Beyond their size, small businesses are defined by their spirit. And at the helm are their intrepid founders—scrappy, ambitious, and resilient. They invent and build things despite uncertainty, because it’s what drives them. Their risks lead to innovation that moves the world forward. And we need them.
We made reservations for Dublin4 and it seemed pretty wild so they walked next door and sat up at the high top at Wineworks. Such a better atmosphere. Both restaurants share the same kitchen and restrooms. And there’s a lot of similarities between the menus but this has the better options. I always complain that OC doesn’t have great food but this place knows the game. And the wine menu is excellent. I even had a Pinot Noir from Baden, Germany. All dishes were excellent and the service was even better. Only complaint is the parking is terrible so good luck, maybe the lot is bigger in the back.
We went to this place at Valentine’s Day. It was really a perfect choice for that. Romantic place with delicious food. Calamari was fresh and tasty. Beef was good also
We celebrated our 30th anniversary here last night, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. As always, the service was exceptional and the food absolutely outstanding. We started with the corn chowder—hands down the best soup we've had, no matter the season. On our server’s recommendation, we both ordered the halibut, and she was spot on—it was delicious. She also suggested a Chardonnay that paired perfectly with the dish. We finished with the warm butter cake, which was the ideal sweet ending to a truly memorable evening.
I don't mind dropping a couple hundred for dinner for my wife and I but this did not measure up. The tables were very small and jammed together, preventing privacy. With the exception of the beet salad, the food was a miss. While the wild mushroom appetizer had nice flavor, I kept getting some sort of gritty substance that reminded me of sand. Please clean your produce properly before making the dish. My wife's salmon was not good. She barely ate a third of it. My steak (a New York), was satisfactory but not worth the price charged. I will say the potatoes on the side were tasty. It was very kind that we were served a complimentary dessert (Basque Cheesecake) for our anniversary. I should have taken the waitress' advice to try the budino or bread pudding instead. The cheesecake was nothing special. The parking situation is awful. Overall, we don't plan to return.
Delicious. Unbelievable. A friend took me here to celebrate my birthday. A completely over the top experience.
