Best Restaurants for Groups in Irvine

I took my team out to dinner for the holidays and we had an amazing experience! My husband and I got there early so we had a drink at the bar, great service, really nice bartenders and they were funny as well. I had the signature lime drink and it was so delicious! Then the manager came over 5 minutes before our reservation time and got us to take us to our table. Our server Diego was fabulous! He came over to explain how everything worked and then came back again right when the rest of our party arrived to explain it again, he was super nice and good with my gluten allergy which I appreciated. He was always there when we needed anything and made sure we were taken care of. There was plenty of meat that came to our table, one of the guys was amazing, he asked what we hadn’t tried and brought it over to us. We really enjoyed the dessert drink and the show our server put on for us while making it. We will definitely be coming back here! Thank you for a great experience.

DELICIOUS. Wonderful cocktails, tantalizing appetizers, and each of our 4 entrees were fantastic. Highly recommend the country bread shareable, the crispy fried chicken sandwich, and the butcher cut pork chop. Can't wait to go back - thanks for a delightful dinner!

Overall it’s a great value. The service,food, and ambiance justify the price of the food. I feel like that’s rare these days. The restaurant is beautiful. staff is on it and super nice. I wish I could Remeber our servers name so I could shout him out but I came on 12/27 7:30 and sat in a red booth. Maybe I’m weird but I love a nice restroom at a restaurant. This one is very clean and pretty. The thick napkin hand towels are luxe. Food came out fast. The after dinner coffees were amazing. The same price as a boutique coffee shop but actually good! My one critique- Although I enjoyed the playlist, I’m not a fan of loud music in an intimate setting. The base was extreme and felt like it was rattling the table.

Great service. Good food. Quite pricey. With tax & tip, it turns out to be $86 pp for lunch on CMas day. Didn’t know they charged $7.50 for each bowl of fried rice in addition to the entree.

The BEST part of our evening was Logan taking care of us! Like always we loved the meatball appetizer & bolognese to share. I loved my grilled branzino, my son loved the chicken parm & my daughter loved her short ribs. Only downside was the scallops were a little fishy. Overall a great experience!
