“What an awesome venue. David and Joe took very good care of my group. I brought 48 people up from San Diego for a viewing of Top Gun. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. The food was great and the atmosphere was just incredible. I love the nostalgia behind Rick's cafe and the theater was not only comfortable but absolutely gorgeous. Might people are raving about their visit. I would like to thank David and joe, and the rest of the staff at regency theater. You made our day trip perfect.PS. Cleanest, best smelling restrooms ever!“
“Excellent restaurant and bar, with a wine room and a good selection of various wines. They have a surf andturf special on Tuesdays consisting of steak and lobster tail that is very reasonably priced and quite tasty. The service is excellent.“
“3/2/2024Had a pretty perfect dinner with my friends. The steak salad was perfect and I also enjoyed the spinach dip. I wasn't drinking so would like to go back and try the wine. Service was good and the restaurant was clean. I'll be back on another trip. The live music was good too.“
“After a long day at a conference at The Ritz, ten of us took an uber to this gem of a restaurant. The atmosphere is very warm and inviting. The smell of wood-fired pizza immediately set my mind on pizza and wine. We were greeted warmly and seated quickly. Everyone in our party raved about the food they ordered. Our server was delightful, fun, and knowledgable and she managed our party perfectly. I look forward to returning.“
“I didn't know i could LOVE indian food until i visited Kiaan's. Oh my good gravy..... So tasty!!! I do not do spicy AT ALL so appealing to my taste buds can be challenging. Amrit couldn't have been more accommodating and assured me i would be happy. He was right. The chicken curry was my favorite. It was so creamy and smooth and delicious. The naan was perhaps the best i have had...loaded with butter and garlic flavors. The service could not be more excellent; the perfect mix of friendly and prompt and so comfortable. I know the restaurant is owner/ family operated and the attention to detail and care shows. Fine dining complete with white tablecloths and napkins. So very elegant and yet pricing was so reasonable!!I know they are now open 7 days a week and i cannot wait to come back with my husband! Such a wonderful addition to Talega in San Clemente. THE BEST!“
“Their passion shines through in everything they do. Not only are they a winery, but they also offer exceptional food beyond the typical cheese boards and crackers. The ambiance is remarkable—far from the usual brown, oaky wine setting. It's opulent yet inviting, adorned with cheerful colors. My first visit was delightful, and I look forward to returning soon.“
“I would argue that this is one of the best coffee shops in California.I stopped in for a bite to eat and then I left with a loaf of bread. Let me tell you, this place just became my next addiction.The jam and butter biscuit was from heaven itself. They serve OLIPOP which is my FAVORITE drink to find at a coffee shop when I don’t want any more caffeine.I can’t wait to stop in again for more treats!For more reviews follow me here on google or on instagram @audrey.pulliam“
“We made reservations for Dublin4 and it seemed pretty wild so they walked next door and sat up at the high top at Wineworks. Such a better atmosphere. Both restaurants share the same kitchen and restrooms. And there’s a lot of similarities between the menus but this has the better options.I always complain that OC doesn’t have great food but this place knows the game. And the wine menu is excellent. I even had a Pinot Noir from Baden, Germany. All dishes were excellent and the service was even better. Only complaint is the parking is terrible so good luck, maybe the lot is bigger in the back.“
“We really enjoyed the service by Taylor. We picked a wine flight to sample that was too fruity and not in our desired palette, Taylor noticed and brought us something drier and more of our liking. We found some wines we really liked and ordered some glasses of wine after our wine flight. Would recommend for service and atmosphere. A fun date spot for before or after dinner. This is my second visit here.“

“This is the coolest place on the lake. Great wine, great view, great cheese, great service! We came here with my mom who was visiting from out of town and had never experienced anything like it. It was great to be able to try so many different wines with their card system. The owner/ managers were so helpful and friendly. They allow dogs on the patio and have blankets to use when the sun goes dog and it gets cold. We will for sure be brining back any visitors.“
“So after reading about this Hillstone copycat we finally decided to try it. Houston’s which is one of the Hillstone brands has changed their signature Tortilla Soup recipe and not liking the new version I decided to try the Coastal Kitchen version. I rate it a 9.5 copy of the original from Houston’s. It needed a little more cheese but was excellent in every other aspect and it alone will bring me back. The starter salad with the honey mustard dressing was on point and actually better than Houston’s. Our guests had the chowder which in every way resembled the Houston’s version. Their French Dip was enjoyed by our other guest and the fries were perfect. My wife’s blackened grouper sandwich was merely ok and quite frankly since most of the menu is an excellent Hillstone knockoff then I would suggest recreating the Gulfstream Gulf Coast Style Fish Sandwich. The only negative menu item we sampled was the Chicken BLT. It was not awful but the chicken was overcooked as was the bacon and it doesn’t even come close to competing with the Ding’s Crispy Chicken Sandwich at the Hillstone locations. I’m all for innovation and signature changes but if you’re going to do that then maintain the same high quality and taste standard for all the menu items. All of us agreed we will be back to try the rest of the menu for lunch and dinner. Service was excellent and the atmosphere although a little acoustically challenging was comfortable and inviting. I came close to rating this establishment five stars but they just fall a little short of that mark. Still well worth a visit and I hope to revise my rating in the future. Look out Hillstone you have a worthy challenger and that’s high praise in itself.“
