Bacchus Bar and Bistro

Enjoyed a quiet, relaxing and delicious brunch at Bacchus this morning. The outdoor patio seating area is so nice by the fountain. I've had two of the brunch items on two different occasions and both didn't disappoint. On my first visit I had the Italian Fritata and today the Seafood Enchiladas. Both were delicious! So many wonderful brunch choices it was hard to decide. Also, the service is right on! I will be returning soon, can't wait!

The host was very welcoming and knows his wines. He made a great recommendation. Nice atmosphere. Not too pricey. They have a good selection of wines. I was not a wine lover before but when I tasted one of their wine flavors which is the Chardonnay, it has a good taste. Love it! Sweet (residual sugar) and sour (acidity) are obviously important components of wine. Have one yours!

I stopped in to this little neighborhood bar after dinner one night to meet a friend for a drink while in town visiting. I was surprised by the interior as there's a fireplace and it has a bit of a cozy cabin vibe going on. It was pretty cool, actually. I ordered a glass of wine and it was decently priced - score! It was not crowded or busy at all when I went (around 9 pm on a weekday). The bartender was prompt with my drink and polite when I asked to cash out right away.

Very quaint and relaxing wine bar with good eats

Bacchus is a hidden gem in Irvine. I thought the main focus of the restaurant would be on wine and spirits, however, it ended up being on the cuisine. The dinner that we had at Bacchus was one of the best I have had in awhile. Everything was cooked to perfection and the market fish was clearly the highlight of the evening. I recommend getting the pork belly lollipops - oh my!! Plus, the charcuterie tray. The meats were incredible + when paired with freshly backed (and warm) bread...pure perfection!
