Winery Restaurant Description:
The Winery Restaurant & Wine Bar brings a much-needed wine-focused venue to central Orange County. The sophisticated interior features copper-colored banquettes, plush aubergine chairs, mahogany woods and golden walls. For oenophiles, the highlight of the space is the impressive 5,000-bottle wine cellar, humidity- and temperature-controlled for optimal aging. The outdoor patio, which oddly enough overlooks a dull street, is set with a limestone floor and accented by stone tables, teak chairs and a double-sided fireplace. The menu by French-born chef Yvon Goetz (formerly of The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel, Balboa Bay Club and David Wilhelm's Culinary Adventures) brings Cal-French dishes to The Winery. We recommend the seasonal soup for starters, perhaps tomato and basil. For lunch, the gourmet burger is worth the price with its Prime beef, bacon, avocado, blue cheese and crispy pomme frites. The stand-out entrée is the bone-in short rib. For dessert, try the blackberry-Cabernet sorbet or the apple-cranberry tartine.
