- MMikeOrange County •6 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWe made dinner reservations several weeks in advance as it would be Valentine’s Day. We were seated immediately and greeted by our server who was very attentive throughout the service. The food was well prepared, presented and delicious as expected. We were also greeted by management to make sure we were having an enjoyable evening, which was greatly appreciated.More infoThe Winery Restaurant & Wine Bar- TustinPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Tustin•4.5

- JRJessicaRVIPOrange County •25 reviews5.0Dined on Sep 18, 2023Wow! First and foremost, I want to shout out Augustine.. He was absolutely amazing. He was a one man show other than the cooks. He made us delicious drinks, was there in a timely manner every time we needed anything. He was friendly and working hard to make sure we were taken care of. We started with the Fiery Strawberry Margarita and the Spicy Daisy, both were very yummy, but we liked the strawberry one more. The Spicy Daisy has a smokey flavor, but the strawberry one was more refreshing. For the Appetizer we got the Crispy Squid and Shishito Peppers... SOOOOO GOOD!!! We demolished that dish... I'd be absolutely happy to just have drinks and this appetizer... The only thing left was the stems from the peppers. ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! Matt got the Sea Bass and I got the pan roasted chicken, very good, no complaints! For dessert we got the Churros, very good! We will be going back and most definitely recommend stopping by!More infoHaven point at Sonesta IrvinePrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Irvine•4.7
