My honest review of my first time at the well renowned Brads Grille in Santa Ana

Very nice first impression, although empty at 7 pm on a Sunday, still quite impressive with the staff looking very enthusiastic at the first customers coming in for the evening. Asked to put the Spurs game on, took about 20 minutes but they did get it with some very nice flat panel TV's. Had to order 3 different entree's before we were able to hit one they we able to serve, but ce la vie....the food was actually quite fresh and good.Music...literally, was the same repetative techno beat for 3 hours..literally I am not lying. Spurs game ended...having cocktails with friends...celebrating another friends BDay with about 12 people, then were presented the bill at approx 9 pm and told that they normally dont have alot of people on a Sunday, so can u please pay your bill and leave. We of course protested and said, "por favor" we have 12 people here drinking and spending money we wish to stay a bit longer we were allowed to stay when a young group of Tico customers came in to enjoy an iced tea each for 1 hour. At 10 minutes before 10 pm the manager came to us with 5 bills in hand and said they were closing, please pay so they can close and go home. Ambiance not bad. Food was a 7 out of 10..the sauce was lumpy.....no napkins.......and seriously ...I tried to be nice...but we were literally asked to leave at 9 pm...this place fucking sucks...beat pete was there ......anybody that complains about TOT should be ashamed.

brads grill

i used to go there when they first opened and liked the place. so a buddy calls me tonight and says hes gonna be there for his bday. got there around 7 and by 9 they were trying to get us to leave cause apparently they close early on sundays if nobodies there. but there was like a group of 10 of us. no disrespect to the establishment, but when its that early in the evening theres no reason to be bringing the check to us. im sure if the owner was there we coulda stayed till normal hours and drank a lot more.

me as a bar owner if i heard that the workers wanted to close cause they are lazy id be pissed. plus they coulda got a couple hundred more from us if they ;et us stay and drink.

You didnt like it then dont go back then easy as that. They do have good food the best fast food i've seen down here yet. Highly doubt they didnt have napkins because they had white linen napkins when we were there last week. The silver ware was wrapped in it. So if you didnt like it dont go back its easy as that. And for the music if no one was there you should of told them to turn it off and to put the volume on the game.

I gave the food a 7 out of 10, the food wasn't the issue, it was quite good actually. We were asked to leave at 9 pm, I won't be going back. With management like that I give the place 3-6 months. I am sure the owner of the place, had he known would not be pleased. I had a linen napkin but I was referring to the paper type (to use as a coaster for my sloppy drink because the cola I was given was in a tall glass instead of a bottle which made pouring an issue) why do I have to tell them to change that shitty 6 second techno loop, thats obviously the atmosphere they want to project, I would think it would drive them mad.
