Irvine Village Market is a convenient mini-market located within the Village apartment complexes. It offers a variety of daily groceries, including produce, dairy, and different meats. The market also provides ready-to-eat cooked food, such as salads, sandwiches, and rotating hot meal options. While the food quality can be hit or miss, the service is generally friendly and accommodating. The market is particularly popular during lunchtime, as it is situated near a busy corporate center in Irvine. Customers can expect to wait up to 15 minutes for their orders, as there is usually only one person serving the food. However, the market's Thursday and Friday night "Kebab Nights" are a highlight, with a lively atmosphere, a DJ, and residents enjoying drinks and food. Overall, Irvine Village Market is a practical option for local residents, offering a range of grocery items and prepared meals, with occasional standout offerings like the Cuban sandwich, pesto chicken sandwich, and pesto/Hawaiian pizzas.
Nice little market within The Village apartment complex. Hot deli. Nice scotch!

Exceptional and unexpected selection of food and Liquor and wine products. Super convenient for those in Irvine near John Wayne. Walkable from many places or quick in and out if driving over. Found a bottle of one of our favorite sake and bought it on the spot. Friendly staff. Say hi to Stan.
