“I absolutely love black market meal prep. They have saved me so much time I have still allowed me to eat healthy while at work. As a first responder, I don’t always have time To go to a restaurant to eat, so having my food with me Makes my life easier. Between the chimichurri sauce, and the green salsa, I swear I could eat every meal with that. The service is always on point. I actually found a workaround for the straws because I love their smoothies and protein shakes but yes, they are a little bit thick for the straws. So I ended up bringing my own straw which are a little bit thicker. I bought them off of Amazon after California decided to make everything out of paper. Keep up the phenomenal work black market, I love your food and your service.“

“What a wonderful experience ! Had to come back after coming in I came in December when the lake had its Christmas tree lightening. I can't and have stopped talking about the bacon covered stuffed dates and how the food was hot and fresh in everything that was ordered. Yesterday I came in with someone who hasn't experienced and lives near the one in yorba linda. With the experience, atmosphere and delicious food he's making sure to attend his local. Miles our server was the absolute best!!! I mean just down right genuine! He was able to catch on with our humor and laugh. When you have employees like this it just makes experience being there and the people your with so much better. We also asked for his opinion on selections for our meal. Instead of saying "I don't know" he was able to pick something from each section in what he enjoys but also what other customers truly enjoy. Having this knowledge and able to share just puts a little more confidence in what you are choosing. I split the pastrami dip sandwich with my friend and we both found it down right delicious. the pickles on that amazing. The dipping sauce was amazing too and I couldn't decide to dip or not. My husband got the chipotle sandwich which was amazing especially the sauce. With that I will definitely be back-hopefully to get pictures next time- but also will be checking for miles to be our guy if he's working!“

“The brunch is excellent! The brunch serves breakfast as well as lunch items so if you stay long enough you get two meals out of it. Last week they had prime rib! The bottomless mimosas are actually very good - they don't taste like the cheap stuff. I can't wait to invite friends to discover this place and will for sure be coming here regularly.“

“I came with my two daughters on Taco Tuesday, and WOW. Their tacos are chef's kiss. Not to mention, the drinks are phenomenal! The Mango Tea and Berry Spritz mocktails are delicious, and the house margarita is amazing. The carnitas tacos are to die for, and the shrimp is terrific. They're tender, and just wow. If you're into spicy food, you should definitely get the chipotle chicken taco. The servers are extremely nice people, and very polite. While the service is slightly slow, it is totally worth it! Overall, this place is amazing. I am definitely coming here regularly!“

“This place is really great if you wanna see a movie. This is a very fancy place for me and all of the movies I've seen here have had great environments! The only thing I'd say is sometimes I do notice that the floor is somewhat sticky which is why I put it down to 4 instead of 5. Another thing is that the service is generally really great! I haven't really gotten around to trying any of the food, but I hear it's pretty good.“

“The cheesesteak was like I remembered having as a kid, and hoped for. Even better, my child was having a rough time tonight and the employee at the register was attentive, kind and patient with kiddo, making our day much better. I'll be back just for that - kindness goes a long way.“

“Great restaurant. From the hostess/host to wait staff to cooks & Managers, everyone is so friendly & hard working. Big shout out to our waitress Carrie, she's wonderful! Great menu, as there's a lot of food & beverage items to choose from. The Pizookie is their signature dessert, delicious! The prices & portion sizes are really good, plus they have a rewards program. It is one of our favorite go-to restaurants for any occasion.“
