“Ate at the Jamboree location in Tustin and cashier Ali was courteous, kind, knowledgeable and very helpful in helping us understand the menu options. Even offered a couple samples to make sure we ordered something we’d enjoy. Great customer service!“

“had the ahi tuna salad. it was awesome.“

“Danielle S went above and beyond during our visit. When the gyro was unavailable, she made a thoughtful customer-focused decision. She handled the situation confidently, showed great judgment, and clearly put customer satisfaction first. Her decision-making and leadership mindset show she has the potential to be a strong supervisor or manager in the near future.“

“Irvine Breakfast Club is an amazing hidden gem! Nestled right in Irvine, you'll find wonderful, kind and sincere service.

The food is absolutely delicious! I had the Breakfast Club sandwich, and the bacon was delightfully crispy and flavorful, the eggs were fluffy and even the bread was toasted perfectly. My wife had the Breakfast Burrito, which was perfectly proportioned with fresh ingredients and the salsa on the side had great flavor to add to the meal!

The eating area in the restuaraunt is quaint and cozy with a real small town ambiance to it. It really felt like being at home, without having to cook your own food!

Our Breakfast was a great experience, and we look forward to coming back“

“I went in today and Izzy helped me out with my bowl, she was very patient and understanding as it was my first time back in a while. Overall the staff was super friendly, the store was very clean and the portions are great! Will be coming back again soon!“

“I’ve been working across the street for years now and this is the first time I’ve ever tried this place. I ordered the supreme tuna sandwich and the chicken rice soup and it was amazing! And the service was Incredibleas well. The guys in there were so nice and so accommodating I really recommend this place for lunchtime, especially when you’re limited to an hour lunch. The guys are so quick and timely to prepare your lunch for you, and really know how to help you out when you’ve never been there before. I will definitely be back. I highly recommend this place“

“I was craving Greek food, needed something quick, and I found this place based on reviews. Everything we ordered (combination gyro, Greek salad, combination plate) was on point and fresh, and the waiter who took my order was very friendly and polite. I would definitely go back again soon.“

“Very accommodating! Delicious! Beautiful plates and great service! Emily was great!“

“Fast and friendly service. I like the current loyalty points system- so much easier than hunting for an app, login info, rewards, erc. All you need is your phone number. I got the protein bowl with chicken and it was excellent. Nice and bright inside too. They do school fundraisers which brought me out to lunch today, and the experience was well worth it.“

“I had an amazing experience at Olive Garden in Irvine! From the moment we walked in, everything exceeded expectations. The food was absolutely delicious, flavorful, and served hot. Every dish we tried was spot on.
The service was just as impressive. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our visit. You can really tell the team takes pride in what they do.
A special shoutout to General Manager Miguel Jimenez for running such a fantastic restaurant. It’s clear that great leadership makes all the difference. We’ll definitely be coming back soon!“

“Great vibes, great service, especially Daniel! the food for brunch, lunch and Dinner is what keeps us thinking of our next visit !this place is about to go off!“

“Better than Halal Guys. Yeah I said it. Go taste for yourselves.“

“The soup, the salad, the sandwich, and John along with all the service team!!“

“One of our favorite Mediterranean spots, their bowls and wraps are so delicious. I love how customizable the bowls are and the variety of toppings. My move is a bowl with half rice / salad and half fries as the base, half chicken and gyro for the protein, and all the toppings. The fries are McDonald’s-level good imo. I also highly recommend trying all the sauces at the sauce station - my faves are the dill tzatziki and the cilantro jalapeño. Yum! Service was also great at this location, Namrata was patient and friendly answering all our questions :)“

“Exelente servicio y muy deliciosas pizzas 🍕“

“This is my go-to spot on the way to work! The staff are always polite, friendly, and greet you with a smile. Great selection of drinks and cakes, and everything is consistently fresh and delicious. Definitely one of my favorite places to stop by for a quick treat or coffee.“

“I ordered the BJ’s House Special pasta and it was undeniably delicious and also comes with garlic bread! The staff was extremely friendly, attentive and accommodating. Dare I say the most affordable price for large quantity and great quality Italian cuisine in the area!“

