29 Best American Restaurants in Irvine

“Great food, nice clean place and fun atmosphere, I also like that we can eat outside. Great service!“

“My husband, toddler and I went here for an early lunch. We got there right when it opened and they were a little slow to get us set up. But the server was excellent and very professional. I got the Spa Water drink, it was very nice for a warm morning. We sat on the patio by the pool and my toddler was loud, no problems. The food was perfectly priced for the quality. I’d definitely come eat here again and may even consider staying at the hotel.“

“I love this place…!!! Been coming here for many years…!!! Never disappoints… tasting menu is a must try at least once… you may try it again and again and never get the same thing… but ALWAYS good…!!!“

“My daughter discovered Maldon’s a couple of months ago and loved it. Today it was her restaurant of choice for her birthday (four family members are gluten sensitive).

I can’t say enough good things about this place! We had the French onion soup, BLT, hamburger, Eggs Benedict, vegetable medley sandwich, Popovers and Cinnamon Rolls and wine. Everyone was exchanging bites with each other because it was all so good. It was so wonderful to be in an environment where I didn’t have to grill the staff on what was truly gf. The staff was attentive and friendly. Adam who was bartending was very engaging and sent over tastes of different drinks he was making. He’s the nephew of the owner and a fountain of information. He told us they have an exclusive proprietary flour that they use. Overall the service was not particularly fast; but it was Saturday and we were there to enjoy ourselves. The singing guitarist added to the charming ambiance.

I was hoping to try their chocolate chip cookies, but they were out. Guess I’ll have to come back again and again until I’ve tried everything!“

“Went with my parents for an early Christmas dinner and service was great… food was delicious… and atmosphere was on point!“

“Great Food and atmosphere! Mosic was our server and he was awesome. Asked what we were into for both food and cocktails and his recommendations were spot on. The Panama Prescription was divine and I loved the shrimp and grits. My husband had the 12 hour short rib and I can’t tell you which was better. We will be back with friends!“

“It was my first time here, and I found this place while searching for a restaurant nearby. I was curious, so I decided to check it out. I was amazed by the delicious food and professional service. I especially loved the vibe of the place; it was really great! Definitely worth the visit!“

“Great food, highly recommend the fried chicken. Servers are fantastic.“

“Food was awesome! Husband got a mushroom swiss burger and said it was amazing ... daughter had a side of Mac and Cheese which she loved and it wasn't a box kraft like some restaurants try to do. I had tomato soup and it was creamy and not to acidic! Yum!
Service was pretty none existent since u order on a machine and then go uo can get your own food after the buzzer and tables we were able to find pretty well on a Sunday afternoon.
Overall great experience“

“Food was good. However, the prices are on the higher end for the amount of food they provide. The dining area is very calm and relaxing. Not many people when I was there around 5pm.

Happy Hour is Daily from 4:30pm to 6pm.“

“Had an amazing family dinner with my sisters here . The Food was delivered quickly and was delicious. Carrot cake is fabulous we ordered the 2 half garlic chicken and full rack family meal which comes with your choice of pasta , salad bread sticks. Added their yummy mashed potatoes also bbq salad with delicious dressing my favorite.“

“I had been eating lunch there for over eight years before our office relocated. The prices are great, the staff is friendly and remembers your preferences, and the food is both tasty and cleanly prepared. Order ahead from their app would help you skip the lunch time wait.“

“For a hotel restaurant and bar. It's done very well. Moving on.

The staff is extremely nice and professional. The options are great for quick bites, lunch or dinner.

The food tastes fresh. The drinks are great.

Upon walking up to the bar area I was greeted immediately. Staff immediately gave me a menu. And mentioned a special that day. They also let me know that there was a happy hour. Happy hour!? Can't go wrong there can we lol.

I've had the club sandwich, wings and burger.

Club sandwich. Pretty much your average club sandwich. However the ingredients are fresh. Yes it's processed turkey slices. But that's ok. They're good quality ones at that. And they don't skimp. It was a very large well proportioned sandwich.

Wings. Alright these are the star of the show.
Simple but done right. You know when you just want something good? And everywhere just over does it trying to be different? Not these. Simple hot wings cooked to perfection. Highly recommend.

Burger.
Ok this is actually insanely good with the bacon.
And their fries are nice and crispy tasty freshness.

So would I recommend this place? Most definitely.
And if you're staying here. No need to go off site for food. The food here is legit.

Enjoy!“

“Food is just OK. Many times the people here don’t know how to cook chicken. The chicken is always too raw and pink. Besides that sometimes they don’t cook food all the way through. However, I’ve had a decent experience with the food and generally I like it. Just stay away from the pizza, not too great. Good value for your dollar as well, and the drinks are great. Lots of options and great + diverse seating, although they fill up quickly.

P.S. their dole whip is delicious.“

“Had a great time having dinner with the steak was juicy and tender with an amazing great taste.“

“Love ❤️ birthday there. It was fantastic.“

“Best comfort food ever! The thing I miss about living in California the most is the spaghetti grilled cheese at Burnt Crumbs. It will change your life. I would order three at a time and eat half a sandwich each day for lunch. If you guys wanna franchise in Detroit let me know lol 💯 💯 🔥 🔥“

“Great atmosphere and great service and good value.“

“We used Terrace Kitchen to cater our wedding and we were so impressed with their service. The food was amazing, served nicely and quickly for such a big wedding. Their staff were all very efficient and proactive with serving drinks and clearing things. The whole venue was kept very tidy throughout the day. Claudia was who we worked with to organise everything and her communication was great, so made everything very easy and nothing was a problem for her to change or organise. Thanks for helping up pull off a perfect day!“
