We've been to many In-N-Out locations (several by our house, too) and, hands down, the one by DLR has the friendliest staff ever (and pretty much every In-N-Out has friendly staff). We enjoy going there just because of the cheerful, energetic vibe.
To the OP: is there a particular kind of food that you are seeking? Any budget or dietary restrictions?Since you will have a car, you might want to try:
The Original Pancake House on Lincoln -- total fave!
Little Saigon in Westminster -- many good Vietnamese restaurants
There is a Korea town in Garden Grove -- it's small, but has some good restaurants
Jaegerhaus on Ball has good German food
Little Gaza near Ball and Euclid has good Middle Eastern food
Check Yelp to see what interests you in the Anaheim area. The photos can be very helpful.
Definitely the Korean food in Garden Grove and the Vietnamese food in Westminster are some of the things I miss most about living in Southern California. The Asian food is particularly good in Southern California, even better than the Bay Area IMO, and I think is the strength of the cuisine in that particular area. I never found many American restaurants that I fell in love when I lived down there, it's mainly the Asian restaurants I think about now that I live up North.
- Lee's Sandwiches is a good introduction to Vietnamese Banh Mi sandwiches, a bit easier to order there than the random Vietnamese Grocery stores we used to go to for $1.25 Banh Mi.
- BCD Tofu House in Garden Grove is sort of the McDonald's of Korean Tofu soup; there are better places but it's open until like 3 AM in the morning, it's quick, and it's good. My favorite place was in Irvine, I'm blanking on the name right now though.
- All the Korean BBQ places on Garden Grove Blvd are pretty good. I used to go to Shik Do Rak a lot, but they're all good.
- Shin-sen-gumi in Fountain Valley was the first real ramen place I went to which made me realize there's so much more to ramen than the stuff you eat in college. It's sort of far though.
I always through out Zankou Chicken on these types of threads as well. No one has seemed interested as of yet, but who knows, might as well throw it out there again. Some of the best chicken swarmas, it's a SoCal institution. They only used to be in LA when I lived in Orange County, but looks like they have one in Anaheim now.
