Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Newport Beach

The best clam chowder,and Chilean sea bass. Get ready to have a spendy bill at the end of dinner but it’s worth it! My only complaint is that the sticky toffee pudding wasn’t that great - it wasn’t dense and sticky like I’m used to. Rather it was fluffy and kind of dry, closer to a bran muffin

Food was great as usual. Shared the pate, which was very good. Plenty of pate, grilled whole grain bread, variety of fruits, pickled red onion, pickled green onion slices(first time having this-it was slightly sweet & tasty), & jam. For my entree,I ordered my usual Gorgonzola & Granny Smith apple with grilled chicken. MUCH better than my last visit. My only complaint last visit was the lone thin slice of apple. That’s correct. ONE slice of apple. Perhaps the kitchen supervisor was new(?). Anyway, the salad was great. My friend had the rare grilled tuna sandwich. VERY good. My last visit, my MIL had the same & was also very pleased with her choice. We will continue to be regular patrons. The food & service are great. The brief tour of the garden/nursery is a nice distraction from LA traffic & the hustle of city life.

The food at Great Maple is always presented beautifully and always tastes delicious. Today was unusually crowded. The noise level was high and the service was a bit slower than usual. If you dine here, ask to sit with Arianna. We were not in her section today.

It was absolutely delicious the food was excellent the service was fabulous I ate so much I was so full

Food was very good. Had some cheese and meats to start and the board was very well presented. Our server, Staci and her support staff were spot on throughout dinner. I would also recommend leaving room for dessert. Looks of great choices to share.
