It was bumpin'! We've been to a Holey Moley in New Zealand, but the new one in Irvine is next level! Tashawn-- was so helpful and getting us a table to grab a bite while we ate. It was super busy and chaotic but Tashawn kept checking in and was on it! There was a bit of a snafoo but that was quickly resolved by Tashawn and Aidan-- so we will def be back just because of the customer service. The wings and the elote were flavorful and hit the spot on a late night. The mini golf was super ingenious and loads of fun. There was a live DJ keeping the vibes going. Super great time with lots energy. read more

Went here with a group of colleagues after work and had a great time. The decor and overall design really stand out--fun, creative, and sporty with a lively ambiance. The staff even dress like golfers, which adds to the experience. We booked two rounds for $25, and each hole had its own unique theme--one putt felt like a tattoo parlor, another was inspired by Arts of Vincent van Gogh :). Some friends ordered drinks and took shots at the bar--the bartenders were chill and easygoing. One of the them was kind enough to take a group photo for us, which we appreciated. Overall, the staff were friendly and attentive, the place was very clean, and everything felt brand new. Definitely a fun spot to hang out with friends or families. read more

My husband and I have come here before with our toddler to do mini golf but went without kids last night and discovered the hijinx hotel and we had the BEST TIME. This place is never ending with cool fun things to do. The staff is amazing but Mike & Matt at the upstairs bar really took our visit to the next level, we talked to them all night & just had so much fun. Thanks Mike & Matt!!

Holey Moly, this place is GREAT! We had the best time at Holey Moley with a very large group of 7 Adults and 7 Kids. We played 18 holes which is two courses and also had dinner in the restaurant. It was chaotic, loud, exciting and really fun. Would I go again? Absolutely, but I did learn a lot. So here are my recommendations: ***Booking ahead: I was worried that the course might sell out on a busy Sunday afternoon, so I booked our mini golf ahead. This was completely unnecessary in my opinion as it felt like many people were just walking up. Had we just walked up, when one of our party ended up not coming, we had to deal with their inability to refund the 18 holes. They did provide a card to come back and complete 2 nine-hole courses, but not paying ahead is probably all around better. ***If you have a big party with whole families consider who should really golf. This place is CROWDED and the holes are SMALL. It is not at all spread out. So with having to watch our kids so they didn't crowd the people in front of us, or worse, step into their next hole, I barely golfed and when I did I felt rushed because there was a party just behind us waiting for ten million people to golf when they were only a party of two. Next time, I would just walk around with them and have the kids and maybe my better half golf. ***The food I had was actually pretty good. We had the Thai Crunch lettuce wraps which were butter lettuce cups filled with Chicken in a Thai sauce, crisp veggies and something called chili crunch. It was not cheap but it was convenient. If we didn't have a reservation somewhere in the mall, this would be a good option. We'll be back! read more

The staff is amazingly friendly and definitely make the experience even better. We also had lunch at the restaurant and the food was really tasty and filling. They had a kids menu, were very allergy-aware, and even had an option to substitute vegan cheese on their pizzas! We loved our visit and are looking forward to visiting again! read more

This was one of the most fun experiences I've ever had !! I believe the place has only been open a month and I could see this as a staple to Irvine spectrum. I started with the mini golf there's about 3 courses my boyfriend and I got 2 courses. And it was super fun took a good amount of time but it passed by because of how fun it was. There a restaurant and full bar connected. I didn't get food but I did get drinks. The employees are really nice made sure we had a good time and had a smile on their faces the whole time we were there. Which I feel elevates the experience more read more

Disclaimer - This is just based off the bar service and the ambiance/theme. We did not get to play miniature golf or escape room. We looked online before coming on a whim on the last Sunday of winter break and found they were booked. They just opened last month (I think) and we were hoping the hype was over but it's not yet. Its a 1920's hotel library bookworm vibe. There is a concierge in the front who welcomed us and let us walk around. We had a movie across the way at Regal booked for 1:20 so we stopped by the bar after lunch just to check it out. We got an old fashioned and espresso martini which were about $15 each. Presentation for the old fashioned was amazing! Taste of the espresso martini was light and refreshing. We'll make sure to book in advance next time. read more

