30 new shops and restaurants coming to Irvine Spectrum Center
01.25.18
Irvine Spectrum Center is about to become even more popular. It was just announced that a $200 million expansion will bring 30 new shops and restaurants to the center by mid-2019.
The announcement reveals the first wave of tenants since construction began last year on the 137,000 square-foot area located past the Giant Wheel. This summer, Hello Kitty Café will debut a bar and café.
Other tenants to follow throughout the year include: a two-story H&M; cult-followed 85°C Bakery Café; our favorite OC-born Stance socks; SoCal’s falafel fave Falasophy; Laguna Beach import Gorjana jewelry; Irvine-based BLK Coffee; OC-crafted Afters Ice Cream, LA eye import Perverse Sunglasses, The Denim Lab; SST&C Italian menswear; Aloha-infused Soha Living; Concrete Rose shoe boutique and Robata Wasa for serious sushi.
Skincare, fragrance and makeup mega-destination, Sephora will thrill the beauty obsessed when it opens its Southern California flagship at the center.
