With its hip vibe and ample seating, the Anaheim Packing District is a haven for food enthusiasts. The diverse range of food options will leave you in awe. Regular live music and events add to the vibrant atmosphere; check the website for upcoming schedules and current businesses open or coming soon.
I've visited the Packing District several times this year to try new items and to relax in the laid-back ambiance. My most recent visit was for the World Taste event. It was a fun and delectable experience, with many businesses in the district participating. The $55 Taste pass, offering eight tabs to redeem among the 14 items, is a great value. Even after using five tabs, I was already satisfied, but I couldn't resist using all my tabs. The event started slow, but the crowd and activity picked up as the evening progressed. A few lines were long but moved quickly. I can't wait for the next event.
A few of my favorite items from World Taste:
* Zero Zero 39 Pizzeria, the two pizza options. Burrata and Motadella
* En Familia, the Wagyu Carne Asada Taco ($5 during Taco Tuesdays)
* Mini Monster, the Sunset Strawberry Lemonade, refreshing and eye-catching
* Georgia's Soul, the Beignets with Honey, piping hot and sweet
* The Kroft, the Birria Rolls were flavorful and hot
* Zabon Ramen & Rolls, the Zabon Coral Reef sampler (like a poke)
Overall, I enjoy visiting the Packing District, whether there is an event or not. Along with the many food options are a few good bars. All the staff has been kind and helpful. From the morning to the evening, it's a great spot to hang out for anyone or the whole family.
Parking can be better, but there are several parking lots, street parking, and valet parking for $6-8, depending on whether there is an event. Mind the times when not to park on the streets.
