    Gravel road - entrance has foreign objects from the construction that could damage your vehicle

    I used to love this place but their product line up has definitely changed. Also the front desk is always unprofessional - it really dims the light of the hardworking budtenders inside . I got a flat at this location (cause for as long as I can remember they haven't paved their gravel road leading to their entrance and also don't care to remove any big foreign objects- when I told the front desk they laughed and the guard said right in front of me "nah that's not true" - okay buddy. OC3, Costa Mesa or even Stanton location is much better and up to par. On top of that you don't have to worry about a shitty road ruining your car Management should have a word about customer service to the front desk

    Blem flower Decibel tray

    Best dispensary in SA no doubt best prices awesome deals and great selection of top tier flower concentrates and edibles to choose from!! The service is phenomenal friendly and knowledgeable budtenders that are always happy to help and answer any questions. Been a patient since opening and I haven't been to any other dispo since unless it's another catalyst! I came in for the Blem deal and Cecilia was more than helpful recommended some great edibles and infused drink to pair well with the smoke! 10/10 recommend!!

    Top Shelf Tuesday's for that
    Ashley A.

    Wow! Such an incredible selection and knowledgeable staff. Seriously everything about this place is awesome. Their menu is huge and it's honestly the best value I've seen in Orange County. Most of all, my favorite thing about this place is their staff. So kind and welcoming! They really help you find what you're looking for, and ask you questions to match you with the right product with the budget that you have. Shout out to Desiree and Val for being so sweet and genuine during my visit there. They have ongoing daily specials which is GREAT and they typically host brand demo days there as an added bonus. Tuesdays my favorite day because all the top shelf flower is discounted! My new fave dispensary! Thank you so much Catalyst Santa Ana!

    Been coming here since I turned 18. Thank you to everyone who has helped me through life haha. Thank you Phil for the great selection you got me today. If you like great deals, come here, or to your local Catalyst dispensary.

    If you don't want to be over charged speak up and ask for deals because clearly Cecilia R thinks 20% off is enough info.

    I walked in on the fourth and asked my clerk you got any specials for the Fourth and just told me. No only 20% off and my brother walked out with a deal on jetty and paid only 180$ while I was told nothing and had to pay 280$. I will never come back to this location. you have one of the worst bud tenders trained for the season other than the person who helped my brother. Honestly if you wanna shop here just straight up ask the tender if they know what their talking about. Or they will over charge you and not even give you a chance to exchange them. 0/10. So done with this place had not come back in forever and this is what I get? Just go Herban Kulture. At least they try to give you the bang your buck.

    You can see them off the 55 Freeway, best exit is Dyer or coming in off Pullman from Warner... So I've been following this new brand of infused pre-rolls on Instagram for some time called Sluggers. They're supposed to be a quality alternative to Jeeters which people claim are made of trim. I already love them so wanted to give Sluggers a try, and Catalyst is the first store in OC to carry them after their recent Emerald Cup Release. There were a couple brands showcasing their products on a Friday afternoon at 4:20pm when I popped in by no coincidence. Celebrating the wife's birthday tonight so didn't mind doing some extra shopping while I was here. After swiping my California DL, I was waved in the buzzer door and down a clean white hallway with black and blue CATALYST decals on the paint. I walked up to a friendly looking ninja girl named Vanessa who was my budtender for the evening. She showed me the handful of flavors of Sluggers, and I decided on the Runtz that were a hybrid blend. Next time I'm going for the ROSE. I also wanted to grab a vape while I was here and I've really been enjoying the potency of the hits of my friends Plug N Play, almost dab worthy hit from a pen. Catalyst had them on a deal since the 18th, buy one cart, receive a 2nd cart for a buck! Great deal so I opted for a 20 dollar metallic green battery too. I was really impressed with how they isolated the carts and vapes on the right side of the shop. After roaming around a bit more, I was stoked at the plethora of drinks and elixirs they offer at Catalyst. Many full glass front fridges packed to the brim with cold delights. Overall my first stop into Catalyst in over 6 months was a very good one and if I enjoy these Sluggers as much as I expect, I'll be back soon for more. Thanks Vanessa and team for a great experience.

    Follow them on Instagram.

    Honestly, I haven't been to a cannabis dispensary where the receptionist wasn't nice, or the budtenders weren't super helpful.

    I stumbled upon Irvine Smoke Shop while looking for a quick stop off the 55 freeway, and I'm so…read moreglad I did. The location couldn't be more convenient -- literally a minute from the exit with plenty of easy parking. From the moment you walk in, you can tell this place is different from your typical smoke shop. It's spotless, well-lit, and everything is neatly organized and easy to find. No clutter, no confusion -- just a clean setup that actually makes browsing enjoyable. The selection here is top-tier. They've got everything -- from high-end glass pieces and vapes to hookahs, cigars, and every accessory you can think of. You can tell they care about quality and variety. Whether you're new to it all or you know exactly what you're looking for, this shop has it. Prices are fair, and there's a surprising range -- from affordable everyday options to premium gear that's worth checking out. But what really makes this place stand out is JOE. He's the kind of employee who makes you want to come back. Super friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about helping you find what fits you. He doesn't rush you, doesn't upsell, and actually takes time to explain the products and give honest recommendations. You can tell he knows his stuff and enjoys what he does. It's rare to find service like that anywhere these days -- let alone at a smoke shop. Thanks to Joe, this is officially my go-to spot in Irvine. If you stop by, ask for him -- you'll see exactly why everyone raves about the service here. JOE literally took extra steps to make sure they had items I wanted in stock, ordered more, and confirmed before I even paid. I wanted bulk so I then asked if I could get a bulk discount.. like aALOT, he said he'll ask, and bro literally came out and grabbed me to tell me what they could do. It wasn't a crazy discount, but with their margins, I'm sure it was a lot. For that he is the BOMB!!

    I stopped in yesterday to look at their glass bongs, what a clean, organized, and well managed…read moreshop! The gentleman who helped me was very calm and polite, showed me several items that met my specifications and price range, and made it easy to buy! He also gets extra praise for taping the bowl to the downspout to prevent any accidental loss or damage on the drive home. Irvine Smoke Shop is now my go-to, especially since it is right next to the I-5. I will happily drive over there instead of settling for what I have closer to me in Westminster!
