“Hands down the best experience in the surrounding area, by a long shot.Drinks delivered, vibe was right, and food crushed.Don’t skip the Chep Daily Soup, the Honey Butter cake or the Shrimp taquitos.Craig and Austen took the experience next level. ?“

“There are only 14 tables, but the staff were wonderful. The prices demand it but you will get attentive service. And the ambience is spectacular. You get to sit by a dock with water right next to you. It is a very romantic place. They don’t have any loud music which is great. Their wine list is extensive. And with the corkage being $75 may as well try their wines.The cuisine is French, which I love. The scallops were perfect. I did not like the gravy as much as it tasted overly sweet. The pork loin was only OK because it could be more tender and it was a little dry. The brioche bread pudding is good though I make it better. I loved the mushroom soup.“

“We ordered the battered fish tacos and grilled shrimp tacos. Everything was delicious. The wait staff is super friendly and attentive. It was packed in there and almost closing time when we went, but to see all the staff work together and get everyone taken care of quickly and efficiently was cool to watch and experience. The black beans are DELICIOUS! The Zucchini was grilled to perfection. If you haven't tried the grilled corn, do it... you won't regret it! The fries were PERFECT... the crunchiness was uniform on all of them, not a soggy one on the plate!“

“A MUST TRY! Make sure to grab reservations! This restaurant makes it into my top 10, if not top 5 list of best restaurants I've visited. It wasn't any one thing, it was that EVERYTHING was fantastic. The service: the team at Fable & Spirit take the time to give their guests the best experience possible. The cocktails, and the food were all perfectly balanced in their flavors and excellently prepared-- what I loved most was that there were blends of flavors I hadn't experienced together before and they were delightful. I sat at the bar and Blake and his team took the best care of me.- Wood Fired Pizetta: delicious, I'd order again.- Short Ribs: delicious, but likely would not order again- Himachi (seasonal) Sashimi Plate: so fresh and amazing flavors, I'd always order their seasonal Sashimi.- Chasing Perfection Cocktail: Unique and delicious cocktail, would absolutely order again!!!- Callebraut Chocolate Budino: Shockingly delicious. This dessert was a show stopper and unlike any other dessert I've experienced. Would order again.I would love it if this team created a tasting menu experience!!!Fable & Spirit is perfect for date night ❤️.“

“Eddie V's is one of our favorite restaurants that we frequent throughout the year, drawn by their delectable cuisine and unparalleled service. Opting to celebrate our anniversary there on a Tuesday proved to be an excellent choice, as they surpassed our expectations, showering us with attention and care. This establishment holds a special place in our hearts due to the exceptional service provided by both the staff and management. The ambiance exudes positivity, complemented perfectly by the delicious food. Whenever we crave a perfectly tender filet, this is our go-to spot. The crab cakes never disappoint, and recently, we indulged in the exquisite lobster tacos. Despite our inclination to try multiple dishes, we rarely have room for dessert. However, on our anniversary, we were treated to a delightful surprise - the butter cake, both delicious and beautifully presented. It was the perfect ending to our meal. Thank you for crafting a truly memorable anniversary dinner experience. We wholeheartedly recommend Eddie V's for its exceptional food, service, and atmosphere!“

“What a wonderful experience. The macadamia encrusted halibut special was wonderful, but the star of the show was the seafood pasta. We were thinking about it throughout the weekend. The service here is so wonderful. Couldn't recommend this place more if I tried.“

“Select led this place to Celebrate my birthday. Food was good and our server was very helpful and provided us with excellent service. The noise was a little too loud for my liking since is a small place and they crammed a bar in the front entrance of the restaurant. Tables are also too close together and we can hear others' conversations.“

“I recently celebrated my birthday at Duke’s Restaurant in Huntington Beach, and it was nothing short of spectacular! The atmosphere on the bar side where we were seated was vibrant and perfectly complemented the ocean view.Our server, Alicia, was the highlight of our evening. Her attentive and friendly service ensured our night was special. She was constantly checking in on us, making sure we had everything we needed without ever being intrusive.We decided to go with the Friday special, which included a delicious Poki and Pineapple Chicken. Both dishes were fresh, flavorful, and well-presented, capturing the essence of Hawaiian cuisine. The couple of Mai Tais we had were expertly mixed—refreshing and just the right touch of tropical.The Friday night entertainment was a real treat. The Hula dancers and the Hawaiian musician set a festive mood, making us feel like we were on a mini vacation to the islands.Duke’s provided an excellent backdrop for my birthday celebration. Great food, superb service, and entertaining performances made it a memorable evening. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy a slice of Hawaii in Huntington Beach!“

