Y.N.K

I cannot speak too highly of this place. Tucked away location at the Irvine Marriott. Ravin knows his stuff and he was extremely nice and hospitable to us. Very funny and a lot of fun to watch. I had a Vieux Carre and my wife had a Paloma. Both to die for! He even gave us a sample of his smoked Old-Fashioned which was amazing as well!

You can't miss here if you like cocktails. We went on Saturday night for my wife's birthday and we are going again tonight with my brother and his girlfriend because we love it and had to share it.

Do yourself a favor and check this guy out!

Love this little lounge so much I don't even want to tell you about it. 1: It's tucked away towards the back; 2. Mixologist Jonathan is awesome; 3. The cocktail menu always changes: 4. Love the 1960s retro decor; 5. Makes me feel like I'm lounging in my own private home with a bar keeping table stocked full to satisfy my every whim and fancy. 6. What more can you ask for? 7. Oh- full kitchen menu available and servers will bring right to you without you leaving the lounge.

Relaxing, good eats, mixologist, and nice scenery. Staff is very pleasant, attentive, and if you want something sooner there each seating area or table has a service button. You can relax outside on the patio, just inside and feel the slightly cool breeze. Sit at the bar, the speak easy, or at tables.

YNK is small, but awesome! We stopped by here after dinner at the Melting Pot. It was the best way to end the evening. It’s a creative little spot. When we went, the theme was Amsterdam. The décor and drinks were all part of the theme. Their drink menus are hand written/drawn, which adds to the fun! We were told the theme changes every few months to bring something new and different. They keep some of the old drinks, but not all as some have special mixers, so be sure to ask the bartenders if you are not picking a drink from their current theme. Keep in mind these are craft cocktails and they take time, so if you are looking for a quick drink, this may not be the place for you. There is an art about all of it, so take your time, enjoy the vibes and sip your drink. I can’t wait to go back!
