“This place absolutely blew my mind!! Thank you Scotty for taking care of us the whole evening. The ambience was super cool and intimate. Very trendy and hip. everything we ate was EXCEPTIONAL! We. had the carrots, squash, zucchini bread, swordfish and apple cider doughnuts. I have nothing but amazing things to say about this place and can't wait to return with new friends to introduce to it!“

“stopped here 2 days ago at my arrival to john wayne and again when leaving today. Having a wine place at the airport is amazing, coming from someone who lives in wine country. also great vegetarian options. cannot wait to come back to OC to fly into john wayne and stop here. Staff is very friendly..big shout out to them. hard workers.

Vegetarian options: lots of options for vegetarians!“

“I had not been her in over 25 years and they did not disappoint! We were there early for dinner before the theatre. Had a lovely table, everyone was very attentive. Our waiter let us know all the specials. He also had some lovely tales regarding our menu choices. Food was prompt and hot and DELICIOUS. Before we left we were already planning our next visit and what we would order.“

“I really only drink cold coffee drinks. I tried an amazing Cold Brew coffee with Vikram, their cold brew specialist, at Avatar Coffee Roasters and was absolutely blown away. The texture was unbelievably creamy. The best way I can describe the experience was like enjoying a coffee flavored pastry without the pastry (extra calories). Last time I buy a Starbucks cold coffee drink! I highly recommend the experience.“

“Excellent If only once in your life’s journey, place this on your list ❤️‍🔥💕💗‼️“

“We’re frequent patrons of Postino Wine Cafe on South Broadway, San Antonio, TX. Love the ambiance, food, wine & service. Last night we experienced them at their finest! Ray & Mark went above and beyond in making our daughter-in-laws 50th birthday celebration special. The 50th balloons, cake accessories, & gift card were unexpected & appreciated. This is a place to go for a special celebration! Chef Joseph prepared a variety of delicious boards & more. They truly give top notch attention to detail & service. Highly recommend!“

“We definitely will be back, many times. This was a great experience. Jean Claude and the owner Earnest - were fabulous and so friendly. You won’t find another spot with this kind of friendly staff AND excellent food. Thanks for a great night out.“

“Went to Cozy Pine for date night and we enjoyed it. Really feels like you are in a different place, inside a restaurant. Decor, cocktails and food were all great. Definitively worth stopping in.
Food is mostly “snacky” compared to Bacchus outside. We did not have a reservation and we’re still able to get seated, likely because we arrived early in the evening.“

“Absolutely love this place!“

“Main Street Wine Company in Huntington Beach is a must-visit for wine lovers! Their curated selection of wines, cozy atmosphere, and knowledgeable staff make it the perfect spot to unwind after a day at the beach. As a local realtor, I always recommend it to clients looking to explore the best of Huntington Beach living. It’s places like this that showcase the laid-back yet upscale vibe of our community. Thinking of making Huntington Beach your home? Let me help you find a place where you can enjoy gems like this every day!“

“Our group had a fantastic experience at Henry’s thanks to Amanda anf Tony. We hosted a private dinner for some of our top clients following the first day of a nearby conference, and everything exceeded our expectations. The food was exceptional, and the staff was friendly, professional, and attentive throughout the entire evening. All in all, it’s the perfect spot to host a private dinner — highly recommend!“

“Awesome staff and wine !!!!!❤️❤️❤️“

“The wine selection, cocktails, food, and atmosphere at this establishment are all great! Highly recommend! Definitely a new hotspot to enjoy the Huntington Beach area right next to the beach and lively downtown.“

“Great atmosphere, food, and drinks...and sometimes has live music too!“

“This place was surprisingly cool. They don't have a TON of options, which I found strange for a wine-forward place, but the options we got we enjoyed. Unfortunately, there was only one person working there who I guess is in charge of also making food (which I don't totally understand?) so service took forever. As a result, we were charged happy hour prices, which was nice.

We went here waiting for a table next door for pizza, so for that reason it's definitely worth checking out. They had a movie playing on one of the walls, which was cool. And the vibe itself is cool, the inside has a lot going on and a lot to look at. We sat outside, which wasn't the best as it's right next to a parking lot but certainly still a nice option for outdoor seating.

