Good LA/OC Restaurants?

[GoodRevrnd]

My sister is going to prom and needs a restaurant for her group. North Orange County: Whittier, La Habra, La Mirada, Fullerton, Anaheim. Preferably in one of those cities or no more than one city over. Budget is average of $30 / person, no desert. Available vegetarian entrees would be nice. Asian food would be a plus.

She's considering Cat & the Custard Cup, the Cellar is too expensive, and Summit House is too generic.

Cheesecake Factory is a good prom choice. Fun, good food, not horribly expensive, but not slumming either.

There are a lot of restaurants around Disneyland (Downtown Disney?).

Cedar Creek Inn in Brea is pretty nice.

McDonald's.

Try La Vie en Rose in Brea. It's just off Imperial and State College. Excellent french food. Very good, classy, and not too expensive ($25-30/entree). It's a good prom place.

Edit: If its a group, reserve the Blue Room (separate room inside the restaurant) ahead of time. Very nice for special occasions. Pretty sure it doesn't cost any extra.

Ah I forgot about La Vie en Rose, that one woulda been perfect but she says half of them are going their a week later w/ French club. Go figure.

And yeah, Downtown Disney restaurants are not a very good bang for the buck IMO.
