Best Seafood Restaurants in Irvine

Food and service were terrific. The sashimi bowl had fresh fish and a great assortment of vegetables.

Hadn't eaten at Del Frisco's since many years ago in Dallas, TX. Spectrum Center location is well appointed and inviting. Food was very good, but pricey. Dinner for 4 with minimum drinks ran $300.00; so definitely not for the faint hearted :)

Benny and Mary's gave us an absolutely world class experience. From their thoughtful, hand-written "Happy Anniversary" note, to the exceptional food, to the premium care and service their staff provided, our night was so memorable. This will now be our go-to restaurant for special occasions. Our only regret is that we didn't discover it earlier. Thank you Benny and Mary's for making our anniversary night so special!

I dined at Ruth’s Chris last night with a couple of coworkers, and while one of us had been before, it was my first time visiting. From the moment we arrived, our waiter, Chris, made a great impression. He was not only friendly but also very knowledgeable about the menu, which made our experience even better. To start, we each had an espresso martini, and it was absolutely delicious. For appetizers, we shared the spicy shrimp and calamari. The shrimp had just the right level of spice—flavorful but not overwhelming—and the calamari was crispy and perfectly seasoned. For our entrees, we all went with the filet, and it did not disappoint. I ordered mine medium-rare, and it was cooked to perfection. One of the standout features was that the steaks come out on sizzling hot plates, keeping them warm throughout the meal. The portion was generous, and the steak practically melted in your mouth. We also ordered a few sides: Brussels sprouts, lobster mac and cheese, and sweet potato casserole. Everything was fantastic, but the lobster mac and cheese was especially memorable—highly recommended. To cap off the meal, we indulged in cheesecake and crème brûlée for dessert, which were the perfect sweet finish to a fantastic meal. Overall, I was thoroughly impressed with both the service and the food. The restaurant’s Christmas decorations were also beautiful, adding a festive touch to the atmosphere. If you're looking for a top-notch dining experience, I highly recommend Ruth’s Chris. It’s absolutely worth every penny!

This was our first trip back since this restaurant changed from Wildfish to Eddie V's. Its been years! Our meal was outstanding, the sea bass cooked to perfection...moist, flakey...and smothered in lumps of crab meat and a delishous butter sauce served over asparagus spears. The Caesar salad was also very good, with crispy roumaine, a generous portion of parmesan shavings, baked croutons and Italian olive tampenade. I also have to note the bread was delicious and FREE! Our server was lovely, personable and attentive. My only complaint was she didn't leave my shaker ice at the table as requested, but that's not a huge deal. As far as ambiance goes, we found the decor warm and inviting. In the future, I'll request seating in the far side of the restaurant where the many TV screens at the bar aren't so visible. Sorry, but I don't think ANY TV's belong in a fine dining restaurant...just sayin'. Prices were on the high side for fine dining, but well worth our experience.
