    It was Christmas so it was a little noisier than normal due to Christmas parties. Because it’s so busy at Christmas time we had to wait a half hour for our table.

    Bayside is one of the best restaurants in Orange County. Wonderful ambiance, always excellent service by our favorite Mauvie and great food. Lot of Christmas celebrations last night including ours with one of our great friends. Also love Nila, who is always as sweet as she can be up front. Exceptional evening ♥️

    A solid, longstanding, local dining experience. Good food, good service and festively decorated for the holidays. The maitre d’ was a little surly when I asked for a different table - but other than that an overall pleasant experience. Bar was hopping past 10 - especially with the Live music - Note: while food is good, this is not an intimate, eclectic dining experience , but if you want a lively larger restaurant with local flair, it’s an winner.

    Hello, this restaurant is so accommodating and professional. The service, the food and the hostess are all excellent. So for a business meeting, a celebration, or just a great evening for date night, this is the place. From the french fries, rack of lamb,, Seabass, house salad with the marinated anchovies were excellent. The Grand Marnier soufflé is not to be missed, but oh let’s not forget about the Meyer rum bread pudding. We also topped it off with sorbet.
