Great food and ambiance.
Amazing view and decor. Great for special occasions. Highly recommend this place.

A good friend planned a group birthday party here, and it was fantastic. Excellent food, a beautiful location right in the water, and the service by the staff working that day was superb. I wouldn't hesitate to come back.
The ambiance here was perfect.
We walked in on a mellow Sunday evening and got drinks at the bar with Chandler. Our table was preset by Arturo & he gave us the perfect food journey. We left most of our ordering up to him and we weren't disappointed. We will definitely b
Love the food, love the view!! The brunch is incredible.
This is a great place to with friends and celebrate a special occasion

Hi John, Maybe I could have improved my rating if you'd take some constructive criticism. I tried to get through the crab cakes since the initial bites weren't too bad, but by the second one it was quite unbearable, so I chugged a ton of w

The staff were very friendly and it's a cute location but there were a few notes of the night regarding the food. Asides from the good drinks and mimosas the food was very mediocre tasting especially for the price point. The only thing I would
I visited Shorebird on a Friday evening for happy hour.
Parking was a bit difficult right outside the restaurant, so I ended up parking in a nearby lot a short walk away. The ambiance was calm & there weren't too many people. My sister & I shared the catalina roll, lido roll, & crispy cau
My friend brought me here for a birthday brunch.
It was my first time here and I must say that I'm impressed. I love the architecture and the look of the building. I'm also a huge fan of the waterfront dining. Loved the open patio. I ordered the chiliques and it was so delicious. Our serv
Ordered the crab cakes and scallop entree.
The crab cakes were very salty! The scallops were better but still more than I would have liked. Only reason I could eat it was by mixing it with the bland potatoes. Both these dishes could have been phenomenal since everything was cooked to perfecti

I was craving a cute lunch spot by the water, so we decided to stop by Shoreline on a Tuesday afternoon (federal holiday). It wasn't too busy, and the hostess sat us immediately. We were seated outside with heaters and a gorgeous view of the mar

Shorebird is a fantastic spot for food, vibes and for any occasion or just a great meal. I ordered the Carne Adovada Y Huevos, off of the weekday brunch and it was AMAZING! I thought the prices are very reasonable for the food quality, taste and port

I took my boyfriend here for his birthday on a weekday night, and unfortunately, it was a letdown. The restaurant wasn't busy at all, there were only a few other tables yet our server was barely around. We constantly had to wait whenever we need

Went there for Sunday brunch.
The location itself is great. Next to the harbor and you can see all the boats tied up and great place to people watch. There is street parking but that goes by quick. They do validated parking if you park next door Service was attentive and profe

Love this location in Newport it's so much better than Palm Desert! Beautifully decorated, bartenders are very friendly and knowledgeable! Once seated our waitress was amazing. Sushi is on point!
Enjoyed a midweek birthday lunch here.
Beautiful space overlooking the marina area with a beautifully designed ambiance. It was quite quiet on a weekday, so if you are looking for something near the water that's more tucked away and quiet, this could be a great spot. The evening am
Loved this place.
Went with a group of 8 and had excellent service and fantastic food. The apps we had were meatballs and the deviled eggs. Everyone enjoyed their entrees from the bison short ribs and the ribeye as well as the salmon. Can't wait to go back!
Our service was very good.
We wanted a view of the water and they accommodated us by putting is right on the marina with a beautiful view of several yachts. The food was fresh , flavorful, and prepared perfectly. The chicken was especially flavorful. We were very happy with

Had a birthday luncheon at Shorebird with a group of friends. We sat outside and it was a beautiful view of the marina. The food was very good and the service was excellent. Would definitely go back.
Shorebird is an absolutely beautiful restaurant.
They do have patio seating, but the restaurant has retractable doors so even the inside seating feels open with fresh air. Located right next to the channel, you get a view of all the boats passing by while you eat. // FOOD // Oysters on the half s
Wonderful birthday dinner! Sushi rolls were great and fresh.
Sea bass was perfectly cooked and we shared starters for the table.
Food was good, but not great.
Also wished they had more entree options for lunch besides just brunch-type of food. We tried the fried avocadoes for apps, then we each got a chicken & waffles, crab eggs benedict, swordfish burger, chicken chillaquiles. They have decent porti

A beautiful place by the beach.
Cubano was amazing. Skirt steak was amazing as well. Coffee was ok but the food made up for it.

I keep meaning to go back. Decor and ambiance is great. View of marina boats are nice. Saving for special occasion. $$$$

Food was good & tasty & hot! Service was excellent & servers were prompt & attentive - no complaints...
Great food by the marina.
Staff was amazing will definitely be going back to try the other items on the menu.
Loud atmosphere but tasty dishes
Food was good, but this place is LOUD. Extensive (and expensive) wine & cocktail menu - drinks are strong. My roasted chicken was delicious. Slaw could have used less mayo, but tasty. Colleagues all seemed to love what they ordered.

Crab cakes appetizer was good The filet dish was not good salty the sauce was so overwhelming gross Paloma was meh The host they had no hi nothing just standing there mind u not busy last night
This place was good for appetizers and drinks.
I ordered the A5 Wagyu Meatballs and those were good with an Asian Zing taste to them. I ordered the Filet Mignon, medium temperature but was brought well done. It was accompanied by garlic risotto that was tasty but I felt they added too much bordel
Why do they take reservations and requests for special
Why do they take reservations and requests for special accommodation and then not fulfill requests? I made a reservation for 6PM for an anniversary, I requested to be seated near the water. I got there at 6, and proceeded to wait for 20 minutes to

The ambiance and and views are beautiful.
They were able to accommodate our large party with no issues. However, I feel the vibes do not go along with the food & service. Which is such a shame because I feel they have so much potential. If you want a cute date spot or a vibey spot to han
Amazing atmosphere, very chilled on a beautiful Sunday.
The staff are very pleasant, although could be a bit more aware when we run out of drinks. Portion is perfect and price reasonable for Balboa. We re looking forward to come back again for dinner. Try the raw bar, sushi is very fresh and nicely presen

Great view, great drinks.
I had the Old-Fashioned and my wife had the Starry Night, both were delicious. For dinner, I had the filet mignon. The meat itself was good, but the risotto was very mushy. My wife had the Chilean sea bass, which was far too buttery the fish was over
I have never not given a 5 star review.
But unfortunately this is my first. Foods not necessarily bad. But it's not worth the price, and the service was totally below average. My largest complaint firstly is that we were in a party of 6, some may say that's a large enough part

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Shorebird Restaurant Newport Beach at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Shorebird Restaurant Newport Beach page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* EternalAnt36, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* EternalAnt36 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to EternalAnt36 for any questions Peter may have as EternalAnt36 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* EternalAnt36 now uses their connections at Shorebird Restaurant Newport Beach to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If EternalAnt36 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, EternalAnt36 receives the $200 reward which is credited to EternalAnt36's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Shorebird Restaurant Newport Beach!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