“unique cocktails, blts, chicken sandwiches“

“Superb Japanese restaurant that is set in a modern, elevated dining space. The quality of the food is great and very delicious. They have a large menu filled with classic sushi, sashimi, rolls, and other entrees. The staff are very friendly and helpful. This was the first time I have ever seen double sided chopsticks, which were very interesting and helpful.“

“I eat here a couple of times a week. It's so healthy and delicious. The Poke burrito rocks!“

“My firm has been a tenant here for several years and in two different suites. Office rent and ancillary costs are very reasonable, leasing office staff is always helpful and accommodating, and any needed repairs are addressed promptly. 10/10 would highly recommend!“

“Come try it out! Santa Barbara Char and Chicken Club are my all time favorite“

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

“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.“

“Best Cobb salads!!! Plus free shakes on your half birthdays! 😀“

“👍🍕🍕🍺Great pizza with a vet & first responders discount!“

“I love this place. Good delicious wings, good fries and good beer. Sports on their big screens. I order on their simple website for pick-up and it is consistently good. I just eat a few wings (take the rest home) and drink a mango cart. All things considered, prices are reasonable.“

“I tried to order using the online system and it goofed. Of course I only noticed when I got home. But I called and the girls there (I’m so sorry I don’t remember their names) made it beyond right and I appreciate it so much. I would definitely recommend eating here but maybe not ordering through the online app with any 1/2 topping specification tho. ;)

Also, the cheesy breadsticks are great! The pizzas looked good (even with an error) and my husband loved his custom white pie. Would recommend for food AND service!“

“I was in town on business staying nearby and a coworker and I came and ordered the power acai bowls. The food was made quick and we took it back to the hotel we were staying at nearby.

The bowls were delicious. The strawberries and bananas were so fresh and withthe peanut butter, was very delicious.

I had accidentally left my hotel keys at the restaurant and they brought the keys back to the hotel while I was sitting in the lobby. What great customer service! Thank you and I will be back if I'm in the area again.“

“Love the Monster! Turkey, ham, roast beef, swiss and avocado! yum!“

“Love this place! Food is always great. Made fresh. Staff are always nice and give great service. My favorite thing to get here is the TUNA MELT! I am not a fan of tuna at all until I had theirs. There are times where they will run out because they make a certain amount of tuna salad for the day. Not complaining about that, I just know that it was made fresh that day, so I definitely love it! So order ahead by calling in. If you're not a fan of it at all, give any of their sandwiches a try and ask them to add that chipotle sauce, changes everything, you will thank you me later. If you are in the Irvine area, give them a try!

Kid-friendliness: They have baby seat chairs for dine-in and kid friendly items as well.

Parking: Since this is a small cafe surrounded by business establishments it will be difficult to park but it is fortunate that you do not have to pay for any parking. Usually people come to just pick up and go so parking isn't usually a problem.“

“Rubios Coastal Grill is a great choice in the fast casual restaurant segment. The menu is simple: tacos, burritos, and quesadillas, with the usual appetizers you know and love.

The chips and guacamole taste fresh, and I like that I don't have to look for jalapeños so I can share with my kids.

The burritos were flavorful and the ingredients tasted fresh. They do manage to put plenty of meat in the burritos and it didn't leave us feeling like they had shorted some ingredients.

Our host was friendly and did us a great service of providing some advice that saved us some money. Looking out for the customer is a rare gift and we're glad she was engaged with our order to recognize the opportunity.

The restaurant is well-maintained. Our table had been cleaned just before we sat down. The salsas were fresh, and there really was no mess anywhere. As with any fast casual place, the atmosphere is not jarring and allows you to enjoy your meal at a reasonable pace. However, like all other similar restaurants, you will not stay longer that necessary.“

“Great service and amazing food“

“I was a patient at Hoag Irvine. For lunch I decided to have delivery from this Japanese restaurant.
All I can say was that I'm glad I did.
The sushi was very tasty and fresh with nice size portions. I'll be back with friends minus the hospital stay.

