"Our experience at TAPS was very good. As first time visitors we didn't know what to expect. The servers were professional, courteous, and diligent. They took great pride in providing a great atmosphere. We dined on a Friday and the music from the bar area was a nice touch. It was close enough to hear, but it didn't drown out the dining experience. One added bonus was the dessert sampler that was offered for first time guests; very classy and a great idea to recruit repeat business. The prices are reasonable, depending on what you get. There are more expensive items just like any other fine dining establishment. The management is attentive and are often seen visiting tables for that extra personal touch. We will definitely return."

"TAPS (Corona) is always a good bet. On my recent visit I had the pleasure of dinning for Sunday Brunch and all I can say is WOW! Quality is not typically something that comes to mind when buffet dining however the fresh seafood was awesome! Especially the oysters and ceviche."

"we have been going to taps since it opened in corona. we were regulars at the one in brea for 10 years. we've always been pleased, for lunch, dinner and brunch. this sunday's brunch, there was something missing. the food seems to have been cut down a bit. some items we really liked were gone. the jazz band was gone, which always made this brunch more special than others. service was not as attentive and professional as in the past (we didn't even know our servers name, which we had two, because they didn't were name tags). the view of the lake is great, and that is what brought us there last sunday. food quality good, hostess staff were on point and really nice. servers need a more professionl attitude, and bring the jazz back!!!"

"It was disappointing. What happened to the idea of "seafood"? Maybe we were thinking "King's"? Very noisy, expensive, not a place to celebrate a special occasion. Actually, the Asian ribs were the best order. Your corking fee, very reasonable. Our wait person, Briana, was very courteous. Citrus City Grille so won out. Thanks. It's a fun place for those who just want to eat!"
