Best Casual Restaurants in Newport Beach

Came from Woodland Hills and would do it again. Everything was exceptional. One hint…consider sharing. Portions very generous.

Once again the Beachcomber did not disappoint. You can’t beat the view from anywhere you sit. The beignet’s are a must. Our food order arrived quickly. The crashing waves in the background is a great part of the ambiance. Our waitress Amber was very attentive and thorough. A waiter Hector from previous visits remembered us and stopped by to say hello. Can’t wait to visit again.

Great time at CDM Restaurant. Had their chicken piccata, fillet and a grilled octopus appetiser. The ambiance and food are great. Cocktails are amazing. Be sure to ask if you can check out their secret speakeasy in the basement. Very cool.

It’s magical from the moment you walk in. As you make your way up a gorgeous staircase displaying gilded frames & Grecian statues…. The aesthetic & beautiful RH furniture is definitely a show stopper. As you make your way to the top you are greeted with sweet hostesses and wine bars on either side of you. Food is amazing! We had artichoke & burrata appetizers. So delicious! I always order a cheeseburger, it’s so good! Their salads & rotisserie chicken are yum! Finished the night with the Bananas Foster dessert, it was outstanding!!

Ambience was great (we sat on the patio, there were heaters and a fire pit), our server Jenny was delightful, and the food, both presentation and taste, was wonderful! (We had the truffle fries, steak & tuna sushi, and the molton lava cake.) The patio wasn’t very busy, as it was a Monday night. Everything was top notch, right down to the glass of champagne when we arrived! Love that! We’ll definitely come back again!
