What people say

5 out of 5 stars

“Many thanks to Brandy who made YKN an inviting place to be. I enjoyed the cocktails. Please try the guava chiffon pancake cocktail ❤️. Delicious! I had the poke nachos, but please request that the wontons are warmed first. It really brings the cold poke, warm wontons, and the remainder of flavors beautifully together. I most certainly will visiting YNK upon my return to The Irvine Marriott.”

“Food was great, service was great, and amazing ambiance; but closing at 11:00 is unbelievably inconvenient and honestly frustrating. Lights came on for closing when we were half way through eating/drinking, and our bartender had to turn away 2 separate parties who also tried coming in. Trying to save the hundred bucks on wages for the extra hour is costing thousands because when you close that 11, that means we can’t come in after 9, which is about the earliest most working professionals can make it out. The ambiance is amazing but it’s disappointing that we can’t come back here anymore because of how early they close”

“Sorry, but this is not a Speakeasy, this is a hotel bar with a mild 1920's theme - we felt tricked and regretted taking a Lyft there... Don't get your hopes up...”
