The service was terrible, far worse than I have ever experienced there. What had been one of my favorite restaurants in Newport Beach, is now, at best, questionable. For early on a December Sunday evening, they were caught flatfooted, and a complimentary glass of wine doesn't make up for the disappointment. Grateful that one waitress was able to save our experience - sorry I do not recall her name.

Very attractive restaurant with excellent service. The appetizer and 3 of the meals were great. Unfortunately, mine was sent back. I ordered rack of lamb, medium rare. It was delivered medium+. Also the chine bone had not been cut or removed, so it was impossible to cut the chops. Certainly not the preparation I would expect at a restaurant of this caliber

Ambience is beautiful. The food is great from start to finish. Many restaurants you go to the desserts are mediocre. They don’t do that at the winery. The desserts are incredible along with the rest of the food. The only thing I would’ve skipped was the seafood tower a bit expensive for what you get. Definitely a must dine experience.

This is not the place to go for Thanksgiving dinner folks. The turkey plate was cold and dry. I paid almost $600, including tip for 4 people, and we all ate Inn and Out after. My guests felt bad that the food was so expensive and so poorly prepared. Never again! The service here was also a joke!

Always a wonderful time here! I have never visited during the holiday. So, to take my parents here for Thanksgiving was so special and the service was fast. I appreciate the fixed menu as I believe that made things move quickly. Our server was amazing I forget his name but he was a gentleman with glasses. I appreciate him for working on Thanksgiving

Kevin was a fantastic server. He regularly checked on us, anticipated our needs and made sure that we were taken care of from the moment we sat down till we said goodbye. 5 stars for Kevin. The food was good and the vibe amazing. A solid spot for a quick and nice thanksgiving dinner without the hassle and headache or cooking or cleanup.

My boyfriend took me to dinner for my birthday, and we loved everything. Brian was our server; he did a great job! The food was so delicious and the ambience was perfect. I am a vegan, and it really helps that you offer some vegan items on the menu so myself and others can enjoy your restaurant. We can’t wait to go back :).

Loved the ambiance and peaceful harbor view. The food was excellent. When we arrived, there were only a few guests, and when we left, the main dining room was full, which may be why the service dragged. The reason this was 4 stars instead of 5 is that our meal was 2.5 hours (5:30-8:00). Our entrees were served at 6:45 and didn’t get our check until 8:15.

I was so disappointed with this place especially after reading all the great reviews. We went last night and after being seated for well over an hour, we still had not even received the bread and butter we ordered. The server was nowhere in sight. Only after we started complaining to the manager did we finally get some food. The food was disappointing once it finally came. We will definitely not be going back.

The food was amazing, and the ambience was very warm and inviting. The staff was attentive and we even got to meet the owner JC and he came to our table and spoke with us for a while. He also gave us a lesson on some of the cheeses that we were consuming as we had ordered a charcuterie board. Fantastic experience and we will be going back! Glen Barbee, MD

The winery is a great place to entertain for business clients who came out of town. The ambience is great. Service is attentive and quick. Food was outstanding. We took the bison and rip eye special as well as the Chilean sea bass, which were amazing. We had one of the best calamari I have ever had as a starter. Will definitely come again.

Worst service. Asked twice for a second glass of wine and finally had to go to the bar myself. Food was ok for a budget prices restaurant but not up to fine dining standards. The salmon was over cooked, the steak was grisly and the cioppino was so-so with a very small amount of seafood. The service really spoiled the whole experience.

I’ve always spoke highly of The Winery in Newport Beach and constantly recommended it. Unfortunately my last experience was terrible. The wait time for our food was ridiculous which I could have set aside if our food was actually worth it but unfortunately it was not up to the standards as it had been in the past. Not to mention we set this reservation for my birthday but due to the fact that the meal took so long and we needed to pick up our child I was given a terrible dried up piece cake in a to go container. Extremely disappointed.
