Staff is very knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. The vibes at Ruin are super hip and relaxing with the coolest vintage decor that works! Menu is constantly being updated with fun new drinks - get there early for a seat! Parking in the front or the the back works well. Bartender JC is rad - will make you a custom cocktail!

Great drinks and fun decor that creates a unique environment. One of my favorite places for drinks in the OC :)

Such a great bar, amazing service, and the cat's pajama was great!

Honestly, wanted to love Ruin Bar based on the photos and trendy location, but it was a disappointment. It’s very loud with limited seating, so don’t expect to show up and get seated by a host with a server who tells you more about the drink menu. Instead, it’s a loud divey type hipster bar, and you have to yell your order to the bartender and hope that they understood what you said, and try to find a spot to sit or stand.If the drinks were good, and bartenders cared about ingredients and methods,I totally wouldn’t mind this type of approach. Instead, the drinks fall flat to what would be an interesting and eclectic menu.I ordered ‘Not Yo Momma’s Spritzer’ and it was really dull and not at all what I wanted, and not what it sounded like it would be based on the name. And the sprig of thyme was supposed to be lit and smoked, but the bartender’s torch wasn’t working, so he gave up because he didn’t care to try to fix it or get a new one (and there was no line at all, so no pressure there). Really don’t expect to buy a drink for $15 and for it not to even be made correctly. Most bartenders care about the craft of the cocktails they serve, but they do not here. Not that type of experience.My husband had the ‘Euro Trip’ which was better, but still - not something either of us loved. We wouldn’t go back.

Great spot to grab a drink! Friendly staff and reasonable prices.

Love this spot. Cocktails are a little high but they have wine and beers at good price points. Not much seating but it gives it a cozy sort of feel. Love the way it is decorated!

Really cool hidden bar. Reminds me of the Vanderpump bar inside Caesars palace.

Great drinks and cool atmosphere.

Such a unique and cool space! Our drinks were great!
