You should go for breakfast or lunch when it's Brio Brio. Bri Baru is a brand new concept they're trying and I haven't had a chance to give it a try yet. Their pastries are good and they have my favorite matcha drinks that I've had. Prices are a little steep, but it's good. The miso pork salad...

Lago was supposed to be a pop-up, but it's been there for a few years now; hopefully it's permanent at this point. Don't have to wait in that long Anaheim line for the Matcha Sea Salt Cold Brew anymore.

I I feel like I'm in the minority of people who don't care for Angelina's...I haven't been in a while so maybe I need to go back and try a different pizza. If you like good pizza, Centro in Old Town Tustin is great and Folks in Costa Mesa is also great. Also, I remember you saying you live in...

This is exactly what I was saying too...Shea is playing some sort of game or something. And given that in the past I've heard that The Irvine Company has to approve the pricing for builders' new homes, how did they approve this? Does this mean that Azul and Olivewood are pricing their homes...

I mean more small shops or local chains, not big chains. That's not many.

I know lots of people who I grew up with that fit the exact description you just gave...perks of going to a competitive Irvine school.

Hopefully some SD or LA coffee chains can come to Irvine soon. There are some that I feel could for sure qualify and be able to afford. Better Buzz just opened in San Clemente and is opening in Laguna Hills. It would be cool if Irvine could get one of those.

I wish the Irvine Co would allow more than just Starbucks in their centers. Or maybe that's the only coffee shop that can afford their rents. Irvine has a lot of coffee shops, but mostly in the Jamboree/business district area.

Eastwood for 3M...I like EW, but no.

Reminds me of my classmates in HS who would cry when they got an A-.

PS being in the boonies of Irvine is totally different than RMV. Unless you're in Sendero, you're wayyyy out there. One of my old colleagues bought out there and it's like going to another state :ROFLMAO:. Detached homes have an HOA of 300 there. Pretty high MR too. Tax rate is about 2% in the...

I know what it is, but I haven't heard that being used in recent years so I was taken aback.

RMV is in the boonies and the HOAs are way too high.

White flight?! Lol

That neighborhood seems to be becoming teardown central. Many homes are being torn down and big 4k square foot homes are being built in their place. They don't match the neighborhood at all, but oh well.

It would be one thing if it was a 70s home in an actual coveted area, but this realtor just added that word for pizzazz. The Willows is not known to be some exclusive neighborhood.

Over 1k a foot in the Willows..... https://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/4491-Robinwood-Cir-92604/home/4665727

Windsor is a homebrew shop, it's not tapping home brews. They have guest taps from all over. And Green Cheek doesn't serve only IPAs, while Bottle Logic actually has tons of IPAs. Windsor actually has a non-IPA Bottle Logic on tap at the moment as well. If you like breweries that have a variety...

Taiko and Fukada come to mind for Irvine Japanese. South County might have a variety of random places, but most of them are mediocre IMO. I meant they seem to be getting better options as far as quality goes, but their restaurants are nothing to write home about as a whole. Another thing that's...

They have a few things we're missing, but overall South County has a really lackluster food scene. It seems to be getting better little by little.
