SPOONS GRILL & BAR REVIEWS

This place is pretty cool. Staff is always nice and eager to serve. The classic club is my go-to. The atmosphere would be a 5, but the last time I was there, this one guy was so loud and obnoxious it was not pleasant.

Spectacular customer service, delicious food, and their homemade fried banana dessert is a must have. Definitely a gem. I highly reccomend coming. Come for good drinks, food, they even have live bands. Good location right off the freeway.

Again, it's a great place, Taco Tuesdays, plenty of TVs to catch a game or two. They also have separate seating outside the bar area, maybe for a little quieter dinner.

PLAYBOOK SPORTS BAR REVIEWS

Best place around. Owner is cool and the music is magic. Try their burger it's fire!.

We stopped in for happy hour and were not disappointed. Such a fun bar with quality drinks, food that hit the spot, and super friendly and kind staff - our server Che took care of us!.

Top tier drinks, modern clean venue, very kind and patient staff. The bar tenders are characters and friendly. Our party rudely overstayed, and we were not made to feel rushed or unwelcome. I'll be coming back many times.

MISSION BAR REVIEWS

Best bar in Santa Ana, been here three nights in a row. If you‘re into beer, this is your spot in SA. They have a selection of like 15+ draft beers, staff is always friendly and down to have a drink and chat. Also pool and karaoke! The bouncers are super chill and hung out with us all the time. Definitely my go-to spot when I‘m in the area.

The bartenders are always awesome here! Such an amazing environment, never seen any fights break out while I was here. I now live in the high desert and will drive down here to enjoy a night out with friends.

Quick tip: Plan bathroom breaks ahead of time lol they have some but its single stall! After a few pints, waiting times can be agonizing lmao.