“This place is awesome. Last night was my second time going there. My friend recommended this place to me, because she lives in the area. And every time she recommend something to me or takes me somewhere to eat, it's awesome. The food is unbelievable. The service is friendly and top bar. The drinks are the bomb. The atmosphere is great. I was very happy both times. I would go back again in a minute! And definitely ask James to be your server. He was the best server ever last night. I think I might have had the best filet mignon of my life at this place last night. The grilled lobster is great. The seared scallops are the bomb. I highly recommend it.“

“I’ve been here 5+ times now and it is my my favorite Napoli-style pizza in HB. Hands down.It’s light, well balanced and sooo tasty.Unlike many other pizzas that are super loaded and greasy, this is the opposite.Quality ingredients you can ACTUALLY TASTE!Service has been outstanding every time I’ve gone.The one time my order ran late (a take out pizza) due to a weekend dinner rush and a wood fire over naturally taking longer, they gifted me a free second pie for having waited for merely 20 mins.Super delicious, quality and kind service.What more can you ask for? ?♂️And YES, it is cash only, but trust me when I say that if that’s the reason you’re not going, you’re a fool. $3 charge on the ATM they have inside will make no difference to your experience, and you will come away thanking me.Please keep up the great work!Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair ramp directly in the front“

“We waited over 2 hours to be seated on a Friday night but it was well worth the wait. It is honestly the best sushi I've had in awhile and for a price you can't beat. I can see why this place is highly rated on yelp. The quality of the fish was great, the taste was amazing, the service was prompt and friendly. It is great to see such a busy place run smoothly. All I have to say is bring your patience and appetite.Parking: It is located in a busy plaza. You should find parking within the plaza .“

“Overall experience was great- our waiter was not overly attentive once he found out we would not be drinking and felt frustrated that we were not ready to order immediately once our final party member arrived. The food was really good and it was a bit noisy initially but quieted a bit as dinner went on.“

“This isn't your typical surf shack joint. Typical beach cafes don't serve beef short rib sandwiches. Much of their menu is a step above what you'd likely be expecting from a location like this. From the outside it looks unassuming and familiar. You walk up, order, find a spot and grub. As far as I can tell, you don't need shoes or a shirt just an appetite. It's not refined or snoody, it's just damn good.They season their chips. The lowly give-away that most places serve stale as low-cost hunger appeasement filler, is done fresh and treated with care. Putting forth effort into making the most basic parts of the menu delicious means they really want everything they put out to be delicious. The thought and care behind the quality of their items is often sought but rarely found. Also, the salsa with their chips is really bomb.You can't go wrong with the BBQ short rib sandwich, chowder fries, or fresh ceviche.“

“Authentic Italian ristorante and I loved this place. Very cozy atmosphere and the server was super friendly. He said that this place has been running over 30 years by the same owner's family. Food quality matters? You gotta go there. Size matters? You can leave your worries out the door. Don't skip Tiramisu. They make it from scratch and it is a Must to try.“

“This place is amazing!! So beautiful and cozy. The food is delicious, the wine, the music, the vibe and atmosphere!! Gustavo is a sweetheart. Suggested recommendations, and went out of his way to make us feel fantastic! He went above and beyond to attend to my friend and I. Amber is also very sweet and attentive. My favorite spot from now on. The Tres muchachos, (owners) are very hands on and catering. I strongly recommend this spot to anyone! Beautiful for hosting events too. ??“

“Small family run business, but owner and staff are very friendly. Seafood is fresh and wild caught and prices are very reasonable for the quality of the food. The dishes come hot and freshly prepared from the kitchen to your table. The seafood were all expertly prepared and cooked perfectly. I love the nice crisp on the salmon and snapper and their fresh grilled vegetables. The owner gave our birthday girl a complimentary bread pudding dessert.“

