Really good food. I had mole and aezcal mule! Great service.
They would not accept my Open Table $20 certificate.
It was delicious. Everything we ordered was amazing. Will definitely come back
It’s a cute place with great food and drinks. Our waiter was great as well. We ordered the esquite very different to what I’ve had before but it was great. The enchiladas, chilaquiles con huevos divorciados, the guava French toast were amazing and the pitcher of tangerine, rum and sparkling water was great. Definitely coming back!
Chilaquiles were delicious!
Great food! Love the Ceviche. . Looking forward to trying the tacos next time. The only we had was the loud music, hard to hear each other.
Amazing authentic Mexican food! The drinks were the best drinks I have ever had! Great music I wanted to dance all night.
Excellent service, food and drinks! Accidentally drove to the wrong location and was a few minutes late to our reservation making it to the right location. They accommodated us right away despite this. Orders came out extremely quick and the bartender even suggested a custom passionfruit drink when I had gone through all the other fruity ones on the menu. Hidden gem, great ambiance and will definitely be back! Thank you for the hospitality!! :)
They have a great menu. Reinventing Mexican cuisine. Miguel is a fantastic and innovative bartender.
I look forward to my next visit to Anepalco. Always perfect.
Best restaurant in Orange! Definitely recommend to anyone who loves Mexican fusion.
Had a little valentines date here and both my husband and I loved everything. Food, service, ambiance! Great place! Will definitely be coming back!
This is the second time my husband’s favorite dish (perdidos) has been served to him cold. Not sure what’s going on, but it’s unfortunate. The servers were nice and removed from the bill, but I ate my entire meal before the new one came out. Appreciate the effort, but disappointing.
The vibe was great excellent service. Went for valentine's dinner date, we absolutely loved the cocktails bartender was on point each drink we ordered was so good! I feel like the food is where it was lacking flavor was ok and would not recommend the agua chile you only get a nicely decorated plate with 4 shrimp on it. Guacamole had stale chips in it. I will be going back but maybe only for the drinks and friendly service.
Music was sooooo loud on patio for only 2 pods of diners.
Amazing as always
I normally really enjoy this place even though restaurant. But idk of it’s because of Covid or what the difference was this time around. But definitely not the same vibe at all. Food was good although limited menu which was disappointing. And drinks were just alright versus normally everything is great! I would suggest if you’re thinking about visiting wait till they’re serving their regular menu. Also it’s very noisy if you sit outside. So you may want to opt for indoor seating.
Pre bday breakfast
Excellent service with excellent chef prepared food.
Good food & ambience, sat outdoors & enjoyed our experience
Anepalco is consistently amazing. The service, food, drinks, atmosphere. You just can’t go wrong!
Food and drinks were great, as well as the service!
Had a great time celebrating my moms birthday! Great service
Our 1 year anniversary!!
Amazingly creative cocktails and even more incredible brunch cuisine. The Chilaquiles are so unique and done thing everyone should try. I have a hard time ordering anything else even though the other items are amazing as well (French toast and perdita (duck potato and egg casserole).
Only offered outside seating but no heat lamps. Was freezing outside. Service was quick but will only go back here if they offer inside dinning.
Hope this excellent dining spot stays open with so much closures during this pandemic,
Great restaurant, original and tasty food (Mexican fusion), excellent service.
I’m so excited this location is open again! Love their food and the service is always excellent.
This is our 'go to' restaurant when in the area. The guacamole is outstanding! We ordered a pitcher of hibiscus margaritas - very tasty but there was so much ice that it really diluted the drink. The individual drinks are more balanced. The carne asada with potato cakes was our hands down favorite entree - perfectly cooked medium rare steak and to die for potatoes. The tacos were also delicious. We look forward to our next visit!
Outstanding! The mole was delicious and the service was gracious. We will be back!
Very good food & service. Good menu selection. Noise a bit more than I prefer but overall I would definitely go again
Had great birthday brunch and drinks, we can’t wait to go back!
I've heard about this restaurant for quite a while and finally tried it. The food was much more imaginative than most Mexican restaurants here in OC. Portions were well sized and the food was delicious. Good margarita too. Our waiter was excellent. We'll be back.
Consistently amazing food and great drinks.
A modern mexican restaurant is exactly how I would describe Anepalco. Loved the decor and ambience. Their house margarita is the bomb! The food presentation is outstanding and, although a bit spicy, it was very tasty too!
Customer service is great. Very prompt and attentive.
Amazing food, great service — a little pricey but worth every penny
Best real Mexican food I've had anywhere, by a clear mile.
Party of 11, everyone was shocked with the quality of the food.
The most delicious, gourmet Mexican food in LA/OC ! Highly recommended!
