   More like 1.5 stars. Money not well spent. The food was all over the place: the brussel sprouts, patatas bravas and fries were good. The Dino ribs were fun to look at, but were too heavily seasoned in parts, and just tasted like dry pot roast. The scallops were laughably small. When the price says "MP" next to it it's safe to assume you're getting 3-4 good diver scallops. But no, I got 3 that were barely bigger than the size of a quarter. The short rib tagliatelle was not bad, but not good. And oddly creamy. The Caesar salad had so much shredded parm on top you couldn't see what was underneath, and my daughter (who loves Caesar salads) could barely eat it. We could tolerate the mediocre food if the service and vibe were good. However, the music was all unpopular 80s songs (not the good ones), and waitress seemed nice but she was hardly ever there. We had two empty water carafes for the entirety of the meal. She offered to switch out our dirty plates after the apps, then left us holding our dirty utensils (we had cloth napkins and nowhere to put them) for 15 min until she came back with clean plates. Also, the plates are so small - maybe 5-6" across? When the Dino ribs came it was hard to balance them on the tiny plates. And the utensils are weirdly long, so it's a mismatch with the tiny plates. One last thing - the restaurant was nearly empty the entire time we were there, so the slow food arrival time and nearly non-existent service made no sense at all. Just a sad, lackluster vibe. We went to celebrate my mom's bday (which I’d written under their requested notes section when I made the res here) but there was no mention of it. I had planned on ordering a dessert for my mom, but we were all so over it that by the time they asked, we said no because we were so eager to just leave and cut our losses early. Do not recommend and we won’t be back again.

   Outstanding from start to finish, welcomed with a warm greeting when we walked through the door, server was very knowledgeable of the entire menu, gave us great recommendations in which we ordered, oxtail and rib eye were awesome, bartender made a couple great cocktails to pair with the meal, definitely returning and bringing more friends to experience Griffins!

   Griffins absolutely nailed it tonight. The ribeye was perfectly seared, tender and juicy. The crispy brussels sprouts were delicious. My favorite dish was the patatas bravas. They were golden and crispy with the most amazing aioli. So good we ordered seconds! Definitely a place worth coming back to.

   My first time, I really loved the food, the ribeye and the potatoes really hit the spot. I’ll be back soon.

   This is a gem that delivers a chef-driven dining experience with a cozy, upscale vibe. The ribeye is a standout—perfectly cooked, tender, and bursting with flavor, especially when paired with its chimichurri. The meatballs are a comfort food, juicy and well-seasoned. The patatas bravas bring a delightful twist to the classic tapas, with crispy potatoes complemented by a smoky, spicy sauce that’s addictive without overwhelming. Each dish showcases quality ingredients and thoughtful execution, making Griffin’s a spot worth revisiting for a flavorful night out.

   Customer service was fantastic! I started off with a Pink Pomy Cocktail which was absolutely delicious…Loved the sour kick of the pomegranate…For a starter I went with the Caesar Salad, which I loved because of the added lemon…Then, I ordered the Shrimp Tacos because I was interested in trying the Papaya Coleslaw and it didn’t disappoint…I”m not a sweets fan but my friend ordered the Strawberry Cheesecake Parfait, they loved it so I tried a bite and it was very good!!!… I can’t wait to come back and try some other items in their menu…Ask your server about their Loyalty Program, you get $20 of your meal, not your next meal but this meal, we all know that never happens!!!

   Delicious food. The rib eye is amazing. It is served with some kind of potatoes that are likewise delicious.

   Griffins in Brea is a true local gem! The ribeye is incredible—every dish is flavorful and thoughtfully prepared. The service is friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. Perfect for date nights, dinners with friends, or just treating yourself. Definitely a spot you’ll want to come back to again and again!

   Can’t recommend this place enough. We order the Burrata which was really good. We shared the Ribeye and Ceviche which were both incredible. Our service was on point and the drinks were awesome. My favorite was Danger is my middle name. You should try it!
