Cucina Enoteca Irvine

Burnt Brussels sprouts and the margarita pizza was just okay… just sauce and a few rounds of cheese. No basic or fresh tomatoes..: squash blossoms were delicious and service, ambiance was great!

Enjoy a nice dinner and a bottle of wine in the free. service was great. the meat and pasta dishes really liked it.

I’ve dined at this Cucina many times before and have typically had a good experience. Our larger group got seated right away and had service quickly which was nice and appreciated. I’m doing a dairy free diet and scoped out the menu beforehand to see what options I had. I was excited about the beet salad entree and hummus appetizer, and was disappointed to find out the hummus was the one item they were out of. We asked to order some bread so I’d have something else to munch on. It came covered in cheese. Our server was ok but didn’t refill waters the two hours we were there and the portion sizes were very small. I wouldn’t recommend for anyone dairy free as there aren’t enough options in my opinion, especially when they’re out of things.

Great variety of wine selection from the most expensive to the most affordable ones, food tasted fresh and our server, Tracy was awesome! Satisfied customer here!

I’ve been to Cucina Enoteca a number of times and it has always come through on its food and drink offerings. It’s one of my “default comfort food” restaurants. The food is always great (always have the squash blossoms and one of their pizzas; the chopped salad always impresses; the mains are great if you still have room). The wine list is extensive and the prices are very reasonable. The service is better than most places.