This is such a cute concept!! We came on a Friday night just to grab drinks but it totally made me want to play mini golf. Every room is so well decorated. The hotel bar versus the Holey Moley bar versus the speakeasy, all had such different themes. There's even an upstairs game room which was reservation only Friday night. It appears to be like a hotel hallway and the hotel room doors are where the games are within. This is a great spot for families or a date night and totally worth checking out! read more

Went to Holley Moley for date night and it was a fun experience! There was a line, so we waited a few minutes to get inside. I recommend making reservations ahead of time since they get pretty busy. You get a coin to put in a gumball machine to get your golf balls. The course was fun, but it was pretty tight and we spent a lot of time waiting for other people to finish before we could do our turn. Wish it was bigger so there was less of a wait to play. read more

Holey Moley Golf Club is a fun indoor mini-golf spot with great aesthetics. They serve food and drinks which makes it more of an experience than your typical mini golf outing. The courses are creative and make for a memorable time. The biggest downside is the slow pace of play. Sometimes large groups take more time to get through the holes, so you could spend some time waiting. Still worth visiting, but plan extra time or go during off-peak hours. They have service staff that go around and will take drink orders as you go along the course. I thought it was a nice touch. read more

Had my son's 13th birthday here today and we had an amazing time! We always try to do something fun, unique and with decent food for adults and kids on family birthdays and this definitely fit what we were looking for! We had 13 people and bought a party package that included the games at the Hotel, food and drinks package and mini golf. We had people coming from Corona, San Pedro, Burbank and San Fernando so we didn't all arrive exactly on time and it was packed that day being a Saturday afternoon. But our server Sara V and the manager Destiny went above and beyond to help us and accommodate all the hectic last minute changes. They truly helped make the experience and we appreciated all the flexibility and attention they gave us. I've been to the Holey Moley in Denver and Santa Monica and think this new one in Irvine is a level above! read more

Located in Irvine Spectrum, towards the north end of the mall, where all the restaurants are located. I came alone with a dog to check it out. It was a Tuesday early evening, during Christmas holiday and it was packed! The place just opened 2 weeks ago, so that would be Dec 2025 second week. They have a 27 hole mini golf indoor course for $26 or $36 per person on weekends. If you come during peak times, please reserve in advance. Don't want to golf? Okay, they have a fake library, a free photobooth on 2nd floor, a bar and a concierge (gift shop). You scan the QR code, and send an email from you to you. They are service animal friendly. Bar service is amazing, thank you Victor and Jai! The cocktails are limited, on the menu, called "Signature Shooter", I think page 3 or 4, with 4 specialty cocktails for around $8, which is a great deal! I ordered the "Bunker Bay Breeze". Tasted great! Since they were starting out, I got the drink made from scratch. I didn't take photos of the golf course, but its super cookey, whimsical, and I can't wait to come back with some friends. Let the photos speak for themselves. read more

The courses are fun, but for the price you pay it is simply not worth it. Sure the inside has cool aesthetics and you can get drinks while playing, but it's a 9 hole course with each hole not really being that difficult... service was friendly and the speak easy was empty. Overall, cool concept, but not worth the price. You could get away with a 9 hole course if each hole was hard, but each hole took 4 or less puts. read more

I recently came to this place for the first time and it did not disappoint. I've already been back twice. It's a great place to bring the family or a fun date night. The place is very bright and colorful. Great place to take lots of pics. The staff were amazing as well! They were seriously getting down with their bad selves. They also be dropping it like it's hot when it comes to the music. They even had a DJ on Friday night. The place is all about fun! They serve their appetizers in tiny shopping carts and cool novelty adult beverages. They have happy hour and other drink specials. I got a watermelon drink that came in unicorn that I was totally forced to purchase and did not have a choice. Facts no printer! But anyways now to the best part...miniature golf! They have 3 courses and they are all awesome! I really recommend doing the middle BLUE course. Let's just say I was getting my happy Gilmore on read more

Fun way to spend an hour or so. There are 9 hole or 18 hole options. I opted for 9 and that was plenty as we had several parties behind us who insisted on getting right up on us and crowding us. Drinks were ok but some were unavailable because they ran out of some liquors - apparently not expecting the crowds they got. The food options looked like typical bar food but we didn't try any since we'd just come dinner elsewhere. I don't think I'll go again unless the crowds of rowdy people chill out...I hate feeling rushed read more

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.

