Great place for excellent food and service. Went for our wedding anniversary (49 yrs) and couldn’t have asked for a better meal. Even met Johnny the wonderful chef behind the tasty offerings. Our server Matthew was fantastic – offered recommendations and answered all of our questions with spot on knowledge. The cocktails were great, the Brussels sprouts out of this world. The miso black cod and the jumbo scallops were delicious. Ended the meal with the salted caramel bread pudding with a bourbon cream sauce. Will definitely be back!

Didn’t know what to expect, but wow what an amazing experience! Beautiful view of the bay, and we could even see sea lions from our table. We started with the delicious Brussels sprout appetizer perfectly cooked and full of flavor.

For entrées, we had the catch of the day (Chinook salmon with spinach and gnocchi) beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. The lasagna bolognese was rich and comforting, and the chicken sandwich with fries hit the spot. The menu truly has something for everyone.

We finished with the Marion Berry Cobbler topped with ice cream the perfect ending to a great meal.

The view, the service, and the food were all outstanding. Highly recommend, and we’ll definitely be back!

We like coming here for our anniversary each year, for the delicious food and the beautiful view!!
They have a nice assortment of mocktails, too.
Highly recommend the creme brulee Cinnamon Toast Crunch to finish off your meal!

A note: come for the flavor, but be advised that the portions are moderate.
If you choose an appetizer and a dessert, you’re likely to leave full and happy!

The food was so fresh and so tasty! Our server was amazing too, very attentive and made the atmosphere feel so warm. We came in on a busy Sunday around 1 pm, we were sat immediately and really enjoyed our time here. Food was pricey but for a good reason. The freshness and quality were 10/10. You don’t want to miss this place!!

Amazing experience here! I forgot that the sea lions are right outside the dining room, so it was amazing to watch them while we ate. Also, 10/10 would recommend the Dungeness crab Mac and cheese – it is delicious!

My sister and I spent the afternoon wandering Newport and decided to pop in for dinner—zero expectations, zero research, fully vibing. We went in blind and honestly? Best decision of the day.

The place was cozier than expected, but the décor was cute, the energy was lively, and for a Tuesday around 6:30pm, it was pleasantly busy (which already felt like a good sign). Our waitress? Bubbly, friendly, and knew the menu. We love a professional with personality.

I sipped on the Basil Jalapeño Margarita—fresh, balanced, and just spicy enough to keep things interesting. My sister went with the Rico Guave (if memory serves), which she clearly enjoyed because the glass didn’t survive long.

Now… the star of the evening: the Local Dungeness Crab Mac & Cheese. Spectacular. Dare I say the best mac & cheese I’ve had in my lifetime, so far. Real, generous chunks of crab—no scavenger hunt required—rich, creamy, and perfectly executed.

My sister ordered the Tuna Melt and even after stealing bites of my mac (as sisters do), she confirmed it was fresh, creamy, and downright delicious. And here’s how you know it was good: my sister never finishes a meal. Ever. She lives for a to-go box.

We left with full bellies… and NO leftovers.

10/10 would wander in blindly again.

Awesome views of the bay and clean modern interior compared to some the old run down restaurants in the area. I ordered the seared scallops. Great flavor, but there was no sear at all… The crème brûlée wasn’t torched right before ordering, so the sugar top got a little mushy. Server was very nice but took her a while to get back to me for ordering another drink. Overall good choice, but not great.

Second visit. Got oysters on half shell, seafood pasta, and seafood curry. Server was great. Food was good too. No complaints

The miso black cod was so tender and soft and a blast of flavor. Melt in your mouth good. Great view of the water! Nice Server. Unfortunately, the seafood rigatoni leaves a lot to be desired and was such a contrast to the cod. It was bland, little to no seasoning, and the seafood itself was small unseasoned shrimp, one teeny tiny scallop and a few chunks of overcooked fish. Great cocktails, and atmosphere- food is fantastic if you order right dish.

As a picky eater, I don’t really like going out often. It’s rare I eat out and enjoy a meal as much as I do my own food. The seared jumbo scallops are good but the thing that keeps me coming back, raving to all my friends, and salivating over is the green pea risotto with orange balsamic glaze. I’ve never tasted something so amazing. Delicious every time.
It’s also fun that the sea lion dock is right there.
Although, I’ve never had particularly great service. One time the service was very subpar, but this damn green pea risotto is so good, I still recommend the place to friends.
It’s pretty busy in mid January in the off season. I can only imagine how busy it is during peak tourist season. Definitely make a reservation

It was perfect for a dinner date. The cevieche was delicious and my mocktail made me drool. Oscar, our waiter was phenomenal and we couldn’t have been more pleased.
