Goodies in the Pantry - Orange, California

Jerome Gerodias

I cannot believe how underrated this place is. I was literally speechless at how good the food was. I tried the brisket, and wow, it was next-level. So tender, so juicy, and packed with incredible flavor. Every bite just melted in my mouth, and you can tell they put real care into how they prepare it.

The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the staff is super friendly. You can tell they’re passionate about their food and making sure every customer has a great experience. The quality here is insane, and it honestly deserves way more recognition.

If you haven’t been here yet, do yourself a favor and go. That brisket alone is worth the trip. Five stars all the way

Cozy atmosphere, friendly staff. Steak was cooked to perfection. Service was slow but expected from a small, made to order venue. Spices and flavors were distinctive and interesting. Mouthwatering good. Will return in the future.

Awesome place! The food is spectacular, made with love by the owner himself!

The service was delightful, such warmth and genuine care, I felt totally at home!

Great ambience music, uniquely decorated.

I need to get back to the food: Have I mentioned it's SPEC-TA-CU-LAR?

Strongly recommend this place. You won't be sorry!

This is a butcher shop, cafe, and grocery store all rolled into one. I had the pleasure of working one of the parties they catered, because yes, they do that too! The buffet was amazing and everything everyone tried was delicious. I need to experience it myself personally, but based on everyone's feedback, they loved it all.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Meat Lover’s Paradise – A Must-Visit!

If you’re craving a top-tier sandwich, a perfectly cooked steak, or a hearty, soul-warming stew, Goodies in the Pantry is the place to be. This spot is a hidden gem, serving up some of the best meat-centric dishes around.

Their sandwiches? Absolute perfection—juicy, flavorful, and stacked high with fresh toppings. The deli sandwiches are packed with high-quality meats, and the steaks are cooked just the way you want them. And don’t even get me started on the stews—rich, slow-cooked goodness that feels like a hug in a bowl.

The portions are generous, the ingredients are fresh, and the flavors are out of this world. Plus, the friendly staff and cozy atmosphere make it a place you’ll want to come back to again and again. If you love bold, meaty flavors and expertly crafted dishes, Goodies in the Pantry is a must-visit.

Five stars, no question! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The food here is amazing. Wholesome, made with skill and love. The owners are absolutely wonderful too. Warm, kind accommodating. We have a new favorite place in LA. Their cold cut selection is equal to some of the best European deli stores in Europe. Thanks guys! Great job and keep up the great service and food!

Hidden away in a strip mall is this authentic gem. Very friendly staff patiently waited till I read the whole menu and decided. Wanted to try everything and for obvious reasons that was not possible in one visit. However I did my best 🙂 brisket! Amazing, ribs! Just wow, lunch steak! Impressive. I’m already looking for reasons to fly back to LA and try some more of the dishes. Really looking forward for one of the BBQ platers they prepare for a party.

Discovered an outstanding restaurant boasting truly exceptional cuisine! Indulged in the delectable lamb and brisket sandwiches—both were a culinary delight. Lamb, a personal favorite! Congratulations, Claudio, on maintaining such high culinary standards. Anticipating a swift return with the entire crew!
