First time here my homegirl & I were in the area and wanted to have a drink. I had the flight of Mimosas they were delicious. The bartenders were great and the vibe was outstanding they were playing old house music from.the 90s that brought back good memories. I definitely recommend! I'm returning eventually since I live in the IE

It is hard to believe there is a bar in food court... liver the special virgin version of drink while my husband tried old fashion...weekend evening, there are not many people... I hope this place stays open but not popular

Love the warm, friendly service. Their drinks are also very stiff. I highly recommend this joint.

Cat V, I hope you see this. You're not a critic and your review is trash. Go work in a mid-high end bar for a year and come back with a decent perspective.Going here later tonight and have heard nothing but good things. Will absolutely post a proper review of how amazing it is.

They are closed on Sunday's so be aware that the hours are wrong. We drove 45 minutes, don’t make our mistake.

The bartender: "Do you like your drink?"Me: "It's very light, like drinking fruit juice."The bartender: "So you like your cocktails stronger?"Me: "Who wouldn't like their cocktail to taste like fruit juice?"Instead of pouring me a proper cocktail, the bartender walks away. Why bother asking me if you're not willing to make it right?---Martiny de pina y mango: It's like drinking Ceres Mango Juice with a splash of martini. Unfortunately, the bartender didn't mix it well and all the alcohol is hiding beneath the mango juice. It's like playing a game of hide and seek with your drink, but instead of finding Waldo, you find an overly sweetened 0.5oz of strong alcohol lurking at the bottom. Yuck! And don't get me started on those cheap dried citrus pieces that look like potpourri floating on top. They have zero function and zero fragrance, yet every cheap cocktail place seems to use them. Maybe it's time to invest in some real fruit, people.--- Spicy Mule: It comes in a tiny bronze cup, probably 0.5 oz alcohol inside. --- As for the "Mezcal Old Fashioned," it's a complete joke. The bartender pours everything into a shaker with a scoop of mini ice cubes and shakes it for nearly 30 seconds before pouring a diluted liquid over a giant ice block. Who shakes a Mezcal Old Fashioned like that? I've never seen a bartender shake a Mezcal Old Fashioned like a maraca before. It's meant to be stirred a few times and then poured over a big ice cube, but this guy cheated. The drink has less than 1 oz of liquor, and the rest is just water.---And finally, the "Lychee" is the most expensive fruit juice I've ever paid for. Is there even any alcohol inside? Maybe just a measly 0.2oz? It's hard to tell.The environment is like company canteen that's open to the public in the after company hours. It's literally surrounded by offices.
I love this place...12 different restaurants soround the Drink Bar. You can actually eat at the bar...Jessie was great as the bartender.

???I give this place 1 star because the drinks are really good. My one star is because although we like this small bar in Tustin, it happened that we got extra charged...yes, you read it well. My husband got a cocktail ? it was 14 dollars, and he left a tip too, and...oh surprise, he got a 25 charge on his credit card. Yes, he checked his bank account and was charged 25 instead of 17... you guys, this is not ok! Many of us trust in servers and bartenders, and there is no reason for this type of thing. If you go there, be careful and DON'T FORGET TO CHECK LATER YOUR BANK ACCOUNT because they will try to CHARGE YOU MORE THAN YOUR TOTAL!!!! ????

This place is such a hidden gem in Irvine/Tustin area. It's right inside the Mess Hall and if you come a little earlier during midweek it's not too busy. There are a bunch of food places in the Mess Hall so you can eat food and grab a drink. We asked our bartender if she could make us a drink. All the drinks looked great and our bartender was super creative. Her drinks are not only beautiful but also delicious! Both drinks we got were tequila based. One is like a Tequila Sunset and the mango flavor was super fresh. All their syrups and garnishes are made in-house it seems. The second drink was inspired by the Lakers with purple and gold colors. It was the perfect balance of sweetness and tartness. If you're feeling adventurous, my recommendation is to ask the bartender to make you something, just let them know what your go-to liquor is and maybe some flavor profiles you like. The custom drinks do cost $15, but I think it's worth it considering the general range is from $12-$15 per drink.
