Great views of the surrounding area. It’s taller then most of the sure buimsings,

Its always lovely to visit here, lots of crowds on weekends and holidays, ample parking facilities, you will get all kind of options be it shopping or dining.

Beautiful, chilled meeting place and retail mall. Family friendly. Highly recommended.

Fabulous giant wheel. I took a picture of it with long exposure and the result was speechless. You can see the picture below

This place is great. It has a very beautiful views and a relaxing back yard. Nice shops and cafes. It took me around 30 minutes to go all the way around. I definitely recommend it to LA visitors.

The first thing i noticed about this place is that its clean and well maintained

The new area m, where the old Macys was looks fantastic. The ice skating ring for Holiday season is awesome and the Christmas tree is the best with the hi tech lighting and the jingles!

Nice views at night. Especially when the wheel is lit up. You go around about 3 times, so make sure you have enough time. Be careful to keep all body parts inside. Its pretty scary how close some metal parts moving fast pass by. Hopefully, nobody gets decapitated.

Well organized and nice ride. Also 5 dollar is not as expensive as you expect in Irvine. Sometimes a very long wait though!

This place is nice, We had a really greatime time with my family and my friends

Jordan at the sale booth is SUPER friendly and nice !Since today is my friends daughters birthday, so I sign up the kids birthday club for her and told Jordan. He helped her with a birthday badge and coupon for free dessert !Thank you, Jordan, for making this little girls birthday wish come true and a great experience in USA...this will definitely help the USA and CHINAs relationship in the future, too! Hahaha !!! God bless America !

Fun spot for the kiddos to listen to music while burning some energy!

I have been taking my son on this since he was 7 months old. He will be 2 in 2 months. Sometimes he loves it, sometimes hes a bit afraid..but it is always a lovely bonding experience for us. And with him being free, $5 is a small price to see nice views and ride an iconic wheel in a legendary mall . We rode for the first time at night this holiday season. You could see the Christmas tree, ice skating rink and more! It was crowded, so we sat on it a long time as they got everyone off. That part was longer than the actual ride...thats my only complaint and reason for not giving 5 stars. Bring your family or your sweetie or your bestie and take a spin on the Big Wheel!

Irvine Spectrum Center is an awesome place. Truly a family place. It has almost every facility available like shopping, food, theater and childrens playing area. Other facilities like parking and rest rooms are also available.

Fun at night and only $5 per person. I recommend it, theres a free kids climbing set nearby and a carousel as well.

A favorite place to get a great view from high. And an even better place to come train pups. Tons of distractions. Excellent low seats. And the big fake grass area. Furfect combination

The staff was super sweet and friendly. Our little girl had a blast.

Really nice place to hang out! I tend to go early on the day as it tends to get packed at night. There is plenty of seating along with a glass area.

Someone got kicked off for throwing paper. Wheel Did two rounds but felt like it kept stopping. Its 5$ per person children under 36 inches free w paying adult. Good experience for kids or those who dont get anxiety from heights too much. Did it for the kids.

Nice parking, lots of Restaurant s & shopss free WiFi & Toilette s

I enjoyed riding the ferris wheel. The place is really clean and has a lot of spots to sit on, they also have a mini park.

Slow mover, but what a view from the top of the wheel. Just a fun little area to sit and hang out. A great way to rest for a few before you get back out and shop!

I didnt ride the giant wheel, bit my kids did they loved it. Its $5 a person its not a bad deal. I thought it would be $10 plus but its a deal for $5 bucks. It too them on there turns, that was a good ride.

This is a really cool attraction and I loved the ferris wheel.

Gotta at least go to the ferris wheel once on the Irvine Spectrum. Great views at night. Really great place to end the night with hanging out with friends. *One of those dating spots I would recommend* heh

A beautifully designed open air shopping center.

Very nice place

Fabulous design ..Happy Valentines Day ️

Great place during Christmas time.

This giant wheel adds so much fun and vibes to Spectrum. Its changing lights adds a grand view to whole city. Riding the giant wheel itself is a lot of fun; it is short and expensive but feels good to have a peek to the surrounding area while at top

Quiet and relaxing. There isnt a whole lot to see except rooftops. You really dont get a better view of the mountains on the wheel that you would on the ground

Good view of pretty much everything in the Spectrum. Ticket for ferris wheel is like $5 each, but a group of 6 is like $27 ($3 savings).

