    Holy MOLY!! I'm so happy to get a sandwich from here, because the pizza around the corner was not for me. First of all, the SHAKA SPUDS is like crack because not me buying one bag first and coming right back in for two more for the road. Ya'll this place is worth the drive (I'm coming from end the end of Orange County, near Camp Pendleton) the sandwich was perfect, hit the spot on what I was craving for and it SLAPS! I got the Greatfella Sandwich without the agrula and sauce on the side (I don't like my sandwich to be soggy) originally I ordered to go but the moment I open the bag and got a whift of that sandwich, I had to find a table to eat. With the addiciting SPUDS and this sandwich, I was in heaven and the combination of flavors *chef kisses* The Greatfella was so damn good, I ended up finished the whole sandwich in one seating and a whole bag of the spuds that I came back inside to order two more for the road and now it's on my list to come back when I'm in the area. The spuds were so crispy and fresh, and the perfect amount of thickness of a chip for their secret sauce (the star of it) and as I'm typing this review out, I'm eating the other bag and wishing I got more it. Will be coming back and getting a whole big of it, heck I'll bring my gallon ziploc. The services was amazing, I have to find my receipt to get the name of the lady who was working the front register, she was super duper awesome on taking my order. Thank you so much for recommending the spuds with my sandwich.

    The breakfast sandwich was delicious and the bread was warm and soft. Highly recommend. The coffee and sandwich was a great pair together and the inside is so cute.

    White chocolate mocha cold, and the OG breakfast sandwich

    Ordered the vanilla cold brew latte and a white chocolate mocha cold. For food ordered the gringo burrito and the OG breakfast sandwich. The drinks were outstanding. I would order the OG breakfast sandwich again. My partner had the gringo burrito which she could not finish so I had to finish it for her. This place always seems busy and service is great. Very casual vibe and good music.

    Thai chicken salad  wrap
    Kellie N.

    Great sandwiches. Great service. I always get the zephyr with turkey. You can never go wrong with that choice but today I felt like trying something new. I decided on the Thai chicken salad wrap. Yes it's pretty great! A little heat not too much with a little sweet it's perfect. They make their own potato chips too! They're pretty amazing!

    Cold brew vanilla latte with oatmilk

    Cute place. Patio seating & some indoor. Friendly service. Nice breakfast & lunch menu. I've only done breakfast so far. My iced vanilla latte with oatmilk was perfect each time I've been here. Also, the breakfast burrito was delicious. The first time I came, it had mini hash browns in it. The second time, it was roasted potatoes. Amazing both times. Scrambled eggs, cheese & avocado.

    We recently had our lunch catering from Sessions. Both salads were so good, as usual. All ingredients were super fresh, especially the alfalfa sprouts, they had a nice green color that you can tell how fresh they were. And the grape tomatoes were very sweet. The sandwiches were all good. We had three types of turkey sandwiches, one was pesto, I think. They were on three different types of bread. Just a bit too much spread so they got soggy quickly. The tuna melts were gone quickly as well as the potatoes chips.

    Pulled over unexpectedly and so glad I did. Their ciabatta bread was perfectly crisp on the crust for my sandwich, it wasn't the main chunk of the bite either, a thinner inner dough that didn't over bear the other ingredients. The sandwich was packed to the brim and half of one was what I was expecting but when it came out to my table I blurted out 'whoa!' cuz it was a hearty portion, about seven or eight inches in length and four inches tall, I pushed it down to fit my mouth, and the roundness of the ciabatta hugged the ingredients so well, hardly anything fell out when biting into it. I got the Face Plant and glad I did it, I added arugula because I have an obsession with the peppery leaves. The apple slices were a nice touch. Added a rice beer because the day got really sunny out and it felt right. There's several beers on tap too! Service was cheerful and helpful. I was able to park in the free lot but it was a Thursday early afternoon. Cute decor, nice details, and they have bathrooms; I'll return again when in the area. Lucy introduced herself and has a great attitude, always love spending money at happy places.

    Chinese Chicken Salad*
    Maggie T.

