Irvine area restaurant recommendations?

[ooowowizstev]

Girlfriend and I are planning to have dinner in Irvine tonight but we aren't too familiar with the area. Just hoping someone more familiar with the area could recommend a couple of restaurants. Any suggestions would be great! :D

What type of food are you looking for?

There are a few places at Diamond DJ Jamboree shopping area but parking suck. Tokyo Table, tofu restaurant, and Guppy are a few places.

Or The Counter :D

Nice places to eat at The District Jamboree/Barranca or go to the Irvine Spectrum 5Fwy/Alton

Lots of good places to pick from at both spots.

Depends on how much $$$$ you want to spend. One of the best places I have been in a while in the lower OC area is actually in Laguna Beach, it's part of a hotel but the view is incredible, little bunny's jump around in the field just in front of the dining area, and if you get there during sunset, your girlfriend will love you forever lol... here's the link:

Good luck :D

**EDIT: Ohhh... Didn't see you said tonight... Well if you're willing to go, maybe try to set a reservation, usually that place doesn't take walk-ins.

Well I still do go down there very often so I'm still open to suggestions! Thanks guys.

How was dinner? where did you end up going?

Not in the Irvine Area, but check out Orange Hill Restaurant, or the Hobbit in Orange next time you take the girlfriend out ;)