Everything is great except for the jumping prices. Looking through old pictures of past menus (on…read moreYelp) shows how several price increases in the past 3 years. Price increases in our past three years are certainly expected, however, the hike since April's menu to yesterday (10/3/2026), seems unreasonable. The Churrasco entree (Cuban herb chimichurri with sharp citrus notes) for $50 gives you a very thin skirt steak with a corn cob, white rice, and black beans in a skinny ramekin (tiny, tall egg cup in this instance), whose price seems unjustified. However, $44 dollars would make more sense, including the value-add of the remarkable ambiance and terrific service. The next time, I will ask them how many ounces meat dishes before ordering to negotiate price to product. Be certain to ask for your corn cob to be served off-the-cob: it has sprinkled cotija cheese and a thin coat of unseasoned enchilada sauce on it. The *curved blade of the steak knife that comes with this entree is almost impossible to cut the kernels off of the cob without making a disaster. I asked for more of the churrasco sauce, with a citrus tang that was served minimally, under the skirt steak -- it was also outstanding with the corn and white rice.

We still make it over here occasionally because we really love the outdoor seating, and Tony always makes the experience worth the trip. Tony remembers us and always makes us feel extra special when we're there. He knows we love extra salsa with our chips, so instead of making us ask for refills over and over, he brings us our own little bowl of salsa. It's a small thing, but that kind of attention really stands out. He's also just a funny guy and always makes our date nights a little more enjoyable. We ordered our usual chicken al pastor and filet mignon tacos, along with sides of rice and beans. Everything was delicious as usual. Puesto is also a great value when you keep it simple with tacos, chips, and sides. Definitely check out the Los Olivos location if you're in the area, especially if you can grab a spot outside.

However my…read morehusband and I happened to be strolling around Irvine Spectum and wanted to check this place out. When we came in, it was quite empty on a Saturday around 2pm. I'm not sure if they only accept reservations, but when we came the hostess asked if we had a reservations which we didn't but they were able to accomodate us. For appetizers, we ordered the kalbi dumplings which composed of ground kalbi and soy sauce. We chose to do the signature kalbi experience which was the middle tier that consisted of prime beef brisket, seasoned primt flat iron, their signature tableside kalbi, and the 48 hour kalbi salt marinade. Included in the kalbi experiences were a variety of seasonal banchan, egg souffle, perilla salad, fresh kimchi, and your choice of kimchi stew or soybean stew. I must say...the price is not the same as your typical korean bbq whether it is ayce or not. But this place and the quality of their meats and the sides that were included made it worth it. You can see the marbling in the meat and how clean the sides were. When I say it's clean, the sides were very clear and not cloudy if that makes sense. The decor in here was modern and very clean, surprisingly you don't smell like meat after. The service was great as I mentioned to them in the beginning that I had a shellfish allergy so they always told me what side dishes were safe for me to eat. You don't cook the meat, they actually cook it in front of you which was nice.

I recently discovered the perfect spot to unwind after a long and hectic day, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. The ambience is warm, cozy, and inviting, with soft lighting and tasteful décor that immediately makes you feel at ease. It's the kind of place where you can sink into a comfortable seat and leave your stress at the door. The food is absolutely delightful--every dish is packed with flavor and presented beautifully. From appetizers to desserts, the menu offers a great balance of comforting favorites and creative options. Each bite feels thoughtfully crafted, making it ideal for a casual meal or a more indulgent evening. The service is another highlight. The staff is attentive without being intrusive, always ready with recommendations or a friendly chat. They strike the perfect balance of professionalism and warmth, which enhances the overall experience. What I love most is how it doubles as a hangout spot. Whether you're catching up with friends, enjoying a quiet dinner, or just relaxing solo after a long day, this place sets the perfect tone. It's definitely become my go-to spot when I need to recharge and treat myself. read more

