Our Place - Band - New American Near Me - Lake Forest, California

Not a fan of this place, I went inside with my wife she was the only woman in the place apart from the waitress. On the side of the building, customers were smoking pot and doing other stuff inside was full of drunken idiots the service was horrible. We waited 45 minutes for the waitress to come to the table and the food was not so good. It's a very small place and they had a band playing that thought they were playing in an arena. They played so loud Drunken man try to pull my wife out of her chair, forcing her to dance. When I stood up and got in his face. My wife did the right thing, and escorted me out of there before I did something stupid. You will not see us again in this establishment read more

I'm new to this area and happened to stop by, this has become one of my favorite places to grab a bite (good food) and great drinks, bartenders are just awesome, specially the blond one! read more

Wild to pull up your fav local haunt on Yelp and see yourself doing karaoke as the featured pic. lol. Anyway, as you may have guessed from my preamble, I'm a regular at Our Place. My husband and I love to sing karaoke and they have it three nights a week with Alex on Sundays and Mondays, and John on Wednesdays. Sound is great and the karaoke hosts are awesome. The owner, Cliff, is a super cool and hard-working dude. It's super common to see him making drinks and serving food right alongside the rest of his stellar staff. He's also constantly thinking of ways to innovate the menu and their entertainment offerings. In a given week you can find karaoke, stand up comedy, live bands, trivia, drag queen bingo, etc. Literally something for everyone. Speaking of the menu, the food here is sooo good. Their standard bar food is great, but they also take it to the next level with things like "smoked chicken taquitos which are totally homemade and hand rolled in house and birria flatbread. If you make it in on a weekend morning don't miss their breakfast. Had a Cuban Eggs Benedict last week that really hit the spot. I also tend to hit this place to watch football on Sundays (go Niners!) Their football food specials are tasty and easy on the pocketbook and Cliff is still nice to me even though he's a Bears fan. :) read more

I see the mixed reviews for this location. I've been here before when it was a different name, with a different owner, different menu and different decor. I was especially glad to see the interior design remodel - the current restaurant layout is open, clean and modern looking, and easy to see spots to choose to be seated at when you open. There are windows and natural light also here. The staff here are professional and curt - and are fast, which is always appreciated. You'll have a slightly faster time ordering beer or wine. Service is great, even if it's not always with a smile. The food is really impressive for a local neighborhood bar. They have an incredible amount of favorites here, including ceviche, burgers, tacos, and fish and chips. No one cuisine is featured, rather instead a mix of bar food from around the world. There is live music on some nights, and a jukebox available also. Parking is free. read more

Our Place - Bar band playing country. - New American Near Me - Lake Forest, California

Love this local bar. We come here every other week to enjoy the drink and service. Every bartender is great here especially Crystal. She always brings good vibes and remembers our drinks every time we step inside the bar. read more

We came here on a whim, late night after a concert at five point to charge my car. They were very accommodating and even whipped up some nachos for us. read more

Welcoming neighborhood bar with generous drinks and great food! The whole menu is really good and all the dishes taste homemade. The burger and the stroganoff are top notch and are my current faves, although on Fridays you also can't go wrong with the fish and chips - the fish is moist and delicious and not at all fishy. All the servers are super sweet and friendly, even when it's really busy, and the owner brings in great live music and other fun events. Highly recommend! read more

Our Place - Great live music on a Friday night! - New American Near Me - Lake Forest, California

Just got home from Sugarmill Slim, compelled to write a review of the band and Our Place. In a word...PHENOMENAL!!! Liv, the waitress is just the best. She remembers our name and pours the best drinks. She introduced us to the owner, Clifford, and we just had to compliment him on his choice of bands, not just tonight, but regularly he has unbelievable live music. But tonight was special! Never having heard of Sugarmill Slim we went there to check it out and were blown away. Blues and blues rock, with outstanding vocals and harmonica like you've never heard it before. They are going to be back at Our Place on February 24th (just prior to beginning their European tour). Don't miss it! read more

I went here to kill time with my brother. The Bartender was super busy and understaff. Naturally she appeared agitated, anxious, and bitchy. She kept taking shots and slammed everything she got her hands on including beers and drinks. The drinks she made were very bad and were not worth the money. I could tell she was trying her best to stay composed but gave up after a short while. The place is subpar. The food was okay. To those who want to go here; I suggest you pay cash. read more

Good for Trivia night on Thursdays with WTF Trivia. They have a burger special that night with a delicious value-oriented cheese burger

