Reviews for Regina Restaurant in Garden Grove, CA
If you’re in the area then you have to give this little Argentinian place a try. The service was great and the food was... tasty. I got the lemon chicken with rice which was very juicy. I saw a few to go orders with pizzas so I’ll have to try onenext time. Highly recommended Read more
Peruvian Argentine cuisine! One of the best places to get authentic leche de tigre and ceviche in Orange County. Great... selection of Argentine bbq (parrilladas). Jimmy is the best ???????? Read more
Entraña Argentine steak was delicious and the fact you can get two different country cuisines is reason we came and were not... disappointed. Owner was charming and the Peruvian Ceviche was on point! Muy Rico!! Read more
2nd time at Regina's. We enjoy the food and service. Nothing is perfect in any restaurant but Regina's warm hospitality and... consistency on their food quality makes a trip there well worth it. Tips: they run a small crew so be patient. Expect cleanbathrooms and well stocked store with items from south America. Read more
I'll start with my reasoning for the rating because some of the cons may be pros depending on your desired experience. The... restuarant is small, quaint if you want to be fancy about it. Parking is severely limited and the service was slow. This draggedout the visit and we came hungry. Now if you plan better and go for the local restuarant experience, this will definitely moveto a 4 or 4.5. There is no way you should visit this restaurant without ordering 2 or 3 empanadas. I recommend the beef but allare good. The beef are as close to the ones my aunt made as I have found. Careful though it is easy to fill up on them, so ordersome to go. Other appetizers are good and will keep you until you order your meal. If you are there for the whole experiencehave a few beers or grab a bottle of wine. This is how you should enjoy the place, with friends/family a few bottles and lots ofsmall appetizers to keep everyone grounded. When ready I recommend most dishes here. The Parrillada para dos/tres is a greatgroup meal/tasting and encapsulates what Argentinean foods have to offer. Cons: Service like most places. Parking and size ofseating. Pros: Essence of a family restuarant. Good food and portions. Service (I know): friendly and welcoming. If you likethe menu options and have the time..give this a try. Read more
Jaime turned out to be very pleasant as a representative to the place. We ordered a few dishes and were not disappointed with... our order to. 3 Ceviche Mixto which meant seafood variety and no fish. Everyone liked it, not perfect, mind you, but certainlyfresh and nice serving. 2 Tamales Peruvian style with pork, and very agreeable plus nice size. On the Argentinian side of themenu we ordered 2 breast of chicken with rice, nicely marinated and easy to eat. Many items in the menu piqued our curiosity butthere was enough for the four of us. The place also offers assorted goodies which I picked a few that turned out very nice fordessert. Ceviches around $18 a piece which seems to be the going price these days. Tamal $9 each? The chicken plate around $15.Overall we felt well treated and did like their food, from Argentina ???????? and Peru ???????? under one roof (in alphabeticalorder), and we met a couple of lovely Argentinian ladies that made the waiting for our take out much nicer. Total $106+, butorder was plentiful with salsas and bread thrown in. 4 Stars. Read more
One of the best finds for Argentina/ Peruvian food! Everything was super fresh and delicious. This was my first time ever... ordering from Regina's and I will be back! What are you doing still reading reviews go order some food from this amazingrestaurant! Its a wonderful find. I ordered the chicken and spinach empanadas. The sauces makes the food so much tastier! Don'tpass up on trying the sauces. Tamala peruana is wrapped in a banana leaf, its so moist and delicious. Also I got papa a lahuanciana. Finally I had to order their lucuma ice cream its so creamy and soft I definitely recommend trying it out. Read more
