Orange, California Restaurant Reviews

Tastes Around Orange #2

One of our favorite Sunday morning breakfast destinations if Arthur’s Family Restaurant in Orange.  Arthur’s serves down to earth home cooking for Breakfast and Lunch every day, along with Dinner Thursday through Saturday.  Their claim to fame is that they have the best breakfast in town.  I’m sure there are some that would disagree, but in my opinion they are one of the best.  This isn’t frou frou snob breakfast, this is what you expect from a greasy spoon, plain ol’ good cooking like you would expect to get at home.

For our visit this past weekend Mrs. DanGarion ordered one of her usuals, the Country Benedict ($9.29).

Arthur's Country Benedict
Three fresh-baked biscuits, three poached eggs, and ham. Served with potatoes and a fruit cup.

I ordered something I don’t get that often, but always enjoy when I do, Chicken and Waffles (@$10.29)

Arthur's Chicken and Waffles
Two pieces of Broasted Chicken, served along with a waffle.

I paid a bit extra to have two breasts, but that’s just my preference.  You can choose to have two thighs as well.  Also you have the option of 4 pieces of chicken (!!!) and 1/2 or 1 full waffle.  The Broasted chicken was cooked perfect, with a golden brown and delicious crunch on the outside and juicy on the inside.  The chicken tastes great to each with the waffles because of the sweet and savory mixture.  I highly suggest to try it.  This is what made Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffles in Los Angeles famous, I suggest trying them too!

Service is always pretty good at Arthur’s, but we might have the advantage that most of the wait stuff knows us because we have gone there for about 4 years now.

As for their lunch and dinner, I highly suggest trying one of their burgers, they aren’t the gourmet type burger you will find at Haven Gastropub, but something about them really impresses me.  And if you order a dinner you have to get the Bread Pudding as your dessert, in my opinion is the best bread pudding served in all of OC.  Funny story they took the bread pudding off the menu a couple of months ago and public outrage and notes on receipts made them bring it back!  Win for the customers!
