25 Best Steakhouses near Irvine

“Incredible flavors that are well balanced. Nothing was too sweet or salty. I'm amazed that I enjoyed every dish, and it surpassed my expectations despite reading mixed reviews. It's been a while since I had dishes at this caliber and quality. It's better than a good amount of restaurants in LA.

Everyone was extremely friendly and polite. Due to the holiday weekend and it being a Friday in a business area, it was fairly quiet. We decided to celebrate my birthday because the menu intrigued me. I liked the idea of modern cuisine influenced by SE Asian flavor and was curious to see how everything would be. We shared the scallop crudo, salmon crudo, sausage croquettes, Spanish octopus, wagyu hanger steak, broccoli & greens, and mixed mushrooms. Portion sizes are more generous than I thought too so we ended up taking ~1/3 of it home.

We shared the warm chocolate cake dessert which was rich with chocolate flavor, and they gave a pound cake berry & whipped cream dessert on the house for my birthday which was very kind. Seriously, kudos to Chef Jay Lacuesta and the team! I haven't found a nicer restaurant in OC that I want to go back to, and I've now found it! I'm so glad that I chose to celebrate my birthday there. Thank you!!

PS: park at the Centerpoint parking garage and get your ticket validated. They also have valet if you prefer, just pull right up to front of the restaurant.“

“Our annual anniversary dinner never disappoints. The food is always good and hot. This time I had the ribeye with light Cajun seasoning and it was one of the best steaks I've ever had there. They really do make sure you are fully happy with the way Your steak is cooked. They aim to please. Our server Ben was amazing and the manager Bill made sure we were satisfied with everything. From the wedge salad, creamed spinach,garlic mashed, baked potato, steaks and our desserts, we were 100% satisfied. Looking forward to our next celebration 👍🏼“

“Really enjoyed our dinner here. The tableside grilling service made the whole experience so much more relaxing—we could just enjoy the food and conversation without worrying about cooking the meat.

The Beef Combo L and pork belly were both excellent. The meat quality was great, and everything was cooked perfectly by the staff. Friendly service, comfortable atmosphere, and a place I’d happily come back to. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a great Korean BBQ spot in Irvine.“

“Excellent food. Great service! Loved it!“

“Excellent variety with fresh tastes and reasonable portions. Seafood (seared scallops and grilled shrimp) was delightful. Flatbreads were really flat, but very tasty. Appreciated the variety of light dessert offerings. Great place to go before the Segerstrom theater.“

“Awesome food :) I would definitely recommend“

“Shout out to the entire team. Xavier did a stellar job as our host: attentive, responsive, fast, and very friendly. My whole family felt welcomed.
From making a reservation to getting seated and the actual dinner my experience was great. I will definitely return.“

“Whatta wonderful treat to be at this fabulous place! Such great classic dishes that you don’t see anymore on menus like King crab legs & all the different types of steaks. The lights are low & the service is impeccable. A gem in the coastal cities of the OC.❤️“

“This is the best place to get a prime rib always fresh and this restaurant is open every day �“

“Attended a Tasting featuring Chandon. Little early so stopped at bar and enjoyed a perfectly executed Old Fashioned.The dishes served were Watermelon Salad which was refreshing. Lobster which stole the show which is saying a lot because the next dish was their Blue Cheese crusted Filet Mignon. With sides of Broccoli and a Potato dish. The Filet was as always amazing and perfectly prepared. Then dessert,not my cup of tea. A very sweet slice of cake ,me not being a sweets fan . Not the best judge. The pairing done by Melchor were spot on. He himself was a great MC. Very informative with each course explaining both food and champagne and the components of each. Have been to multiple events both Anaheim and Irvine locally and across US . This was one of favorites.“

“Great food and service. Thanks for hosting my 23rd!“

“Food was fantastic! Had the Miso Glazed Chilean Sea Bass and it was amazing. The lobster bisque was very good too!! Service was also great.“

“Great place. Excellent service and food was great!“

“The food was excellent - I had a fillet mignon and my companion had the halibut. Our server was attentive, but not overly so. We sat on the patio and it was pretty loud and boisterous. I will request the dining room for our next experience at the Bungalow. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant - thank you!“

“On the expensive side, but everything was delicious!“

“Such a great dinner celebrating my dad’s 92nd birthday. Amazing food and wine. Our server Georgina was absolutely amazing! Thank you for taking such good care of us!“

“Our server, Avante, was very good. Our several course meal came out at a very good pace. Nothing coming to table too soon. He also checked up on us several times. He had my wife cut into her steak when he brought it to the table to insure it was cooked to her desire. As it was our anniversary, he offered us a special desert on the house. Another plus is that this restaurant is very quiet allowing us to have a conversation.“

“First: fix the lighting in the parking lot. Most of the lighting was not working.
The food was good. Our server was very polite but they were very understaffed.
The couple in the booth next to us waited 20 minutes for their credit card to be returned.
Service was Extremely... Extremely Slow.
The main issue is the dark parking lot. I would not have felt safe unless I was escorted to my car.“
