    Perfect service. They had our table ready. They were so professional. The food was excellent. Everything was five stars. The only thing is that this restaurant is closing. Visit before it is gone.

    10oz Filet Mignon with Shrimp Scampi and Asparagus
    Cuong N.

    Took my mom to Eddie V's for dinner. It was the first time for the both of us. The waitress was super attentive and was intentional in making sure our first time was memorable. We both ordered the special of the day which was a 10oz filet and shrimp scampi and asparagus. It was cooked perfectly but next time I think I would ask for the food to remain separate on this dish as the flavors seem to blend in more than I would have like. I also ordered one of their signature spirits, a smoked old fashioned. Also, perfectly prepared. Where I felt that our waitress went above and beyond was the various complimentary servings throughout our meal. She brought out a fried ahi sample went we first sat down, she then gave us a half portion of the roasted Brussels sprouts. To conclude, she brought out Godiva chocolate cookies. Needless to say she succeeded in making our first visit memorable!

    Friday night dinner reservation, easy to reserve online. Parking was plentiful and we got seated quickly. We ordered caviar (not pictured), a half dozen oysters, the sea bass, crab fried rice, the filet mignon with lobster, and a butter cake dessert. My husband had an old fashioned and I enjoyed a Cadillac margarita and we each had a glass of wine. Our favorites were the crab fried rice as recommended by our server Lexi. She also made the cocktails and provided recommendations on wines to our preferences in taste. Great meal and very spacious restaurant. It was cozy and intimate for such a big restaurant. Happy with everything and would come here again for another date or event with friends.

    Bone-in Ribeye steak - excellent
    Simon K.

    The bone in ribeye was great as always however this time it arrived rare even though I requested medium rare. I still enjoyed it. But next time I'll ask for Medium. My wife ordered the Chilean Sea Bass which was great as expected however next time she'll order the Lobster Bisque instead and share some of my entree. She agreed that the Mac n Cheese was amazing.

    Celebrating my parents' anniversary, we've decided to give Eddie V's a try as recommended by bro in law. I had no expectation when it came to American's style seafood house, so I went with the flow. The place was pretty intimate, but casual for date nights. They even had rose petals and a cute anniversary card on the table. Shoutout to our server, Brian. He was super friendly, super helpful, super knowledgable, super everything, a highlight of our dining experience. We got ourselves quite a feast with Seafood tower, some cooked seafood items, sides, and hearty desserts. Their oyster selections were good and plump, Ahi Tuna Tatare was surprisingly good as well. They utilized Asian flavors really well in most seafood items. Bone-in Ribeye was also tender, cooked to perfect doneness, and perfectly seasoned. But the real highlight of the meal was the Jumbo Lump Crab Cake. They didn't skip on the jumbo, lumpy pieces of crab, really flavorful as well. It was so dang good we had to order twice (I'm thinking about it, drooling). Dessert items were quite hearty and delicious as well. As expected at an American's dining, dessert items were really sweet and bold, which was not a complaint at all. First time trying butter cake, my personal favorite American dessert so far. Overall, we had such a good meal and an amazing experience throughout. From the food, the vibe, to the excellent service. A perfect spot for any special occasion. Please, get the crab cake!!

    Pretty good steakhouse/seafood house. I've been wanting to go here for awhile, food is good but nothing memorable. Service was excellent and the restaurant looked nice inside

    Good atmosphere, great service and delicious food. Sadly they are closing soon so we cannot go back but I enjoyed the time we got there. Our server was very sweet and personable. The food was full of flavor and veryy filling. I don't have a picture but the cheesy potatoes were delicious.

    The food and service here is spectacular!! I absolutely loved every single dish I got here. When you first sit down, they bring you drinks and complimentary bread and butter. From there, they will bring you all your appetizers you order. I really enjoyed the happy hour oysters. They were SO fresh and I loved how juicy they were. The lobster Mac and cheese is another highlight of mine!! The lobster is just SO tender and juicy and the Mac and cheese is SO cheesy and creamy. I LOVE this place!!

    Crab Fried Rice and asparagus 9/10

    My husband and I came to Eddie V's to celebrate Valentine's Day early, and we're so glad we did! From start to finish, the service was absolutely top-notch. Our server, went above and beyond to ensure we had an amazing experience--his attentiveness and willingness to make everything perfect truly stood out. I don't even want to share all the things in case people try to take advantage. The food was just as impressive. The steak was cooked exactly the way we wanted, and the lamb chops were incredibly tender with no gamey taste at all. I also ordered a couple of gin-based cocktails, and they were fantastic--expertly mixed and full of flavor. Honestly, I would come back for the service alone, but the excellent food and drinks make it even better. A perfect spot for a special occasion!

