Welcome to The Cut Irvine, where elevated food meets neighborhood energy. Tucked in Irvine just minutes from John Wayne Airport, we've become a local favorite for those seeking the best handcrafted burgers, handcarved sandwiches in Irvine, a brunch that actually delivers, and a vibe that feels just right — whether you're flying solo or bringing the whole crew.

This isn't fast food. It's food crafted fast, the right way.We grind our beef fresh in-house. We make our dishes from scratch. Every bun is baked fresh, daily. No preservatives. No shortcuts. No compromises. Just honest food done with skill and heart.

Whether you're joining us for bottomless brunch in Irvine, an after-work cocktail, or just craving something unforgettable, you've made The Cut — and that means something around here.

The Cut wasn't always a restaurant. In fact, when we tried to open, we were turned down — told our dream didn't fit the mold. So, we hit the streets instead. In 2014, The Cut began as a humble food truck, serving up scratch-made burgers in parking lots across Orange County. And you know who believed in us first?

Irvine.

You lined up in the heat. You brought your friends. You kept coming back. And because this city showed up for us, we promised never to stop showing up for you — with food that never cuts corners and flavor that never plays it safe.

Today, our Irvine location is more than just home base — it's the heart of who we are. Still scratch. Still bold. Still handcrafted. Just in a bigger kitchen.

We're proud to be one voted, by the people, as the best gourmet burger spot in all of Orange County here in Irvine— and even prouder to say: this is where it all started.