“During the time I walked in there was beautiful weather outside ; wide open were the restaurant's doors to peep' the scene. I ordered the London special and enjoyed it! I was given a package of malt vinegar for the fish along with tartar sauce the cooks offer too. "Absolutely nothing wrong with that"Later, a friend told me the place probably has a chain of restaurants scattered across parts of the UK and other areas of the US. It's perfect for Fountain Valley.“

“Great all -american fare,we are on the patio which is clean and relaxing our waitress Janel.was a doll,so helpful, attentive and together, explained how the dishes were prepared that we were interested in and just all together made our dining experience first class.I had the seafood bisque soup which was perfect,not much of it but it was delicious.The Swordfish entre with mash potatoes and sauteed vegetables was great,the, swordfish was prepared just right as were the vegetables and potatoes,just the right amount of seasoning and the vegetables sauteed in a sauce that was light and tasty.All I all the food,service and ambience were just right,I would suggest asking for Janel.as your waitress we returned for dinner a few days later,food was still just as good but our server was fine,but nowhere near as good as Janel.who was working that evening but was super busy with a bunch of other tables,but she helped us just because she could see we needed a couple of things and was close by and because she really is that good at her job and cares,am A -Class Person and waitress.This place is well worth the visit.Vegetarian options: Not a great place for vegetarians,I saw NO vegetarian or Vegan four way tasting offering.Parking: Saffire is definitely worth a visit,great food,not unreasonably priced,portions are honestly a little small for my liking(but that's me) but would highly recommend.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair ramp at both entrances,very easily accessible.“

“Love this little Chinese resto in HB. Very consistent. Food is delicious. Great customer service. Restaurant has only a few tables but don't judge based on few tables. Food is delicious and fresh. I love their wonton soup. So fresh with lots of veggies, sliced chicken breast, shrimps and wontons. House special chicken and rice are yummy and kung pao 3 flavors are a must.“

“First time dining here and it was delicious! I had the garlic noodles with shrimp and spicy sausage. My husband had the blackened sea bass. Oh my gosh, so good. The service was excellent which made the evening even more enjoyable! Can't wait to enjoy another meal there soon. Prices are very reasonable too!“

“The food and service were terrific. I had the sole and the taste was amazing. My Finnish grandmother in Minnesota fried her freshly caught walleyed pike in lots of butter and there wasn't a more heavenly aroma or taste to be found. I haven't had fish that tasted like that since 1965, until Friday night 3/8/24. The farro that the fish was served on top of was excellent. The ambience reminds me of restaurants in Nevada City CA -- rustic, woodsy and salt of the earth. I highly recommend this restaurant for the quality of the food, the service, and the ambience.“

“The food is fantastic and the service was even better. This isn’t a good option for a polished date because the atmosphere isn’t great, but it is a great option for a solid meal.The first impression was disappointment because I expected a traditional sit down restaurant. The tables and spacing are like fast food.The staff was very welcoming and friendly. They talked us through the menu, recommending the barramundi dishes and they did not disappoint.They brought the food to our table and it was fantastic. Just go. Early and often.“

“4.5/5 starsCame here as part of an Instagram collaboration. My favorite items were the Vietnamese steak and eggs (super tender meat and flavorful sauce) and the Cajun seafood platter (tender crawfish, shrimp, clams, and mussels). The $4 extra for live/fresh seafood is totally worth it. The seafood platter comes with delicious bread, which was perfect when dipped in the sauce! The crispy calamari was delicious (batter wasn’t too thick). The hot stone pho was average. I personally didn’t notice a significant difference between pho in a hot stone bowl vs regular pho. My bf loved the garlic noodles, but I thought it needed more flavor. All the items we got I would probably give 5/5 stars except for the pho and the garlic noodles, which I would give 3/5 stars“

“Such a fun atmosphere and excellent food! Our server Gabriel was friendly and helpful. He recommended the chile relleno and the Branzino and both were uniquely delicious. We also ordered the octopus ceviche for an appetizer and it was tender with incredible flavor. We also shared their homemade soft serve ice cream which was the best I’ve had. We shared this between 4 people and it was plenty of food. We are full, happy, and can’t wait to come back! Highly recommend if you want a great meal in a beautiful place!“

“I'm generally not overly generous with 5 star reviews, but this place is a 5.Service: super attentive but not overbearing or in the way.Food: Bread excellent. Butter creamy and lightly seasoned.Soup, pasta fagioli and minestrone both outstanding.Salad was fresh and delicious with large shrimp.Chicken Marsala, tender and spot on.Owned by the same people as Black Trumpet which was a hard pass, but this place is a solid contender“

