Booked a reservation, 5 minutes prior to mg dinner time they called and canceled us.

The steak and lobster combo is so delicious($75.00), the place so beautiful with the outside patio with beach view

Love the most beautiful ocean views and all the luxury ships that drive by.

Great restaurant. I come here daily and love it here. They almost always have live music. Took some time to get a waiter though.

A+O is my Goto when friends come into town! Great atmosphere and the staff are always so kind and helpful!

Excellent service, truly good food and an amazing view. Validated valet parking. And a fun crowd at the bar.

Worst experience

Worst experience ever !!!
Do not come here under any circumstances.

The food was good, very cosy atmosphere..
I will recommend it.

Average food and service. Very nice terrace opposite the port

Sat at table next to water with heater...loved it! Had the Clam Chowder AND the Lobster Bisque and Scallops were the best!! Great service and price!

We ordered salmon and gnocchi plus the local summer salad with chicken which were amazing! Kids menu was solid and the cookies were a hit.

Very nice stuff but not good food

Great foodnand service in this amazing and beautiful location.

Judging by the other servers/bartenders, it seems like a hospitable place. I guess I had the one bartender that had some kind of attitude. I apologized and changed my mind to have a tab and requested to pay out, he didn’t say a word with a gritty look. Good thing my scallops were good. Scallops and gin/tonic (17.00) came out to be $85. And that’s during happy hour.

Your valet parking is validated by eating here.

Great view of the marina.

Food is decent

Service was friendly

Came on a Sunday late afternoon

**Superb Dining Experience with a Minor Gluten-Free Shortcoming**

A+O Restaurant | Bar provided me with an outstanding dining experience that showcased remarkable service, delectable food, and an exceptionally pet-friendly attitude. From the moment I walked in, it was clear that this establishment truly values its patrons and their four-legged friends.

The service was beyond exceptional - the staff's attention to detail and genuine warmth made me feel right at home. One gesture that particularly impressed me was their consideration for my furry companion. They didn't just welcome dogs, they went the extra mile by ensuring a fresh water dish was always available, enhancing the overall experience for both me and my pet.

The highlight of the culinary journey was undoubtedly their recommended burger, which I found to be incredibly flavorful, even without the bun due to my gluten allergy. It's commendable that they cater to dietary restrictions, and the fact that I could enjoy a delicious meal while staying gluten-free was a major plus. Admittedly, some items on the menu were on the pricier side, but the quality of the food largely justified the cost.

While my overall experience was exceptional, there was one minor drawback that prevented me from awarding a perfect rating. A+O Restaurant | Bar, unfortunately, lacks a variety of gluten-free options beyond salads. This limitation was a bit disappointing, especially given the effort they put into accommodating guests with allergies. Adding more diverse gluten-free choices to the menu would undoubtedly elevate the dining experience even further.

In conclusion, A+O Restaurant | Bar is a standout establishment that combines impeccable service, fantastic pet-friendly features, and delectable food. My experience was near-perfect, and I'm particularly appreciative of their effort to cater to my gluten allergy. Though I'm docking one star due to the limited gluten-free options, I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking an unforgettable dining experience.

Great place to meet friends or for a business lunch. They have free valet when eating at the restaurant and the food, service and ambiance is great! The views are a given. Absolutely beautiful!

Great view, drinks, & the best lobster bisque we ever had. Definitely coming back.

브런치를 하러갔고 뷰도 맛도 그럭저럭 괜찮았고
맞이하는 직원들은 괜찮았는데 서빙하는 친구들의 서비스는 좀 불편했다

Dined here for Sunday brunch and had a great time. The weather was nice so we opted for the outdoor seating with amazing views of the harbor and boats. There’s open outdoor seating with fire pits and a nice bar inside.
Our waitress was fun and friendly. The crab cakes tasted flavorful and was paired with a delicious sauce. I decided to try the AO burger with their veggie patty and it was SO GOOD! The caramelized onions and 1000 island sauce on it was amazing! What stood out to me was the brioche bun that was cooked to perfection and tasted wonderful. My mom ordered the Cesar salad with salmon. The salmon was cooked perfectly and so were the homemade croutons.
The views here while dining are great. There is complimentary parking at the resort for the restaurant. Overall, we enjoyed ourselves, the food, service, and the views.
This place has been added to the brunch rotation for sure!

The service at A+O Restaurant was excellent. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and made excellent recommendations. He was also very attentive and made sure that we had everything we needed.

Overall, I had a wonderful experience at A+O Restaurant. The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was perfect. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a special dining experience in Newport Beach.

The view is beautiful, the cocktails tasty, s d the flood incredible. I keep coming back to this place because the food never fails and they make a great espresso martini.

Total 5 star!! ???? ???? everyone was so friendly
Great food!!

High end hotel restaurant with both indoor and patio seating. Lots of glam and energy. It's very noisy and loud, and one can barely hear conversations at times. When live music is playing, it's even worse. The food is solidly good and tasty, not original or memorable. The service is friendly but not attentive -- water glasses can go unfilled. Valet parking is miserably slow -- you may easily wait 20 minutes for your car. Very expensive. Few vegetarian options. Go here for festive people watching and a high energy meal, not for an important conversation or distinctive food.
