Restaurants near Corona del Mar State Beach

We had our family Christmas Dinner here this year & managed to get a private room upstairs. Evan was fantastic taking care of our family. This was a second trip for the week as we celebrated a birthday dinner at FC on Wednesday as well. A disappointment that we were not able to get the Christmas goose on Saturday as we were told it would be available since we missed it on Wednesday...my wife's favorite. I'm not sure if the kitchen was short staffed, overwhelmed, or there was new people, but many of the dishes at our table were not cooked as requested. Both the duck & ribeye were overcooked..& we hate to send back knowing it will be thrown out. The fingerling potatoes were also quite undercooked. It won't dampen our enthusiasm for return visits, but a bit of a bummer for our family Christmas dinner.

A++++ Last night was my second visit, and it will not be my last. We requested the bar area. It was perfect for my two sons. It was her first visit.. I appreciate that the restaurant has different seating areas that you can try out and decide which is best. Food was amazing. Scallops and Chilean Sea bass wee cooked to perfection. My son’s medium + rib eye was right on point. We both wish they would offer the Porter house option.  Their cookies and cream gelato cake was a perfect ending.  I believe our waitress had too many tables,therefore it wasn’t the service level i experienced on my first visit.  definitely the best seafood and steakhouse. I believe in Orange County.

Amazing vibe! The best food and drinks. Make a Rez.

The food is A-maz-ing! We had the halibut and the pork tenderloin! I want to try Everything on the menu! The almond cake is one of the best desserts I've ever had! (Warning- it is sweet, but absolute perfection!) All of the waiters are very attentive, and made our experience fabulous! We will be definitely returning!!!!

Such a great atmosphere!! So fun even for a Monday night it was busy which we loved. Food was excellent. Mini French dips are to die for. Great drinks great service!! 11/10 highly recommend grabbing dinner or drinks and appetizers so so great!!!!!
