This place is located inside a gorgeous shopping center in Irvine…read more It's located inside, Bacchus Bar and Bistro. Which, was extremely crowded. They have tons of parking in this shopping center. They share it with TONS of other places. One of my BFFs saw this on an Instagram video and wanted to check it out. *They do take reservations When we came in we checked in with one of the waitresses. She said she would seat us in a minute. To be honest, she did forget about us. A waiter walked up to us and asked us what was going on (we were standing there for around 7 - 10 minutes) and we told him we had a reservation for the speakeasy. He immediately apologized and sat us. This camp themed speakeasy has a couple booths. It's on the smaller sides. Which, speakeasy's are usually small to begin with. I did not get the waitresses name, my friend and I were busy catching up. The waitress was nice, but not attentive. I will say service was a 2/5. However, the actual restaurant, cozy pine is located in, was packed because of the World Cup being on TV. So I definitely was not going to complain The food Our food order did come out extremely FAST. Faster than our drink orders. -the campfire guacamole -BBQ shoestring fries (had bbq seasoning all over them so it tasted like a BBQ potato chip) -Glamping plate (charcuterie board) -steak tacos (one without onion and cilantro -churro affogato Again, the food was VERY fast!! And to be honest it wasn't that bad. I'll say, speakeasy's usually shine in the drink department vs food. Drinks -Lycheed and Loaded Ketel One, lychee liqueur, lemon, elderflower. This was extremely delicious! If you don't like to taste your alcohol? Go with this. It was really refreshing. Hand this to me at a spa and I'd be the happiest gal in the world -Camp Anawanna $17 Graham cracker-infused bourbon, licor 43, chocolate, torched marshmallow (the waitress catches the marshmallow on fire at the table) This one was stronger and I didn't think it was overly sweet despite the ingredients I think they had a good selection, especially for a small speakeasy. I have been to better, so I don't think I'd return. Especially since the service was not that great. We still had a good time and recommend for every speakeasy lovers list.

I gave Postino Park Place in Irvine 3 stars. The location itself is a really nice, clean, and…read moremodern restaurant with a great vibe, but the overall experience was definitely a mixed bag. We ordered a bunch of bruschetta to share for the table, and while they were good, they were honestly lacking that real "wow" factor. For my main, I ordered the P.R.E.A.M. bowl and found it to be quite mediocre. It was pretty plain overall, and all of the vegetables inside were extremely undercooked. While the food was average, the service was pretty much zero stars. It was extremely spotty throughout the entire meal, our drinks were never refilled, and to make matters worse, they actually charged us for coffee that never showed up at our table. It's a lovely space with decent light bites, but the food execution fell short and the severe service issues really dragged down the experience.

The beans could use a little improvement, but overall the meal was delicious. The highlight was definitely the service. Jenny greeted me and was super friendly and welcoming. Since it was my first time, she brought out a shrimp taco for me to try -- and OMG, that taco was GOOD! Definitely one of the reasons I'll be coming back. I also really liked the atmosphere. The restaurant is chic, intimate, and feels like somewhere you'd go for a special night out. I wasn't expecting to find this really cool speakeasy-style cabin seating area inside either! Great little hidden gem and an awesome date-night spot. Can't wait to come back and try more of the menu!

Nice little bar and restaurant in the middle of an Irvine shopping center. I came here to meet a…read morefriend and it wasn't too busy at happy hour time. There were multiple TVs on playing games. They have Rombauer, which was nice. It's very nice when you ask for a Chardonnay and the bar has a choice let alone a nice bottle. Well done. Their food menu skews heavy to meat eaters but if you eat pescatarian you'll have a good amount of options. I don't think vegans will have any options so maybe eat at home first. I ordered the shrimp tacos with extra cheese. They're tiny but overfilled so you definitely need a fork to dig into them. Overall a nice spot for some casual conversation and to watch the game or grab a quick bite. It's a bit hot inside, though, so maybe they can turn on the a/c in the summer.

Because of the way they store the wine bottles the table was hidden from view until we were right next to it. It made for the perfect surprise when she walked in. Our table ordered a variety of menu items and cocktails with our meals. Everyone enjoyed and shared amongst our group. When it came to dessert they surprised my sister with a a little something so we could all terrorize her with our singing voices. Overall we had a great meal with excellent service. We couldn't have asked for a better spot to celebrate.

A solid plate of pasta that delivers exactly what you want from a Bolognese.

When a family member raved about the food and hospitality at The Winery in Tustin, I knew I had to…read morecheck it out. It's tucked into a strip mall, but don't let the exterior fool you--the moment you step through the doors, you're transported into a polished, high-end fine dining experience that rivals any top spot in the county. ​Every single detail here is executed with precision. The depth of flavor in the dishes, the stunning plate presentation, and the extensive, beautifully curated wine list are all top-tier. What truly sets The Winery apart, though, is the service. The care and genuine warmth from the entire team are exceptionally rare these days. ​A highlight of our evening was meeting William, one of the owners. He was so gracious, knowledgeable, and giving of his time, sharing fascinating insights about the origins and vision of the restaurant. ​Pro Tip: Whether you're celebrating a milestone birthday, planning a date night, or just looking for an unforgettable meal, book a table here. It is truly one of Orange County's absolute best-kept secrets, and you will not be disappointed!

I can't remember the owners names, but they've all been working together for so long - making this restaurant such a homey, cozy, and welcoming environment. We can't wait to come back after work again.

We also tried the sushi, and while it was fresh, it's no comparison to sushi restaurant sushi and I wouldn't try it again.

We have also been to most, if not all, of the wineries in Orange County and can say for certain that they are the best. Come in and do a tasting for yourself and be sure to follow them on Instagram and come to one of their events. The owners, Chuck and Sheri, are fantastic people and welcome everyone in with open arms (and glasses of wine). The other workers are very knowledgeable and very friendly. Come here - both for the people and the wine! Every once in a while, they will do what they call a mystery six pack. These are a fantastic deal with 6 reds, 6 whites, or a mix and you get this at a discounted price. Lastly... Be ready to hear some really cheesy jokes from the owner Chuck.
