At Savor Santa Ana, you can stroll the sidewalks and sample tastes from local restaurants and bars throughout downtown Santa Ana. Live musicians and pop-up shows will light the way, and a double-decker 1961 London bus will provide free rides around downtown. The theme this year promotes romance for foodies: "The way to another's heart is through their stomach"
Savor Santa Ana occurred annually from 2014-2019 and is returning now after a hiatus during the pandemic.
Savor Santa Ana tickets are just $10 for 5 tasting tickets. Tickets are available online for pre-purchase at savorsantaana.com and are available cash-only onsite at Savor Santa Ana. The event takes place Thursday, September 8th from 5:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. in downtown Santa Ana.
Downtown Santa Ana (DTSA) is re-emerging from the pandemic as Orange County’s favorite food district with two food halls and dozens of food cuisines including Mexican and Latin American dishes, hipster foods and artisanal producers, tap rooms and bars, and Asian traditional and fusion fares.

Chunk N Chip, ShariNori, El Mercado Modern Mexican Cuisine, The Pizza Press, Burritos La Palma, El Indio Botanas y Cervezas, Kaizen Shabu Shabu, Den Cafe, Lola Gaspar, Native Son Alehouse, Mission Bar and many more!
