    Service and food was amazing. Waitstaff checked on us frequently. Restaurant was very accommodating to all of our needs. They stored birthday cake in freezer for a few hours until it was ready to be served. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and will definitely be back!

    I have my ladies holiday luncheon there every year now for the last several years. It is just a fabulous environment. The food is always delicious and the service is great. They used to have a lunch menu section that was a little reduced in cost. They’ve changed their menu now, so we kind of miss that. But everything was delicious and everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves. It’s a wonderful environment, looking out at the boats in the ocean.

    A++++ Last night was my second visit, and it will not be my last. We requested the bar area. It was perfect for my two sons. It was her first visit.. I appreciate that the restaurant has different seating areas that you can try out and decide which is best. Food was amazing. Scallops and Chilean Sea bass wee cooked to perfection. My son’s medium + rib eye was right on point. We both wish they would offer the Porter house option.  Their cookies and cream gelato cake was a perfect ending.  I believe our waitress had too many tables,therefore it wasn’t the service level i experienced on my first visit.  definitely the best seafood and steakhouse. I believe in Orange County.