If you're coming to this shopping center to have dinner, I do think it's worth stopping in.“

“Great little shady spot for some adult quiet time.“

“I literally stumbled in to WIP or waiting for some service on my car. I feel fortunate to have found this perfect spot. Obviously more than a coffee joint - it’s smart, stylish and engagingly current. Populated by an intriguing, vibrant and smart crowd.“

“delicious korean pub food! with natural wine by the glass. soju cocktails. highly recommend the pork belly.

don’t let the interior fool you. parking can be tough with the kbbq spot next door but there’s residential parking nearby.“

“The food was delicious every bite of it 👍😄🥰“

“Glass of Cab, they have an excellent selection, and a charcuterie board, absolutely fantastic! The staff is super helpful. Did I mention they have beer too?!?!?? On tap! Self serve!!!! Great place“

“Great atmosphere by the pool. Well staffed and friendly team members. Menu has good food. You'll pay hotel bar prices but top notch convenience and food arrives relatively quickly. Can order food at the bar to go or eat seated with full service. Menu is very limited but there are adult and kid favorites. Restaurant is quite a distance from parking lot, and restaurant does not validate parking.“

“Ordered skirt steak, sea scallops and oysters and all were excellent!“

“I only sat here to enjoy food and drink I got elsewhere“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
If I could give more stars, I would! This place is everything — inclusive, welcoming, and filled with nothing but top-tier vibes. The service is absolutely top notch — every detail is handled with care and heart. Whether you’re attending a cozy gathering or a full-blown celebration, the energy here is immaculate. Truly the best events in town. A gem for the community and a must-experience for anyone who loves intentional, magical spaces. ✨“

“Hamilton was our server and he was very attentive. We very much enjoyed the crab cake, shrimp and crab stuffed mushrooms, the beet salad, the Filet Mignon, and the dessert samplers. Fabulous meal, beautiful restaurant. And even though it was a Sunday and very crowded, our food was prepared flawlessly and the service was excellent.“

“Great craft beer selections, great sandwiches, warm sunny patio.“

“Great service, amazing atmosphere and delicious food.“

“It was a great time for me and my hubby. Great date night. Karen the owner, was very hospitable and so talented. She teaches and gave me techniques to ‘correct’ my paintings. I’m a sweet wine drinker so the moscato was so yummy! We will be back for sure to do another!“

“Exelent servís the food is exelent“

“Alas, a local place with unique charm, expert staff and a creative menu. We will be back often.“

“The food was delicious every bite of it 👍😄🥰“

“This is my favorite restaurant! I loved it back when it was on Bristol, but I have been back to the new Red Hill location twice now and it is even more of a special dining experience. Massimo has come out to explain the history of the wine and food and the sources of his ingredients. He tells wonderful stories with a great sense of humor, and his daughter who helps serve is also very knowledgeable and delightful. I feel transported and hosted in a way I have never experienced in a restaurant. The food is amazing. The fresh handmade pasta melts in your mouth. We have eaten every dessert and they are all spectacular. Every wine and appetizer we have tried has been extraordinary. I couldn't recommend this place more.“

“Experience an unforgettable wine tasting with Josh, who is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about our selection. Enjoy a perfect pairing with a gourmet charcuterie board, where you can customize your own delightful assortment. Don’t miss out on our mouthwatering Italiano sandwich, a must-try for any food lover!“

“Great happy hour and good food. We went here while staying at the hotel for our Disney trip and it ended up being our groups rest spot after a long day. If you're going to get a specialty cocktail, the Smoky Sparrow was really smooth and the aromatics were wonderful. The server/bartender Zaira was really attentive and kind to our group with toddlers.“

“The girlfriend and I just moved here and checked this place out as it was close to home and had great reviews.

I had the smash burger and she had the chicken sandwich; both were delicious and the fact that they offer sweet potato fries is a plus. Extra points for the ranch, which was some of the best I’ve had and I never have ranch with anything.

Bartender didn’t have what I wanted but suggested an alternative and we both liked it.

The place is a vibe and definitely worth checking out.“
