I booked this spot for a large team appreciation dinner and it was great! The restaurant was very communicative prior to the event, gave me options and we had a great experience. There is a lot underneath the spot with free parking with validation. The ambiance of the restaurant is just GORGEOUS, sitting right on the ocean and marina. Very serene and beautiful. The bathrooms were clean and very nice. The bar was also very inviting and beautiful. Our server Michele was excellent! The entire staff assisted in filling water, and running food and drinks and were all exceptional. Michele greeted us immediately, was attentive from start to finish and helped us order the appropriate amount of appetizers for the group. The food was a 10/10. We ordered several appetizers but really loved the ahi avocado egg rolls, the crab cakes and all of the sushi starters. Dinner was phenomenal! I got the sea bass and several others ordered the pork chop and skirt steak. The food was amazing! Huge portions, amazing flavors and just over the top delicious! I can't wait to go back and try everything else on the menu that I may have missed! We ordered several desserts and espressos and the desserts were one of the many stars of the night! The brownie was fab and I was very impressed with the bananas foster. But DO NOT SLEEP on the carrot cake!! This should win awards! Even if you are full, order one to go! (You're welcome!) Please check this place out; I can't wait to go back! read more

We went for a large work party and were seated right away. First I will say the service was the standout here, all the humans we engaged with , were super kind and supportive. I have an allergy so I always have to navigate food carefully-they took such wonderful care of me, and made it so easy to feel comfortable. The view was great, I sat close to the water and enjoyed a bit of a breeze and a great view of the boats coming and going. The only issue we had, was getting cell service to call ubers for our large group after dinner lol. Over all great experience. read more

We came to Shorebird around 8 pm with a reservation for a larger party and waited about 10 minutes to be seated. The restaurant itself is spacious with a beautiful view of the water. Service was good throughout the meal, though nothing particularly stood out. We ordered several dishes to share, including the Butter Basted Hokkaido Scallops, The Shorebird, Swordfish, Prime Skirt Steak, Prime Skirt Steak Taco Platter, Chilean Seabass, Yellowtail, and Carrot Cake. Everything was definitely on the pricier side, but the quality reflected the price for most of the meal. The only miss was the Swordfish, which was too dry for us. My personal highlights were the Prime Skirt Steak, Chilean Seabass, and The Shorebird, especially the risotto that came with it. Everything tasted high quality and well prepared. We found street parking directly in front, which was free after 6 pm. There's also an underground lot where Shorebird validates two hours of parking. Overall, Shorebird is a great option for a special occasion or a nicer dinner out. I'd recommend making a reservation, especially if you're coming with a larger group. read more

I highly recommend the tin's dressed oysters and the tuna tataki! The sauce and toppings were so good and flavorful. It can be a little spicy but the kick added to the entire flavor profile. The tataki sauce was also delicious! Everything tasted very fresh. The regular oysters were good too, but I loved the speciality of the other ones more. I also got the white peach sangria and love how it came with real fruit inside. The ambiance is beautiful and service was great! read more

Shorebird - Seafood Near Me - Newport Beach, California

Shorebird is one of those places that looks great from the outside and actually delivers on the experience. We came in for Saturday morning brunch with friends and were greeted and seated pretty quickly. The restaurant itself is beautiful, especially with the views overlooking Newport Bay. Definitely a great setting for a weekend brunch. Our server was prompt, friendly, and accommodating throughout the meal. I went with the Knife & Fork Burrito and really enjoyed it. They nailed the potato to egg ratio, which I feel like breakfast burritos get wrong way too often. The salsa, guacamole, and sour cream on top all worked really well together and gave it a nice balance of flavors. It was also the perfect portion. I left satisfied without feeling like I needed to be rolled out of the restaurant. My wife got the crab eggs Benedict and really enjoyed hers as well. Overall, Shorebird offers just as good of an experience as it looks like it will from the outside. Beautiful restaurant, great views, good service, and a solid brunch. Definitely a spot I'd come back to whenever we're in town again! read more