“We felt bad but while we were waiting for our table at tutto we stopped by uncorked to grab a glass of wine. They were closed but the owner was still inside. She reopened her wine bar and treated us like we we're family. Amazing service with a massive wine selection 20/10“
“Super impressed by this place. We will definitely go to Barnoa Wine Company again. We were here on a Friday for Happy Hour. The wine was delicious and the charcuterie board very good. We sat outside and they did a great job making it feel secluded. Live music is always a plus for us. They say it’s a “hidden gem”, and we agree.“
“I stopped eating meat But I cheated!! The food is delicious! I had the a blue cheese wedge salad with pieces of medium rare steak. Yummy!! I am watching calories. I eat here and lost ( 28 lbs) Girls just tell the cook you are watching calories and express your likes and OMG!!!!! Service is Awesome! Ambiance is like a family setting.“
“Nothing bad to say, the food was outstanding, the meatballs and potatoes wedges were excellent. Nichole, our server was kind and incredibly organized, we brought our dog and multiple employees came out to learn her name and talk to us about her. The drinks were great too! (Mai tai. The pricing was fair for the quality of food and atmosphere.“
“I honestly cannot understand any negative reviews for this restaurant. Not only is it beautiful, but the food is wonderful! Their round pizzas have the most special and unique crisp crust. It’s just phenomenal! The toppings are thoughtful and high quality. The umami mushroom and la foresta were some of the best pizzas I’ve ever had anywhere. The salads are delicious as well.I’m so happy to have somewhere special nearby that takes pride in their food and doesn’t taste like every other place around.“
“Was traveling for business and had Sunday free so I went to Laguna to watch sunset from Heisler park. Saw this little gem on the corner and decided to pop in after. Rich was fantastic! It was just us for most of the evening so since it was quiet we were able to chat and he offered so many wonderful recommendations. I had the rose and the Sauvignon blanc and both were fantastic. Will definitely be back!!“
“Went in on a cloudy Sat. afternoon and was greeted with very friendly service. Found wines both my husband and I enjoyed. We were going to order food from their menu, but they told us that a local pizza co. would be setting up in the back, if we wanted to wait for that. We ended up ordering a charcuterie and a couple pizzas, and it was all delicious! We went to Frisby to try something new and walked out as wine members! Looking forward to our next visit.“
“This small wine and deli boutique is located in a small strip just behind a gas station. Limited parking but there is handicap parking.They have metal tables outside the door for relaxing and consuming your meal.The door is covered with signage and rules but don't let that deter you from entering the establishment.The inside drink and wine area is clean and well-stocked. The organization of the products was great. As I walked to the back, to my right was a wine tasting bar and to my left was a pretty nice deli. The young lady at the cash register greeted me upon entering. When I walked to the back of this quaint deli/wine store I came to a cooler well stocked with local and imported drinks of all kinds. It's not just a wine bar. It's not just a deli. It's an experience.They had many sandwiches to choose from but I chose the sausage breakfast burrito. It was recommended by the clerk that I get some green sauce with it and she was right. The burrito was pretty big and crafted with care. With each bite, I had a taste of the eggs, sausage, cheese, and hashbrowns. Many burritos I encounter are just thrown together and rolled up where you get a different burrito in each bite. You could see the care even in the wrapping and cutting in half for easier consumption.The size of the burrito:The burrito is about as round as a Starbucks Venti cold cup and the length of a Venti Starbucks plastic straw. The breakfast burrito was cut in half for easier consumption.It took about five minutes for the burrito to be ready for me to take it to go. Total was $10.76 with tax as of 1/7/24 and was worth it.It was a lot of fun browsing the cold fridge drinks and entertaining myself with their clever names while I waited for my meal.I definitely recommend this secret wonder if you're ever in the Aliso Viejo, Ca area.“
“Beautiful Italian menu with lots of variety. No beach view but still close to the shore. Service was really nice... polite, engaging, attentive. We had the meatball sandwich, three pizzas, the bread, chicken parmesan and the ravioli. Everyone enjoyed their meals, although there was agreement that the food was just slightly under seasoned. Great spot for a quick lunch. The favorite was the chicken parmesan.“
“Stop by this place after brunch around the corner and decided to do the blind test of three different wines ..I'm far from an expert or anything but we did enjoyed and had fun trying to guess what our wines were. If you guess it right, you get it free!! lol Also ordered a charcuterie board Sat at the patio. Wanted to go to the upper level but they had a private party going on. It sounded fun! Hey, so if you're having some sort of private event, maybe you should consider the idea of looking up this place. Service was attentive. We had our dog with us and they were nice enough to let us bring her to the patio area with us and enjoy the sunny weather.“
