The chicken kebob, filet mignon kebob, large shrimp, rice, vegetables, hummus, and bread were all flavorful and cooked really well. The portion was huge and easily fed four adults. The star of the show, though, was definitely the Fish and Chips. The fish was fresh, juicy, and perfectly cooked with a crispy golden coating. The fries were also amazing, golden, crispy, and well seasoned. This was easily one of the best fish and chips dishes I've had in a while.

Was debating what to have for lunch around the area and saw that this place had great reviews so…read moredecided to try it. Wish we had tried the other place we were thinking about eating at instead. We ordered fish and chips x2, a battered shrimp tacos, a mahi mahi plate, meze combo platter, and calamari. We were all mind blown that the fish from the fish and chips had no flavor. Didn't taste like fish or the ocean... or anything. The fries that were seasoned also shockingly had no flavor. How does a place mess up fried food?? The shrimp taco, mahi mahi plate and calamari is what got this plate an extra star. The amount of shrimp in their $5.50 taco was sad. They cut up what looked like two medium sized shrimp into 1 cm pieces and stuck it in. The taco was mostly tortilla and cheese! The mahi mahi pieces were strangely small and cut up to the size of fish sticks... At least the calamari had some flavor. Definitely won't try this place again and would rather go another place to get seafood. Can't comment on the service or ambiance since the food was taken out.

Came here on Sunday around 1230-1pm and finally got to try this place. It is in the Tustin district…read moreso parking sucks because it's always packed especially on weekend. The restaurant is clean but small and not a lot of places to sit. The service was good. The fountain soda machine was broken at the time but I bought canned drinks and since the Coke cans were damaged they hooked it up with an extra can of soda so I'll say 10/10 service. The food was pretty good and the portion size isn't that bad. We got two lobster rolls one with everything in and the other plain, two crab rolls one with everything and one plain,one shrimp roll, and crab pasta. The plain ones for my daughter because she doesn't like sauce and likes everything plain. I love lobster and crab rolls so both 10/10. The shrimp roll 10/10 as well. The crab pasta was 12/10 and it was good. My daughter the picky one even liked it. The prices are not cheap but it okay and seems like the standard market price. All in all would eat there again.

The fries were actually really good, crispy and flavorful, although they were a little heavy on the salt. The chicken had a nice crispy texture, but unfortunately, it had little to no seasoning and wasn't as flavorful as I was expecting. Thankfully, the seasoned fries helped balance it out a bit. Overall, it was a decent quick bite while we waited, but I definitely wish the chicken had more flavor.

It was a little tricky for my friends who sat at the same table because when they each scanned the QR code to order, it ended up putting them all together and any edits made actually affected the other people's orders. I was not involved in that thankfully as I used a different QR code at the tables we all sat at. From order to receiving our meal, everything was delicious, don't be like me and not realize how big those pan fried bao are... I ended up having so much left over to take back and share with other friends I was meeting up with that evening. The bao were absolutely delicious! Stuffed to the brim of filling and perfectly toasted on the bottom. The mapo tofu was so comforting as it's a dish I typically make at home. The cheese corn was so cheesy, but didn't have as much corn as I thought, but none the less also amazing! The star was the braised pork belly. Absolutely loved it and could easily eat those all the time. Definitely worth checking out

I need to start with the sourdough bread. It's out of this world. It's crisp and soft without breaking your teeth. The sauces and ingredients complement each other so well (and they don't skimp on them). I got a 6" Turkey & Salami, which I couldn't finish due to the fact that they are very, very generous with the ingredients. The mac and cheese was delicious. And did I mention the sourdough bread? The ambience is perfect, the place I want to be all summer with plenty of seating and cool air conditioning for hot days in Irvine. If you were thinking about it, just do it. Absolutely worth it! I had a pleasure meeting and speaking with Carson, the owner here. We will be back!

The sourdough is baked fresh daily, and you can definitely tell. It has the perfect crispy crust while still being soft on the inside. We tried the Turkey Pesto, French Dip, and BBQ Brisket, and all three were really good. The sandwiches were generously filled with fresh ingredients, so every bite had a good balance of meat, veggies, and flavor. The French Dip was especially satisfying with the au jus. Our favorite was the BBQ Brisket. The salads were huge and loaded with toppings instead of just being a bowl of lettuce. They also have soup bread bowls and flatbreads, so there's plenty to choose from if you're not in the mood for a sandwich. Overall, it's a great spot for a quick lunch with fresh ingredients and generous portions. They also do catering so definitely recommend looking into that. We will definitely be back to try more of the menu!

Filet Mignon, Mushrooms, roasted garlic, tossed in house made alfredo sauce finished with parmigiano reggiano. I could devour this in my sleep. There is no way you won't find something you like here. They have preset pastas to choose from or you can create your own bowl. If you don't like pasta, they also have salads and sandwiches. Its clean indoors but seating is limited. There are plenty of tables outside with shade that are shared with the other businesses in the plaza. Not much to say about service since you order at a kiosk. You can watch them make your pasta in the cheese wheel while you wait. If you're craving pasta but don't want to break the bank at a fancy Italian restaurant, this is the place to go.