Came in again today, for Sunday football! Got my favorite bartender, the lovely Brandi ! Learned the incredible chefs name is Bryan, they have a crazy affordable football menu & Sunday Brunch & again, I can't stress enough, how fantastic the food is! Just seriously WOW!! Everyone was having such a great time, hanging out together at this bar! My new favorite hangout 100%! Highly recommend!! read more

I've been to a few bars in my life, but this bar has been nothing but good vibes. I finally understand why you go to your local bar to meet your fellow people, and as someone from irvine to drive over here. It's been one of the most amazing time i spent in any establishment. Shoutout to Clifford! read more

Came here for a casual fun vibe and that's exactly what I got. Service was friendly and fast, food was surprisingly diverse and delicious, and the bingo game was lively and entertaining. read more

Great food, even better drinks. Overall vibe is welcoming and friendly. 10/10 My girl and I checked this place out on a whim, were not disappointed in the slightest. Highly recommend the "Green Tea Shooter." This is a sneaky little one, so pace yourself. Karaoke welcomes all. Great or horrendous singers are encouraged to pick their favorite songs to sing along with the supportive crowds. read more

This place is small and friendly. The service is usually pretty good, the food is always great, and the entertainment is... entertaining! Check the calendar to find out what's going on any day of the week. The fun varies from classic rock, country, or punk bands to karaoke, trivia, or something sports related. Cliff (owner), Bryce (bartender), and Liv (waitress) make a great team for a night out any time. read more

My sense is the ownership of this place has changed hands. Read on: The past couple of times have been a disappointment. Tonight was the final straw. We ordered the Calamari as an appetizer ($13.95) to be followed up by fish taco combo entrees. The server delivered the entrees within about a minute or so of the Calamari, apologized, and told us the kitchen just put them both out. Nope. We saw the Calamari sitting on the hot plate station for a about 10 minutes while various staff passed it right by. It was cold when it finally hit the table, and we didn't bother with it. It would have been piping hot if, as our server claimed, the chef actually put it and the entrees out at the same time. In any event, serving entrees on top of an "appetizer" is never a good move. You are doing it wrong when this happens. The entrees were so-so. The final insult when our server asked us if we wanted to box up to go the Calamari that sat virtually untouched despite us having previously informed her it was served cold. We closed out and moved on as fast as we could to make the most of what was left of our night. This place cries out for effective management. read more

Terrible TERRIBLE SERVICE the waitress/ Bartender couldn't get it together! Would forget our drinks Or just would forget to bring them all together . She treated the cook in a very demeaning manner She seem to only give good service to the people that she knew. she kept making excuses on how she's short staffed, and that it's not her fault ,regardless, she was terrible ! since they've changed owners this place has gone down. Their bathrooms smell like sewers. Don't waste your time at this place. Most of the reviews are from people that go there. The place is disgusting. Reviews are given for a reason. Crappy service is not nit picking . Letting others know the place is dirty is also not not picking...Just Telling it like it is. read more

I can't say enough about Our Place. It has become a regular place to hang out, have good food, good drinks and a good time. The ambiance is low key and every employee is friendly and helpful. They get busy on days where they have special events so you need to get there early. They have 5 TVs where you can enjoy sports, karaoke or just whatever is going on at the time. They have trivia night, bingo, Cornhole competitions, karaoke and holiday parties. One thing I have to mention is the FOOD!! For a small and unassuming bar you wouldn't expect the food to be above average but you'd be wrong. We've tried the stroganoff, sliders, tacos, all kinds of sides and salads. The sweet potato fries are something special. But the burgers....the burgers are always big, juicy and cooked perfectly. They have special menu items all the time as well as holiday drinks and shots. The owner Cliff is a really friendly guy who always makes sure things are running smoothly and everyone is having a good time and Brandy is the perfect balance of work hard/play hard! We went for a Fat Tuesday/Mardi Gras celebration, which is hard to find in Orange County and they had a shrimp boil. We've also been for St Patty's day and their menu was delicious. We've been during the Halloween and Christmas seasons and they always have seasonal shots that are tasty & fun to drink. For what you get, the prices are great!! I almost don't want to leave this review so you all don't come and crowd our spot but it's really worth a visit. If you are in the Lake Forest area and you don't drop in for a drink and meal, you're missing out! Very highly recommended!! read more

Good food and great ownership! Cliff the owner is a stand up guy and he is a foodie that takes pride in serving great food! Wishing you the best Cliff! Cheers read more

