Recommendations near Anaheim Conv Center?

Any recommendations for a memorable, moderately priced restaurant not too far from the Anaheim Conv Center? Any cuisine, have car. Looking for local favorites. Thanks!

    One place I enjoy is El Moctezuma; it's a Oaxacan restaurant just south of the resort district on Harbor Blvd. (corner of Lampson and Harbor, in a U-shaped plaza. They make a fantastic clayuda, which is a huge, pizza-size crispy, thin tortilla spread with pork-fatty black bean paste, then topped with shredded cabbage and quesillo (tangy, delicious Mexican string cheese). You can get pieces of meat on top if you like, such as tasajo (dried beef) or cecina (chile-marinated pork).

    12531 Harbor Blvd., Garden Grove.

      Not too far away is Park Ave Restaurant on Beach Blvd in the city of Stanton. It is about 15 minutes max from the Conv. Center. www.parkavedining.com You will not be disappointed.

        Ah, most of the places around the Convention Center/Disneyland are chains. The better of the chains is Morton's if you like steak, though. Good luck!
