Pick Up Stix Mission Viejo, CA
When I review a restaurant I try to compare it to restaurants of it's type and not compare family restaurants against fine dining restaurants. So my remarks about Pick Up Stix is a little more harsh than some people would critic. The food is very average. It is production line type Chinese food. The menu is fairly limited. I would rather spend my money for Chinese food elsewhere (there are members of my family that love this place). Those are the negatives. The positives are: very affordable, large portions and lightning quick service. But I still think it is just average or a little below when you compare it to other Chinese restaurants.

Mimis Cafe Chino, CA
This has to be one of the most pleasant family dining type restaurants in the area. They have great food. Their waiters and waitresses are all young and sometimes aren't as professional as I would like, but they all are trained by Mimi's and are all very courteous. Among the food items that are great here are their "Pot Roast", it's just outstanding. They have a 1000 Island dressing that I've never found anything close to anywhere else. They serve a great "French Onion Soup" daily and on Fridays they have the "Best Clam Chowder" around. Visit their website to get some free recipes. Try their breakfasts which are all great. They even have a healthy "Vegetarian Omelette" made with egg substitute for the healthy conscious. Their children's menu is great, so bring the kids.

Country Harvest Buffet Upland, CA
Are you tired of buffets that treat you like a production line? This is one place where you won't get that feeling. The food is on smaller food islands which are accessable from either side. The food here is good (one entree doesn't taste like the next one), and the selections are rotated from day to day. They have special discounts for seniors, and cater to families with small children. The kids will love the dessert bar which will allow them to tailor make their own sundaes.

The Hofbrau San Bernardino, CA
If you enjoy German food, this is the place to go in the entire inland empire. The food is very authentic and the atmosphere is delightfully German. The service is very professional.

Pasta Bravo Laguna Niguel, CA
This is the place to go for the freshest pasta around. Fresh pasta salads or fresh salads (although why go to a Pasta house for this), Hot pasta, it's all here at affordable prices. They also do catering and have take out service. This is good food, but authentic Italian food. But this is Southern California dining for those on the go.
Acapulco Mexican Restaurants Laguna Niguel Laguna Niguel, CA
This is the finest Mexican restaurant chain in the entire southwest (and some northwest locations). But don't go here for the normal tamales, enchiladas, burritos et. al. Try the innovative dishes like "Tequila Lime Chicken (or Shrimp) Fajitas" or "Enchiladas stuffed with Shrimp". There is always something new on their menu. You don't have to have your entree with "Refried Beans", try "Frijoles Negros" or "Frijoles Charros". Look for discount coupons in the local Sunday papers, they give you a second entree for $1.49. Visit their website to see what new items will be on the menu. This is one of my favorite locations (near work).
Bella Cucina Restaurant Anaheim, CA
An Italian restaurant with a romantic and intimate atmosphere. The master chef has been here for over 25 years. This is fine Italian dining. Veal entrees at under $15.00! Dress is casual. Wonderful service.
Captain Greenhorn's Restaurant And Lounge Anaheim, CA
When you look for this restaurant, its real name is "Captain Greenhorn's". They feature steak, chicken entrees and fresh seafood. My warning here is that as wonderful as the food is, it is typical hotel pricing where they feel they have a captive crowd, so it will be a little overpriced. But it is good enough to pamper yourself with once in a while.

Outback Steakhouse Brea, CA
The food here is excellent, but there are so many really top notch steakhouses in the area that you don't have to pay the higher rices for the smaller portions that you find here. A lot of steakhouses tend to be noisy and this one is no exception. It is noisy and somewhat rowdy, but fun. It is worth the visit, since the food is good, the service is good, and it is a great place for the family.
