Went there with a group of 12 people, ages 7 to 66. Every single person in the group LOVED their meal. The portions were huge, and the service was excellent. They were out of an item that my daughter ordered, and went above and beyond to make it up to her. We will definitely go back the next time we are in Anaheim. Highly recommend this restaurant!

Waiter was great, but too busy. One of the plates came out with really rare meat and by the time it was corrected everyone else was just about done eating. He was as attentive as he could be, but we were out on the patio and he was handling 3 tables and 2 large parties. There should’ve been someone to assist. We almost didn’t make our event on time and we gave ourselves 2 hours with the reservation.
