Best Lunch Restaurants in Newport Beach

A unique, beautiful experience! Difficult to reserve a table, as they tend to be extremely popular, and there's a good reason for that! The outdoor seating, even on a cold night, was warm and cozy. They offered seasonal apple cider, spiked or non-alcoholic, to keep guests warm. The atmosphere in the garden under beautiful lights is magical. The service was excellent, with the server approaching our table just enough times without being interruptive. The food was extremely fresh and delicious. I would have preferred one of the specials but felt it was overpriced. Expect to pay somewhere around $100 per guest, with a glass of wine and a shared dessert, although it could be a little less or a lot more, depending upon your selections. Worth it for a romantic, unique dining experience.

Had a great birthday lunch with friends the staff and restaurant really made me feel special with the personalized birthday dessert in the complementary sparkling wine at the beginning of our meal

I love dining at Nobu! always such a good experience when I go there. The drinks were delicious, the servers were amazing! I just didn’t appreciate the fact that the person who greeted me kept mentioning that I am only allotted my table for a certain amount of time. My server could’ve given us a gentle reminder. I don’t need to be prompted 2/3 times.

Great view and atmosphere. They have a great host. She is very pleasant, professional and competent. Did not catch her name, but she is from Argentina. The view of the Newport Harbor and the atmosphere are phenomenal. It’s mostly French. Me and my friend, we both had Stake with fries. The food was good, but not great. The fries, were excellent, though. I would come back and try different items in the menu.

Angelina was great! All employees we enter acted with were amazing. We will be back