Just $5 for 3 rounds. Fun ride!

Lots of shops and places to walk around.Great for the kids. Attractions include a Ferris Wheel and ice skating rink in the winter. Good for window shopping

Love the Irvine Spectrum. Great backyard get-out-of-the- house meet-up with peer groups location for simple social gatherings and a good time. Free parking (except valet) accessible to consumer shops, eateries/dining, light entertainment, amusement park aparatus, and family fun. Have a blast keeping your visit informally delightful. Suggest advance contact to investigate specialty shops, galleries, etc.

I am a huge fan of the giant wheel at the Irvine spectrum. I think it is such a unique touch to a shopping center. It elevates the shopping center from a regular outdoor mall to a whole new category. The cool thing is that you dont even have to ride it to appreciate this majestic structure. However, if you are like me and cant resist the temptation of riding it. The ride is completely affordable and the experience you will leave will be special. I did it with my fiancé as one of our first dates when we first met and to this day is a dear memory for both of us.

Its OK. Thought it was a bit more upscale but once you get in there, its just like any mall. They do have good places to eat, so that was good. But it was crowded and not very clean. You can valet in the structure so thats a plus. Otherwise, its just a mall.

The giant wheel wheel was AWSOME, specially because my twins two year old girls went on with me. Lines arent long at all.

This is a nice place to go with the family. The ferris wheel is cool and fun for kids.

Slow mover, but what a view from the top of the wheel. Just a fun little area to sit and hang out. A great way to rest for a few before you get back out and shop!

A true family affair. Your kids will love all the amenities aimed at them and you arent left behind also. There is something for everyone here, truly.

Its fun for kids. You get to see the mountains from top. Overall its fine, nothing to write home about though.

Only $5 per person and it is a nice little adventure.

I been on this ride a couple of times and is pretty cool. Is not too expensive and it takes around 15 minutes to go all the way around. From the top is a nice view and great for photos.

I love the Irvine Spectrum. Its so beautiful and lovely, its like being in paradise. I definitely know when Im not in Irvine because the scenery is not the same paradise feeling. Thank you Irvine Spectrum for being so beautiful.

Beautiful shopping center with great shops and entertainment for kids.

Please is so pretty and nice.

A cool offering in a outdoor mall setting that can be seen from afar, however the lighting effect is often not functioning properly which kind of make it seem like they didnt know how to fix or care to do so.

Good and have comfortable seats

Lovely experience! All very clean and most stores employees are so nice!

Fun as always. Only downside now is the parking structure next to the theater being converted to valet on the entire 1st level, the flow on the entire first level is very awkward and unnecessary. Much more profit-driven than what it used to be... Make you wonder if theyre trying to make up for all the empty storefronts?

Took the kids on the Ferris wheel for the first time. Fun and cheap.

The view ️ #girls night - mommys mini

Great location smoothe and fun for the kids.

Just a fun little area to sit and hang out.

A nice place for kids and adults to take a break from shopping. The ride is decent length and affordable.Dont fall or even mention you were hurt. Our 5yo granddaughter tripped and cried about her knee. The workers told us we could not leave until security checked her out. She was obviously fine. The was no abrasion, she had long pants on, and by the time the EMT showed up, she was running and playing. They looked at us like we were nuts and could not figure out why the call. I guess CYA runs deep. Where we are from you get up and keep moving.

One of the most beautiful and amazing malls in Irvine, CA.

Slow and goes around 3 times, but very enjoyable, fun and relaxing for kids and/or adults.

Lovely place to hang out. The place has some very good American brands and a lot of them are on sale. It also has a ton of restaurants and place for kids to chill out so the parents can shop in peace!

Great amount of things to do. The band playing that Saturday night was really good. We had a really good time there!

The service is great. If eyes were closed and you simply pointed to your order it would be delicious. Also, Chris the manager takes great pride in the restaurant.

Awesome outdoor mall. Pet friendly. Lots of shopping and dining options at all price points.

