    ​I have dined here for dinner a few times now, and one thing I truly appreciate is the consistency of their dishes. It's a reliable spot that always delivers on flavor and quality. ​Highlights: ​Shrimp Appetizer: A definite must-try! The shrimp are exceptionally moist, far from rubbery, and you can genuinely taste the wonderful texture. Coated in a sauce that is so delicious you will want to lick every ounce off the plate. ​Hangar Steak: This is my go-to order. It is consistently flavorful and cooked well every single time. ​Chipotle Chicken Pasta: My husband is generally not a pasta person, yet he genuinely enjoyed this dish. The flavor profile hits all the right notes. ​Poblano Soup: Warm, comforting, and packed with great flavor. ​Butter Cake: Do not miss this. Honestly, the butter cake is the primary reason I keep coming back--it is absolute perfection for dessert. ​Service ​The hospitality is attentive and welcoming, ensuring a smooth and pleasant dining experience from start to finish. ​Overall, this is a fantastic spot with standout dishes and dependable execution. Highly recommended!

    Food was wonderful! Drinks and service were perfect. Waitress and valet very polite and quick. Flavors are perfectly balanced. The appetizer yellow crudo was great, it can use a few more slices. The bar maybe needs more support as the drink took sometime to get. Overall great food and place I will be back . Place is clean, the staff moves in front of you as they are working. Many do not move to side like higher end places. But the appearance, appeal and kindness are there.

    We were already dressed up from an event we had to go to earlier in the day, so we figured, why not go out to dinner? So.. On a random Wednesday night, we ended up at Dapper, and it was great! I had the lamb, my husband had the chicken piccata, and we both really enjoyed our meals. Definitely recommend!

    Holllly cannnnoli.. I really don't want to rave about how good this spot is because I don't want it to pop off and make it harder for me to go.. but it is tooo good for me not to say anything.. I've gone here a couple of times for multiple occasions and holidays.. regardless of the occasion - service and food have been spectacular. The restaurant is offers ample seating and has a full service bar. The decor is modern and makes you feel like you walked into a very upscale location. I have tried multiple dishes here and my standouts are the following: Cajun shrimp, poke nachos, ribeyes and prime rib(if you're lucky). This is a hidden gem for Riverside and I cannot wait for our next visit!

    Been here a couple more times and I'll say it's been a better experience every time. They are friendly and quick I love their smoked old fashioned bourbon drink it's my go to. I enjoy the wedge salad while my son and friends enjoy their pasta, steak and sea bass plates. The setting is perfect can hear the music but can enjoy the conversation great ambiance for everyone

    Came for brunch and as usual had great service and enjoyed the aesthetic of the restaurant. Our server was friendly, on point, and we didn't have to ask for anything. This was the first time for brunch here and our cocktails were delicious as usual. We ordered the omelette and the steak and eggs. The omelet overall was good but needed an aioli or a dip to pair with it. This was similar to the steak and eggs, maybe a salsa or some time of accompaniment. Overall great vibes and good food, might try brunch one more time, but will always be back for dinner.

    We pulled up at 4:50pm for our 5pm dinner reservations. Surprise all the adjacent parking is now valet parking ($10). We were celebrating our 51st so I took advantage of the opportunity to feel more special. Newport Beach Special. I'm sorry I took my keys into the restaurant with me. Minimal wait before we were seated at a table for two in the intersection of the traffic lanes of seating and service, just off the corner of the bar. I had a chance to see almost all the plates that were brought out. All were beautiful and tempting. Adrian was our server and he took care of us like we were old friends. He asked of our occasion and I told him of our anniversary. We started with water, no ice (mine had ice) a sapphire Bombay martini with 3 bleu cheese stuffed olives. My wife had an appletini with Absolut vodka. Both tasty and booze forward. ;-). I had two, the second had 4 olives! We shared the crab cakes and although not as crispy on the crust as I would like, the surprisingly spicy crab was refreshing, the arugula was the perfect foil for the richness of the sauce. My bride decided on the blackened chicken with steamed rice and seasonal veggies and I had the fettuccine Alfredo with shrimp. Excellent. And a plus because it came to the table piping hot. I added a little Parmesan cheese and I proceeded to clean the bowl! Thank you to Melissa for the purse hook under the table hack. You got cool points for that one. We opted for no dessert and returned to the valet satisfied, satiated and ready to continue our celebration. Thank you all!

    One of the best dinners I have ever had. Very pricey what we ordered but worth every penny. It was Monday so hubs got their MONDAY ONLY ribeye. I got the Chilean seabass and it was the best seabass I have ever had in my life. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. The crispiness of it was perfection. The purple mashed potatoes were so unbelievably delicious. I'm craving them now too. The outside patio was gorgeous and the weather was perfect. The staff were attentive and happy. The drinks are unique, we got the banana whiskey. OMG. Forgot the other drink but highly recommend this restaurant. I'm definitely going back when I am here next Butter cake melts in your mouth Oh yes the ahi nachos were very yummy, love the uniqueness of adding cucumbers. Had a little kick. The chips were fresh and sooooo good

    Steak with wild mushrooms

    Idk if it's a requirement to be pretty and nice to work here because every one was ! Had a great time here with all of my sisters and mom , the staff was so professional sweet and helpful. Now the food was amazing, we all enjoyed our dishes we ordered a wide variety from steak/ fish/ chicken everything came out hot and fresh. The crudo yellow tail was * chefs kiss* so fresh and buttery. At the end of our meal we all left so satisfied & couldn't wait to comeback with our partners . They checked off all our boxes for yummy food! Great service and great ambiance .