Stopped by Shorebird in Newport Beach for drinks and oysters before heading out for the night, and it set the tone for a great evening. There is convenient underground parking on-site, though the spot gets noticeably busy after 7 PM. Oysters: We tried both the oysters on the half shell with smoked sherry mignonette and Tin's dressed oysters topped with ponzu, tobiko, and Tabasco. Both preparations were fantastic--exceptionally fresh, clean, and briny, with the dressed version bringing just the right punch of citrus and heat. Hamachi Crudo & Seared Tuna Tataki: Both raw plates were spot-on. The hamachi was delicate and buttery, while the seared tuna tataki had great texture and bright, clean seasoning that let the fish shine. Caesar Salad with Chicken: Crisp, well-dressed, and topped with juicy, nicely prepared chicken. A simple classic executed properly. Between the quality food, great drinks, and lively harbor-side energy, it's a great spot to kick off a night out. read more

Shorebird in Newport Beach is such a great spot, though service could've been a bit better and more attentive given the price point. We kicked off dinner with a round of drinks: an espresso martini with a nice touch of cinnamon, a refreshing margarita, a tall draft beer, and a tequila margarita. Everything from the bar was top-notch. The seafood was definitely the highlight. We ordered a massive spread of oysters on the half shell, both classic and dressed with ponzu, scallions, and tobiko. We also shared a fantastic salmon and avocado specialty roll, along with sashimi and crudo plates that tasted super fresh. Overall, the coastal vibe is fantastic and the food and drinks are great, but hopefully service is a bit sharper next time! read more

Brought a friend and her family here to celebrate a milestone birthday on a Saturday afternoon. We were really hoping to sit in the patio, or at least near it but, unfortunately we were sat at a booth alongside the interior wall. Totally understandable as it's peak summer, and a weekend, they get busy. The restaurant was hot and humid. Now I'm sure they have AC, and even with all the windows and patio doors being open, they really should have opted to use the AC. The entire dining experience was uncomfortable. We ate our meal literally sweating. Even our server was sweating lol All our drinks went room temp in a matter of 10 minutes, we had to repeatedly ask for glasses of ice from the bar just to try and mitigate our body temperatures somehow. Also, the booth itself was incredibly tacky. And I don't mean visually tacky, I mean the texture. The feeling of plastic when it gets really old and it feels sticky to the touch, that tacky. You couldn't slide in or out of that booth if your life depended on it. And again, considering how humid and hot the interior was, it only made it worse. The lighting was also so dim that it gave the vibes of being sat in the corner of a musky Denny's diner lol. Halfway through our meal they turned the lights off for dinner service (I get it, to set the mood) but it made the table so dark we had to ask them to turn them back on so we could see the food on our plates. It wasn't that the entire restaurant was dim, it's certain tables (and sadly ours was definitely one of them) We had a party of 6, and one person got their meal well before the rest of the table. We of course insisted she begin eating, which she did, and our remaining meals came out as soon as she was done with hers. The waiter removed her plate as he set down everyone else's lol. The food was good, but, again with how uncomfortable the environment was, it was hard to enjoy. The restaurant was also fairly empty throughout our meal. We got there before 5 so that awkward "linner" time frame. Even so, we had to flag down our waiter for another round of drinks, water, etc. The Shorebird absolutely has stunning views, and that's what they're known for. Their food is solid, mist dishes fairly justifies the high price point. This visit was just not their best. Overall service and ambiance, fell extremely flat. I set the bar high for my guests, as they traveled in from out of town and I raved about my experience from a few months back. Granted, I was sat at the patio, overlooking the beautiful view, and the service was impeccable. With all the stellar dining options in Newport, unless you find yourself at a table on the balcony, I don't think Shorebird is the obvious choice. You'll end up spending the money regardless so you may as well look for a spot that is guaranteed to meet the expectations of the price point without having to be dependent on a view. read more

Stopped in for happy hour on a Friday in July and it was pretty quiet at 3pm. It's unfortunate happy hour is only at the inside bar, when there's such beautiful patio and view, even when it's empty, since the bar is so dark. But it's still a beautiful restaurant. The lemon Caesar salad was extremely delicious. The dressing was perfect and not overly dressed and it was a good portion for happy hour. Their sushi was also very fresh, tasty and beautifully prepared. We also ordered their espresso martinis - their presentation is beautiful but this is the second time I've gotten them here and they are just kinda of stale tasting both times. It's like the espresso is old or burnt. Eh. Will have to get a different cocktail next time. Overall a good spot. read more

