Horrible customer service

by grubmang

Great place with great quality food however its not the only place in Newport Beach you can get good quality food plus customer service. The customer service was absolutely disgusting.

• Pros: Example: best croissants in town
• Cons: What are the drawbacks?

Great Experience!!

by Snowci

My boyfriend and I had dinner there our last night in Newport Beach and it was one of the best resturants that we have been to. We went earlier in the day to put our name on the list since it was a Saturday night and when we arrived they had our table ready for us. The food was really delicious!! My boyfriend ordered the prime rib which was juicy and really good with the mashed potatoes!! I had the roast chicken with mashed potatoes and it was simply yummy. We shared a ceasar salad and even that was really good!! We had a really great time and the waitstaff was really friendly!! I can't wait to go back to Orange County and have dinner here again!!

• Pros: Great food and service
• Cons: loud, sort of expensive

not a fun ride

by grrbear

After a longer wait than the hostess had estimated, we were seated at a nice booth for an equally long wait for service. This would have all been acceptable if the food had been as good as touted, but we found the chicken and lamb to be utterly bland, and side dishes uninteresting, except for the spanish rice which was overly peppered. The only defense of the chicken is it was not dry, but otherwise it was quite ordinary.

The whole experience was a bit like a Disneyland ride - an hour-long wait for a few minutes of fun, except in this case not a ride I'd do again.

• Pros: nice waiting area where they serve drinks
• Cons: food not worth the wait