Last time we came here, we had a great experience, which is why we decided to come back tonight. Unfortunately, tonight was completely different and very disappointing. The burgers were extremely salty, and the pizza was also way too salty. But the biggest issue was the music. It was unbelievably loud and honestly unbearable. We came with a group because we wanted to socialize, talk, and enjoy our time together, but the music was so loud that we literally had to yell at each other just to have a conversation. When we mentioned it to the staff and asked if they could lower the volume a little, we were told they couldn't do anything about it and that if it bothered us, we could sit outside. We moved outside, but even there the music was still extremely loud. I really think management should ask all guests for feedback about the music volume, because I'm sure we weren't the only people bothered by it. There's a difference between having energetic music and having it so loud that guests can't comfortably talk to each other. We really enjoyed our previous visit, but unfortunately, tonight's experience was very disappointing. read more

Had an incredible time at Holey Moley Irvine with my family! From the moment we arrived, everything felt organized, welcoming, and genuinely well-run. We had a 3:30 reservation, and the team was super flexible with both our start time and how long we stayed, which made the whole experience feel relaxed instead of rushed.The bartenders were incredibly friendly and added to the fun atmosphere, the food was surprisingly amazing (definitely better than you'd expect for an entertainment venue), and the entire place felt very clean and well maintained.There are so many fun photo opportunities throughout the venue, which made it even better for a family outing. The mini golf experience itself was creative, entertaining, and perfect for both adults and kids. It's not always easy finding a place that feels fun, organized, and stress-free all at once, but this place nailed it.We left talking about when we're coming back.

Holey Moley at the Irvine Spectrum was such a fun and memorable stop for our Valentine's date! We played the Red Course, which includes 9 holes, and had the best time. From what we saw, there are three different courses total, which makes it a great place to come back and try something new each visit. The holes were super creative, interactive, and just the right mix of fun and challenging. I especially loved the little tips they post at each hole on how to "sink the ball," such a clever touch that made the experience even more engaging. The atmosphere that night was amazing thanks to the DJ, the music was so good and really added to the energy and overall date-night vibe. It felt lively without being overwhelming. We didn't get a chance to try the food and cocktails this time, but the menu looked really good, so we're already planning to come back for another round (and maybe a different course next time!). If you're looking for a fun, unique date night or group activity, Holey Moley is definitely worth it! read more

Then there's the "check-in" desk for information and more. The hotel bar lobby is where's its at! Usually there's some type of private party going on in the main restaurant area or the rooms but the bar seating was open so we sat there. The bartender was awesome, she was friendly and talkative and made us feel very welcome. We ordered a couple of drinks and everything was really good, craft style and quality ingredients. Love the vibe here with the decor, barstools and lighting. The speakeasy upstairs is such a fun, relaxing space. The entry is through the cute photobooth where a sliding door opens up into the beautiful red room. The chairs and tables and booths and even the bar are just gorgeous. It feels very private and comfortable. The drinks are a little pricey here, not surprising! We arrived right at opening, so 5 pm on a Thursday and it was just 2 of us and 3 other people came in and sat at the bar. Love that they have their own restrooms upstairs. I got two of the same cocktail because it was so good!

Around 6 p.m., the place was fairly quiet, and we could clearly see our children playing from our table. Ivan yelled at them and told them they could not play without an adult accompanying them. He then approached us to explain the same rule. I asked whether they were bothering anyone, but he only repeated that they could not play alone. I explained that we were watching them closely and would address any inappropriate behavior. Later, when the children went to play again, they saw Ivan and ran away from him. One child was crying because she was frightened by the earlier interaction. Ivan then returned to our table and raised his voice at us, claiming the children were kicking balls around and disrupting adults. That does not match what I observed while watching them from our table. If adult accompaniment is required, that policy can be explained calmly and respectfully. Yelling at children and then their parents is unacceptable, especially at a place families visit to have fun. We had enjoyed lunch at Wood Ranch and a movie and hoped to finish the evening here. Instead, we left with upset children and a very disappointing first impression. Other employees apologized for his behavior, which we appreciated. But apparently he has treated other families like this in the past as well, which is unacceptable! I'm asking upper management to review the security footage from around 6:30p.m.-7:00p.m., including the alleged ball-kicking incident and Ivan's interactions with our children and our table. Please take this complaint seriously and address how these situations are handled. Families deserve clear rules and respectful treatment.

