The Scene – Originally opened as a cannery in 1921 and turned into a restaurant in 1973 (refurbished in 1999), the Cannery holds a prominent spot in the Newport Beach history books. The main draws are the waterfront dining, outdoor patio tables, fresh seafood and lively bar scene. Professionals and 30-something couples dominate, lapping up the yacht-heavy Newport Beach dock-scene, viewable from both the upstairs and lower dining rooms. Neatly pressed, friendly servers offer expert advice and wine-pairing suggestions. – – The Food – Steaks, chops and seafood anchor this…

Can The Cannery That Can't...
by ClydeLily at Citysearch
Can't get it right or treat you right that is. After selecting the Cannery for a special treat with out of town family guests, we were sorely dissappointed. Lousy seating, poor service and a manager who shouldn't be allowed out in public. We were seated on the patio outside overlooking the picturesque Newport Harbor and the wedding party from hell...or close to there. Noisy, obnoxious, drunk and the restaurant staff should have warned us when we arrived. Instead we were virtually part of the "party" that surrounded our table on two sides. After complaining to the staff, our level of service dropped below that of eating alone at home. When we asked to speak to the manager, who was busy serving food to the wedding party (get real), he was patronizing at best and demonstrated incompetence at it's worst. Think twice, okay, three times before spending your money or your patience at this overpriced, understaffed and mediocre establishment.
- Pros: It's not hell.
- Cons: Lousy Service and Uncaring Staff

Horrible service - overcooked loster!!
by seeshelly at Citysearch
The lobster was WAY overcooked. Our service was Way WORSE. We were ignored. Had to ask for everything. Had to ask for water in our glasses that sat empty forever, had to ask to order our entrees, had to ask for more drinks. had to ask for more bread. It really was sad. We were visting from Vegas where we like going out to eat in great restuarants, and the service was SOOO disappointing. Then our Lobster came and we coudl barely scrap it out of the shell it was so overcooked and the steak was really weird tasting too. Would NEVER recommend it! The manager was horrible too!!!
- Pros: the atmosphere is OK
- Cons: HORRIBLE SERVICE
