Woody's Wharf - American restaurant in Newport Beach - 2318 Newport Blvd, USA

I find it hard to have great food close to LA. This place definitely does it. Cute little place, things are fairly priced and delicious! Waiters are very nice and happy. We had the grilled lobster and jumbo shrimp tacos. VERY good and light. Portions are good, filling. Would recommend. Nothing fancy, the food speaks for itself and there’s a great view. Parking on premises too.

I really like this restaurant! The service is always good, the staff is very friendly and the food is always good. You get a great view of Newport Harbor. I always just get the baseball cut Top Sirloin and it is so good!! I’m not a fish eater. The one thing I will say is it’s always kind of loud in here. This is not a place I would take children to, because of how loud it is. But I love Woodys Wharf!

One of the best places you can eat at in Newport Beach! Prices are very fair, service was excellent despite it being a very busy place and the view outside was beautiful. Me and my family ordered the Nachos and Lamb Lollipops as an appetizer, the small size Nachos were still gigantic and fed our whole family! The lamb was so delicately cooked and the sauces given added to the taste tenfold. For entrees we ordered the Clam Chowder, Kobe Beef Sliders, Mahi-mahi tacos and I personally had the Halibut. Each and every meal was nothing short of an explosion of deliciousness in every bite and the presentation was stunning with every dish. We were told by our kind server that the cooks in the kitchen were very excited to get our food out. As someone who works in a kitchen myself, it makes me very happy to see people who love their job and love to cook. I would love cooking here too if the food looked and tasted this good! Anytime we come to Newport, Woody's will always be on the menu. Do not pass this place up!

Dropped in for lunch with 4 other friends. We sat on covered patio next to docks. Great view! All 5 of us loved the grub we had. Service was ok. Prices are good and would definitely eat here again.

Great view & service! Food was so good & big portions! We also shared a waffle but totally forgot to take a picture. They have bottomless mimosas which looked really good too.

Nice views, delicious food, and great service. Highly recommend the clam chowder, one of the best I’ve ever had. P.S. they don’t have lobster rolls here which was confusing because there’s so many reviews on them. They have lobster tacos though.

Super fun bar - we went there for a nightcap and ended up sitting next to a magician who showed us amazing magic. If anything, go here just to get a chance to meet the magician (if he’s there). The bar itself turns into a club at night which felt really bizarre but we left before it got clubby. the bartenders are really fun and we enjoyed their conversation while we were there. So glad we wandered over to this spot , would definitely go again. We didn’t eat there this time but I definitely want to try their bang bang shrimp next time we go.

Love our local restaurant and wine bar right on the bay! The food is phenomenal, the staff is outstanding, and their restaurant week menu is divine! Really recommend the grilled romaine Caesar salad with the seafood paella!
