What are the best, upscale, but fun and not stuffy places to dine currently? The place needs to be within walking distance to the Pageant of the Masters at the Irvine Bowl 650 Laguna Canyon Rd.
Thanks in advance.
Jeff - I’ve had very good experiences at the Nirvana Grill which is definitely within walking distance.
Broadway by Amar Santana - fantastic cocktails and food, quite casual.
+1 Broadway
must order a cocktail, bartenders are pro. i like to find one to pair w food.

Three Seventy Common is similar to Broadway in terms of food and atmosphere. We like both. There are differences though, but generally prefer Broadway.
Alessa and 230 Forest are very good too. Both close.
Thanks you guys! I will try Broadway. Now, I just hope they are corkage friendly…
They are but it will cost you $35.
Michael McConnell is the sommelier. Real good guy.
Thanks again for the tip. I certainly recognized the location when we walked up as I had been there before when it was Five Feet.