Cheers“

“Very sweet cashiers, amazing customer service. First time visiting this location and had amazing food. Sat outside which most places call you to go inside to pick up your food, not here. They brought our food to us and gave restaurant-like service asking every so often if we needed anything!“

“Great 👍 n very patient servers! Always helpful.“

“Best clam chowder and Michael is awesome. Attentive and helpful.“

Atmosphere (5/5) : highly cleaned inside and we have a fav high table (road side). The best.

Overall we enjoyed all our visits and repeat customer for Sure.

“If you're bulking, this place is your new friend. This is the kind of meal that makes you want to skip the shower and just eat 2500 calories of heavenly, saucy chicken and fries in one sitting. Great portions and sauce choices. If you’re not at the Buffalo Spot after your gym session you’re doing it wrong.“

“Each of the people that prepared our pizza were top tier!!! They prepared it so fast and as ordered. The guy cooking 12 pizzas at once cooked every single one perfectly while the woman doing the final prep was methodically managing the final steps. It was great teamwork, my pizza was ready in like 8 minutes and they all seemlessly performed their role!!! My son loved the pineapple pizza too.“

“Surprisingly good pizza restaurant that delivers quality pizza that does not hold back on the toppings. The dough was soft with good chew and the toppings were delicious. They cut their pizzas into square pieces. The interior is very clean and organized and the staff are friendly.“

“Founded in 2012 and with locations nationwide, The Pizza Press wants you to "be newsworthy" by creating your own custom pizza/wings or selecting a signature pizza/salad and pairing with one of the many craft beers on tap. The restaurant theme is inspired by 1920s Americana newspaper which explains why their signature pizzas have names like "The Times" and "The Tribune".

We visited the Woodbridge location off Barranca Parkway for dinner after catching a movie at the AMC next door. The restaurant was busy and looked to be popular among local teenagers and families. There's also a playground conveniently located outside. We ordered the Publish Your Own (PYO) Pizza and topped it with fresh and premium ingredients like spicy red sauce, minced garlic, mozzarella, pepperoni, smoked ham, bacon, meatballs, mushrooms and jalapeños. Service was friendly and efficient. If you're a fan of the 'build your own pizza' concept and you've never been before, then it's time to check out The Pizza Press!“

“I love to grab to-go lunch during work. The food is so delicious - I love their Double Char Burger. My boyfriend loves the veggie burger.

I got the same char burger (and he got the veggie burger) at another Habit, and it didn’t compare to the one I got here. You guys are the best cooks! They’re also great at finishing the meal in 10 minutes, so it’s always ready once I arrive.“

“Very tasty. I enjoyed. Thanks“

“没事过来吃个牛排，味道很好，装修也不错，吃的很爽“

“Logic is missing those days. Young kid cuts me off in line. Turns out he is only applying for a job. So instead going ahead with customers she ask the manager regarding job openings... Let's see how the food is... Usually eat at in and out because over there the always made fresh when ordered. In the past here felt like sandwiches keept warm. Food was good. Service some senior girl didn't listen asked for no salt. Fries 🍟 still full of salt :-( Ohh told her for here but everything packed up to go. Look at how much we wasted for a small sandwich... No wonder we are the most wasteful C in the world. Staff need better training!“

“Affordable menu, healthy dining options, tasty hamburger, and friendly service 👍“

“Love the fresh food options 🙌“

“Corner Bakery is one of those places that always feels warm and welcoming. The atmosphere is cozy, casual, and perfect for everything from a quick breakfast to a relaxed lunch. The pasta dishes are especially comforting—fresh, flavorful, and portioned generously. Pairing them with their signature soups or salads makes for a really satisfying meal.

The staff is friendly and attentive, and food usually comes out quickly, even during busier hours. I also love that they have plenty of healthier options alongside the more indulgent ones, so it’s easy to find something for every mood.“

“Guy is working the entire restaurant in Irvine on Barranca by himself today with a smile. Amazing, dude is amazing. I'm working harder today because of him.“
