🌟 In Irvine|That Michelin Spot at South Coast — Knife Pleat
This Michelin one-star restaurant inside South Coast Plaza is the closest one to Irvine. The French vibes are definitely there ✨ — though the dining atmosphere isn’t as formal as New York Michelin spots. Dress code is chill — flip-flops are fine 😄. California style = comfort first. 🍰 Dessert was the absolute standout — incredibly stunning and delicious! Order it, order it, order it! 🥩 Steak (medium well) — not dry, still juicy — perfect for those who prefer their steak more well-done. Other dishes were decent — nothing mind-blowing, but they did treat us to several complimentary petits fours! Overall — definitely deserves its one star 🌟. #IrvineLife #Irvine #CaliforniaTravel #IrvineDateSpot #Michelin #FrenchCuisine #HiddenGemEats
