After a fun morning and afternoon watching professional pickleball at Lifetime in San Clemente, my…read moreeldest daughter and I went to Irvine Spectrum for dinner at Yard House (YH). We had a couple Darden gift cards to use up so here we are for the dine-in experience. Parking was a bit challenging as everyone wanted to be at Irvine Spectrum at the same time as us, but we got lucky to snatch a spot. Thank you! YH was nearby so it was less than a few minutes walk from parking to restaurant. We were greeted with a smile upon entry. They were pretty busy, but we got lucky to be seated right away. Thank you again! Nolan, Claire, and Jeff (our servers) were super friendly and amazing in their presence and service. They got our foods and drinks to us timely and checked up on us from time to time. Thank you all for the exceptional service from beginning to end! Now for the food... My 3 mix & match tacos with spicy rice and pinto beans did not impress unfortunately. Cumin Chili Shrimp was tasty, but it lacked substance... it needed more veggies or something. Beer-Battered Fish was the best taco out of the 3 even though I didn't care for the sriracha aioli as it had a strong flavor that I can't describe... huge fish filet though. Vampire Carnitas had flavorful pork, but its exterior was fried with cheese or something that made it a salty taco. Rice is labeled spicy, but it's not spicy at all... pretty bland. Pinto beans were okay... nothing special. Hence, 4 stars! My daugther got the Whisky Glazed Salmon with tomato bisque as an add-on. WOW, black pepper glazed salmon was out of this world delicious! Parmesan mashed potatoes were delightfully smooth. Roasted carrots and baby broccoli were tenderly sweet. Tomato bisque was perfectly seasoned. Highly recommend plate and add-on! I should have gotten an order of this salmon plate instead of the tacos. Next time I know better. I couldn't help myself and order more food... - Truffled Mushroom Pizza was nicely done. Love the truffle flavor and aromatic mushrooms. Very tasty and would get again. - Onion Ring Tower fell short unfortunately with its flat and non-crispy batter. It came with two different dips... light ranch and honey mustard I think. Tower presentation was impressive though... it gets an A+ for appeal! I'll pass on this next time though. - Sweet Potato Fries were pretty standard. Nothing too exciting. It came with a dark honey dip which was different. Now for the drink... Picante Margarita virgin style was refreshingly delightful. If I wasn't driving, I would get it with the liquor (calirosa rosa blanco, orange liqueur, citrus agave, cayenne syrup, tajin rim). Will get again hopefully with the liquor next time! =) We're not frequent customers of YH, but now we've tasted their foods and drinks... we will indeed return for more deliciousness... salmon plate, pizza, and margarita here we come. Thanks YH! See you again soon!

We came on a Saturday afternoon for lunch/dinner. To start, the wait wasn't that bad which was…read morenice! I think we waited 15-20 minutes. It was quick for a Saturday :) Food- Great! We all ordered very different things (beer, cocktails, pancakes, chicken wraps, fries, salads, poke, burger, ice cream sundae) and all were great :) Service- Our waiter and waitress were really sweet and helpful. There were a few shift changes so some orders got lost in translation and we had to ask a few times about food that we ordered. A few of our items were forgotten about but we eventually got them :) All of the staff was great, but I think some things got a little lost among the business of a Saturday, which I think was also prom night as we saw some parties dressed up!

The service was great, both Matt & Margo were very helpful. We tried a few items and everything was satisfying, especially the fried chicken sandwich and their take on a classic Reuben.

He somehow remembers what people like, makes every drink perfectly, and keeps things moving even when it is busy without ever seeming stressed. What really sets him apart though is how he treats people. He is not just making drinks, he is creating an experience. You can tell he actually cares, and that is rare. Honestly I am not even exaggerating when I say I am a little disappointed every time I walk in and he is not there. It just does not hit the same without him. If you get the chance to have Marcus as your bartender you will get it instantly.

I would avoid this Dave & Busters in the future…read more The first time was okay. Their food overpriced. The service was crappy. My son's surfboard popped from the $30 spent for 2 items at "The Human Crane." He was really upset about it and begged to go back and win another one. So we went back today Tuesday during the week to buy another one. The sign says they are always open and to ask a team member. Each team member did not want to help and pushed back. Mind you there were no other guests there. I spoke to two different team members. The female bartender and another man who was lazy and gave every excuse not to operate it. We were on our way out and I mentioned to the hostess at the front what happened. She got the manager. Segue to a fourth convo with the manager and I'm like, hey I was gong to spend $30 more on Human Crane and more on games. At this point can they just replace the surfboard. I showed him the picture from this past Saturday. He kept repeating he didn't want to make my life hard but he needed me to bring in the popped surfboard remnants. I mentioned I had a knee surgery and it's hard on me to walk. He continued on he would just be need the surfboard to damage out and kept cutting me off. I would not spend a dime more of my money at this location. They are a joke. Not only are they massively overpriced; it has to be the worst customer service I've experienced at any Dave and Busters nationwide.

The atmosphere is perfect if you're looking for a spot with delicious food and a relaxed, casual vibe. The service was excellent--specifically Natalie, who was incredibly helpful. I asked her for her take on the Miso Burger, and her description was spot on and helped me decide it was exactly what I was looking for. We did have a bit of a wait for the food, but honestly, it was expected given what we ordered, and the quality made it well worth it. Also, don't sleep on the Meyer Lemon Aioli; it was the perfect pairing with the fries. Definitely a solid go-to for a casual meal

I wish I could give less than one star because of the girl working at the bar on 3/14-3/15. She refused to give me her name for this review. I understand that everyone wants to go home, but if the bar closes at 2:00 AM, then staff should be prepared to work until at least that time--not start rushing people out at 1:30 AM. I used to work as a bartender and waitress myself, so I understand how the job works. But if your closing time is 2:00 AM, then that's the time you should actually close. Anthony gave his name and was nice, but the girl... she was extremely rude and honestly does not belong behind the bar. We got there at 10:30 PM, so it's not like we showed up last minute. Overall, the experience tonight was disappointing.

Bryce is incredibly attentive, friendly, and welcoming, remembers faces, checks in at the right moments and keeps the energy upbeat without ever being overbearing. He's the kind of bartender that makes you want to come back because you feel taken care of and appreciated. Jo was also great and added to the warm, inviting atmosphere, but Bryce really anchors the experience behind the bar. The crowd during trivia is always fun and lively, which makes the night fly by. The burger was excellent juicy, flavorful, and cooked just right and the menu is moderately priced, especially considering the quality. Overall, it's a fantastic neighborhood spot with great service, good food, and a welcoming vibe. Bryce alone is worth the visit, and I'll definitely be back again.
