The restaurants food quality has been diminishing slowly over the last few years and hopefully with a replacement for Executive Chef Kurt coming soon someone will once again show some pride and reign in the kitchens laziness. You may think that sounds harsh, but recently I ate at their new location in Anaheim's Garden Walk and the food there was outstanding. I will not eat at the Irvine location again until they serve the same quality of food as their sister location.
I will say that their happy hour is still one of the best in Orange County though. They offer a whole page of happy hour appetizers for under $6.00 - and the $1.99 cheeseburger with fries is worth going there by itself.
