Description

If you've ever been to the South, then you know what a po'boy is. Take a bite of this catfish po'boy sandwich, lean back in your patio chair, and close your eyes. You'll swear it isn't traffic along busy Broadway you're hearing, but rather a lazy river.

  • 2012 | Best Sunday Brunch

    A perennial winner in this issue, Memphis At the Santora continually evolves. The Sunday brunch is a staple, but it's so popular the restaurant had to extend it to Saturday. Same menu, same gluttony: chef Diego Velasco's southern-ized diner menu always excels with his attention to detail, but brunch brings out the loco in him, with eggs Benedict drowning in a spicy Hollandaise sauce, French toast fluffier than a marshmallow, and occasional surprise specials such as a Philly-cheesesteak...

  • 2012 | Best Neighborhood Bar, Central OC

    It was the pioneer, the bar that went into downtown Santa Ana when everyone else was still convinced some cholo would rob anyone with skin lighter than coffee. It was the young gun, the place that wowed Orange County with its inventive cocktails that complement a New Southern menu. It was the perennial all-star, making Best Of lists such as this one and so many more year after year for its consistency. Then it became the veteran, sometimes forgotten as new kids emerged on the block to take... More »

  • 2012 | Best New Bartender

    This past March, we hosted a KCRW Good Food/OC Weekly Happy Hour at Memphis At the Santora featuring OC bartender royalty: Ricky Yarnall, Gabrielle Dion, Jason Schiffer, Matt Robold and Felicia Chavez. While the members of the Orange County Bartenders Cabinet were busy slinging free samples of their signature sauces, Jefferson Van Billiard held down the main bar, dishing out more $5 Old-Fashioneds than Memphis had rocks glasses. Now, he can be seen working the bar six days a week, serving... More »

  • 2010 | Best Sunday Brunch

    Memphis At the Santora is a bit of a cliché in this paper's pages, but damned if it's not a true one. And while we usually celebrate it for its bars and Southern-inspired lunches and dinners, let's not forget its Sunday brunch: crawfish omelets, eggs Benedict so buttery you can taste a stick in every dip, nuanced brioche French toast, and green-chile grits tasting of Hatch and bottomless mimosas. Add Memphis' patio, overlooking downtown Santa Ana's bustle, and... More »

  • 2009 | Best Bar In Orange County

    The SanTana outpost of the Memphis chain might not have the dive-bar cachet of its Costa Mesa mami, what with its expansive booths, bright lights and prime real-estate spot in the Artists' Village. But it gets the job done and then some: affable bartenders with their own county cults (Johnny Sampson, Dave Mau) who prepare drinks that veer from genteel (for the ladies) to stiffer-than-plywood; late-night menus that forsake the traditional leftovers for the gourmet standards of Memphis...

  • 2008 | Best Tuna Melt

    Forget sliced bread. This tuna melt is your basic cafeteria-style mix of albacore, celery, lemon and pepper, but it's served on a fresh, lightly toasted baguette. Tastes great with Memphis' signature string fries and a bottle of Stella Artois. Be forewarned, though: It's not available at the Costa Mesa Memphis, only at the Santa Ana location. More »
