Nestled in the heart of Corona Del Mar lies the Bungalow. This charming Craftsman style restaurant is minutes from the heart of Newport Beach's premier business and shopping center, Fasion Island, yet it feels miles apart. Rich tones, dark woods, and private booths have made The Bungalow a dining favorite for residents and visitors alike, known for serving PRIME steaks, excellent seafood and magnificent martinis. We also feature an award winning wine list and proudly pour over twenty premium wines by the glass and over 220 premium bottled wines from our wine cellar.

    was very happy to be able to get reservations here for thanksgiving. seated on the patio near the fireplace, it was a great table! our server was very nice and professional when she was at the table. when our bisques were dropped my husband asked the food runner for black pepper that never came. ok no biggie. once apps were done we all sat with empty glasses until we flagged our server down. ( which again doesn’t sound like a big deal but our bill was $450 and it was my husband and i and two teenage boys. at this price point the service just needs to be a bit more attentive) the food was pretty good. i ordered the prime rib mid rare and that sucker was RARE. not even warm in the middle. the rest of the plates were cooked well and tasted good. i would probably return, most likely not on a holiday…it was just too packed and a bit short staffed.

    Festive and delicious. We went to the Bungalow for Thanksgiving dinner. The restaurant was decorated in a delightful festive manner. The service was excellent and the food delicious. We had a TDay turkey plate and a sea bass. Both exceptional. Thank you, Bungalow!

    We went for thanksgiving dinner and the food was great. I had prime rib and it was cooked well. Only thing I would suggest creamed horseradish that is thicker. The Turkey was great as well.

    Our waiter was terrific - the registration check-in - reservation people were very condescending. I've been going to Bungalow for 40 years and I have never been treated so take it or leave it. totally ruined my evening and especially because we brought friends. Suzanne Wyrick

    Service was great! Started with a couple cocktails that hit the spot. We had sea food, and the Chilian Sea Bass was fantastic. Started we a couple of wonderful appetizers. The oysters were delicious, and my son loved the steak tartar! We have been to the Bungalow several times and love returning for the great food!

    Service was terrible, plain and simple, I’m still embarrassed by it almost a week later. I was in shock at how rude the waiter was, seemed like the entire staff was hovering in the middle of the restaurant staring at us while we ate. Food was average, very disappointing. I really don’t understand, this restaurant appeared so nice, beautiful on all accounts. Never again, stay away, Do not eat here, avoid avoid avoid.

    We are somewhat new to bungalow. Love the vibe in the bar & upstairs dining. Don’t like downstairs at all. Booths are very comfortable & quiet. I recently had the sea bas, which i absolutely loved…also had salmon with crab, not so much. Looking forward to having Lamb, heard its great. Drinks are pretty good.
