I WISH I COULDGIVETHISPLACE0STARS DONTGOHERE!!! THISPLACEIS A RIPOFF this place is the most rip off place in the world! their prices always change. whine I first went here a while ago, it was $ 240 for a bottle of vsop I came back here and they charged $ 290. they said because it was busy. I came back later on a day that was dead as hell, Friday or Saturday, and they only charged me $ 240. so I thought that when it was busy they charge more than when it’s dead, because who the hell wants to pay almost 300 to drink at a place that’s empty. I came back a couple of weeks ago and it was dead as hell again, and they charged me $ 290 a bottle. I was reallyyyy angry because why would u charge me this much when there was no body here??? we didn’t find out til we got the bill. if I knew it was that much when it’s dead, I’d leave. they’ve been charging me $ 240 or $ 290 a bottle, depending on how the hell they feel that day or some sh! t. last week we got a bottle and like 4 Heinekens and the bill was $ 340. WTF!!! what kind of business where u charge people whatever u feel like? AGAIN, DONTGOHERE!!! GOANYWHEREELSEINSTEAD! if u want something similar to r3, go OPM. I don’t really like OPM either but at least their prices r constant and it’s only $ 230 a bottle there. I got messaged be some random Unilocal person that said why would a business charge whatever they want? and maybe that person should ask r3 that. I’ve been here multiple times and they have charged me 240 or 290, inconsistently. and if u know the workers, you get a discount and it costs less than 240 a bottle. I know for a fact because one of my friends knew a worker there.

Everyone is nice and friendly here. Don’t let the outside intimidate you. It’s nice and clean inside. Asian crowd, fun environment. I heard their going to be changing the venue pretty soon. They have a nice list of appetizers, cocktails, and bottles. I would recommend chicken wings, fruit platter, and french fries. I was surprised they had Dom P and Moët Nectar Rose. Two really great bottles to celebrate the beginning of the night, maybe throughout the night if you feel like being a little fancy. LOL, All the waitresses are really fun and nice. Amazing food and quite entertaining spot if you don’t want to go far.

Not too shabby, not too shabby. Bottle service pricing is decent and doesn’t feel like you got screwed up the butt like LA clubs/lounges do. The crowd is definitely an older one. I’d say everyone there is dressed like they’re in their mid to late 20’s with faces of mid 30 to 50 year olds. I saw a lot of women that were probably the same age as me & Pinky’s parents age there… The poor Asian man’s Avec/Sutra? A cheaper, more local substitute for Avalon? Seemed like it. But I guess bc they were all so much older there was no drama, people were actually relatively friendly and minded their own business just trying to have a good time. Personally, and honestly, I did not want to come here at first, but somehow ended up here. At 10:30 the place was dead, but by 11 it started filling up. Music was super duper loud to the point I was yell talking bc if I didn’t I wasn’t sure if anything was coming out of my mouth. However, I enjoyed the jams. In the beginning the DJ played some old school hip hop and progressed to EDM, but not just the usual bass-laden, dirty sounding one that I personally like… he wove in some nice melodic, ballad EDM tunes that was a hit with Pinky. Food was surprisingly tasty! Fried frog legs & bo tai chinh were good even though I had a full stomach. Which must mean they’re were pretty on point! I just wish the bo tai chinh was cooked less, I mean, it IS supposed to be a raw beef/carpaccio dish no? Spicy cucumtini, sorry I didn’t like it. First off, too much, way too much salt on the rims, not enough spice, and why are their ice cubes in my martini? Martinis are supposed to have the glass be chilled, not have ice in the actual drink. To a sober person, R3 is a smidge nicer than other OC spots like this, but overall needs a little revamping in their décor and furniture. Scuffed up white tables, possibly bigger chandeliers hanging on the lonely ceilings… and maybe a brand new door to the women’s bathroom. The door knob to the women’s bathroom fell off on one side so someone stuffed tissue paper to «fix» it, but then a few of us ladies got trapped inside for a bit when the other door knob also fell off. Err yea, lost some classy points there. I know I won’t be back, just bc places like these aren’t my thing, but for the time I was there it wasn’t too bad. And the people were nice there, from the employees to the patrons. Maybe if they were a little more mellow and lowered the volume of the music I’d return in 10+ years.

*******DONOTFORGETYOURPERSONALBELONGINGSHERE! You will never get them back *********** I had friends leave jackets here on more than 5 occasions and they always claim not to have it when you come back to ask for the belongings. We actually left when everyone was gone already and so there was no reason for them not to have it. Either way, there is a possibility that other patrons may have taken them, but you will lose your things regardless so make sure to just leave your jackets and personal belongings in your vehicle or at home if you think you will be taking them off here.

