This year we got the usual great lineup but instead of the DIY style show in a parking lot, Professor Vic moved it to the Cathedral. Located right off Garey, The Cathedral is tough to miss. There's plenty of street parking on Center St and there's also a small parking lot across the street. This used to be a YMCA but it looks like an old church with dark wood flooring, high ceilings and stained glass windows. A very cool venue. How did it sound? Loud. Extremely loud. They also had a huge video board which gave each band a little extra hot sauce. There were a couple of bars in the back and you could also order food. It's air conditioned in there but between the heat (100+ outside at the time) and the amount of bodies inside, it was at least bearable. Mosh for Youth was great as always and while I loved the DIY ethos in the past this felt like a leap forward. The sound, look and venue made this feel big time. I hope future MFY shows take place here...until they maybe outgrow this place too, which would mean more scholarships for the kids. Highly recommended!

There's lots of parking and it's easy to find. We did a quick wine tasting and decided on Sauvignon Blanc bottle to drink while there. It was a hot day so it was nice to have a cold wine. They were very friendly and patient as we asked questions. We walked around and visited the various booths. We got some great pastries for later since we had a late lunch already schedule. We will be back to try all the food options.

It's a…read morehuge, sprawling old-school bar and grill tucked into Trabuco Canyon, with tons of outdoor space, live music, and of course motorcycles. The food, though, was pretty run-of-the-mill bar food for me. Burgers, sandwiches, fries, etc. it was fine, but nothing particularly memorable or worth making the trip for on its own. What stood out was how enormous the place is and how friendly it feels. There's a very relaxed, communal atmosphere, and despite the biker-bar reputation, I found everyone to be extremely welcoming. With the outdoor seating, live music, canyon setting, and sheer amount of space, it feels more like a local institution than a conventional restaurant. I'd come back for the atmosphere, a drink, and live music.

We started with the Focaccia de Recco, followed by the beet salad. I had the roast chicken carbonara, my husband hand the homemade sausage lasagna. For dessert, we will be having the Irishman. NOTE TO THE CHEF: I only wished that the chef would have crisped up the prosciutto instead of just throwing in the slice as is. Texture of food is everything. It would have elevated the dish. Four stars for this dish.

This place is one of them in my opinion. One thing going for Jojo's is it hosts some good acts, and live music is pretty scarce in Tustin. We went to see Pretzel Logic, a really terrific Steely Dan tribute band that never disappoints. The views of the stage are good even when seated in the back of the room. The lighting and sound are good, too. However, the food was just so so, Jojo. * The calamari appetizer was generously portioned, but we've had a lot better elsewhere. * The Ribeye steak I ordered was the fattiest piece of meat I've ever been served. I left half of it uneaten. I'm surprised the cook who prepared it had the gall to plate it. The menu is an abbreviated version of the full menu of 17th Street grill. So why not a two star rating? The service was very good in a challenging environment. Cheers!

Opened on time, with quick security screening. There was a merch section and restrooms (spotless) located in the lobby. We had general seating tickets, so we had the freedom to choose where we sat. And what choices there were! The seating is varied and allows for comfortable seating for everyone. Whether you're in a large group, want a cozy high top for two, a counter seat to chat bar style with others, or want up close and personal floor access, there's a spot for you. There's even balcony seating! The sound system was clear and well balanced. My friend mentioned he would've liked it a little louder. Indeed, it was a "comfortable" volume. Our waitress was quick and friendly. She was fair, in that she told us up front they charge for water (I think it was 6 bucks). She said sometimes customers get upset about that. Our drinks were good and the price was about what we'd expect at a venue. We didn't order food, but the plates traveling by us had appealing presentation and smelled delicious! My first time here, but I'll certainly jump at the chance to come back!

Unfortunately, they had no beers or seltzers on tap - so we ordered a Modelo and 805. The bartender was funny though - and had a great personality; turned our night right back around. I was feeling for a Tokyo Tea so we ordered just that, and might I say - even though they have nothing on tap, they pour HEAVY. After we closed out, he even went as far as asking if we were there before dinner or just chillin and we said before dinner. The bartender went on to recommend all kinds of different restaurants around the area. He made us feel welcomed and it was definitely a good time. Thanks for the hospitality!

The TWO times in recent times I visited there, the barkeep was like,"What can I get you?" But that was it! For the lack of a better term, I was a lonely customer. I am not ugly, and very friendly with a joke always on my lips. A couple years ago I went in when the/a band was there. I believe they are considered the "house band". Not bad but they really need to say hi to new customers and maybe even introduce the newbies to the known crowd and make them feel welcome... I mayyyy go back to see if there has been some customer relation changes when I come in after this review. Santa's 10th reindeer is named Olive.
