“ It's really nice space. Lots of diff food options to choose from. You can have an entire meal here with food, beer, dessert, boba, and have a date here making candles or playing a few arcades/shopping. Space is great for families. Although some parents let their kids run amuck and you may be caught in between kids throwing things at each other or trying to play hide and seek in the arcade section with no adult watching at the moment. ”

“ I've been several times throughout the years and I'm sad the turnover rate in business is always changing but I'm happy they seem to still stick around. It's a great spot to grab a quick breakfast or meet a friend for a beer and grub. Or bring the fam and everyone can pick there own food spot and a little arcade fire the kiddos. I love that they have life music on the weekends. I saw they even have a private room for gatherings. I think they have trivia but I haven't attend that yet but I definitely would. ”

“ I've been here twice now (while visiting), and I haven't save love it! There are so many food options to choose from and lots of seating. It's great for a group, a date or a family. Plenty of parking and easy to order at any of the vendors. ”

“ This is a great place to hang out with adult friends and kids. They have alcoholic beverages for the adults and games and a play area for kids. I love there birria burrito and a thai tea with strawberry popping boba. We have had a few ups and downs with the taco place having a lot of fat in there tacos but once you come back after a few weeks there back to normal. They also have a shop called shopstyleit and honestly half of my cloths are from there. Amazing service from this shop. The mom and daughter are so nice and will help you find things for certain occasions. I love this place so much but especially when the have Cruise Control playing. Awesome band there very nice. Anyway this place is awesome and kid friendly. ”

“ Over the past decade, container markets have become a trend in Seoul, especially with spots like Common Ground (opened in 2015) and Seoullo 7017 near Seoul Forest (opened in 2017). These markets bring a fresh, urban vibe by blending the traditional American market concept with a contemporary twist, breathing new life into the city and boosting tourism in the process. In Southern California, we have our own version--SteelCraft, a marketplace brand that uses shipping containers as its main architectural element, blending food, art performances, leisure activities, and community social experiences. SteelCraft first opened in 2017 in Long Beach as its flagship location, creating a vibrant space for dining, arts, and local gatherings. It later expanded with a Bellflower location in 2019 and the Garden Grove location in 2021. I visited the Garden Grove SteelCraft on a quiet weekday afternoon (10/2024). There weren't many people around, just a few students hanging out after school. The location makes sense since it's close to Historic Main Street, the Community Center Park (which is currently under renovation), Coastline Community College, and Garden Grove High School, all of which help keep the area somewhat lively within the local community. There's plenty of seating inside, and the container shops offer a mix of Korean, Japanese, and Mexican food options, along with a few drink spots, a beer garden, a handmade candle shop, and a clothing store. I had originally planned to grab a coffee at the popular Dark Horse Coffee Roasters, but after checking, I realized it had permanently closed. The space can also be rented for events, and there's a small stage for performances. I imagine it's livelier on weekends or in the evenings. However, during my visit, it felt a bit too empty compared to the bustling container markets in Seoul. After walking around the place, I decided to head over to Garden Grove Historic Main Street for another city walk. SteelCraft 12900 S Euclid St, Garden Grove, CA 92840 https://steelcraftlb.com/ ”

“ This place is amazing! I absolutely love it. It's not cheap, but what place that offers vegan food is? I love it and come periodically. The vegan Pastor Tacos & Tacos Canajillo are DELISH!! The owners are nice also! We like to sit outside and enjoy the fresh air! ”

“ I visited SteelCraft on a Friday night and although it was busy, there was still a lot of parking available and the lines for all of the vendors were relatively short. There is also plenty of cafeteria-style seating available downstairs and a small upstairs area. We happened to go when they had a live band which provided nice ambience, although it can be a bit loud if you sit close. There is a wide variety of food options and I decided to get Barrio, which offers Korean/Filipino fusion bbq. I tried the skewer plate with pork and chicken. The skewers were well marinated and and the plate was filling, but a bit expensive for what it is. ”

“ SteelCraft is an outdoor food and beverage hall, somewhat similar to the Anaheim packing district. They have a variety of business with different cuisines. This was very nice as it allows for everyone in the group to get exactly what they want. We came on Sunday for a friend's birthday party and they had live music from 3-6pm. Unfortunately for the band to be loud enough to fill the space, the band's volume was too loud to have conversation with the people sitting across from you. There is a notice that said no outside food or drinks but they did not seem to be enforcing this strictly. ”

“ What a great outdoor hang-out spot with amazing food and drinks. Plenty of seating is available, many food options, and easy parking. The layout of Steel Craft makes it an ideal place to grab some drinks, and delicious food and listen to live music. First, we grabbed our drinks at Beachwood Brewing. Excellent drinks. Then, we walked over to La Taqueria Brand and ordered Asada street tacos, a birria beef dip sandwich, and an esquite. OMG, the food is amazing! The tacos are so good and the birria sandwich is to die for. I can only imagine how great all their food options are. We received our food, quickly. I can only comment on Beachwood Brewing and La Taqueria Brand-both amazing food/drinks and service. You will also find other food options, such as pasta, korean bbq, burgers etc. You will also find a small clothing boutique, passing the boba stand. :) ”