There is so much to look at all around so take your time admiring the decor while you drink. The tiki drinks are different from Stowaway and are delicious! It's definitely more intimate so you can talk to the bartenders. Though since it's all booths, you won't really see them make the drinks.

The Belly of the Beast - Pinocchio Speakeasy at Stowaway Tiki Bar, Tustin…read more The Belly of the Beast is a Pinocchio-themed speakeasy tucked inside Stowaway Tiki Bar in Tustin, and it's definitely a fun experience. You actually enter through the mouth of a whale, which immediately sets the tone. The decor and theming are really well done, with plenty of unique details that make the space feel immersive. The atmosphere is more intimate and private compared to the main tiki bar, which makes it a nice change of pace. The food menu is limited, but what we tried was good. The drinks were definitely the highlight. I had the Farewell Jimmy, Smoke the Monster Out, and Geppetto's Last Words--all three were great. Smooth, tropical, flavorful, and definitely potent. Service was okay, but nothing particularly stood out. Overall, The Belly of the Beast is a cool place to check out if you enjoy themed bars and unique experiences. For me, it's probably more of a one-time experience rather than somewhere I'd regularly return to. Still, the creativity, decor, and cocktails make it worth experiencing at least once.

We've had so many date nights where the food was mediocre, the atmosphere was forgettable, and we left wondering why we bothered going out. The Red Room is the complete opposite. It's an experience worth getting dressed up and going out for. Part of me wants to keep this hidden gem a secret so we can still get reservations, but a place this wonderful deserves to be celebrated. We're already looking forward to our next visit!

The manager was very accommodating and understanding to our needs. We arrived a bit late, but we…read morehad a bottle service table reserved and he made it work for what we needed. The music was by far one of the best DJs we've ever experienced, which was just so perfect and made my birthday really special. I loved that our table was so close to the DJ and it was comfortable seating for a private party and I would come back and do my party here again. I didn't eat the food but my party said that it was incredibly good. The only negative is that we ordered two tomahawks and they brought the second one out so late that we really couldn't eat it anymore. We were already way past dinner. Thank you to the entire staff, including the women helping me make the reservation for my milestone birthday with 10 of my closest girlfriends.

Calamari is always a hit here and a must order. This dinner turned into a night out we ordered a bottle and were met with cheerful bottle service ladies bubble gun included. Our waiter Sam was very attentive and made sure all of our mixers were adequately filled and made sure we made no drinks ourselves. Spot is a vibe with an open ceiling and intimate floor concept perfect for a date night or night out with the boys.

Omg they were so good, there was a gravy with the steak and the small herbs on top were chefs kiss. Scallop had this refreshing cucumber topping. If you're looking for something different for date night definitely stop by ! Located in a small business area surrounded by corporate buildings. Parking was easy with designated front parking in the parking structure (free validation) and then you have a quick walk across the small road to the restaurant.

This restaurant is located in a business plaza. We sat inside but outside it looked cozier and nicer. It was interesting because there weren't a lot of people and it was very quiet. They were playing house music and other remixes, but the ambience still felt a little weird because everyone around us was not talking to each other lol. Service was just okay. Our waiter did a great job explaining the menu to us, but we originally wanted to get the New York strip but they were sold out, so we ended up getting the Wagyu Zabuton instead. It took about 30 minutes for our food to come out, and everything we ordered came out at once. Felt like forever tho because we were hungry, and our waiter didn't seem to be around much to give us updates. For the food: -Wagyu Zabuton:This was good and was the closest alternative to the New York strip we originally wanted. They use a wood-fired grill, so the meat had a nice smoky flavor. -Brussel sprouts I think this was actually my favorite thing we ordered. They were really crispy and I liked all the garnishes. -Rigatoni: Also good! The sausage had a spicy kick, but I'm not sure if I would order it again. Overall, I'm not sure if I would come back. was also disappointed that they didn't have what we originally came for. Also the vibe was interesting. Maybe I'll have better luck next time! Also, make sure you validate parking. :)
