One of a few LA staple restaurants that has found a home in Newport along with Fig & Olive and Café Gratitude (if you want a measuring stick)
One of the best restaurants we ever been jn the US. We loved their brunch . Great Mexican food in a posh setting. We can't wait to be back to either LA or Newport Beach to dine there again.
Great happy hour until 7p includes a nice menu of food and drink offerings in the bar area. Also, live music and TVs to keep you thoroughly entertained!
One of my favorite restaurants in OC, all of the appetizers are a must. Loved the Main lobster tail and the braised short rib enchiladas as well
A 4.5 for me. http://www.honeywhatscooking.com/2016/08/upscale-delicious-mexican-red-o-newport-beach-ca.html/Favorite: Short Rib Enchilada
My friends and I ordered everything off of the Happy Hour menu ! We loved everything, but I absolutely loved the tamales !
Sea bass tasted like they put a whole stick of butter in it. In a good way. Also topped with this spicy flavorful crust. Just incredible.
Hilariously fancy and crazy expensive Mexican food . Went with waitress suggestion of carne asada . It was good, but not $50 good. I've had as good tasting carne asada for about a fifth of the cost here
Tuesday night and place is packed. Live music . Good service and food was excellent. Definitely coming back.
U have to order the guacamole sampler 💚 was so amazing .. And the lamp mole negra was good
The mole lamb dish was excellent add the casa de dragones tequila which went down too smoothly!
The queso fundido is good. I also had the carnitas tacos that were also very good.
The churros were delicious when dipped in the caramel or Khalua sauce.
Guacamole was awesome. Crab and shrimp enchiladas were good as well . Unless you like pricey wine I would avoid the Berringer Chard. $23- ouch
The plantains (side dish) are fantastic with the black beans that come with all the dishes.
Cochinita Pibil - delicious, tender slow-cooked pork . Also try the guacamole sampler
I found the food a little salty. I usually order my filet mignon medium well , but because the filet was too thick it was too rare for my liking. The place is classy and I'd Iove to visit again.
Great food. Lamb in mole was wonderful and so was the cucumber guacamole
If you like spice, order the Alacran Margarita , and ask for the habanero salsa with your chips
The valet staff will let you park for free if you are picking up a to go order.
Our food was only OK and I was served the short rib sopas instead of the pork belly I ordered No charge but somehow getting an ok tasting incorrect order for free is not a goal for anyone that I know.
Amazing ribeye with lobster
Amazing service and delicious lamb mole ! Try the tastings!
Get the Alacran Margarita for a spicy twist on a staple.
This is gourmet Mexican food at it's best in OC..
Amazing food! Don't miss the Duck Taquitos !
Get the guacamole sampler . It's so amazing!
Ask for the habanero salsa if you like heat
Come here for happy hour 3-7pm!
Try the habanero salsa if you dare. Not on the menu .
Pork belly sopes are amazing!
Everything. Bring your full wallet
As of September 1st , 2019 changed there brunch to a buffet and is ok but not really good quality you expect for I’m here
I believe it needs to work it kinks out first, but the food was good!
Seating on the center Bar is best place.
Get the Carne Asada NY steak .
Great food good for catering
Ambiance gets a 10. Food gets slightly above average 6.
Desserts are the best part!
Get the jalapeño margarita

Amazing decor. Love the fire pits and open air seating throughout the restaurant. The food was just as tasty as you'd expect for such a beautiful place. You must try it! - Aaron Biebert
Try the seafood fajitas and the El Cholo Margarita! - Marco Guzman
Best outdoor shopping mall nice view and gorgeous fountain if you want some where quiet to shop 👍🏼 - Heidi B
I love their stew, shepherds pie, baked potatoes, gaelic chicken, and apple pie (with caramel) here! Great atmosphere too. - Anne King
Sometimes it's a little sticky and sometimes a little smelly due to age, but it's comfortable. Feels like a neighborhood theater even though it shows the most recent movies. - Henry Abrams
