Restaurants near Budget Inn Anaheim/Santa Ana

We had our Thanksgiving steak here today! What an amazing experience. This isn’t our first time to Ruth’s Chris, and again, they have surpassed service expectations. It was a busy day at the restaurant, but nothing slipped by our wait staff. Our server Bao was amazing, he recommended items, checked on us just the right amount and made sure that all of our needs were met! His assistant Izzy, never let our water or bread go low, and took great care of us from the beginning. Izzy made sure Bread and water was on the table in no time flat…..ooohhh that warm bread is so good! We ordered cocktails, hubby got an Old Fashioned and I ordered the seasonal Pomegranate Martini. Both were great. Truth be told, mine was so good, I ordered a second with dinner! We started with appetizers (crab stuffed mushrooms -divine!) and soup for him, chopped salad for me. For the main course, Hubby had the Cowboy medium rare and said it was perfection, I had the filet medium with the blue cheese crust…heaven. On the side we ordered the au Gratin potatoes (Bao’s recommendation) and the Roasted Brussels everything was so good! The potatoes are heavenly and a nice change from the lobster Mac we normally have. We finished the night off sharing a crème brûlée with a cup of coffee for me and tea for him. Taking our “doggie bag” home to enjoy leftovers tomorrow. No way could we eat all that food in one sitting!

Our server was excellent and everyone was very attentive. We weren't rushed and had a nice Thanksgiving dinner. The dressing was good, wasn't too fond of the turkey though. I love their hot rolls! The pumpkin cheesecake was TO DIE FOR, and even though I am not a bread pudding fan, this one was good! We finished with French press decaf! Yum! You can also order off their FABULOUS seafood or steak menu. We stuck with traditional Thanksgiving fixe meal. I always enjoy dining at the Water Grill.

It’s just a good experience all the way around. Professional staff! That makes it.

Our first time at this restaurant. Felt very welcomed the moment we walked in. Our server Bryan gave us an amazing experience by showing us their menu and giving us recommendations and telling us his favorite dishes. Also being very interactive with us which we enjoyed. Food was amazing we started off with the Country Fried Texas Quill then BLT Wedge Salad for our main course the 58 oz Cowboy Ribeye with a side of Lobster Mac and Cheese. We will definitely be coming back.

Food was fantastic and Scotty, our server, was professional, attentive and very friendly!! His suggestions on what to order were spot on!! Puesto is one of our favorite places to eat!!
