Restaurants near Upper Newport Bay Ecological Reserve

A++++ Last night was my second visit, and it will not be my last. We requested the bar area. It was perfect for my two sons. It was her first visit.. I appreciate that the restaurant has different seating areas that you can try out and decide which is best. Food was amazing. Scallops and Chilean Sea bass wee cooked to perfection. My son’s medium + rib eye was right on point. We both wish they would offer the Porter house option.  Their cookies and cream gelato cake was a perfect ending.  I believe our waitress had too many tables,therefore it wasn’t the service level i experienced on my first visit.  definitely the best seafood and steakhouse. I believe in Orange County.

Amazing vibe! The best food and drinks. Make a Rez.

The food is A-maz-ing! We had the halibut and the pork tenderloin! I want to try Everything on the menu! The almond cake is one of the best desserts I've ever had! (Warning- it is sweet, but absolute perfection!) All of the waiters are very attentive, and made our experience fabulous! We will be definitely returning!!!!

Such a great atmosphere!! So fun even for a Monday night it was busy which we loved. Food was excellent. Mini French dips are to die for. Great drinks great service!! 11/10 highly recommend grabbing dinner or drinks and appetizers so so great!!!!!

We sat outside in a very cozy, quiet, comfortable booth. The view is amazing. The service incredible, our server was so attentive and gave great recommendations as it was our first time. The burrata was so good. We ordered two of them. The oysters incredible -Kumamoto’s. Great wine list. Husband and I shared the burger incredible. Daughter had Chinese chicken salad and loved it very much. Service was perfect, food delicious and we are so excited to go back!