    Filet and garlic mashed potatoes as well as New York Steak and Mac and cheese
    Michelle D.

    We dined here on a Saturday evening. I had the filet and mashed potatoes and my husband ordered the New York and mac and cheese and added bacon. I ordered my filet medium and it ended up coming out dry and more well done than medium. At some point towards the end of our dinner I reached over to take a bite of my husbands Mac and cheese and was disgusted at the sight of a DEAD BUG in the almost already all eaten Mac and cheese dish ‍ I was instantly disgusted. I let our waitress know and she gave a little apology and when she brought us the bill all they did was take $12.50 off of our almost $300 total! Not only were we only given this small discount BUT no manager or anyone came to apologize and offer us anything. This to me was horrible on this restaurants part, it's safe to say we will not be returning. The restaurant was also very loud and it was hard to even communicate or hear our not too friendly waitress. Do better Dapper Dine!

    Butter cake
    Tamara R.

    Not what I expected. And that's a good thing! Attended a dinner function for an association that I'm in. The name "Dapper and Dine" conjures for me old, stuffy, dark with men in Zoot suits scattered about. Wrong! I was pleasantly surprised to enter a space with lots of glass, modern and elegant. Some more private rooms for groups but they still have glass pane walls so you don't feel siloed off from the other parts of the restaurant. The only thing it had in common with my expectation is smooth jazz piping in. The staff was efficient! On point! Like we are on The Polar Express! They handled our group better than any restaurant event I can recall. Afterwards I had dessert at the bar, sans the group experience, and the staff was friendly, and equally efficient. Our group had 2 dinner options. Fettucine Alfredo and Chipolte chicken penne pasta with cream sauce. The fettuccine looked fantastic, big portion too. But I wanted the spicier chipotle. It was very satisfying. Also a large dish, a slight heat, not much. Good flavor with large chunks of chicken. I had to cut them in 1/2 to eat. The pasta was tender with a bit of chew, as it should be. I don't think it's made in house but the dish was very good still. The butter cake was also delicious. Comes with vanilla ice cream and blueberry/raspberry duo. Really nice way to end the night. I also got a slice of chocolate cake to take home to the kids. Haven't seen it or tasted it because I ordered to go. But the server said it's huge compared to the butter cake. And the butter cake was much larger than I expected. 2 people can eat it. I couldn't eat more than 1/2! I really like Dapper and Dine. Gonna have to bring the hubby here for date night. Grown, sexy, AND fresh and modern with good food.

    Honestly my new favorite place. I've already been here multiple times & it's amazing every single time. My favorite dish at the moment is their blackened chicken with garlic mashed potatoes instead of rice. It is SO good, I'm obsessed with it. I also really enjoyed their pork chop with the garlic mashed potatoes. For dessert, their butter cake is yummy. I liked it more than the chocolate cake I had from a previous visit. As for their drinks, beautiful presentation & they taste great. My cousin custom ordered my raspberry lemon drop and it was bomb. Like it might be my new favorite drink lol. The inside of this place is such a vibe, even more at night. Also love their outdoor seating, the entire restaurant is just so aesthetically pleasing. Just a fabulous new addition to the IE. Service is also always amazing. :)

    mocktails!
    Kristie T.

    Yum! Everything was well made and flavorful. The drinks are yummy but a bit expensive for being mocktails. My chicken piccata had a hair in it so they remade it (if you zoom in you can see the hair lol). They were super nice and apologized for their mistake. We had a cute table outside in the patio. It was so cute and I loved the green theme!

    Celebrated a birthday with the Butter Cake, Vanilla Ice Cream, topped with fresh fruit and whipped cream! It was delicious!

The tacos on the menu for the special was a carne asada taco, a shrimp taco, and a chicken taco. These tacos are on a rotating basis every week. The carne asada was more like shredded beef. Both that one and the chicken taco were good but nothing special. The shrimp one on the hand!!! Now that is one i'd write home about. it came with four shrimp pieces , and the taco shell was fried and perfectly crunchy. I would come back for that one any day! The service for us was interesting. Service was super nice but we weren't helped for a while. i think our seating placement might have been right in the middle of both the servers' territory so there might have been confusion on who was suppose to help us? We were literally in the very center of the half booths lol. Eventually the male server came by and apologied for the wait and was very very attentive to us for the remainder of the time:) alsooooo the taco at The State Redlands are slightly bigger than these so i beleive the Redlands ones are more filling.

It has a hot pink sign and has interior and exterior seating options. You can park in parking structures or side streets in order to walk towards this location. On a hot summer day, they were blasting the AC which was super appreciated! We came in to cool off and enjoy a beer, after reading their signs! Of course, we opted for a glazed donut, too. The guy at the front was nice and friendly! Super chill. We took out items and sat towards the side, under their large TV. He switched on the TV and ended up playing the World Cup game!! I had drank a nice and chilled Space Dust IPA from the tap and my partner had a Blue Moon. I was very delighted by their glazed donuts which were massive! For $6, it was bigger than our faces; I'm guessing x3 the size of a regular donut. I enjoyed it because it was sweet, doughy, and perfectly glazed. A twist of a donut shop, but for their variety of drinks, I don't mind it! Loved the experience. Thank you for having us!
