    We discovered sea beans here, total game changer. Loved them so much that the next time we came…read moreback, we straight-up ordered a side just so we could pour them all over our food. Zero regrets. The Plot's vegan brunch is everything I want in a weekend meal: fresh, flavorful, and satisfying without that post-brunch food coma. I leave feeling amazing, not weighed down, and somehow they pull it off without sacrificing an ounce of flavor. Everything tastes like it was made with actual care (and a little bit of magic). It's honestly one of my favorite brunch spots in Orange County. If you're someone who loves food that's both delicious and good for you, this place will hit every mark. ----------------- :( just saw they're permanently closed, so sad

I loveeee the Oceanside location so I was so happy when this location opened! Every dish is so extraordinary with so much thought put into every aspect of the plate. They use such amazing fresh ingredients & flavors that I never knew would pair well together. I've always had such great service no matter who it is working! Everyone is so kind and welcoming and makes the experience that much better. I also really like the location of this one. The Camp is such a cool spot, and it's interesting that the restaurant is shaped as a circle. The patio seating is so cute and cozy, I love the table with the fire pit on it. It's also dog friendly!! Please go and support! I love this restaurant and want to see it flourish

    August 2026: We love this restaurant with its tasty & healthy offerings so much so that we ate…read morehere twice taking advantage of our time in the area. The first time we visited it was crowded and there was a long line. But, they allowed the two of us to go ahead of the line because the rest were large groups, which we appreciated. The young man who took our order was very kind. We both ordered the chicken entree with steamed brown rice except I opted for the grilled vegetables and hubby chose sweet potato fries. We enjoyed our delicious meals! The chicken was tasty, tender, and grilled to perfection as were my vegetables drizzled in olive oil. The sweet potato fries were so good especially with the their homemade sauce. Eating here allowed my blood sugar to come into range for surgery the next day. It goes on to show a good diet is everything. I knew Flower Child would come through. It was the perfect low carb, high protein meal. The second time we arrived, there was no line so we were able to order right as we got up to the counter. The young lady there was very welcoming. My husband ordered the same thing but I slightly changed the meal opting for a cauliflower risotto in place of the grilled vegetables previously. Delicious! The interior has a whimsical & bright decor and impeccably clean. The high ceilings make it feel very spacious & airy. Looking forward to returning.

    Solstice Seasonal Kitchen & Bar is a subtle, modern restaurant in The Boardwalk on Dupont Drive…read morelocated in the city of Irvine. Plenty of seating both indoor and outdoor with a fireplace outside for those chilly nights and where you can just relax and unwind. It's a very convenient restaurant for the surrounding businesses that would like to grab lunch without having to drive, have meetings or want a drink right after work. I was reviewing some of the dishes a couple of months before our arrival and thought this would be a nice early birthday dinner so I went ahead and reserved the 5pm dinner slot. But now let's get to the food! FOOD Short Ribs Croquettes (Appetizer) These were delightful. Not only cute and presentable but the flavors were delicious, a perfect combination of everything! Especially the aji amarillo aioli. Don't be shy when taking a scoop of the aioli, be sure to give the croquettes a nice drench of it! Highly recommend! Sea Bass Crudo (Appetizer) Presentation may seem a bit flat but I promise you it's packed with flavor! Prepared with citrus ponzu, serrano and garlic chili crunch, the Sea Bass Crudo is definitely refreshing with a bit of a kick! Looking for a shareable seafood type appetizer? Then you should absolutely try this out! Streak Frites This one felt like it would be a nice balanced healthy lunch. Marinated steak with bourbon peppercorn sauce sitting on a bed of fries featuring a nice portion of salad. Had the steak cooked medium and it was just perfect. I wouldn't mind ordering this dish again! Work nearby and want a balance of everything? Then this is the dish for you! Braised Short Rib Probably my favorite one. Meat easily melts in every bite. Paired with those whipped potatoes beneath? Forget it! It may seem like a small dish but it gets filling pretty quick. I think this is another dish I'll be ordering the next time we visit! Peach Butter Cake (Dessert) I seem to have found myself in trouble when taking that first initial bite because I couldn't stop myself indulging its rich flavor! I was already full at this point but this was too damn delicious. It's got the same concept of a pizookie and I'm a sucker for this type of dessert! Love pizookies? Peach jam? Then you should get this! Guarantee you'll have it all to yourself! OVERALL Actually glad we were able to try this place out as I just stumbled upon it a couple months before. Great establishment for dates, small hangouts, big parties or an after work dinner. Spacious interior with comfy seatings and a modern look to the place. Oh and don't forget to get your parking ticket validated! Special thanks to the team and for the GM Chris Teng for checking up on us from time to time to ensure we were enjoying our experience. Definitely will be coming back!

    Pros: flavor dishes, tender proteins, interesting take on drinks, solid menu, nice vibe interior…read moreand exterior. Cons: a tad pricy but not too bad for this tier of restaurant. Notes: service was solid, was pretty busy but still easily accommodated. Attached to what seems to be some other businesses or a hotel or something; there's a parking structure connected to one of the adjacent/connected buildings. Plenty of parking. This is a very borderline place. For this tier/caliber of restaurant I hold them to a higher standard. For the area I think I have to give them 4/5. They were solid. I really enjoyed this place but for this level of restaurant I'm a little pressed to bump them up to a 5/5.

    Our go to when we are craving korean food in Irvine and don't want to drive out to Buena Park. Wait…read moretypically isn't too long and although it seems like they tend to be understaffed, you can tell the workers are working hard to accommodate all the customers. They start off by giving us cups with a jug of water and thermos that has broth from gomtang inside. The menu is pretty extensive a good variety of cold and hot soups and entrees. After you order, they give you a variety of sides to complement the meal which is great to snack on while waiting for the meal. If you have a bigger group, the kalbijjim is perfect to share as it is huge and comes with a lot of braised short rib, veggies, and noodles that have soaked up the sauce. The short rib is so tender and is very rich in flavor. The naengmyeon is cool and refreshing especially on a hot day. The seolleongtang is warm and soothing with salt to adjust to your liking and the purple rice to soak up the depth of the soup broth.

    This ended up being a great spot for Korean comfort food…read more I had the Yukgaejang Mandu (#20), which was great! A nice thick and savory stew of shredded beef and vegetables, which had some heat, yet not overwhelmingly spicy. There was also a dumpling that added some additional heartiness. The banchan was also a good way to start the meal...I left very satisfied. The place is decorated in a simple and casual manner, so the focus is really the food. The service was attentive.

They have a nice patio for outdoor dining. Believe it or not my go-to is a side of rice and beans. It's always good! Ordered a bunch of tacos on this last trip bc of its Taco Tuesday, tacos are the way to go! Reminder...everything is vegan! Chicken, Chorizo, Carnitas (mushroom), and Cauliflower.

For people who are not vegan, it has a description for every dish on the menu which came in handy. The staff is very helpful as well. I tried the Crunchwrap and a Horchata. Both were delicious! The Crunchwrap is massive, I couldn't finish it, but tasted very good! The horchata was my favorite part of the meal, definitely recommend. Good chips and quac too! Not a ton of space here to sit. They have a small patio but it's right along the main road and lots of people walking the street. Good patio music though! The inside is basically just for ordering or picking up. Overall, pretty solid, especially if you're specifically looking for vegan Mexican dishes.
