Places to Eat in Newport Beach
Hungry, but don’t know where to go? These are some of my favorite places to eat in Newport Beach that don’t disappoint
The Cannery
One of my favorite go to restaurants in Newport Beach. Reservations are usually needed for downstairs but I prefer upstairs. The menus are different but if you ask you can usually order off either. I almost always order the kung pow calamari, the cannery roll and a cocktail or two. It can be a bit crowded but grab a drink and keep your eye out for a table.
The Cannery – 3010 Lafayette Ave, Newport Beach, CA 92663
A Restaurant
The food here is so good, the service, the cocktails, it’s always an A++. It is one of those restaurants that everyone knows and likes, the booths are comfortable the lighting is dim and you should probably make a reservation ahead of time because it is often packed. It is a steak house with killer martinis.
A Restaurant – 3334 West Coast Hwy, Newport Beach, CA 92663
Eat Chow
Casual dining with great food! Some favorites from there are truffle fries, bbq salmon salad, Baja fish tacos and the mimosa sampler for brunch.
Eat Chow – 211 62nd St, Newport Beach, CA 92663

Fable and Spirit
Super stylie newer place down by Lido Marina. The food is amazing and recently received a Michelin nod. Make a reservation if you want to go on the weekend, you won’t be disappointed and if they have a spot open for brunch grab it!
Fable and Spirit – 3441 Via Lido, Newport Beach, CA 92663
Louie’s by the Bay
Louie’s is right on the water on PCH and one of our go to spots in Newport. They have happy hour every day until 6 and have a great small plate happy hour selection that lets you try a few different dishes. Some of my favorites are the cacio e pepe and the crispy lasagna. If you like desserts, my go to is an espresso martini with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Ho Sum Bistro
This place is amazing, it’s more of a pick up to go kind of spot but they have a few tables and a great Sunday brunch. I have friends that come to visit from out of town and this is the one spot they have to stop (like how some people are crazy about In-N-Out). They are known for the Combo Salad, just try it, everyone likes it. It’s Asian Fusion with a California Twist.
