The amazing Madison took care of us; her friendliness and approachability made Valentine's Day Dinner extra special without seeming too formal and stuffy like you would expect from an elevated steakhouse. The steak was good, but the oyster appetizer, only found on the Valentine's prefix menu, stole the show. Hopefully they can add this to the regular menu.

Our first time to En Famila and on Valentine's Day no less - so it was busy. With that said, there was a live band playing lively music and the atmosphere was electric. We had a reservation and were seated promptly by a friendly hostess. Our server was spot on and helpful with the menu as were newbies. Our appetizers were really good - guacamole and then the potato burrito things.. highly recommended! We each ordered different entrees and everything was excellent. It was a chilly evening but warm inside. We really want to return on a warm evening when all the windows and doors are open to take in the energy of the surrounding area - lots going on in that area!. After dinner, we sat and listened to the music - and the chef/owner came by to introduce himself and ask how things were. He was kind and genuine - a lost touch these days. We will certainly return and if you are reading this, I urge you to give it a try - I don't think that you will be disappointed.

We went on Valentine’s Day and they were extremely busy but staff handled the weight quite well and still deliver. Great customer service. The food was excellent. We tried the Valentine course menu and it was delicious.

Our chef KP was amazing. Super entertaining and food was great. Lots of laughs and a full belly!

2/12/2025 Last night my wife my wife and I and our four children and their spouses enjoyed a wonderful meal at Poppy and Seed un Anaheim, including a post-meal Q and A with chef/owner Michael Reed, We had ten of the entrees shared all-around and none were found wanting. My personal favorite was the lobster risotto. The starters and sides were delicious as well. Our server, Eugene and his assistant Matt added to our experience by keeping the flow of the many items from kitchen and bar at a perfect pace. Eugene's knowledge of the menu was very comprehensive, as he answered our many questions and enhanced our enjoyment. I would recommend Poppy and to any and all,