108ft tall. $5 dollars to ride. Great lights for night shots. Very nice.

Love this place. Well maintained and the recent renovations are great.

Beautiful place with ice skating rink at the bottom.

Large outdoor shopping mall with lots of eating, clothing, and other store options. A few rides/play area for kids and a theater too. A great place to spend the day shopping and lookin around.

Well laid out. Nice places to eat at reasonable prices. Clean and easy to get in and out. Tried Urban Seoul for lunch-very nice and great service.

Great shopping centre and good for families

We love coming here to shop or for an afternoon meal and family time. This place is great for everyone

Strawberry iced tea with Boba at Hello Kitty cafe and white chocolate pistachio cupcake from Cinderella cakes

So many great stores here and loads of stuff for kids to do. I like to visit even when Im not shopping.

Organized and nice staff. But they should try to smile a little.

Great place to shop! It was easy to find parking. A good variety of shops for everyone! They have restaurants and places to buy a cup of coffee.They also have a movie theater. This is a great place to take your kids!

Its nice to go around enjoy the ferriswheel but and among other things like shopping, movies and food. And theres an theres area for kids to enjoy...

Always a great ambiance to hang out with family and friends.

The giant wheel is well worth the price! Infact it was only $5 per person, which I was shocked about. I thought they would be charging more than 10. Its a great little ride during your shopping at the spectrum.

Clean and fun place to hang at night

Great shopping center!!

I was super excited to ride the Ferris wheel. It goes slow so it’s good for people who are sensitive to motion sickness. It costs $5.00 without tax for a single ticket. The ride went for 3 whole loops before it came to an end. You can see the hills and some mountains of Orange County. It was kind of cloudy when I rode it, but you could still see the hills, the 405, and 5 freeway. The staff was friendly and greeted people with smiles and made small talk as you waited to get on. It can get chilly when you reach the top, but I guess it was windy on this day. It’s a good activity to do on a clear sunny day if you want to catch some amazing views.

Its supposed to go around 3x. Im pretty sure it was only twice. Nice views. Slow, steady and nice. The lights on the wheel are really cool.

Line is slow & long but one of the sweetest places at the Spectrum to take a look at the view, shift your perspective and relax with a friend. Also $5?!! Wow.

Great time of year to visit the Irvine spectrum

A fun attraction at the Spectrum! Lots of fun activities for children, with a new interesting climbing structure. Plenty of parking available.

Went just for the Ferris Wheel. My boys loved it!

We love to visit this place, They have good restaurants, Dave and Busters and Giant Wheel etc.

Fun place to be. Lots of restaurants. Some times live music

It a great place to just lay back and relax. A bunch of fun stuff for the kids to.

I would give it 5 stars but they dont let you hold your INFANT baby on your lap. They have to sit down next to you.

So there is a reason why this is the Giant Wheel, is there not? Yes, there is. Lets hit this giant wheel together with all your friends and family. Why not? It cannot hurt. It is fun and it will definitely improve your skills in a social setting. Like you get up on the wheel and feel, like, oh Jesus is a thing.

Very convenient center. Went up the ferris wheel which was cool i could see everything for miles

Great place for families. They have a movie theater, tons of stores, and great places to eat.

Cool place the Ferris wheel is awesome.

One of the best malls ever built. Its easy to spend the day here as theres plenty to see and do. Shopping is upscale but not impermissably so. Dining options range from Panda Express to Zovs and Bistango. Theres a movie theater, a ferris wheel, and a carousel, plus some great play equipment for smaller kids. Theres Dave and Busters for video games, beer and wings. Theres also live music on the weekends, free to all. Wonderful day trip.

Amazing place ...one stop solution for all needs

My family love to shop here every time we visit Los Angeles

Awesome views for pretty cheap. A good date night idea

Lovely place to people watch and have a Ive stroll after a bite to eat. And of course for shopping!

Its alright. You get to go around three times. Our plan was to check out the Irvine Spectrum from a higher view but the place is well shaded so we didnt really see much. It was a nice quick ride with the kids.

I love the ride and not too fast. Its perfect

Very nice mall family oriented I enjoyed it
