Holey Moley and Hijinx Hotel Bring Immersive Play to Irvine Spectrum Center
12.19.25
Holey Moley Golf Club and the first-ever U.S. Hijinx Hotel have officially debuted at Irvine Spectrum Center, introducing two bold, immersive entertainment concepts designed for playful competition and social connection.
Holey Moley Golf Club transforms traditional putt-putt into a high-energy, multi-sensory experience. The venue features 27 wildly themed holes set inside neon-lit, immersive spaces that blend pop culture, nostalgia, and playful chaos. Each hole offers a different visual and interactive moment, with throwbacks inspired by the eighties, nineties, and beyond.
With locations across the United States, including Denver, Austin, Houston, San Francisco, Santa Monica, and now Irvine, along with multiple international locations in Australia and New Zealand, Holey Moley has become known for its imaginative approach to mini golf. A full-service bar and restaurant complete the experience, welcoming guests of all ages to enjoy a lively and colorful setting built around the art of play. More information is available at holeymoley.com.
Next door, Hijinx Hotel reimagines entertainment through the lens of hospitality. While not an actual hotel, the venue invites guests to “check in” to a highly designed playground filled with 15 interactive challenge rooms, each presented as a themed hotel space. Every room features a scored game that encourages teamwork, friendly competition, and laughter, making it ideal for date nights, group outings, and celebratory gatherings.
Designed to accommodate all skill levels, the experiences combine practical effects with virtual technology in a whimsical, immersive environment. The venue also includes private karaoke lounges and Suite 404, a speakeasy-style bar and restaurant that adds an elevated social element. As its first U.S. location, Hijinx Hotel at Irvine Spectrum Center offers a distinctly original destination for playful, high-energy entertainment.

Katsuya Century City Debuts Festive Holiday Menu for December Dining
12.15.25
Katsuya Century City is stepping into the holiday season with a limited-time menu that feels tailor-made for festive nights out, from post-shopping dinners to Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve celebrations.
Fresh off its July 2025 reimagining, the iconic Japanese dining brand has entered a new era at Westfield Century City, blending the warmth longtime guests love with a modern, design-forward energy. Nearly 20 years after redefining Los Angeles’ approach to contemporary Japanese cuisine, Katsuya’s refreshed flagship pairs a re-envisioned menu with a striking Rockwell Group-designed space that balances Japanese craftsmanship with a clean, minimalist aesthetic.
From December 8 through December 31, Katsuya Century City is offering holiday specials that elevate the season with rich flavors and celebratory flair:
• Smoked Duck Breast Nabe Udon with lotus root and shiitake mushrooms
• Spicy Lobster Miso Soup
• Surf & Turf Roll with seared wagyu sashimi, shrimp tempura, snow crab, avocado, truffle ponzu, myoga, and shiso
• Strawberry Yuzu French 75 with fresh strawberries, yuzu, vodka, and Champagne or Prosecco
Located in the heart of one of Los Angeles’ most vibrant shopping and dining destinations, Katsuya Century City is an easy choice for holiday dining roundups over the next few weeks. It is a place where legacy meets what’s next, and where a festive meal feels right at home in one of LA’s most enduring restaurant brands.
