“Stopped in for lunch at the bar inside Whole Foods Market in Irvine and had a much better experience than I ever expected. This isn’t just a typical grocery store café—this is a legit spot for a quality meal and cold draft beer.

We ordered two bacon cheeseburgers and were impressed across the board. The burgers were cooked just right, with thick slices of bacon, crisp lettuce, fresh tomato, and perfectly melted cheese stacked inside a soft, glossy bun. The presentation was great—each burger served on a metal tray lined with custom Whole Foods wrap paper, paired with a mini fryer basket of hot, crispy fries and a stainless ramekin of ketchup. The fries were golden and fresh, with just the right amount of salt and a great texture.

There’s something satisfying about sitting at a clean, well-lit bar with natural light pouring through the windows and a long row of taps behind the counter. The beer selection here is impressive, especially for being inside a market. A wide range of local and craft brews on draft gave us plenty of choices. The pours were cold, crisp, and served in proper pint glasses with just the right head.

The bartender was courteous, quick, and knowledgeable—not just about the beer but also about the menu. Service felt personal and attentive without being overbearing. You can tell they care about maintaining quality here, and it showed in both the food and the way the staff treated us.

All around, this is a great place to sit down for a relaxing lunch or early dinner. Plenty of parking right outside, and you can grab groceries afterward if you need to. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area and want something casual but done right. Would absolutely return.“

“A huge shoutout to Jazleen at Danny K's! She provided absolutely fantastic service during our recent casual meal. Not only was she incredibly friendly and amazingly efficient, but she was also exceptionally helpful.

“I’ve been coming to The Place since right out of college and it is the best. If there were six stars, I would give that rating. Wonderful owner and staff, really fun place to watch a game and excellent food and drinks. If you like a good patty melt, theirs is by far the best around. Doug“

“only there for 2 beers. service at bar was great. Not sure why...but you use the Touch tunes and it is at a lower volume than the house music playing.“

“Our waiter may have been the only wait staff working a practically full restaurant on a Saturday night but still managed every aspect of service for our party of two plus a birthday song, photos and videos for the tourists on top of a very good meal, much better than expected. Nice surprise for a movie-side restaurant and much better than the typical fast food options. We will no doubt return soon.“

“TV, adult beverages & relaxation“

“Buen ambiente y divertido“

“Amazing atmosphere. Great service. Amazing people.“

“Great Service and very Friendly Atmosphere. I love coming here and feel welcomed“

“We stopped by here before a Gwen Stefani concert. Any lounge experience is usually a treat, but the food was really good, the drinks top notch, and the server was very courteous and checked on us often.
Premiere ticket holders have access to this lounge before concerts or games. The buffet is $70 per person and includes nonalcoholic drinks. There’s a nice bar inside if you only need drinks. Definitely worth a visit.

Parking: On a concert night, it’s best to ride Uber or Lyft if you want to avoid the traffic you’ll be stuck in when leaving“

“Love it for the great live music on Saturday nights. So Underrated for a great place to hear live bands!! Nice, friendly people“

“In our first visit the owner Eddie took care of us. We went to watch the Euro Cup game. I asked Eddie can you put the sound so we can hear the game and he said of course. The place is very family oriented. Food is excellent. Everything about that place is excellent.“

“Perfect place to watch the NFL! Geaux Saints!“

“Great pizza. I would recommend if you never tried, give it a try.“

“Sweet local spot and amazing jalapeño poppers“

“I LOVE THIS PLACE - on Wednesdays, Saturdays & Sundays. The female bartender that works those nights is an absolute joy. Her drinks are awesome & her personality is even better than her drinks. It's a place I go to when I've had a hard day. Great atmosphere, entertaining. But if you want food, order before you actually are hungry because the food court take their time getting the food to you. That has happened to me everytime I order food thru the bartender.“

“This is my new favorite spot! Dropped by after Disneyland they have 2 pool tables and pool was even free til 5 so we got 2 games in free. Drinks were reasonably priced and food was just unreal. Can't wait to come back again next time we're in town.“

“The food was amazing had an Italian sandwich that was monster and it was like $14 it'd be any sandwich for you
can go to any of this had a pool table
and a bar and a lot of friendly locals and outside smoking patio and clean bathrooms. Want more could you ask for it in a little local joint? I will come back for sure today was my second time in two months“

“Good cozy tavern bar. Small place, good spot to stop on your bar hopping day. The food is too expensive tho. The turkey sandwich was dry and the fries were over cooked and too salty.

If it gets really busy it can be hard for the solo bartender to get back around to you. Over all go check it out.“

“Great place for drinks bartender was awesome and super nice. Great beer selection and great music too“

“Great time! Bartender Trish and Security Chemo make it a great time. I’d be back just for them 😜“

“wonderful service. great food! Hawaiian burger and sweet potato fries!“

“Nice place.“

“Hosted a 40 people surprise party at GameCraft and I have never worked with a better brewery!!

Their small team of 4 were super accommodating to our requests, even though they were busy all day, and the drinks were BOMB (props to the brewmaster).

We were pleasantly surprised that they had a nerd market that day AND karaoke at 7 pm.
Even though we only booked for 3 hours and was planning to barhop after the event, we all stayed until closing cuz it was such a great place to just chill the night away.

BIGGGG SHOUTOUT to Misa, the hostess+bartender (iykyk) for entertaining our karaoke shenanigans!!“

“Great so fun very accomidating for large parties nice on the water view and great appetizers Sara Alex amazing jeri hawkins wonderful and so many friends valet Parker didn’t want to get out of my car he was so funny“

“The bartender Jaqueline was phenomenal! Sunday football, the place was packed and she single handedly served the entire place both behind the bar, in the dining room with the best food service and was the quickest most efficient lone server on the planet. She absolutely blew me away!!!! Thank you Jacqueline, we had a blast and great games with plenty of TV screens everywhere too!“

“Great little place to have a quick drink or spend a Friday or Saturday night. They have multiple TV sets for watching the game,two pool tables and an old school shuffle board .the place is clean and even they bathrooms were kept clean and fresh.The bartender was a beautiful young woman with an affectionate smile and was busy and still made sure to c g neck on her customers and make sure they were good.i would recommend this spot over any other in the Tustin area come down to nite it's always funn“

“It's your typical neighborhood dive bar. A number of beers on tap and a good selection of cans and bottles. Daily specials are on point. The bartenders are all young and cute and everybody knows your name.There are two dart boards pool table and giant connect four.Plenty of flat screens are available to watch your favorite teams and a booming jukebox with all the jams!Parking is plentiful.The servers are amazing, especially Mckenna and Melissa.“

“this is so far the best mexican restaurant i have been to. authentic mexican food. price is cheap. fajita is nice, shrimp is highly recommended. octopus is super tasty. tacos are really good. and usually not very busy (not many customer). i think this place is underrated. hope more people can know this place and hope their business goes better and better.“

“Chihuahua Cerveza is a total hidden gem in Costa Mesa. The vibe is laid-back, the service is great, and the food absolutely delivers. Their quesadilla is hands down the best around — perfectly grilled, cheesy, and packed with flavor. You can tell they use quality ingredients, and it’s the kind of dish you think about long after you leave.

The drinks are crisp and refreshing, and it’s a perfect spot to hang with friends, grab a beer, and enjoy good food in a fun atmosphere. Every visit feels easy and enjoyable.

If you are anywhere near Costa Mesa, do yourself a favor and get the quesadilla at Chihuahua Cerveza. It is unbeatable.“
