It has a very nice ambiance, very nice waitresses and very good food. It’s an ideal place for a light meal. We had the Charcrudite, which is excellent to share (a mixture of charcuterie and ceudités), smoked salmon, chopped salad. All of them very good. What I missed was a good beer. Worth to come back.
Hidden gem in Newport. Honestly, had expectation of it being just fine but all the food was incredible, atmosphere was great (not stuffy), and service was kind and quick. Can’t say enough good things. Much better then the majority of restaurants in town and cheaper. Steak was incredible and duck fat potatoes blew my mind.
10 stars, and I don't dish (get it dish😋) that out often.
WOW... fantastic, I can't stop raving about it.
We tried the Empanada appetizer, and it was a hit. The pastry was perfectly crispy, and the filling was incredibly flavorful.
The chicken pot pies, were freaking amazing with creamy filling and a flaky crust that was spot on.
Moving on to the salads, fresh and delicious, with well-paired dressings that had unreal flavors.
The pork chops were cooked to perfection, tender and juicy, and the glaze was just mouthwatering.
But what truly made the evening outstanding was the impeccable service. The staff was attentive, friendly, funny and knowledgeable about the menu, making us feel right at home.
Thank you for having us, we'll done!!!
Delicious salads. The roasted chicken is great as well. Moist and filling.
Amazingly great food! Happy upbeat server took great care of us. Had the Bertha cocktail which was pleasantly refreshing. The salads are huge (fed 5 and took some home) the ribs were fall off the bone tender. Appetizers were great as well. Definitely will return and take new and old friends.
Ambiance = Great. Service = Great. Wine = Great.
Food = Good, not that great. And specifically "not great" relative to the value.
Our example is date night for two: shared app, two glasses (total not each) and two entrées = $240 out the door. Garlic Meatballs were delicious 🤤, duck fat fries were mealy 😢. Wife got the pork chop = good. I got the filet mignon = good.
I don't necessarily expect a filet to be 'cheap' but I do expect it to be worth it - we cook a better one at home 😬 - kinda hope for the opposite when you're going out.
I am curious about some of the SoCal soul food options they have, but as I look for future date nights, if I'm going to spend $200-$250, I'm probably choosing a different spot. 🤙🏼
OMG 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 Amazing 🤩 I LOVE everything we had here 🙏 I had this place on my list for months 😱 I wish I came sooner. Pizza and Sandwiches are the best in OC! Actually one of the best I ever had. JUST DO YOURSELF A FAVOR and tryout this place. The amazing service and food makes this place my favorite OC restaurant 👌
It wasn’t my first time , unfortunately every single time we have issue with service and staff. This is my first time to write my comment . We had reservation and arrived earlier let them know and was waiting outside another couple came and they checked in and get inside to the bar ! First table became available they sat them first and then were sorry that we made mistake! I wish the manager tone and attitude was different but she was so rude and dare like we made mistake now you have to wait you can order your drink or snack while you are waiting!! We ordered 2 types of wine bottles and she came with different one which was more expensive because they ran out off those. Flat bread was burnt . I asked for few paper napkin snd she just brought me 1.
Overall all the server including manager (specially manager) were so racist . I was thinking this is my assumption but my mom said the same thing!! I had this feeling every time but never got it serious until this time!!
The atmosphere was Super noisy ,I just wasted my Sunday afternoon and my money. What a shame They just get worse over the time for service and food!
