iLounge

Located near John Wayne Airport (formerly Z Mario's), this new upscale offering features "international" cuisine, progressive house music, fashion and art.  iLounge aspires to "create an enticing scene for the elite" of Irvine and Orange County, according to founders.  Expect live DJs later at night, bottle service, happy hour daily and food served on their spacious patio.

The 10,000-square-foot supper club boasts an eclectic menu, featuring everything from macadamia-encrusted sea bass to frog legs.  Food is an important element of ilounge, and managing partner Navid Firoozi and creative director Arash Navari aim to offer up Irvine night owls a bit of a more upscale supper club vibe at the new destination.

Check the multiple themed VIP rooms here, which carry names like the "Penthouse room" (think vaulted ceilings, shadowed windows and an octagon-shaped couch).  For a more womb-like experience feel, slip into the "Red Room," where you can enjoy a martini with a loved one. 

ilounge opened August 7th, 2008.
