CUCINA enoteca

Cucina Enoteca Restaurant Review

Set within walking distance of the Irvine Spectrum’s massive, neon-drenched cinema complex, this sister venue of San Diego’s Cucina Urbana counters the shopping center’s presence with its airy, rustic space done in earthen hues, a homespun décor, and a prominent wine display (Cucina Enoteca is also home to a retail wine shop). Appetizers include a Mason jar filled with creamy burrata and...

My husband and I came to CUCINA enoteca for the first time on Valentine's Day. It was a wonderful dinner! They have a great wine selection, and the wine is available for purchase at retail prices, making it much more affordable to buy a bottle than at most other restaurants. The service was wonderful (thank you Sean!) and the food was delicious. It was worth braving the Spectrum on a busy...

We have dined here several times. They have a unique menu and a great wine selection. We started with the Vasi Jars with a soft cheese and roasted garlic. For dinner we ordered the chopped salad and the Short Rib Papperdele and split them both. That was more than enough food for us (we're in our 60's). The short rib dish is very tasty as was the salad. We would have it again.

Very good food and presentation. Wanted to try the black cheese garlic bread but was told they were out tonight - odd. So had the Polenta Board which was delicious. Ordered the Mixed Grill and Pappardelle. Both were excellent. I would definitely go here again. The staff was attentive and ensured we were satisfied with the food. Thanks for making this an enjoyable evening.
