurants these days, service great, easy parking, and comfortable atmosphere. You'll feel like you rented the place to yourself since you'll most likely be the only people there! Also on OpenTable if you want to earn some points! Lobby of hotel has a gift shop that sells sugar free boysenberry punch concentrate! There's also a mini Starbucks. read more

Decent breakfast but a bit pricey at $40 for pancakes and fruit (they even charged me $5 for a "fountain drink" for tap water. They said it was "filtered". You are better off buying a bottled water from the store next door. Oh, and my tap water had a hair on it. Pancakes were $13.75 for 3 (tall stack). The short stack is like $2 less. Fruit plate was good. They do a Knotts discount so remember to scan your code. (This restaurant is open to non guests as well). Their bar is open pretty late (midnight on weekends). But, no kids meals at a kids hotel? How is that possible? (I called). This hotel also has no microwaves. Outback and Olive Garden have kids meals to go near by. And there's also portrillos w hot dogs etc. Just remember not to get the $6 Olive Garden to go meals due to no microwaves at the hotel... They have a shortened breakfast express menu to put on your door. They have room service as well as dining in. Room service was 40-45 min whereas to go was 20 for breakfast. There was a wait for dining in at 9:30am on a Sunday but the restaurant is pretty big. There's a Starbucks counter next to the bar out front. read more

We were excited to visit the restaurant today. The park was super busy, so we went to the restaurant to get some relief. The restaurant is beautiful! The staff was also very welcoming and friendly. They have plenty of menu options catering to many different tastes. It was hard to choose, but this is what we ended up with: My husband got the Berry Farm Burger which he really enjoyed. I got the Parmesan turkey sandwich which was decent. I didn't like the American cheese on it. If I got it again, I'd get it with a different cheese. Otherwise the sandwich was good. The fries I got were soggy and cold, my husbands were as well. My son got the pepperoni pizza. It's a nice size, definitely enough to share or save some for later. My daughter got the grilled cheese. It was nothing special, just your basic grilled cheese. Her fries however were hot and crispy. Our food came out later than the kids, so maybe we had the same batch of fries but ours were just sitting in the cup getting soggy. I also got a side of the broccolini. Unfortunately the garlic that was cooked with it was burnt. The broccolini was so greasy too that I couldn't eat it. Unfortunately they were cold as well. The restaurant wasn't very busy. But they are in their first few weeks of opening. So perhaps they're still working out some kinks. Based on the food alone, I'd probably give them 3 stars. But the ambiance, presentation, and staff bumped them up a star. I hope to get to come back in the near future to try something else out with better results. Oh and next time I'll remember to get my Passholder discount. Since I was at a restaurant I didn't even think about it. I wish I had gotten a reminder. :( read more

Enjoyed a delicious and convenient breakfast at 30 Acres Kitchen. The breakfast buffet looked delicious and was quite extensive. Since we were planning on a day of roller coaster rides at Knott's Berry Farm, we opted for individual breakfast entrees. The restaurant is beautiful and we were seated right away. Kids drank apple juice and orange juice and we started with mugs of coffee. Our server was very friendly and attentive make sure our drinks were topped off and bringing over the toast with whipped butter and boysenberry jam. We ordered the country sunrise omelet and the chicken fried steak, and the kids shared a breakfast burrito. The country fried steak was perfectly cooked and smothered with gravy. We love spinach and mushrooms in our omelets, and this one did not disappoint. The breakfast burrito was filling and very tasty. It was a great way to start off our day at Knott's Berry hotel, and we'll definitely dine here again. read more

Service could not have been better. Corinna and Natalia were amazing, as were the bussers! Ambiance was chill, quite comfortable, and welcoming. Seating was comfortable. The only and only issues was the table could have been wiped down better. But that was quickly and politely taken care of when I asked. The food was delicious! I had the Hot Hen sandwich. It's served with blue cheese coleslaw. I don't care for blue cheese, so I omitted it. So, I have no idea how the coleslaw was. I did ask for extra hot sauce and a side of ranch dressing. It made for great dipping. Hubby ordered the Turkey sandwich, served on parmasean toasted bread, and added avocado. Both dishes came with french fries, and they were warm and crispy. For beverages, we both had Titos and Sprite with limes. Tab was right $65.00 bucks. Parking was free and easy. They have three menus. Breakfast from I believe 6 to 11:30 than lunch menu till 4 and the 4 to closing was the dinner menu. We ordered during lunch. Looking forward to ordering off the other two menus soon! read more