My girlfriend took me here on a spontaneous Saturday night I’m not into bars, especially Asian bars but I had an awesome time here. My girlfriend and I decided to meet here with the intention of only chilling. I got here a little early and the bouncers at the doors were extremely friendly and helpful. They made me feel protected until my girlfriend came. Once she came, we walked over to the bar where she ran into some friends she knew. We also met a cool group of girls that bought us drinks and ended up dancing with us. They had a DJ that played dancing music for the most of the time and partial karaōke for some people who wanted to sing. They were actually good too. The bartender was also very nice. He also took care of us. The crowd is a little fobby but all good energy here and no trouble. It’s small inside but it can get pretty pack. It’s usually more pack on Wednesday. The day we came it had a good amount of people but definitely not packed. There is no cover to this place. Saturday’s is mostly like a lounge. On Wednesdays they have karaōke night. If you and your girls come in with about 6 girls on a Wednesday night you receive a free bottle and table. It’s good being female. This place use to be Leon if anyone remembers. It’s gotten a lot better. Oh memories.

SUMMARY: Mixed drinks come out strong and tasty about 10 $ average nothing really higher, beer around $ 4 to $ 7(Bud light to a decent IPA). Really loud but lounge type of feel for groups of friends, nothing for the lone wolf type as many of the ladies have boyfriends at home or with them. Women will not ATALL initiate in conversation even after a many attempts of asking different ones about themselves. Maybe it is because of my age, but regardless I don’t consider age to be the reason to not conversate even at the lack of reason for it. Many of them are there for friends, coworkers, family and that is it. So I can understand where they are coming from but from my own perspective it comes off as not welcoming nor friendly, especially if you just want to show a girl your appreciation for her. It is a weird generation of entitlement we live in these days, like as if direct friendships are more important than a gentle stranger… Hmmm… perhaps I guess. :). I don’t understand but as my own personal opinion I’m more on have everyone jump in if they are sensitive about the groups feelings, which I am. If you want to meet a girl, go ahead try if your asian and good looking(possibly tall and rich) and try it here, otherwise go for the music and ambience(DJ is pretty good and plays a lot of music to dance too). Besides that don’t have too many expectations from all the beautiful woman because it is eye candy and you will be just struck by that amount of sheer beauty in there, if you like asian girls. :) CONS: I asked one girl if she just needed water and I swear she literally just waved her hand at me in a «No» fashion and her friends did the same, haha :), she just looked a little drunk is all and why not help a lady? Also to note that they were a little older most of them(mid 20’s to early 30’s) but even the early 20’s were clickish as well. To be honest their were mostly FOB’s there, but they were all gorgeous, and I don’t know why their are SOMANY and yet so many have no interest in a stranger being polite. :). Don’t have expectations as a lone wolf here unless your a very good looking asian gentleman who is tall and handsome as well. For me it is all about the crowd and ladies behaviors, but I’ll try again on another time when their isn’t a birthday party. Too crowded also on Saturday night but if you don’t mind a little bump here and there you will be ok. Patio is cool but way too small for larger groups of people who just want fresh air because it will be taken up by smokers, and also a lot of the cute girls didn’t go outside mostly just the couples and guys. Again probably badgering this issue to death, but I didn’t feel welcome by any of the ladies even the one’s I knew who invited me, they weren’t so keen on conversation either(and in their defense they had to work… alot apparently haha), so it is mostly you at the bar because the lounge chairs were taken by hurdled families larger than your group of friends. PROS: Trish and Julie were sweet and they work there as well as promoters. Too bad they are very busy with helping the crowd and customers get into the mood and swing of things with you personally. Otherwise a good pair of girls to get to know if you ever have the chance. I wish them the best. The food I don’t think they have any, also the drinks were solid, I was happy with the amount of alcohol to taste. The atmosphere is classy with walls lined with TV screens and they will post friends pictures and birthday wishes on them as well(way to go and customize things!) great idea for large parties. My take on the place is that they have chandeliers, white chairs and walls, older vintage style chairs, solid color lights about the area with wooden floors, and a classy open feel with a cheap price tag. So you get the best of both worlds. Flashy and dress is trendy yet flexible hipster if you like. But a coat, suit coat would fit right in hear with a pair of branded jeans haha, I guess that could have been my problem that night.

