The food is good but what you'll really want to come here for are their cocktails . The seats at the bar are the best seats in the house. Kudos to the bartenders for really adding to Arc experience.

The bacon sandwich was incredible. You must LOVE bacon in order to enjoy it. It's very thick, like a thick ham steak . Also, the onion soup is savory. Lots of cheese melted into it. #arcrestaurant

Everything is wood fired . Calamari and potatoes are especially good. While red snapper with head and tail is well seasoned and charred. The burger is their flagship and it can feed two.

The cow.pig.duck. burger will change EVERYTHING. Hyperbole, yes, but true. And those cast iron potatoes ... Good God. Delicious. Fabulous Steak sandwich also. Such flavor! Wood fired oven is genius.

It's probably better than most places you've been in OC/SD. Wedge was best in class . Will be back for the burger & tomahawk. Good Negroni & Cab. Calamari was super tender. Bread=yum

Best Bacon ever. The steak sandwich is amazing. The Burger is sooooooo good. Duck tacos amazing. Going for the BLT next trip.

@joe4pres

Everything on the menu is so delicious. Seriously. Every thing. But... Everyone there makes me feel like an a-hole for being there. A true quandary.

Jennifer Dooley

Bartenders who know what they're doing. Classics are proper, and house cocktails are done well . If you're into whiskey (and you should be), try the Cigarettes & Coffee .

Hank Alonso

Been here four separate times for lunch and dinner and have never been disappointed. Food and service is exceptional. Sit at the bar . It is more fun!

Decor out of a Restoration Hardware catalog and a steak sandwich that will make you forget how unhappy you are with life. Well done, ARC.

Jeff Lenney

This place was AMAZING. The food is a bit pricey , BUT the quality of the food, the service, even the beer selection are worth the trip. Will be going back

Michael Fourre

The mushrooms are awesome. Plenty of unique types that you probably haven't ever tried before. Mushroom enthusiasts recommended

Joyce

Very good. Interesting beet salad , mahi taco . Nice ambiance. I will go back another time for lunch or even dinner !

Jeff Lenney

BTW - Try the pig for your main dish - the meatballs are a GREAT appetizer you can share with another person

Curt Gibbs

Ask for the brussel sprouts as a side dish. Best you might ever taste due to very hot wood oven

Ron

The porking beans is excellent. Definitely not the one from the can :-)

Jonny T

Large variety of delicious meats!

Curt Gibbs

For something different try ARC for brunch featuring duck eggs and their own bacon

OC Weekly

The prices are reasonable, with nothing costing more than $15, and the commitment it makes by cooking with only firewood for fuel is admirable, even if it sounds unnecessarily gimmicky. Read more

Sit at the bar . It great to watch how your food is prepared and cooked.

Ebtissam Al-Madi

DAN COX

Kathy Walsh

The Brussels sprouts are divine!

Anthony Rallo

OMG- 16oz off-menu burger is insane.

Chris Miller

Burger , stacked to the heavens.

Erin D.

My meat-loving friends were won over by the veggie dish . Delicious.

Mary Cardas

amazing creations from the bar...and BURGER !

DAN COX

The most delicious BLT I've ever tasted.

John Olsen

FIRE!!! All food prepared over open wood fire

Priscilla @shescookin

Sit at the bar to watch all the action!

Anne Marie

Off-menu burger . Mind-blowing.

Burger is amazing

Carolyn Himes

Try the "Number One" libation.

Lauren-Michelle Kraft

The food is alright. nothing special. The menu lay out is pretentious and reflects the owners' ego. The place might not leave such a sour taste in your mouth if the owners weren't complete pricks!

Jamel Stewart

The food and atmosphere is good. My family and I had really bad service. Might give it a second chance but probably will not.

VaL

Real good but pricey
