    The hostess wasn’t very welcoming, but everyone else was super friendly! Including the man who seated us and the man who cleared our dishes. Our server Cameron was excellent! He was attentive, always smiling, and super nice to my elderly parents and my toddler. The food was excellent and a great value for the prime rib special. Everyone’s meat was cooked correctly as we each had requested different temps. We requested food for our toddler that was not on the kids menu (different sauce) and they were accommodating. We had to be in the ballroom due to the outside air quality, which we appreciated, so it was different than being in the typical dining room but it was fine. We can’t wait to come back!

    Dined here with two friends for my birthday. I had dined here once before two months ago and returned because of the lobster bisque. The first time I also ordered a medium rare filet mignon, it was under seasoned. Last night I ordered the salmon and it was perfectly cooked. The skin was crisp and the fish was juicy cooked perfectly to about a medium well. The cranberry sauce it came with was winner. We were able to order the seasonal pumpkin old fashioned, which I lived on my first visit. My friend also loved it. My other friend ordered the spicy mezcal cocktail, something bells. That was also great! We also ordered a steak tartare to start and it was okay, we felt it needed something other than the egg yolk, maybe a light vinaigrette drizzle. My friend ordered a side Mac and cheese and it was not cheesy. She also ordered a crab cake for her meal as she does not eat a lot, she absolutely loved it. Tartar sauce was very good. She ordered a French onion soup to start and also loved it. We ended the evening with glasses of Bordeaux and the crème brûlée that was on the house for the birthday celebration. Brûlée was amazing. Perfect consistency. Bordeaux was soooo good. My friend ordered an affogato and loved it. Our experience was great, our server was attentive and funny, great vibe and went through the menu nicely. We loved her. The rest itself is very very quiet, you can hear your thoughts even though they somehow have music playing. Beautiful place and table set up.

    As always, we were greeted warmly, we were quickly seated in a (requested) booth. We usually start with the amazing rice balls, (I can’t spell or pronounce the word). My dining partner, who loves scallops, very much enjoyed the delicious risotto that comes with the scallops. I ordered a new dish, for me, I had the appetizer of clams and mussels. I’m sure I didn’t carefully read the menu, and was surprised to find that the dish was very tomato forward. I prefer lighter sauces. I ate the clams and mussels and left an almost full dish of tomato. I didn’t send it back because I thought it was my error in ordering. They have been very accommodating in the past when there had been a concern about an order. The servers are friendly and pleasant and appear to enjoy working there. Last night, our service was less attentive, I think it may have been because we were in a corner booth and maybe more difficult to observe. I think it was an “one off” because service is usually on point. This remains one of our favorite restaurants!

    If you're in Anaheim, I strongly suggest you add Poppy & Seed to your list of places to dine. What's Great - 1/ The craft cocktails were excellent, 2/ The Duck Confit Tacos and Steak Tartar starters were awesome, as was the Garganelli pasta which we shared as a starter. 3/ The Scallops and the Pork Chop were the Main Course standouts, and 4/ The Bread Pudding desert was a big hit. What could have been better - 1/ The Spinach Pappardelle was a bit over-seasoned, and 2/ the wine list is a bit limiting. That being said I would highly recommend dining here, especially if you are a foodie, as the menu has a lot of interesting dishes that you won't find elsewhere.
