We had a wonderful dinner last night at Bayside. I had the chicken fusilli mushroom dish and my husband had the short ribs. We also had the kiwi pie dessert, which was yummy. We sat in the bar area at a high table and the bartenders did a great job. I highly recommend this restaurant!!

The food was a work of art . You could tell the kitchen took pride in what was delivered to the table. Presentation was outstanding and the food delicious. Our service could have been better, we had to keep asking the staff to find our server.

We had a wonderful time! The food and service were excellent. Stephani was darling and very attentive!

We went during Restaurant Week & although I normally enjoy their food & service, we felt like 2nd class citizens ordering off the RW menu & the food wasn't their usual standard. Service was less than impressive too.

I have been coming to this restaurant as well as its older sister Bistango in Irvine for over 20 years. Not once have I been ever disappointed in anything from the greeting when I check in to the ambience. Entertainment. The serve team. The food. I'm a foodie and enjoy quality food and ambience. This is one of the very few restaurants in Southern California that has both. The only recommendation I have is to bring day venison, and the gnocchi the way you had it As always, well done Karen and Mark🙏👍

We had a really enjoyable Sunday brunch at Bayside. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, and the service made the experience even better. Our waiter—whose name we unfortunately didn't catch—was incredibly pleasant, attentive, and genuinely helpful throughout the meal. He took great care of us without hovering, which we really appreciated. The hostess was also wonderful. She greeted us with a warm smile and set a positive tone right from the moment we walked in. The only small downside was that we were celebrating a birthday, and although it was noted on the reservation, there wasn't any acknowledgment from the restaurant. Even a small gesture—like offering a dessert—would have been a nice touch, though we weren't expecting anything. Overall, Bayside delivered a great brunch experience with good food, friendly service, and a lovely setting. We'd happily come back and recommend it to others looking for a pleasant weekend outing.

We enjoyed the New Year's Eve celebration that Bayside Restaurant provided. Two of us had the surf and turf special prix fix menu and it was fabulous. One person ordered off the menu. The service could not have been better. It was amazing how fast they got the food out with so many people all ordering at the same time. The decor was very festive. The live music was not too loud where we sat in the other room. All in all, I give the night a 10 out of 10. It was just what we wanted, including seeing friends.

The decor was beautiful! All the balloons were amazing. We loved the filet, lamb, salads and desserts. The meats could have been hotter when served but it was very busy and it tasted delicious. Our server and all the staff was excellent.

Cool restaurant. Decent food. Not many good vegetarian options. The ravioli was very salty. Good service. View of the marina.

Placed in side room. Band and music in the main dining room and not heard for ambiance in our dining room.

Went for Thanksgiving, our dinner was delicious. You could choose turkey with all the fixings or a la cart. Our service was excellent, the music was perfect not too loud. We highly recommend Bayside for a special occasion or just every day dining.

This is our 8th year and I am always impressed with the consistency and quality of the food AND service. The restaurant is decorated beautifully and the food selection is just right- you can always opt for the traditional turkey dinner. Wonderful experience year after year!

Thanksgiving dinner at Bayside Restaurant has become an annual tradition for us. Great food, even greater people on staff, and an easy laid back vibe.
