A MUST TRY RESTAURANT! Reasonably priced, incredible atmosphere, quality food, and phenomenal customer service. I know, seems too good to be true...but such restaurants still do exist. FOOD: *Zinfandel Braised Napa Lamb Shank ($27): sunchuke puree, mint yogurt, caramelized vinaigrette. FALL OF THE BONE, EXQUISITE! *Signature Crispy Meyer Lemon & Honey Duck Wings ($12.50): felt bad eating the duck but very tasty! Be prepared, they look and are the size of chicken drumsticks not small wings...but definitely worth trying. A bit more chewier than chicken, but the glaze is delicious. *Grilled Bone-In Ribeye Steak ($38): Smoked blue cheese red potatoes (ordered garlic mashed potatoes instead), summer veggies, sauce choron. Lets get real...$38 for a GOOD ribeye that includes two sides is unheard of. Not only is this so reasonably priced, but the chief prepared this to exact specifications. I ordered the steak Medium and it arrived with a warm, pink center and seared perfectly. Just to give perspective, this by no means is this premium quality such as from Cut Steakhouse, but definitely on par with other choice steaks I have enjoyed elsewhere even places double in price. DRINKS: *Drakes Hefeweizen *Snozzberry ($11.50): Vodka, creme de more, lime, ginger beer. TASTES AS GOOD AS IT LOOKS! Just look at that beauty! So light and refreshing, but take it easy...it is vodka after all! Kudos to the bartender for making such well crafted and beautiful drinks! Ironwood, you truly delivered in providing 5 star food and service all for a very reasonable price. Thank you to our lovely server Courtney who was so knowledgeable of the entire menu inside out, recommended the perfect wine pairing to our entrees, and very accommodating of all of our needs. Next time I am in the area, I will surely come back!

This place is amazing! Their food never disappoints, and the drinks they come up with on a regular basis will please any palate. The staff is very friendly and welcoming, and Gabe and Ryan are the best! I have had both their fish and steak dishes and they do both with precision. You want a medium rare steak? You will get one! The fish is tender and never dry and the skin is crispy. They have excellent chefs/cooks there who know what theyre doing. For what you get the prices are very reasonable. Weve become regulars and were so glad Ironwood is in our neck of the woods!

Our first visit and we will be back. Excellent wine list and a very creative but not weird menu. The sea bass was fabulous and an ample portion. Not inexpensive but a very good value for the quality and portions. Service was also very good. Our server, Linda, was friendly, knowledgeable and attentive.

Good price for the bone in but limited menu for seafood eaters if you dont like poached salmon or seabass with sauces And allowing casual dress shorts is a put off for a nice restaurant when you are going out for a nice dinner The web says business casual but not enforced

Great food, amazing dessert, friendly service in an classy-casual setting with a good view on the patio. Healthy fresh food, tasty chefs specials and cocktails you want to sip on all night. Features a limited but good craft beer menu and a fair selection of wine.

All I have to say is wow! The food here is remarkable. I went with a group of several people we all tried each others plates and everything was out of this world. Cocktails were great too. I highly recommend you put in a reservation first.

We eat here around once or twice a month. Everytime we are here we have the absolute best staff waiting on us and the food is so fresh and delicious. My compliments to the chef for his creative daily specials (Hint: more short ribs!!!).

They really go above and beyond to make you happy. Our table we had a reservation for was 10 minutes late to be ready so they gave us a free appetizer. And the food was amazing! Had a signature cocktail that was to die for

Really is a great ribeye. Maybe its because I just got back from Vegas but thought the prices reasonable. Sides we notable as well. Good wine selection. Decent atmosphere for a mall. A find in Laguna Hills

There arent many restaurants where you could honestly say that youd recommend EVERYTHING on the menu; this place is definitely one of them though! You wont be disappointed

Enjoyed a wonderful glass of Merlot and a meal of their delicious Brussel sprouts, mac and cheese. This restaurant is a sister to VINE in san Clemente. Wonderful!

Great service and ambiance. Food was over the top delicious. Shock that something so good and not corporate or casual is so close to home.

Great food and cocktails. Reservations recommended for Friday and Saturday night. A little pricey but with it for quality and flavor.
