Lunch with six neighbors on a Friday at noon. Had a nice booth at the back. Ordered drinks and started chatting. Service was casual and unhurried, perfect for our group. Draft beer taps were broken, so bottled beer only. Orders included a cheesburger, chicken club sandwiches, a salmon salad and a fish dish. All were good, but we were paying more attention to conversation than to food. No room for dessert, split the check six ways and we were out of there at 1:30.

We are “regulars” at Zov’s Irvine! The food is always delicious, there are so many things on the menu that we like, so despite visiting often, food choice never gets boring. We walk there often with our dog, and patio seating is wonderfully accommodating for her.

FOOD & SERVICE ARE EXCELLENT AS ALWAYS. HOWEVER SO NOISY COULD NOT HAVE A DINNER CONVERSATION WITH FRIENDS. 2 FAMILIES CAME IN WITH CHILDREN WHO WERE SCREAMING, YELLING, RUNNING ALL OVER THE RESTAURANT AND CLIMBING ON THE BOOTHS. IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO HEAR EACH OTHER AS THERE WERE 4 OF US. WE LEFT EARLY. THIS IS A MANAGEMENT ISSUE. MANAGER DID NOTHING TO MAINTAIN A NICE AMBIANCE FOR DINERS. THIS IS NOT A PLAYGROUND, AND RESTAURANTS SHOULD ADVISE PARENTS OF THAT. IF YOU WANT LOYAL CUSTOMERS TO COME BACK, YOU NEED TO FIX THIS!