    Grabbing lunch with some friends. Cute place on the island. Wood and greenery vibe was comforting. These salads were so delicious! What a yummy delight! I had the Chinese Chicken Salad and it was not your standard fare at all--piquant peppers, gooseberries, kale and the dressing was not sesame but so lovely. The Thai salad had heat and was fantastic. Tomato soup was "as good as Nordy Cafe"...which is the highest compliment from my friend. The only reason this wasn't 5 stars was the service. The person taking our order was not swift or a multitasker. We waited for an inordinate amount of time for them to bring the food and finally just went to the counter to ask. The salads were sitting and waiting to be taken to our table, but the order taker said he couldn't take them out until he was done taking another order. He wouldn't just hand them to us or acknowledge we'd been waiting. It was not busy and there were multiple people behind the counter. Based on the food--I feel like the lack of service was a fluke. Wish I lived there...I'm already craving that salad.

    A cute spot tucked into the busy marina of the Newport area! I enjoyed my time here they have a selection of sandwiches, beers on tap, iced tea and salads. Huge huge win as the salad was delish :) A casual spot with open airy seating, there were also two TV screens so if you need to catch a game you can catch it over a nice meal. There was limited indoor seating and no outlets, if you're looking for a spot to work.

    I've been to two other Sessions locations and I feel they all uphold the same great quality in food, the place is always clean, the employees are always friendly. I like that they all have different decor that suits their location. However, this location definitely goes above and beyond in terms of service. Kevin made us feel so welcome, just a friendly a guy overall. Very memorable service. I also really like the decor here, the place has a very chill vibe to it. Love the openness that the big window brings.

    8/2024 Delicious Thai chicken salad!!! This dressing is perfect.
    Jen S.

    Phenomenal salads!!! Loving their Thai Chicken Salad at the moment, with their dressing. It's one of the best salad dressings I've tried. It has a bit of a spicy kick, but it's perfectly seasoned, in my opinion. My colleagues got me to check this place out for sandwiches and salads. Thanks, Josh (John) for your recommendations!! Not a big fab of their avocado toast, but I'm not too savvy on what makes a delicious avocado toast.

    First time eating here and I very much enjoyed the service and casual vibe this spot has. Definitely will return! I highly recommend the spicy chicken sandwich. Their sides are very much shareable as their portions for just about everything are quite generous.

    Summer Zephyr* w chicken
    Lauren L.

    I got the summer zephyr and added chicken for protein and wow this sandwich was so delicious. Each ingredient and both sauces were sufficiently layered throughout the sandwich and were all very fresh. Every bite from end to end was satisfyingly full of flavor. The bread had a nice outer crispness and was light and airy on the inside. Want to try other menu items but it's gon be hard to not get this.

This past Sunday, I came in with my daughter, who was really craving a steak. She ordered it medium, but it came out a little more well-done than expected. What impressed me most wasn't the mistake, but how it was handled. Our server, Jenny, was attentive, thoughtful, and genuinely cared about our experience. We never asked for the steak to be removed from the bill, but Jenny and the manager took the initiative to make it right and comped it because it didn't meet their standards. That level of customer service is becoming rare, and it really stood out. My burger was absolutely delicious, the rest of the food was excellent, and Jenny even brought my tea in a to-go cup without me having to ask. It's not always the big things that make a difference it's the little details that show a restaurant truly cares about its guests. Thank you, Jenny, and the entire team, for another wonderful experience. Great food, outstanding service, and a team that goes above and beyond. I highly recommend Great Maple and will definitely be back.

The entire place had full of life and is very clean. Our server today is Matt and he did an amazing job taking care of us. Very respectful and mindful and was happy to serve us which is a huge plus for me as customer service is also a defining factor for dining in my book. My family and I ordered a variety of dishes however I will be writing based on what I ordered personally / shared with and have eaten. Brew Bears - Cinnamon Toast (4/5): Our server Matt recommended this to me so I decided to order it to try it out. The drink comes in a small bear shape cup and had a soft and fluffy maple syrup + cinnamon foam. The drink is good and not too sweet which is a plus. Only downside is that the drink is fairly small and for $10, I would at least expect it to be in a larger size. Famous Maple Bacon Donuts (5/5): These were delicious! Very soft and fluffy; the maple glaze is sweet and gooey, and the bacon has a nice smoke to it which complimented the sweet maple notes. The donuts were clearly freshly made which we really appreciate. Be careful though as my family and I ordered 3 orders (3 pcs / order) and didn't realize how big each donut is! It is very filling and might make you too full for the other dishes if you normally don't eat a lot. Mac and Cheese (3.5/5): I ordered this alongside both the chili bacon bits and shrimp add-ons. The Mac and cheese came with spiral shaped pasta with a panko crust and white cheese. The overall taste to me is decent; nothing that really stood out to me but it was still good. The amount of shrimp provided vs the cost for the add-on (+$7) wasn't worth it for the small pieces and overall portion. I did also get some fettuccini pasta noodles towards the bottom of the dish which threw me off. Not sure if that's intended or by accident. Parmesan Truffle Fries (5/5): The fries we ordered came in hot and fresh with a side of ketchup. There was ALOT of flavor and you can really taste the truffle. The texture for the fries was nice and crispy to perfection. Overall, we did have a great experience and I do see myself coming back some time in the future. I would probably change up a few orders to try different things out.