    Every Valentine's Day my hubby takes me to a different steak house but this year we wanted seafood! A friend recommended Eddie V's & it was so worth it! Amazing service and our waitress Sasha was wonderful. She was very thorough with the her explanations of all the dishes and drinks and gave us awesome tips! The ambiance was very nice. Prices are typical high for a fancy restaurant was already expecting it. Although I was sad this location didn't have the live music they played great music for the restaurant. The food was amazing! The African lobster was delicious and the jumbo crab cake was my absolute fave along with the Banana Foster Butter cake with butter pecan ice cream was to die for it melted in my mouth!!! Thank you Eddie V's Newport Beach!

    Absolutely Disappointing - A Complete Letdown from a Restaurant I Used to Love I've been coming to this restaurant for years and have always had a good experience--usually in the evenings. In fact, I was just here last week and had a lovely dinner, which is why I was so shocked and disappointed by how things unfolded during this visit. We arrived at 4:00 PM, and despite the restaurant being almost empty--only one other table was seated--it took more than 10 minutes for a server to even acknowledge us. No greeting, no water, no check-in. We just sat there, wondering if we had somehow become invisible. It felt like we were an afterthought the moment we sat down. When our server finally came over, there was no warmth or friendliness--just a rushed demeanor, as if we were bothering her. We placed a simple order that included oysters (which require minimal prep), yet our food didn't arrive until 40 minutes later. Even worse, we watched as two other tables who arrived after us--5 to 10 minutes later--received their meals before us. And with an open kitchen, we could clearly see that things weren't even moving back there. No urgency. No sense of workflow. It was like everyone was just standing around while we sat there growing more and more frustrated. When we asked politely about the rest of our order, the server responded with a mocking, sarcastic tone--as if we were being unreasonable for wondering where our food was. It was honestly insulting and completely unprofessional. The final straw was when we asked to see the dinner menu (something we often do because we usually like to order more), and she responded with a snide, sarcastic remark that made us feel completely unwelcome. By then, we'd had enough. We asked for the check and left--hungry and completely disheartened. We ended up finishing our meal at Wasa next door, where the staff treated us with kindness and basic decency. It wasn't the same food, but the experience was miles better. Looking back, we should have just gone to Fleming's, which is only a couple blocks away and has never let us down. I never thought I'd say this about a place I used to recommend to friends and family, but after today's experience, I'm honestly not sure if I'll be coming back. It was one of the worst dining experiences I've had in a long time--not because of the food, but because of how we were made to feel: ignored, disrespected, and unwelcome. Food was great but take point that youoose regulars like me due to lack of care and service quality from your servers. Do better.

    Decor - Nice
    Jason G.

    Celebrated our Anniversary at Eddie V's for the first time. There were definitely some Highs but also some Lows. Here's the breakdown: Highs * Service - Server Attentive, Friendly, and made us feel Special, Hostess was nice too * Decor - Comfortable Seating, Nice ambiance * Georges Bank Scallops - Very good, Fresh * South African Lobster Tails - Also very good, tender * Chilean Sea Bass - perfectly seasoned, flaky * Lobster Cheddar Mash Potatoes - heavy but good * Hope Diamond - Purple martini drink, wife enjoyed it, but ice wouldn't melt and made it hard to sip * Comp Desert Trio - Enjoyed it, ice cream good, the flambe was a nice touch, the butter cake just a little sweet for my taste Lows * Prime Ribeye - I really wanted to like this. Flavors were on point but it wasnt very tender and I've had better for half the price * Crab Fried Rice - This was a huge miss. Overly buttery, over-seasoned and unnecessarily heavy. Should be light and fluffy. The fried rice needs better technique. This dish should be scrapped or hire a Chinese restaurant cook to do it right. * Grilled Asparagus - Overcooked, pencil thin * Comp bread - Hard as rocks, needs to be toasted and softer or why even bother serving * Price - definitely on the higher end, would expect better execution on all dishes for the price Overall I would rate this place 3.5 stars. Since the service was great and friendly from everyone will say 4 stars. Hopefully management takes notes of the lows to improve for future dining.