Went with friends to watch live band, everything was fantastic! People were friendly and impromptu dancing happened

oh, this is a great place to go. The food is amazing. Their beef sandwiches are awesome. Just like being back home in Chicago. The service is awesome. They're really on top of things there the entertainment the weekend they have bands. It's just a fun place to go and you might see a celebrity there from a TV show but I'm not gonna say anymore. Check it out for yourself. I give this place an 8.7. read more

I've been coming here for years. Solid drinks, good prices , but kids And dogs ?! It's a bar - there's not supposed to be children and pets here. Why would you do that ? It's a bar, not a park. Disappointed Our Place read more

I love the food and the staff. I can spend hours chatting with Heather and Crystal as well as the other patrons. Our Place has regulars for a reason. I've been to places where they treat visitors like crap, Our Place is not that type of place. There will always be people who have little to nothing nice to say. I don't give their reviews any credit because they are busy finding fault in every situation. Quest Dip with bacon on top is amazing (I requested the bacon). We also enjoy the sliders and it's the best place to get a bottle of beer in this economy. While I try to minimize my carbs, I have to say the pretzel with quest dip is a delicious cheat meal. read more

Quintessential neighborhood bar, eatery & live music spot. We love this place. Non-pretentious, great people & really good drinks & entertainment. read more

We have gone to our place off and on or years, through covI'd we tried to Support as we could as with other local spots. The place got a a new owner a while back and has really done well with the place. Entertainment is great and such a variety. The food is amazing better than ever and the prices are beyond fair. We go to other spots and get the check and I almost fall Over. Service has been great as well seeing Crystal and Kat mostly.really nice to go somewhere and get great service and food at a fair price So hard to find these days read more

Our Place - Cheeseburger loaded with extra toppings. Burger Thursday deal - New American Near Me - Lake Forest, California

Great place to hang on a weekend. Summer they have bands outside. Both the food and drinks are good and not overpriced!!

I have no idea what has happening here. Food quality has changed and service has gotten slower. I squeezed the grease out of the potato skins. Well as much as I could. Ordered a second drink never received it but yet it was on my bill. Their op beef dip is still great. Will only do carry out when I'm craving the beef dip. Can we say Bar Rescue is needed! From storage wars to bar rescue! Hahaha read more

Not only is the live music great here, but warm vibes with outstandingly amazing food! I especially love the Seared Scallops, which is incredibly delicious with a creamy sauce with bacon & mushroom. Not your typical "bar" food! read more

I love this place. One of my favorite persons is LeeAnn. She always has a smile on her face and happy to see you. There are several employees who are good but not friendly and have a tendency to have their backs to you when tending bar but LeeAnn is always on point. So is Crystal. She also is very enjoyable and friendly with a great smile. read more

My favorite place to go. I have my own restaurant and club on main street in Huntington Beach and this is my favorite place to go hang out as a patron. I love being there with Clifford and the rest of the staff and guest! I love coming here and every time I'm there the whole place feels like one big family! I'm also grew up in Iowa and being at Our Place reminds me of being at one many bars that I grew up around there. It's just a great vibe and atmosphere overall. I came out during the Super Bowl and the ribs were hands down the best ribs that I'd ever had in California. During there shrimp boil the food and energy in the room was phenomenal. Like I said I have my own place in Huntington Beach and I can go pretty much anywhere and everybody knows who I am down there, but a lot of those places their only nice to me because of who I am However Our Place is my favorite place of them all and the only place that I go when I'm not working. It's the place where I can go and just be another Joe and meet amazing genuine authentic people and feel like I'm back home in Iowa and I find that incredibly valuable especially because I'm constantly surrounded by people who want something for me. The feeling I get when I go in there is priceless! Much love Clifford & Brandy! Keep doing your thing! read more

I popped in here for lunch and ordered the Italian sandwich special. Sandwich is 10 bucks and you can add a side of fries for an additional four dollars. I wasn't hungry so I only went for the sandwich and it was very tasty. This seems like a local bar and lunch hangout spot. The service was very friendly, and I'd come back again to visit Our Place. read more

Awesome service and great people!! Come down and see the people. They are the best. Love it!

Fun karaoke! We had great service in a fun atmosphere. Tasty food and drinks at a reasonable price. Our waitress Crystal was great!

Just came here to have a drink. Met the owner and Crystal the bartender. She was an absolute delight. Great food, not your ordinary bar food, it was amazing. The people were friendly and an overall welcoming vide. This is my go to place from now on read more
