Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar

Took our server 45 min to take our order and another 45 min for our steaks and sides to come out. We had to beg him to bring the food after. When it arrived the steak was cold and over cooked - charred so badly the knife could barely cut thru it. we had to insist on having it redone. Waiter was unapologetic, and still charged us full price for the meal - he tried to act like he did us a favor by not charging us for the “3rd steak” Will never go back. Mastros is just 10 min away, why bother.

We went for the weekday lunch and there were only about four table occupied so a slow day. However the lunch menu is priced right against other steakhouse lunches as well as the other high priced restaurants in Newport Beach. A delicious cheeseburger and fries for only $19! Seafood Louie for $28 that included lobster, shrimp and crab. They also have a 2 course prix fixe for around $30. Great service and food.

Good food. Slow service. Waitress seamed high. Boyfriend left nice sunglasses on table. Called very next morning and restaurant claims waitress didn't see anything. Party next to us was quiet but their waiter was yelling. Won't be returning when there are other fine dining options. Restaurant was very dark and had no ambient lighting either.

It was a great experience. The food was delicious and the service was great. The only objection is the music was too loud. So we had to talk loud in order to hear each other.

Celebrating my Birthday

Awesome food. Good service.

We visited the very first Fleming’s location in Newport Beach, and the steak was absolutely amazing — even better than what I’ve had in Texas. Our server, Misha, was incredibly kind and attentive. Thanks to her, we had a wonderful time celebrating my wife’s birthday.

They say that first impression are the things that you remember the most and coming here to Flemings you are greeted by very friendly and courteous hosts. They greet and bring you to your table and if you are celebrating an event..there is a hand written card with confetti on the table. It’s a nice touch to show you that you are a valued diner.
Once seated, they bring you water and warm bread with two different spreads. The service was spotty. The bus staff was great and made up for the lack of knowledge from the waiter (who did not know about the filet and wine flight availability and had to ask management).
As for the food, the burrata cheese appetizer was chosen and was served with arugula (instead of the usual basil) and heirloom tomatoes (which were not quite ripe enough to be eaten). The Flemings salad which came with the filet flight, was slightly sweet with cranberries and candied walnuts. It had a nice mix of textures and is the salad to get if you like nuts and cranberries. The entree chosen was the filet mignon (upgraded to a main filet mignon) and the half lobster tail. The main filet was a generous portion that made for a nice lunch the next day. The half lobster tail though was tough, rubbery and tasted of frozen lobster tails.
The second filet flight started with the Caesar salad, which lacked a teensy bit of dressing, but was otherwise fresh and crisp. This entree was upgraded to a bone-in ribeye with a crab stuffed half lobster tail. The ribeye had a nice crust to it, was very tender, but lacked a bit of steak spices. It was a decent size, cooked to the correct doneness, but was a little on the thin side. The crab stuffed lobster, like the other one was tough and rubbery. This one also has a very fishy odor that was noticed upon its arrival at the table by the other diners.
Each filet flight ordered a wine flight, one red and one white. My gripe with the wine flights (three 2oz pours) were that they were both brought out after the entrees had been served. It would have been nice to have them brought out along with the entrees or even better if each wine was paired with the appetizer, entree and dessert.
Speaking of which, the dessert (included with the filet flight) was delicious. It was crème brûlée and it was done to perfection. The top was charred enough to give it a glass like texture, but was not burnt. Upon cracking the top,the crème underneath was velvety and smooth with just the right amount of sweetness.
The dining room is very dimly lit (done for ambiance), but there are other restaurants that do the same with well placed lighting. The patio is the way to go on a nice warm sunny day.
The service from the bus staff was great. Water was refilled, table was cleared of finished or dirty dishes and they were always present. The waiter on the other hand, disappeared for a long period between the appetizer and the ordering of the filet flights. When questioned about a suitable wine choice for the dishes basically said chose white because of the seafood without giving any recommendations.
Coming to Flemings is an experience if you’ve never been and even better if you come to celebrate an event due to the little touches like a card and confetti on the table. Service is a little mixed, the steaks are good, but I would definitely avoid the lobster tails.

Omg, this Fleming's location is amazing! A thousand times better than the one in Anaheim. All of the food is way fresher and was prepared in a healthier manner. Service at both locations is hands down first class dining tho. Highly recommend getting the filet mignon, brussel sprouts, and mashed potatoes. I was able to try the shrimp cocktail and tiny beef skewers. Both were delicious and satisfying. This place really delivers the old style steakhouse experience with a modern spin. Parking here can be a little tight on weeknights, but there is a valet.

I had a very awful experience! Their food selection is very limited. They designed the menue in a way that you have to order any sides for steak separately (each side costs something between $12 to $20). Otherwise they will give you a plate with a piece of steak in it ($60 to $100). Prices are so high for the quality and quantity of the food. They had us wait for soooo long although not many people were in there. They brought the salad after main course! I do not recommend this place and I wont return for sure.

It was great food and fun. Especially when seeing the amount of lobster 🦞 and all the service men had to atmosphere.

This was the most amazing birthday dinner! Both steaks were cooked perfectly, very tender and juicy. I am normally an A1 Sauce junkie (no matter the quality of steak) and yet I didn’t even need a drop during my meal tonight! The service was spectacular, Kelsey took such amazing care of me and my husband. She was prompt, polite, professional, and kind. The sautéed mushroom are must-have side, as well as the steamed lobster tail. Overall; such a pleasant experience and we are waiting on the edge of our seats to be able to return!

I have a habit of visiting places in the hour before closing, not because I like to but because I'm always on the go. I find sometimes the food at the end of the night gets below average. Not here. I ordered my medium, prime new York at quarter after nine on a Wednesday night and got outstanding service and the quality i expected. Actually a little more honestly. The steak was on the money temp wise. They didn't rush it and served me a beautiful thick cut that tasted phenomenal. Medium on the money! I enjoyed crispy Brussels and the bartender gave me just enough attention without being overbearing. I have come here over the years and am always pleased and leave full and happy.
