Meizhou Dongpo Restaurant Review:



About the restaurant & décor: It makes sense that Orange County’s first iteration of this popular Sichuan-based chain is located in central Irvine. The city is known for its love affair with Asian restaurants. This venue sets itself apart from those other establishments quite dramatically from a visual standpoint, as vibrant blues and bright lighting yield an unapologetic fine dining vibe.

Food & Drinks: The price tag is also rather pronounced, so expect to shell out for seafood specialties like geoduck or sweet and sour fish. It should be noted that even with the surrounding cost-effective competition, the kitchen struggles to justify the tab through dishes like the bang-bang chicken, marinated avocado, or the scallops with vermicelli noodles. The signature selection, the Peking duck, tends to get snapped up quickly, so arrive sooner than later if it is what you desire. Beverages are dominated by pricey California wines.
