Amazing food and atmosphere. I used to come here when i was younger and just went for dinner last night. Delicious drinks, the best zucchini fries I've ever had, fish and chips on point. wasn't too pricey at all, I would definitely come here again and again and again. The service was top notch!���
We go about twice a week to the oyster bar. Excellent seafood and tacos! Always a Happy Hour special. The view from the deck is lovely. The service good. We highly recommend this place!
Wow! We drove up to Newport for a day trip from San Diego for some whale watching and hopefully some really good seafood. This place did not disappoint! We would drive an hour and a half just to eat here again. Everything was just so fresh. The service was great and the location can't be beat. So happy we found this place. Definitely going back soon.
The food & drink was great!! I had the Cajun Salmon Taco and fries. With the cajun seasoning added it was delish! I did not capture a pic of the taco but it was great. The Cadillac Margarita was also great and the Caesar salad was good just ask for extra dressing on the side.
Our waiter Ramon was okay. He was a little impatient and bit rude at times. He got the manager when we never requested for the manager. However, the manager Carlos was fantastic and very helpful. I don't mind returning.
UPDATE: W returned. The chowder don’t disappoint. Yummy! We ate upstairs in the oyster bar with a view of the water. We ordered several items off the bar menu. They were all good. The chowder was excellent. Service was good.
Great service. Food is very reasonably priced considering the location. Service was great and attentive.
Charbroiled oysters are the best I've had in awhile. So fresh and delicious. Service was awesome, our food and drinks came fast and stayed full. Very laid back place on the water with great happy hour prices all day.
We went for the Harbor Boat Parade and dinner. It was a very enjoyable, not rushed evening.
I'd come for the harbor view of the ferries from the balcony. Wouldn't expect much from tourist places. BUTTT their weekday happy hour and specials are insane. Really nice for a place with a view. Great location for strolling down souvenir shops to Balboa fun zone with games.
Happy Hour on Weekdays:
- Monday-Tuesday 11:30am-8pm, and Wednesday-Friday 11:30am-6pm.
- Drinks HH is all day.
- Food specials per weekday from 6pm-8pm (what they call extended happy hour).
So far the non-happy hour order of appetizer sampler is something I'd recommend.
The food is okay, I order calamari tempura and was good, I guess I have try other calamari’s and they have better taste , service was great .
I would rate that place more than 5 stars if possible, we did not have any reservations on a Sunday afternoon which is obviously a busy time of the day but yet we were welcomed and accommodated in less than 10 minutes and probably in the best place on the upper deck patio where you can see the awesome view and enjoy the nice music, the whole vibe is outstanding, the drinks and the food are good but the service and the place complimented the whole experience. Prices are reasonable for such a place in balboa island, portions are good but definitely could be better, the food is fresh and taste good, the place is very authentic and the decorations and wall mount pictures add to the general ambience, it is highly recommended specially of you are more into seafood. We tried the fish and ships, pasta with white sauce and salad and it was great
The atmosphere and the view are why you come here! Service is ok, not bad, a little slow and if you get the happy hour food it’s fine. I used to love the ceviche but last I had it, it was a tiny serving for $12, not worth it any more.
