The only good thing about this restaurant is the outdoor chairs they have on the patio. Made of slatted wood contoured to your body you can sit and relax with good cigar next to the fire pit and have a drink without people giving you dirty looks. DO NOT pay for the overpriced food. it tastes like an airline dinner.... more

My family (two small daughters, husband, and I) attempted to eat at Gulfstream Saturday night. Unfortunately, we decided to leave after appetizersand not because the kids were acting up! You see, although the food seemed to be good (kind of hard to judge after eating shrimp cocktail and grilled artichoke-but to be fair both good items) the service was poor.... more

One of the tastiest cheeseburgers in Orange County! Also go for their Tuna burger which is delicious. Make sure you get the above mentioned sandwiches/burgers with the shoe string potoato fries. The staff has been cordial and friendly. There is a wait, so make reservations. more

Hip cousin of Houston's offering fresh American fare in Newport Beach. Outside fire pits great for lounging and people-watching. $$$ more