What a very pleasant surprise this place is! We had no expectations going in other than Yelp reviews and pictures. I ended up calling to make a reservation for my husband's birthday since Open Table was not letting me book a patio table. The gentleman on the phone was super helpful. We showed up and a nice patio table was ready for us. We ordered a bunch of appetizers- the avocado fries, tuna tataki and the deviled eggs. Usually restaurants ruin perfectly good deviled eggs by adding a bunch of crap in top. These were perfection. My entree was also delicious - the cubano sandwich with a side of cabbage/apple slaw. I feel like I ordered exactly right. Our server was fantastic and there were extra staff helping to keep our drinks full, I really appreciate that. At the end of the meal they brought my husband a birthday gelato. The only thing that made this dinner less than perfect was the parking situation. We parked in the lot below the restaurant but then could not figure out how to get one floor up. Better signage in the garage would have been great. Although it was nice that parking was validated. read more

Came here for Mother's Day brunch and it turned out to be one of my favorite brunch experiences. 5+++ stars on all fronts: ambiance, service, food! First of all, the harbor ocean views and interior decor are absolutely beautiful and airy. Love the ambiance!! Then our waitress was just the sweetest and made the experience so pleasant and warm. Finally, the FOOD. Omg - it's hard to be impressed by brunch food because you often get the feeling that you can just make it at home. But the food here was a culinary experience not easily replicated at home. We loved everything we ordered - oysters, chicken and waffles, the breakfast burrito, my cocktail - you can't go wrong with whatever you get! read more

Just for the overall experience, I'm willing to give it a 5 star rating. It's clean, modem, open, airy and right on the water overlooking muti million yachts when you eat, it's the best California life you can ask for. The food is definitely on the decent side, we enjoyed it! Service is standard. Definitely make a reservation ahead of time. We came in right when they open for business on a weekend morning and sat by the water. It's absolutely wonderful! I would come back next time when I'm in the area! read more

Location and views are beautiful. Service is good. Food and drinks are good. Came here on a Saturday evening for a friend's birthday dinner. She made a reservation for a table of 6, and we were sat by the water with great views. Buffalo onion rings- giant crispy, beer-battered onion rings on top of a buffalo sauce with blue cheese crumbles and tiny bits of celery. Crispy cauliflower- crispy, flavorful, so simple, but it was pure perfection. I'd get these again. Salmon carpaccio - beautiful presentation, looks and tastes like summer. Refreshing. I'd get it again. Aperol spritz - goes with the vibes of this place. Cubano - very flavorful and plentiful. Familiar, yet unique. I'd get it again. Key lime pie - I've had the best in Key West and this was comparable. The sorbet is also a refreshing palate cleanser. Brownie - decadent. Bananas Foster Split - plentiful, simple, delicious. read more

Came here for a birthday celebration, and it was an amazing time right by the water in Newport! The food and drinks were absolutely superb. We ordered the miso-soy glazed salmon and the hamachi roll, both were delicious. The service was excellent, and they were super accommodating about letting us share plates. The overall vibe is fantastic, and they even have a nice little outdoor seating area where you can hang out and relax while waiting for your table. Highly recommend! the vibe at night is just as good as it is for brunch! read more

Visited Shorebird for the first time recently. The food was okay, not the best, but I do want to visit again and give it another try...the atmosphere makes me want to love it so badly! Starting with parking, this is Newport so you need to be aware. There's an underground parking structure right to the left of the entrance (if your car is pointed towards the marina). Shorebird validates at the hostess stand, valid 2 hours. Atmosphere is great. It's clearly a more upscale (but casual enough) brunch spot on the marina. The decor is beautiful and high quality but not overly done nor overly extravagant. Can imagine the vibe leaning more formal in the evening because it does give "ocean club with the lights on" during the day. Menu items all sound and look delicious but the execution is slightly off. An example was with the lemon ricotta hot cakes - gorgeous in photos and such a great idea on flavors but they had a horrible bitter aftertaste that made them really hard to eat (about 1/4 way in I couldn't do it). Similarly the meatballs looked delicious but the meatball itself was not nearly as flavorful as it looked and sounded on the menu. Passion fruit margarita (zero proof) tasted like passion fruit flavored sparkling water. Was definitely a miss for us. Will try again and order different items, but honestly not sure another visit could make up for the disappointment and get this in my top 5. If it wasn't for the location, they would get my business once and I'd never look back... read more

