    Our family had a birthday dinner for my husband last night at Summit House. It was amazingly busy for a weeknight. But, the noise level was at a low level, not bad. The service was excellent and our dinner was delicious. Each one of us had something different to eat and we were all very happy with our meals! So happy we were able to get a reservation on the exact day of his birthday. I am going to get one for our anniversary in December. It is really beautiful at the holidays.

    We had a great meal and a great time. Our bus person was exceptionally friendly. I hope the tips are shared, as he was a good portion of our overall excellent experience. All of our server team was excellent. We sat outside, so we were insulated from the inside noise. The heater was turned on without question, when we asked. Pricey, but well worth it for the quality of food and service.

    I had the striped bass, someone had salmon and 2 others had the filet mignon. The entrées were delicious, and so was the salad and french onion soup. The creamed corn that was included was excellent. So were the desserts! We were celebrating an anniversary and the complementary dessert was yummy, too! The service was also great! We will definitely come back!

    Summit House is our go to special occasion place and we have never been disappointed. However, serving sea bass and stating it is served “John Dory Style” does not make it taste like John Dory.

    Summit House gave away the booth I had requested when I made our reservation in late July; had to settle for a table. It appears that reserving a booth via Open Table doesn't work.

    Celebrated my birthday dinner here with hubby and friends. Staff gave me a birthday card and free dessert. Dinner (get the prime rib), staff, ambience was excellent! They have a limited wine selection and parking (walking from overflow parking at the bottom can be a trek); otherwise, everything else was wonderful!

    Once you arrive you make your way to the legendary red door. Head to check in and you are met with a polite hello by a hostess that really makes you feel welcomed. Arriving early and you get to take a short walk around the beautiful property as you take in the scenic view. Your reservation is about 5 minutes away so you get back to the entrance and you are called by name. Your table is ready. The host escorts you to your table. The room is small, about ten tables with a wonderful view the chairs are super comfy and the staff makes sure that you are aware, prepare to be pampered. The food, service and atmosphere is wonderful. Ahhhhhh, such coffee to end out the feast. Pay the check, and go for a walk, enjoy the view. What a night

    My wife and I celebrated our wedding anniversary this past weekend at The Summit House and our experience was very memorable. We were able to get seating outside in the private patio area, which the ambience even more special because there weren't too many people around us and we had a beautiful view of Orange County as the sun was setting. Our server, Cameron, was great and was attentive to all of our needs and he was very pleasant to talk to as well. He even took good care of my 8yo daughter and gave her her very first Shirley Temple drink! My wife and I were very pleased with our prime rib dinner, which was delicious and very satisfying. We even got a complimentary dessert for our anniversary, which was so decadent! We will definitely be back soon!

    Took a friend there for her birthday. We enjoyed ever minute of it. Food was outstanding and the service even better. I recommended the Summit House to friends and they all agree it’s a hidden gem of Fullerton. The view is spectacular over looking the sparkling city lights. Great place for a romantic evening or a quite cozy night with friends and loved ones. Oh, show up with an empty stomach, the portions are a good size. Great value for the money.

    The server was very robotic and ungenuine, to a point making it awkward. I ordered a lot of items and was unable to finish but he never asked me if I wanted them packaged to go and they were thrown out! I was not happy because our French onion soups were amazing and jst thrown in the trash barely touched. It’s not a complete waste but it could of easily been avoided I’m sure guests have leftovers all the time. When I asked him where my soups were he jst made a sound like ohh never asked to replace them or anything. Overall my experience would of been better with a different server.
