The Irving Social definitely has a vibe of its own. A rustic and chic atmosphere with exposed brick, warm lighting and a beautiful outdoor garden bar in the back. Victoria was a wonderful bartender. Drinks were tasty and the food menu was modern and held a great variety of foods to choose from. Both healthy and fun choices. It’s a must if you are in the area.

Rustic looking bar with great cocktails and beer options. Tried a couple of vegetarian items – Kung Pao cauliflower and stuffed sweet red peppers – and they were delicious and filling. The smoked strawberry cocktail was perfect.

Great place. This place has 20% off on Mondays!!! We ordered the uptown girl and bamba for drinks. Both were delicious. We ordered the steak frites, pork ragu, and bread pudding. Everything was delicious and highly recommended. My steak was over cooked but still good.

Has a city vibe, with a pub feel, with a vinyl album theme. My parmesan crusted chicken was made to my specifications, well done with dressing on side. It was extremely tasty. My drink did the job and I didn’t need a 2nd. A cozy spot whether you sit inside or in outdoor patio.

My wife and I like this place a lot. Very cool, funky vibe with a music/vinyl record theme. Fun bar with high tops as well as a lounge area with big arm chairs and coffee tables. The food is good to very good, though some things we liked better than others. The wings were absolutely fantastic, and we loved the garlic shrimp and burgers. Unfortunately the entrees we had fell a little flat – not bad but solid, not amazing. Overall this is a cool and casual spot, great for a date night. We will definitely be back but will stick more to the “shareables” portion of the menu.

It’s hard to find a place with good cocktails, but this place nailed it. We had the material girl, and it was a perfectly balanced drink. As an appetizer, we ordered spicy garlic shrimp. It was good but not spicy. We had burgers with fries The meat was juicy and tender. Loved the food and low-key vibe. The service was excellent.

We always enjoy our time at Irving Social. The food is fresh and tasty. Our favorites are the crab fries, wings, and meatballs as appetizers. The drinks are great also and love that they have local beers. Whether you sit at the bar, sit at a high top, or sit down for dinner in the back, you are always greeted by the friendliest staff with quick service.

Atmosphere is great a good looking place, cool vibe but don’t let that fool you. Food was just OK, way overcooked was my burger. There was no one in the place yet my rare burger was well done. If you can’t cook a burger you shouldn’t be in the kitchen. Staff didn’t really care, nor do I care to ever spend money in this place again, every rule of basic service not followed at the bar.

Visiting the Performing Arts center I located this restaurant and liked the reviews. I had high hopes for this place but it was a noooo gooooo. When we arrived there was a 20 minute wait. We wanted first available (inside or outside) while we waited we sat at the bar and ordered drinks. None of the drinks were good. They were pretty but very weak and not flavorful. I wanted to add grenadine but they didn’t have any. We waited out our time and was seated outside. I ordered the social dry aged burger. I didn’t want fries and asked for an alternative like veggies but they didn’t have any so I got potatoes. Also ordered was the sriracha wings, lobster tacos, shrimp and asparagus pasta, and the Irving dry aged burger. I feel like we waited Wayyyy to long for our food. I was scared the food wouldn’t come in time for us to leave for our show. We waited so long it started to get windy and cool outside. A friend ordered a Long Island iced tea. It was a big miss. Not good at all. Food finally comes out and we immediately ask for the bill because we are pressed for time.
