After being awake for 36 hours straight and flying in from WPB, I did not feel like going out for dinner. I sat at the bar and ordered a burger. I was very surprised at how big the burger actually was and how it tasted. A very good choice for a meal. Staying at this hotel for 3 nights so I will leave a review for that. I will be eating breakfast here Friday morning before my flight back to WBP, so hopefully that's as good as the burger was. Very good for a hotel restaurant.
The fish tacos were tasty along with the mango salsa which was fresh. The taco shells were covered with fried cheese on the outside which was a nice touch, and the fish was blackened cod.
I can't give 5 stars because some of the food was only okay (the Macadamia Ahi, and cheesecake), despite kinda high prices of $20-$35 for entrees. But the sliders, club sandwich, and the guava sorbet were absolutely worth the trip!!
And best of all, our server Deanne provided easily the kindest and most superb service I've had in the last 20 years! I'd never even heard of this restaurant before happening upon it via Google "nearby", and yet it felt like going to an old high school friend's house for dinner! I will definitely be coming back!
Overall, an incredibly relaxed and low-key restaurant that doesn't try to be anything wacky to stay interesting. Just "simple" food done extremely well, with by far the nicest staff you could possibly meet late at night on a weekend!
While I didn't make it to this restaurant, I did stay at the Doubletree and it was a very good Hilton. Rooms are comfortable and service is excellent! Make sure you get the warm chocolate chip cookies!! We did get room service and the food was very good. Thus hotel is in a great location making it easy to get around the area.
Great food and best services!
I had one of the best gluten free meals I've ever had here! Very chill atmosphere with great service. I'll be back!
It’s a great place for lunch I wish they would be open earlier than 3.30pm. Oysters, beers, white wine, tuna tartare are great. Dinner menu could be more sufficient, not really impressive. Vibes are also ok.. unless you get the booth overlooking el Paseo it saves everything.
I came here in late May of 2021. We stayed at the DoubleTree hotel which is the hotel adjacent to this restaurant. Generally good service, I say generally because there are times when they don't pay attention to you or your needs.
Okay menu not much choice here again this is a small boutique restaurant adjacent to a hotel as part of the hotel.
Until the DoubleTree don't pass up those cookies. One cookie per person per day however you can usually get two or three!!
All in all a decent place to eat however the Irvine spectrum probably give you lots more choices and much better service.
Fresh salads, fish, with delectable flavors. Service is prompt, courteous, and so willing to help with suggestions, great wine pairings. A little expensive, but the quality of the food outweighs that. I had a shrimp and avocado small plate that looked like small tacos, but the shell was pressed from jicama. So refreshing! Spinach salad with grilled salmon was so good, very generous portions of fresh spinach and artichoke, tomatoes, with a flavorful vinaigrette. Lovely! Highly recommend.
Must visit restaurant in Irvine, CA. My steak was perfect and the salad was evenly distributed with dressing. Service was damn near perfect, highly recommend. Will visit again.