Came to celebrate my cousin's 21st birthday with all the family & friends last night and it was an amazing experience. I would like to thank the staff for letting us rent out the place and providing excellent service for all 50 of us. My uncle spent almost 15k that night! Shout out to him for hosting! The beautiful interior strikes a nice balance of upscale and coastal vibe, with a modern design that feels welcoming. We were seated by the harbor with views of the ocean and yachts. It was stunning and love the natural light coming down on us as the sun was setting. It definitely felt like a movie scene. Lowkey tip: Parking is limited so get valet next door for $6. On the preselected menu, there were appetizers and then three types of entrees to choose from. My gf got the Chilean Sea-bass, I got the Filet Mignon with risotto, and my sister got the Crispy chicken dish. Everything was a 5/5, but my meat was a bit charred on the surface. It was still medium rare just how I like it, so it's still juicy. The Sea bass was soft and tender. The meat just melts on your mouth like butter. So good.As for the drinks I got a whiskey sour and it was tasty. My gf got the sunset cocktail, which tasted like a refreshing grapefruit. We also got a couple Caymus bottles from Napa that we brought over and it was bold, a bit tarty, and very smooth to drink. I forgot how much corkage fee was though. The whole night was fun and filled with good talks and laughter. Birthday girl had fun! It was splendid, indeed. The nice woman who served our side of the table was so fast and efficient. Im just amazed by how remembers all that stuff we wanted to order without asking twice. Brain capacity is at large, lol. Service was excellent. You guys gotta come and try if you haven't yet! read more

Visited for late lunch. This spot seems more brunch forward friendly/touristy. The staff was great, very attentive, and on it despite how busy they were. We got seated towards the back slightly away from the window- which was totally ok. We had the tomato and cheddar cheese grilled cheese, and also shared the jay birds chicken sandwhich which came with fries. Both were really good! The food is surprisingly good considering the location. Overall the spot can be a little loud with both younger patrons and out of town visitors. read more

The ambiance at Shorebird was really nice. Being right on the water overlooking the boats was definitely the highlight of the experience. There's also a very close parking garage which made getting there super convenient. Food-wise, everything was just okay. We had the steak and eggs and the portion was pretty small, but the steak itself was actually really good. The chimichurri sauce was disappointing though since it was blended too smooth and more like a liquid sauce without the fresh herb texture you usually expect. The chicken and waffles were mid overall. The waffles were bland, although the chicken was decent. The blueberry lemon ricotta pancakes were also just okay. The syrup tasted a little off and the lemon flavor was way too overpowering. I prefer just a hint of lemon, but these were definitely very lemon-forward. The passion fruit drop cocktail was probably my favorite thing we ordered. Sweet but still strong... my favorite! Also really enjoyed the butter and the fresh strawberry jam. We had a decent time and enjoyed the atmosphere, but nothing really stood out enough to put this place high on my return list. read more

I found my receipt and my server's name was Amanda. I just wanna put it out there that she was amazing and took really good care of us.

Came to Shorebird for brunch with my girlfriend's meetup group during OC restaurant week. The address is Newport Blvd but it's actually located on the bay behind the spaghetti factory and the crab cooker. There are parking spaces in front but they are paid parking through an app. There's also a parking structure just to the west, behind the crab cooker that parking is validated for patrons of Shorebird. I'll park there next time. Menu is brunch and lunch for the most part. We ordered the prix fixe restaurant week brunch. 2 courses plus a non alcoholic beverage for $35. I had the deviled eggs for my appetizer and the adovado and huevous for my main course. The deviled egg was rich and creamy. The main course was 2 eggs over medium on top of braised pork cooked in mild Mexican sauce and spices. It was served on a corn tortilla and came with sides of Guacamole and Pico de gallo. Everything tasted good. I also tried their bloody Mary. It was fantastic, well spiced and a generous pour. The views are wonderful on Newport harbor. I'm definitely interested in returning. read more

Came here for a Sunday brunch with family and absolutely loved it. We had a reservation for 6 and were seated on the patio with a gorgeous marina view. Service was fantastic from our waitress, and the food very much delivered. I ordered the veggie omelette with crispy herb potatoes, sourdough toast, and a lemon aioli for dipping... chef's kiss. Got to sample a bit of everyone's plates and my clear favorite was the lemon ricotta soufflé pancakes. Insane. Honorable mentions go to the chicken and waffles(spicy) and the wagyu burger. Both were excellent. The space itself is beautiful and open, buzzing with big groups celebrating which made it feel lively without being overwhelming. Parking garage on site and they validate for the first two hours, which is always appreciated. Easily one of my new favorite brunch spots in Newport and will absolutely be back. read more

