One of the best sandwiches i have ever had. I got a half sandwich and i am stuffed. Felt as if i ate a whole sandwich. Its was SUPER affordable. Everything ingredient fresh and yummy. They made it with a quickness i couldnt even walk around the store fast enough. Really great selection of healthier food and drink options. read more

The perfect spot for your picnic essentials. I stumbled on Irvine Ranch Market during today's Balboa Island Art Walk. We had worked up quite an appetite after exploring over a mile of local artists and were in the mood for fresh sammies. This market was filled with all your favorite snacks, sides, alcoholic bevies, plus a sandwich counter. I ordered the caprese sammie with added turkey. This sandwich was stacked thinly sliced turkey, tomato, mozzarella, and balsamic. There's a few indoor tables available, but I'd recommend soaking in the rays with a beachside picnic on the sand or nearby docks. read more

Tik Tok virality holds up. I have no clue why it's trendy on social media but it's a nice market! I tried the lemon cake and pizza, both were tasty though the pizza was a bit greasy. Wide variety of products but limited selection for meat and produce (which is fine). Lots of fresh foods and made to order sandwiches. Staff were pleasant, no complaints. read more

We love this market. We were thirsty and wanted to grab some drinks before walking in the neighborhood. But the "best fries" sign, we decided to grab some burger, pizza, soda and fries. Just for those battered french fries I would give all the stars this place deserves. Fresh, crispy on the outside and every bite was tasty. The market also carries fresh produce, pantry items, deli meat, bakery section and alcohols. They have few tables to enjoy your food but make sure to pay before dining. There are no restrooms inside the market and if you need to use one it is right outside the street (the public toilets which are well maintained). read more

Wonderful specialty market. All your produce is perfect and displayed beautifully. The meat and seafood cases are impressive. Just a great market although quite expensive. read more

Their food is great, though for some reason my combination taco plate came with mashed potatoes and gravy instead of refried beans. Still tasty. Bus have been since it was the day after thanksgiving. I have had it before and all was well. read more

Lots of options here. And fresh! A bit pricey but that's to be expected. Very convenient on Balboa Island.

Walked here to purchase a sandwich and soda. Fountain drinks are unavailable every time. Very disappointing.

Deliciousss!! Store is nicely organized but the best part is the man behind the counter making the sandwiches. Like Subway (the fast food chain) but 9x better. Bougie food, cheap prices. Pizza looks good as well ;) Thanks! read more

We recently rented a house on Balboa Island for a week, and became daily visitors of Irvine Ranch Market! With two small kiddos in tow, there's always something that you need, whether it's more milk, snacks, fruit, etc. This market is well stocked and the prices are great for being a small grocery store on the island. We even purchased locally caught shrimp to make shrimp scampi at home, and they were incredibly fresh and delicious. They also have great grab-and-go options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I loved their pre-made chicken salad. Their tiny homemade chocolate chip cookies in a cup at the register were amaze, we bought multiple cups full. They also have a great selection of local beers, wine, and liquor + all of the mixers that you could need. So grateful that this spot was right around the corner from our place. It made this mama's life a lot easier on vacay! My family always had full tummies and big smiles. I highly recommend this cute little market! read more

The best people there and fries are THE BEST!!!! I usually get the breakfast burrito because the hashbrowns are perfectly crispy.

It's difficult to have a grocery store in a section of a city, where space is limited and the number of customers can vary a lot depending on the season or day of the week. IRM has created the perfect balance of basics and gourmet items, needs and wants, necessities and treats. They've done so in a small space, creating an open concept and still having a great selection of anything a local or visitor might be looking for. I'm looking forward to visiting every time I make a day trip to the relaxed, sunny retreat of Balboa Island. read more

Daniel is hard working and nice! They make their food fresh. Never had a bad meal! See ya soon! read more

Cute local market with tons of high end snacks, drinks and sandwiches. Definitely a splurge. However, their sandwiches are very well priced and are huge. A great deal. read more

Irvine ranch market on balboa island has the nicest staff! And ordering sandwiches is a breeze and you get them in just a few minutes. Fantastic! We love this market. If you have guests, they have great wines, snacks, dips, ready made dinners, and fresh baked cookies and deserts. read more

I am downgrading my review. The last few weeks the food has not been as good. Ordered a BLT and they forgot to cook the bacon! Yuck! I contacted the store to let them know and never even received a response. I am super disappointed because I really liked this place. read more

1 star is not even what I want to add. Worst experience ever! I've been in the store many times and never been treated this way. Don't get me wrong the food they have is good but just the service I got today is unacceptable. The cashier there is and older man and was rude , never asked me if I wanted a bag and he just through the receipt at me. I've felt racial profile by this man. That's not how you treat customers. read more

This place is so dang quaint. It's like an old general storebut modernized. They have a little bit of everything, and it's so cute. The aisles are shrunk down versions of big grocery stores. Everything you could need on this tiny little island, just fewer options. Great ready made foods to go, a bakery case, produce. Pretty much the only option for groceries it seems and worth checking out when visiting Balboa island. read more

Good food, good price, great employees and very convenient! Nice selection of food and drinks! Pastries are amazing!