JOEY Newport Beach, down the street, near fashion island is consistent and offers a far better dining experience.

While our waiter provided good service and the food was wonderful, the experience was ruined by your reservation policy and poor management.

We were instructed to come in and sign up for seats around 5:00 PM to be seated around 6:00 PM. However, we were not seated until 7:00 PM. Making a family wait for almost three hours to accommodate a party of five is unacceptable. Furthermore, when we addressed this grievance with the manager on duty, our concerns were dismissed without empathy or concern. Due to the poor handling of this situation and the lack of professional customer service from management, I am leaving a 1-star review of this experience.

The drinks came out quickly and filled to the top! The nuggets were cooking to perfection, crispy and chicken forward. The breading was light and dipping sauces options were great. I especially loved the honey mustard. We were only in a grazing mood but the menu was filled with great tapas style options and will require another visit to explore. Seating options were plentiful inside and out. Great place to come to enjoy a variety of options and enjoy the sun.

    We went yesterday around brunch time and were kind of disappointed…read more We sat at the patio, which was cute. We had sparkling rosé and then later Sancerre. They and both were great. They have an impressive wine selection. The disappointment was the food though. We started with pot pie bites, which were the best thing on the menu. They were delicious. I wish they came with more than just four pieces. They are almost like pot pie wontons. We also ordered the three dips. Only one was edible. The hummus was so salty that we couldn't even eat that. Then there was a plain yogurt, which was boring. Lastly, there was the tzatziki, which was good. It came with flatbread and carrots and was beautifully presented. We also ordered the garlic meatballs. The meatballs had no flavor. They were covered in cheese and sauce and then there was a head of garlic on top. The garlic was cooked down too much so you couldn't get any garlic flavor. I would not order this again. We also got the chicken nuggets because they were popular, but honestly, they just tasted like deep fried overly cooked chicken nuggets. I would not order this again. Lastly, we got the wedge salad. This was a really boring salad with not a lot of flavor or toppings. The bacon on top was hard and inedible. Overall, an underwhelming dining experience, and I won't be back

    We had a great experience at Gulfstream. We started with the crab cakes, salmon appetizer, and the…read morebiscuits, and all of them were excellent. For our main course, we had the beef ribs, and they were absolutely outstanding. Definitely a must. The restaurant was clean, the food came out in good time, and the staff consistently checked on us throughout the meal to make sure everything was going well. Everyone was friendly and attentive, which made for a very enjoyable dining experience. One thing to keep in mind is that this isn't really a kid friendly restaurant. They don't provide high chairs or many conveniences for young children, and they make that clear. That said, they were never rude about it. We brought our own clip-on high chair, and they were perfectly accommodating. The staff was also very kind and friendly to our 15-month-old son, which we really appreciated. Overall, the food and service were excellent, and we'd definitely come back--especially for those beef ribs!

    I visited Gulfstream in Newport Beach today, July 9, 2026, and chose to sit in the outdoor lounge…read morearea where drinks and small bites are served. I left at approximately 2:22 p.m. The atmosphere was great, but I was disappointed with the service. My server, Candy, checked on me only a couple of times during my visit. I understand that servers get busy, and I have no issue when another team member delivers food or drinks. However, after my drink arrived, I waited quite a while without anyone checking back in. Eventually, I had to go inside and ask the bartender for my check because no one had come by. When Candy saw me inside, she mentioned that she had been keeping an eye on me. I respectfully told her I was disappointed because I didn't feel attended to. I have worked in the restaurant industry myself, and my brother has been a General Manager for The Cheesecake Factory, so I understand how demanding restaurant service can be. This did not seem like a situation where the restaurant was overwhelmed, as it was not particularly busy during my visit. I want to be clear that my intention is not to get anyone in trouble. In fact, I still left Candy a good tip because I know firsthand how challenging serving can be. My hope is simply that Gulfstream reminds its staff to give the same level of attention to every guest, including those seated in the outdoor lounge area. Every customer should feel equally valued, regardless of where they are seated.