This lounge is awesome and the ambiance is spectacular from the moment you walk in. It has a classy feel with the lighting, crystal chandeliers, and sleek furnishings that all lead to an open dance floor. I took my brother and friends here for a good time on Thursday night and we did not leave disappointed. The staff here is always friendly and helpful(and also very attractive). The VIP host manager Leena Nguyen was fantastic and the bottle service she provides is nothing less than exceptional. If you’re having any special occasions I’d highly recommend you to contact her!

The venue is amazing! The décor is very modern and simple. If you have a huge group of friends this place is the go-to for a chill night. Highly recommend getting a table(contact Leena). They sell a nice variety of snacks/foods, price is average and guaranteed whichever you choose, it’ll be delicious. Drinks are unique, I’m still dreaming of their Lychee Martini!!! Definitely follow them on instagram to see which DJs are playing or what’s their specialty drink of the night! Overall, you’ll have a great time at R3, make sure you bring your friends!

Everyone should remember this venue is a lounge, not a nightclub. If you come in with those expectations than your experience should generally be a positive one. This place used to be really rough around the edges but they’ve improved the interior significantly. The venue is fairly small, comprised of mostly tables and the bar can get a little cramped on busy nights. Bottle service here is cheap and the drinks are fairly priced. This is a great venue to come with a group of friends and get a table but if it’s just a few guys then it will still be enjoyable at the bar on a busy night. I don’t come here all the time but on certain nights the place is packed with pretty faces so that’s why I keep coming back!

This is my favorite playground if I want to play with the familiar Bolsa kids. If I want to play with new kids, I go to Sutra :) My friends and I always get bottle service here and we always drink more than we should. We have donated plenty to this awesome place hehehe… Most of the time the music is great and I could dance all night to it. There was a couple of times it wasn’t so great but we really didn’t care because we were too faded. This place is a guaranteed good time for me and my friends. Best of all, it’s so close to my house.

This place is a no! for me too many fobs it’s not even that diverse. Security guards look like criminals who just got out of jail plus I don’t even think they have a license to hold that gun. First time and last time coming here. Wish the authorities should raid this place.

First time here a few weeks ago… And the last. The people who work in this place are horrible. Customer service is TERRIBLE and their attitudes are just as bad. I don’t understand how they are still in business. Listen to the reviews. Save your time and money, go somewhere that actually values their customers.

Interesting experience at R3. first and last time. Never again lol So I came in here on a Saturday night, which happened to be a white party. Not everyone is in white, and the crowd ranges to be from I guess late 20s/early 30s — 45, with the occasional early 20s to people that would be your uncle. 80% are fobs(which I have no problem with. I live with them and my good friend is one), I heard lots of «du ma» and it just made me realize that Vietnamese is not the prettiest language. Easy to learn ish but in terms of «pleasant listening». When that girl has a nasally ass voice, and is telling her friend to quickly take a bump in the bathroom, nahh. The crowd is not my cup of tea. If you are coming from DTF, or Costa Mesa. Yeah just stay there. I prefer the places at Costa Mesa/Fullerton/Vegas. At least they’re a bit more diversified. Some old guy spilled a drink on my arm, and proceeded to rub my arm to get it off. I already felt pretty awk inside, so for him to do that made me feel even more awk. He’s like the age of my brother. Plz do not feel up on me if I do not want you to. I’m probably over analyzing but eww. They play edm and hip hop. The security guards always go through the areas to make sure they’re clear which is kinda annoying since no one listens. Bathrooms contain two stalls with one sink. I don’t normally dog people, but if you’re taking your sweet ass time while trying to snort some coke, can they at least do it in the stall? Or in the car? There’s free reentry. I needa wash my hands yo!

Overall: It seemed kind of shady looking on the outside because it’s located near nothing and the windows are blacked out with a security guard standing outside, but once you get inside — it’s another world. This place is a mix between a bar/club/lounge. Food & Drinks: Lots of appetizer and alcoholic drinks to pick from! Environment: The place is very inviting and fun. It has a bunch of white couches where you can lounge around and enjoy the music with some friends. The music is AMAZING. I’m tired of listening to house music every time I step into a lounge nowadays, but this place mainly plays Hip Hop on large Flat screens/projectors. There’s a small dance floor where you could get your groove on. However, this can be intimidating to dance since another group of people might be sitting near plus it’s not too dark like a club where you can hide your face either. There’s a full open bar where you can sit as well. I just love the ambiance and lighting in this place. Service: This place has excellent service. I believe it was all ladies when I came, but they were quick to take your drink/food order and also came back to refill many times.
