L shaped bar with unique bar top lit from below & large # of table seating, many with harbor views

First time there for our office holiday event. Beautiful scenery, location, atmosphere, pleasant and super friendly staff, the most delicious food I've ever had, superb drinks, just everything. Hats off to Ari, Torrie, Effie, James, Ryan and all staff that assisted, I can't say enough. Thank you!

Beware, prices have gone up by $5-7.
Yes, food is good. Our waiter was nice and calm. View is good if you get the window tables.

First time dining at this restaurant for my friend's birthday. Loved the view and the ambiance. We did have noisy and probably drunk customers behind us - that part was distracting lol. I also was a fan of the service. Our waiter was great as well as all of the staff. We stayed until closing time! We had the lobster risotto (amazing by the way!), oysters, Chilean sea bass and lamb. There was plentiful amount of lobster in the risotto dish. Very filling and highly recommend. We also got truffle mashed potatoes and asparagus for sides. These were decent but I wasn't blown away.

We had a mixture of desserts but the cheesecake was my personal favorite! Tiramisu was also good. The food was super flavorful!

overall two thumbs up! We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves!

We had an amazing Thanksgiving dinner here. The best Lemon Drop Martini I've ever had. The service was impeccable and the dining room was beautiful. We'll be back for sure.

We used one of their private event spaces for our engagement celebration with family and friends of 18 people. The space was very private, the wait staff was very professional, timely, and friendly, and the catering food was excellent. Highly recommend the Winery!

Great ambiance. Staff is fabulous; professional, courteous, and timely. We had swordfish and veggies. Great meal and duper healthy! Go there anytime for a wonderful experience.

Their steak here, ufff delicious! And not to mention the beautiful boat background, perfect at sunset.

TLDR: Was fine for a one time visit but wouldn't recommend to a friend/go again. It's definitely catered for an older crowd, the only people who looked like they were in their 30s were there with their parents. Food was okay and ambiance was loud.

Truly a great restaurant. We had a company event for 12 in a private room overlooking the water. They had a large, open window for a perfect view, with heaters and blankets available to compensate for the cool air. All of the options on the limited menu were exceptional - lamb, filet, and shrimp/scallops. Wine and cocktails were exceptional. Limited beer menu. Definitely recommend the creme brulee'!

I was there for a private event. The venue was beautiful, service was great. We had a set menu for the event and the food was delicious.
I had the prime New York Steak it was perfectly cooked it came with asparagus and black Truffle mashed potatoes which was delicious (I want to say it was the best bite of the night for me)
Desert was great too we had the mixed seasonal berry bar.

Great food with an amazing view! Employees were extremely friendly and accommodating! The venison was good and the creme brulee was excellent.

Nice ambience, good service.
Food.desirable, some dishes very good, some lack attention. The special Sea Bass was cooked unevenly.
Beignetts too dry and on the hard side. Tiramissu not really a tiramissu, change the name. Best dont order dessert.
Basically the only thing enjoyable for dinner were the pork belly lollipos.
Now, if you are in the mood for a glass or two of wine, great selection.its a great place, enjoy the nice bay view.

Christina was the best server. Salmon with tomato basil and asparagus plus seafood tower. Birthday boy had lamb chops with blue cheese crust. Food was phenomenal but we'll be back for Christina's server and attentiveness

Beautiful view. Great food and atmosphere. Good selection of gluten free food. Have a fantastic gluten free chocolate cake.

Honestly… for the price this place is over rated. I had the crab legs and they were tiny legs. The food is decent but not worth the inflated price.

Great food and service! We got the seafood tower, wagu ribeye special, and the chicken. Definitely would recommend!

Incredible experience! I don’t think it hurt that we were sitting with a large group that ordered a lot of wine and champagne. We had great dinner (highly recommend short ribs) and fantastic live music. Beautiful place and great staff.

Excellent. Service was, very good from hostess to bartender to server. Was ther to impress cluetsxand they got the job done.

An incredible fine dining experience on the water in the Newport Beach Marina. It's actually a place where people cellar/store their wine. Everything was done to perfection!