It's time you've heard, that great food and service happen when dining at Shorebird. Came here solo for a 5:45 reservation and even though I was running late, the hostesses were warm and accommodating. I still got a beautiful table overlooking the water and boats, perfect sunset vibes. Started with a chilled Grey Goose martini with a twist... and it was so nice I had to order it twice. Clean, crisp, perfectly balanced. Paired beautifully with the dressed oysters -- fresh and generously sized. For my entrée, I had the filet mignon with mushroom risotto. The filet had a great sear on the outside and was tender and juicy inside. The risotto was savory and comforting (almost reminded me of Thanksgiving dressing) with perfectly cooked mushrooms and chives. Christian, my server, was attentive without hovering and made the experience feel polished yet relaxed. I normally skip dessert, but I treated myself to the key lime pie with what tasted like raspberry sherbet, and it was the perfect bright, refreshing finish. (Skipped the whipped cream just personal preference.) Only critique: the restrooms felt small for a restaurant of this caliber. Overall: romantic ambiance, great service, excellent martinis. Solo-dining friendly and definitely worth returning. read more

Came here for brunch on a Saturday and it wasn't too busy. Would have loved to sit in the sun/or by the water but was sat next to the brooms and mops in the corner of the restaurant but besides that it was fine. We had the lemon ricotta pancakes and the classic breakfast. The lemon ricotta pancake flavor was good but the texture was very gummy/chewy. My boyfriend enjoyed the classic breakfast though, but it's pretty hard to mess that one up. The potatoes were good on that dish but again, it has a very chewy texture. Perhaps it was mixed with tapioca starch? Ended our meal with an affogato and took a walk on the beach. I would like to come back and try the chicken and waffles because I saw a lot of people order that. Decent brunch spot with a nice view though! read more

Came here after a beautiful day whale watching. Got there around 12 and got super lucky to beat the rush! There's underground parking right next door which is so nice. Definitely make a reservation - we were lucky and there were open seats. The vibe is fancy American. Not too fancy - lots of sports on the tv and lots of people enjoying brunch. We opted more so for lunch. Tried the buffalo onion rings - good but nothing amazing to write home about. Just regular onion rings w buffalo sauce to dip. Not what we thought Chile and waffles - hard to screw up. Chicken was good and crispy! Would return for the espresso martini - delicious!! read more

I had mixed feelings about my experience at Shorebird. Unfortunately, the steaks were a major disappointment. I first ordered a filet mignon medium rare and it came out rare. I then ordered a ribeye, which was $70, also medium rare, and it arrived medium-well to well done. When I brought this up, the waiter blamed it on the lighting and told me this is how all of their steaks are cooked, which felt dismissive and made the situation uncomfortable. It discouraged me from even sending the steak back and my original order wasn't really acknowledged. On a positive note, the Cubano sandwich was excellent packed with flavor and easily the highlight of the meal. The Old Fashioned was well made, and while the spicy margarita was just okay, it was still drinkable. The waiter also picked up my glass early without asking me if I was done and ran away with it so fast... it still had my margarita in it. For a restaurant charging premium prices for steak, accuracy in cooking and better customer service are essential. read more

We came here for Saturday brunch, and the location right by the Newport Beach harbor makes it instantly special. The interior is modern, airy, and gives off a very chill, relaxed vibe. We ordered the scallops, which were beautifully cooked and paired with an excellent sauce. The Crab Egg Benedict and the omelette were also great--flavorful and generously portioned. The service was warm and attentive, which made the whole experience feel even more welcoming. Really enjoyed our experience here, and I'm already looking forward to coming back to try their dinner menu next time. read more

Solid spot for drinks and bites in the busy Newport Beach area. It's often hard to find a good spot to relax in the very busy and popular Balboa Island area but Shorbird is so great because of its cozy and modern California vibes and great service.

Also was able to find parking in front as well as there being a garage option too. A definite solid visit! read more

I was blown away. We came on New Year's Eve for dinner and everything was fantastic. The service was great and the food was phenomenal. It was a perfect romantic setting, where you can dress up or come casually dressed. A restaurant is tested when they are at maximum capacity and some restaurants drop their standards of food quality and service, but not here. The server made excellent recommendations and made sure we were taken care of. I ordered the sea bass with risotto and my husband ordered the pork chop, both were delicious. The balance of sweet, savory and salty worked really well with the pork. The lemon risotto & arugula salad added perfect freshness to the fish. The avocado fries were great, but the buffalo onion rings stole my heart. I can't recommend this place enough, I will be back. read more