We were super excited for Irvine Ranch to open up on the island after Hersey's closed down. I heard such great things about the other location and I couldn't wait to try their deli. I ordered a simple turkey sandwich on French baguette with lettuce, tomatoes, onions and some pepperoncini. I get home and after eating about 1/4 of my sandwich I notice something black.. maybe an olive somehow got in my sandwich?? No.... a dead horse fly. Beyond disgusting. I don't like wasting my time complaining but I decided to walk back and let them know. The nice young cashier called the manager and obviously he had no customer service skills whatsoever. He didn't apologize but instead gave me attitude like I was inconveniencing his not-so-busy day. Well, needless to say I will not be back **UPDATE** Response to the owner... I have been living on the island for about 10 years and know there are flies in the alleyway. Every other restaurant off of Marine have those fly strips hanging filled with flies. I went to Irvine Ranch Market and came straight home. This particular fly was dead. In my sandwich. Unless there was a fly in my house (which would be impossible since apparently there aren't any flies on the island) that committed suicide and died and figured out a way to bury himself to the center of my sandwich... there's just no way.. let's be realistic here.. With that being said, redirecting the blame and not owning up to it says a lot about the owner as well. Store front may look clean (I sure hope so considering you guys just opened) but maybe check your lettuce because this fly looked like it had been dead for quite some time. Honestly, it wasn't that big of a deal until the attitude. I wasn't expecting your business partner to get on his hands and knees apologizing but I also wasn't expecting to get treated like that. read more

Love this little market, I've driven past it so many times and finally came in. They have so much to choose from, you would never know how big it was from the street. Lots of good finds that you won't find at a normal grocery store. read more

Everything from the deli is Delicious! Best coffee in town! Great convenience without gouging prices!

Completely different experience with food ordering as the last time I was here! Different crew, too- hardworking and attentive! It was crowded right at lunchtime but I walked right up and placed my order for The Godfather sub. Soon after, my order was up! Only holdup is the slow man checking people out. The girl who took my order ran over and helped checkout when she had a moment. The Godfather was fantastic! Bread not as soft as Gallos but definitely not hard and tough like Moulin. It was perfect. Freshly sliced Boar's Head A+. Just loved it. Ate half yesterday and the other half today for lunch and it was just as good as yesterday- not grossly soggy as I would have expected it to have been after a day with the bread sitting in a tasty herbed oil and vinegar mixture. It was awesome. Definitely a huge improvement. read more

We were in the area for a long weekend visiting and found this store has everything we needed. Very nice, friendly staff. If I were a local this would be my regular stop. Lots of beer, wine, spirits. They have fresh produce. We did not get anything at the deli but it all looked tasty. Will definitely come here again on our next visit. read more

They need better inventory & they need to stay open later (tat least til 8:00 or 9:00).

I've shopped at this store for 15 years. It's good quality, but you need to be careful. The meat and fish counter looks great, but sometimes the service there is poor --- I was there one time and it seemed like the three staff were all high on something because they made some inappropriate comments and forgot my request, requiring me to repeat myself a couple times. Also, the wine has informational labels showing high ratings for that winery, but the ratings are usually for a year that they are not selling, making it an issue of false-advertising. Check this for yourself and you will see what I'm talking about. Lastly, I bought house-made (?) Tapenade at this store several times over the years and twice there were pieces of olive pits in the mixture and I cracked my teeth (one time I needed a dental filling) on the broken pits --- so I won't buy tapenade at this store again.. --- I'm being specific, because I don't like leaving a mediocre review. Nevertheless, I think this store should step up their service a bit. read more

Every time I've visited they've been wonderful. Love the burgers there and the cheesecake assortment!

After Hershey's Market left Balboa Island after so many years, we were concerned about what might take place on the island. Enter Irvine Ranch Market... it's a perfect replacement for our beloved Hersheys and fits in as if it had been here for decades. read more

Love this market! It provides what you need and more in a pinch. The deli is great too for breakfast lunch or dinner

Planned ahead for a Sunday dinner at home looking forward to yummy cheese burgers af fries. Website says last order on Sunday is 7:00 store closes at 8:00pm.i arrive at 6:55 at sandwich counter. Everyone is focused on cleaning and preparing to CLOSE. Someone finally come from the rear and says "do you need help" I say yes and announce my order. She say grill and sandwiches close at 6,:00. As a local resident Not very happy with your poor website and inaccurate information for customers. Sad that we can't depend on your store / grill fresh sandwiches for our dinning pleasure read more

Really love this market and I'm super pleased 99% of the time. The turkey meatballs in the grab-and-go section were awfully chewy. They tasted like they were stuck together with glue and they were really dry. I had to toss them out in the trash. I won't be buying the turkey meatballs again. read more

This place is so great! My husband and I will get sandwiches or burgers and some cocktails in a can from here and go enjoy at the beach! Everything is surprisingly reasonably priced for being in Newport and a more touristy area. The staff are all super kind and they literally have all of your beach picnic needs! The fries are also 10/10 AMAZING read more

Cute little market with everything you need within walking distance. Anything from bread and milk to cupcakes

Such a great market!! In times like these (COVID19) I'm extremely grateful for a GEM of a store. When they first opened I would frequent it often for dinner ideas/supplies. Now I go to get my staples. Being able to walk to a NICE & clean store is so amazing and worth paying a little more on some items. But honestly, for the convenience and quality it is worth the extra by far!! I don't know the owners but I am grateful they took a chance and opened on BI! It's been an amazing addition! read more

This is the second location of the Irvine Ranch Market stores with the first one being in Costa Mesa. As the literal talk of the town for months the soft opening of this location today did not disappoint. This market has taken over the once historic Hershey's Market And has even added pictures of the old market and old Balboa all throughout the interior walls. They have really done an amazing job.... The energy was high, the deli was buzzing and all the customers were laughing and smiling from beginning to end. (I sat and ate my Sandwich Inside on one of their little tables) Considering this market is only 4000 ft.² you have to applaud them for making the most out of the available space. They have everything a market on Balboa Island should have: A rockn' deli, bakery, some produce, made to order salads, A meat selection, fresh cut fruit and much more. Bravo to the owners for living up to the hype we created. We are so happy you're finally here!! read more
