Stressful is the word that travel evokes now, but the one thing I can always depend on to take some of the edge off is Vino Volo. It makes getting to the airport early worth it. The wine selection is outstanding and the food is fresh and varied. Cheers!!

Had a layover in Santa Ana, and decided to stop by Vino Volo.
The two of us hard:
-flight tiny bubbles $21
-modern times IPA $9
-butchers board $28
Drinks were ok. Board was below average. Not a whole lot, and quite pricey.
Service was a bit nonexistent when they were not very busy.
Overall, ok spot. Pricey end, but ambience is a bit nicer and more quiet.

Fancy joint for an airport restaurant. I like the little cards they give you as coasters that explain what you are drinking since I usually have no idea the details besides the name. The service was perfect, very friendly and not too often or too sparse. The artisan plate was awesome. It reminds of a European breakfast kind of. Meats, cheeses, some good bread with jam, fruit.. A nice variety. You can try each against a single wine glass or flight of three. Slightly pricey (although the flight is on-point) but it is in the airport and worth it to me since it seems like best place to relax inside the secure zone. Smooth jazz drowns out most of the airport backround noise adding to the experience. If you sit on the back row there is a nice 'view' of the baggage claim and security checkpoint from the second floor. Sounds a bit funny but if you like people watching it's good spot and feels open regardless.
Price per person
$50–100
