Don’t let the name fool you. 8 Steers of Santa Ana is not just a steakhouse, though the steaks are fantastic. Every dish here is top-notch, using the freshest ingredients and most innovative cooking techniques. And that includes the drink selection, with items like the Gummi bear martini and fruit loop vodka. The martini hour special offers $5 martinis and reduced priced appetizers. These include Kobe beef and pork belly sliders, parmesan and garlic encrusted fries, and even 8 Steers own delectable breaded fish sticks.

April 15, 2013 by

If you live in Santa Ana, you’ve probably already heard of Thasos Greek Island Grille. The wildly popular and affordable foodie haunt has been setting the pace for other Greek restaurants throughout the state of California. Already touting the title “Best Greek Food” in Orange County, Thasos can also brandish a recent study that Greek food has many health benefits. For health conscious Californians, Thasos takes the already healthful cuisine and prepares it using fresh ingredients that are grilled, not fried. For lunch and dinner the menu offers light and hearty options, including the delicious hummus and pita and bundle sandwiches in which options like lamb and herbed ground beef are wrapped in warm pita.

Anaheim Brewery: Historic Suds

April 8, 2013 by

Anaheim Brewery likes to think of itself as a 140-year old company that just opened.

After Prohibition shut down their taps in 1920, a full 90 years passed before the doors opened again. It has picked up where it left off, too, making classic beer served in a relaxed and chatty tasting room. With an emphasis on traditional techniques and quality ingredients, the selection is a solid spectrum of flavor that will satisfy every taste. The tasting room is a great place to sample these wares, and they're happy to sell you a six-pack, growler, or to take home. A true gem of the historic Anaheim Colony, the Anaheim Brewery is bringing the refreshment of classic beer to a grateful and thirsty community. Try some for yourself– you'll agree that it was worth the wait!
