    We had Sloppy Khan appetizer. Wow such wonderful spices! Malai (cheese) naan was freshly baked and so scrumptious. Chicken Karahi for our main dish was amazing, full of flavor and just the right heat. Chocolate Samosa dessert was decadently yummy! We live in OC, but there are so many interesting things on the menu we want to try, we're coming back!

    Excellent food, service, and experience! Enjoyed the most amazing ribeye steak, cooked to perfection. We had the opportunity to share several menu items, and all were amazing! Our servers and bartender were knowledgeable about the menu items and made the perfect dinner and drink recommendations for all of us. The chef also made it a point to meet with us and ask us about experience. I highly recommend Griffin’s for casual dining and any special occasion!

    We have been coming here since it opened along with its sister restaurant Cha Cha's, just a few doors down. Our favorite spot if it is just the two of us is the bar. The bartenders have changed over the years, but the caliber of service has not. If you arrive late for a drink & dinner, you are never rushed...actually I hadn't even realized we were the last as my husband and I asked about different liquors we hadn't noticed before. You can't go wrong with the Almafi Fizz, my favorite and one of their signature drinks. Their food is outstanding, love the scallops! Last night we went for my husband's birthday...it was Monday night special, lasagna, garlic bread & Caesar salad for I believe was $20. I can eat, yet I took half of it home! My husband loves their chicken parmesan...he too took half home and was pleased that they presented him with tiramisu & a candle for his birthday...the extra touch appreciated! Yes, I would give them a 10! We will be back next week for a relaxing dinner or maybe Cha Cha's for a little more noise... let's face it, tacos, tequila brings the noise level up!