    I don't like buffets as a general rule. So when my sister told me she would be out of town for. mother's day, a week before, I knew reservations would be an issue. They were. It's a busy restaurant day anyway. But tons of normal restaurants go buffet on this day. I'd never been here before and heard from a friend he liked it. So this is a chain restaurant. We were a few minutes early for the reservation and it was busy. We had to wait at the bar for about 30 minutes, which was quite a while. However, we both had a bloody mary and it was one of the best ones i've ever had. Really great. We eventually got to our little 2 person booth. The restaurant is laid out pretty well. They had a great deal of seating and an open style kitchen. The space is dark. It would be awesome if it was in a view spot; it's not. It's right off the freeway. But it's a nice place. The service was good. I liked our waiter. He was engaging and checked with us multiple times. There was a timing misstep with the appetizers, but it wasn't a big deal. The appetizers also were served separately, which was not our intention. But it ended up being nice sharing each other's app. My scallop dish and mom's sea bass were both lovely. Every dish was quite good. I ordered a very nice dry French white wine that we both enjoyed too. So the food was excellent, as was the wine. The servers exuded professionalism. The only drag was the wait for the table. I'm not going to ding the rating because it was busy on mother's day.

    Is there live music at this Eddie V's?

    Yes a band plays on the right side of the restaurant

    Do you charge different price than what is on the menu? That is cheating the customer

    Eddie V's has always been honest and charges the price on the menu - but it is up to you to check your receipt for accuracy, just like every restaurant. We were in Santa Ana at **** recently and the server "accidentally" added a $39 bottle of wine.… 

    Hi, can you order from the menu at the bar?

    Yes!! You can order from the full menu!

    Is this establishment related to THE Eddie Vedder...?

    Yes, families are welcome but it's more of a destination for grown ups.

    Is this restaurant good for an anniversary?

    YES ! Absolutely a very nice choice to celebrate and anniversary or any special event . It's quite low light atmosphere really dials up the mood .

    Is there outside seating for pets?

    I didn't see any outside seating at that place

    What are the vegan options on the menu? *****Edit***** after dining here I found the answer to my question. They have a beautiful vegan entree that would satisfy anyone and…

    Our last visit was extremely disappoint.

    Do you take reservations?

    Yes, they take reservations. Especially for dining unless you just want to go to happy hour & sit at the bar

    Do you have Happy Hours on Saturday? If yes, what hours?

    4-7pm on Tuesday to Saturday and all night Sunday and Monday

    When exactly is this happy hour?!?!?!

When you go thru the sliding doors it immediately transports you to a different time and place. Its very dark. Sleek. And modern. Yet simple. I love the big screen tvs with areal views of New York. It just made it feel like we were in a high rise building or a blimp with a birds eye view of many of New Yorks beautiful landmarks. The couches were extremely comfortable too. Great cushion. You just sink into them. Its a small area but great utilization of the space, making it seem large and spacious. The chairs too were really comfortable to sit in. We spent 3 hours in there and it flew by so quickly. The ambiance and feel here was just truly top notch. Our waitress was Brandy, or is it Brandi? She was super cool. She was a one person crew. Basically getting orders, making drinks, cleaning tables, and checking in on us. And she did it with great charisma, attitude and personality. Super knowledgeable about the menu. Made great drinks quickly. And was just super personable. Great job from her!! Her attitude and demeanor really matched the top tier aura they were going for here. They have a great selection of drinks. From more alcohol forward drinks to light and fruity drinks to refreshing drinks. I really did enjoy their drink selections. We had a total of about 6 drinks and they were all really good! We got there: 1. Fox's wedding- light, seeet and refreshing. I love the origami piece that Brandy put on it as well. Looked so beauitful. 2. Guava chiffon pancake- it was tropical, light but also had a coconut feel to it. It was really good. 3. The Monroe- this was light but tart, but not too tart. Silky with fruit forward notes. 4. Miso honey butter corn- rarely is a savory cocktail good. But this one was pretty good. The butter fat washed burbon was super intriguing. But it works well 5. When pigs fly- came with a paper airplane on top!! Haha. Love the playfulness. But the drink was so complex yet smooth. It was really good. For the bourbon drinkers, this one is for you! 6. Smoked Old Fashion- presentation is amazing. Comes in a big glass case that has cherry wood smoke inside. When you open it, you get that intense smell of burning cherry wood. Drink is smokey but in a very good way. Tasted amazing. A true classic done right. Their food menu is very encompassing and thorough as well. From full on burgers, to flat breads, to appetizers and small bites, to salads. They have a little of everything!! We ordered the following: 1. Pub nachos- this was an extremely large plate of loaded nachos. Super crunchy and fresh. I loved the generous amount of Chipotle chicken on top. The pepper jack queso sauce and jalapeño crema was a really good sauce. It just binded everything together. The beans and the fresh jalapeño just really all worked together. It was super good. Kept you grazing and munching away, but never becoming too full (more room for their drinks!!). 2. Figgy piggy flat bread- it was ok. Sweet caramel onions and fig jam, paired with some pungent cheeses. I thought it was pretty good. 3. Shrimp street tacos- 1 order comes with 2 tacos. They were good sizes. I love their tacos. So flaverful. Everything works together. Just tasted amazing!! Overall everything about this place is 5 stars. The ambiance, the decor, the exclusivity. The service. The drinks and the food. As i said 3 hours went by so fast!! Definitely a must try when in the area. And when you stay at the Marriott, its just a simple walk back to your room. And we left feeling happy and amazing. Thank you very much Brandy!!