“Top notch Sushi! I've been coming here since they opened and I'm in love with this place. First, Chef Masa is the nicest most friendly Chef there is, and all his staff are friendly and spot on with water refills and quick service. The fish he gets is some of the freshest and best quality out there. For cooked food Try the salmon collar. It's the melt in your mouth part of the salmons neck and cheek, and prepared expertly! Everything I've had, from the fresh oysters, the halibut carpaccio, the Takowasa, and Takoyaki, they spicy yellow tail lover roll and al the sashimi- has been perfect. Can't recommend enough !“

“Here are the pros … beautiful architecture, good food (appreciate the option for vegan cheese which is tasty), good drinks, attentive service.… and the cons: very loud if you’re dining inside on the weekend, our round table was wobbly (quite unexpected when you’re paying a premium for your meal), valet parking ($8 not including tip) is required unless you have a lot of time and patience to search the beach streets for parking and are willing to hike a bit.“

“Cannot remember our waiters name but he was OUTSTANDING. We dined with our pets and he just made the night. Was so knowledgeable about our wine we ordered. The whole staff was on top of everything. Given this is a beach town a lot of places seem to be too laid back and no urgency. Here. Everything from the fresh oysters to the surf and turf were out of this world.“

“I still think about the sushi I had here. In fact I have dreams about it.I was born and raised in Hawaii where fresh seafood was always available and always delicious rarely ever frozen. I’ve also been stationed in Japan for a few years and ate a looot of sushi.Coming back to the states and moving to California, finding good sushi that can compare had been difficult but who knew a place like this was so near to where I lived??Definitely gonna become a regular here!Thank you!“

“Celebrating Christmas Eve Brunch at the Mayor's was incredible. Not only did they have the largest selection of top-quality foods, but their service was fantastic! It was all you can eat, and it was hard to stop devouring plate after plate. They had really refreshing iced tea with rose water in it. I didn't expect to see an ice sculpture as their centerpiece. I hope to come back again soon, as it was quite the experience.Vegetarian options: A lot of great optionsKid-friendliness: They offered a reduced price for kids, and they loved the experience!“

“Every trip to Tommy Bahama in Newport Beach is a win. They've got this chill vibe that makes you feel welcome right away. What really got me last time was when I was feeling off, ordered soup, and they tossed in some bread and a note that hit the spot. It’s those small things that show they’re actually paying attention.The food's always good, straightforward without trying too hard. But it’s the little extras and the vibe that keep me coming back. If you're in Newport Beach, it's worth stopping by. They manage to make each visit feel like they're glad to see you, which is pretty rare.“

“We found this place on a whim after our wait at another sushi restaurant was over 1.5 hrs. We decided to do the omakase. It was the single best sushi experience I've had in my life. Not only was the selection given to us continuously amazing bite after bite, but the service was impeccable. We definitely found a new favorite spot. Treat yourself to a special evening here. They also have a non omakase option if that's not in your budget.“

“From the entrance, we can feel happy, since the Latin music surrounds you with joy. The service is 1A, (since I ordered a dish and it was not what I expected, they immediately changed it to the one I thought it was and it was not on the menu, it was a jelly made of only fish and really super delicious, I recommend this restaurant 100%, the price, the taste and the kindness of the girls and the man who serve you are 100% 1A excellent. Thank you very much ☺️ for everything. And congratulations for such excellent service. We loved the food and of course we will return .⭐️“

“Solid choice for Cuban/Caribbean fare. I wasn't a fan of the paella, I tend to not find too many places that can do a paella dish well, but at least the squid and fish bites in it were good. I come for the sangria and fresh hot bread though lol. You can order practically anything off of their menu and you won't be disappointed. Go wild and get the tongue or oxtail.“

“Another wonderful dinner at The Bungalow. We snuck in on the last night of OC Restaurant Week. Peter enjoyed the Corn Chowder Soup, 10 oz. lobster tail with mashed potatoes. And creamy Cheesecake (to go). So amazing. I had the Blackened Salmon and it was perfect. The sauce was Devine and a dollop of guacamole on top were so flavorful. And guacamole had a little crunch to it. Thank you! Deirdre“