They have tons of parking in this shopping center. They share it with TONS of other places. One of my BFFs saw this on an Instagram video and wanted to check it out. *They do take reservations When we came in we checked in with one of the waitresses. She said she would seat us in a minute. To be honest, she did forget about us. A waiter walked up to us and asked us what was going on (we were standing there for around 7 - 10 minutes) and we told him we had a reservation for the speakeasy. He immediately apologized and sat us. This camp themed speakeasy has a couple booths. It's on the smaller sides. Which, speakeasy's are usually small to begin with. I did not get the waitresses name, my friend and I were busy catching up. The waitress was nice, but not attentive. I will say service was a 2/5. However, the actual restaurant, cozy pine is located in, was packed because of the World Cup being on TV. So I definitely was not going to complain The food Our food order did come out extremely FAST. Faster than our drink orders. -the campfire guacamole -BBQ shoestring fries (had bbq seasoning all over them so it tasted like a BBQ potato chip) -Glamping plate (charcuterie board) -steak tacos (one without onion and cilantro -churro affogato Again, the food was VERY fast!! And to be honest it wasn't that bad. I'll say, speakeasy's usually shine in the drink department vs food. Drinks -Lycheed and Loaded Ketel One, lychee liqueur, lemon, elderflower.

I could only finish about half and save the rest for the next day. Even though I was full, I decided to try the fried apple pie because it was recommended by many other reviewers. It was actually amazing. It was the dish that was highly recommended by the server and she was not wrong. The ice cream on top was probably House made and the pie itself was like a gourmet version of a hostess apple pie but of course with much higher quality ingredients and it was delicious. The vibe of the restaurant is exciting. It is a fun place to visit with the visual aspects such as the bird cages in the window case. Oak barrels used for aging whiskey are set around and the general vibe was very attractive. Everyone was having a great time and making quite a lot of noise from all the conversation and the music, but people were really enjoying themselves. If you want to have a quiet conversation with someone, this is probably not your place, but if you want a fun time with that kind of vibe, it is an excellent place. I recommend Bosscat highly.

    Took my mother-in-law here for her birthday and we all had such a great experience!…read more We got there around 4-4:15pm and had about a 20 minute wait, but we were able to find a high top table that we got to sit at and were able to order drinks from the bar, so that helped to pass our time. We got seated at our table at our table around 4:30p and had the most perfect view of the ocean! *we went on a Friday night and noticed the patio cleared out about 4:45-5pm and I didn't appear to have a lot of people waiting during that time. The main patio was covered with umbrellas, so once you are seated for dinner, there was plenty of umbrellas for shade and heaters for when it got a little cooler. For our food orders, and as recommended by our server, we went with their seafood options and ordered their Pacific Ceviche for an appetizer and for Entrees my husband got the Roasted Halibut and me and my mother-in-law both got the Scallop and Shrimp pasta. We all loved our dishes and were very satisfied with our choices. Their menu does have non-seafood options, but why not to try what they're most prominent for? They don't have a dessert menu, but they heard that we were celebrating mom's birthday so they brought us a little Toffee Cake to share and enjoy...and for a place that doesn't have dessert, the cake was pretty delicious. Such a cute place all around. My husband and I can't wait to go back! Parking - they have valet parking available right in front of the restaurant or theres street metered parking in the surrounding area.

    I was really hoping for a great lunch, but unfortunately the experience was disappointing…read more The poke and mussels were actually very good, which makes it even more frustrating that the rest of the meal fell so short. I ordered the scallop and shrimp pasta, and on my very first bite of the scallop, it had a strong ammonia taste--a common sign that seafood has gone bad. After that, I completely lost my appetite and couldn't eat the rest of my meal. My daughter ordered the cioppino, and after checking the seafood in her dish, we noticed the scallop was also very rubbery and didn't seem fresh either. Fresh seafood is something restaurants should never compromise on. Based on this experience, I can't recommend eating here and would suggest trying another restaurant instead.
