Great service. My friend and I ate dinner at 5pm on a Friday evening. We ordered the prime rib prefix meal. Steak was cooked to order. Clam chowder was creamy and hearty. Also ordered lobster bisque but asked to replace it with clam chowder as the bisque tasted off.

A++all the way. Very nice and friendly staff. Gorgeous view and atmosphere. Great food for reasonable prices and for modest prices during happy hour. Happy hour is Monday to Friday 4 to 6. Drinks were very good too, especially margarita. For 4 happy hour plates and 2 drinks we spent only $50. I also have a suggestion for the owners to extend the desert choices. Now it has only a single choice and requires 30 min preparation.

Best Happy Hour in town!!!! Adrian was our server and he was fantastic!!! Very pleasant, personable and excellent service! He made our experience the best. I’ve been to the Chart House in Dana Point and the one that used to be in Newport (now closed) and I have to admit they are all outstanding. Would absolutely recommend coming here during your stay either for dinner or happy hour.

Overall, we had an enjoyable evening AND with the recent snow and icy conditions I'm going to assume that CH servers and kitchen staff were working with a few of the crew missing? We started on the wrong foot, seated after 6:55pm for a 6:30 reservation for two. The restaurant wasn't full, but it could be that seating was limited due to gaps in staffing. After being shown to our table, our drinks came out quickly, but the appetizers (my husband's Caesar salad and my lobster bisque) took another 20 min. For our entrees, my husband really enjoyed his NY strip steak (with blue cheese butter) but my halibut didn't hit the mark. We wrapped the night with a creme brulee tasting trio - five stars - and made it back to our hotel safely with the ice and snow. Overall, my best guess is that this is a fantastic, if pricey, restaurant that happened to have a tough night. Disappointing, but understandable.

We had a reservation for our anniversary and requested to have a window table. To our surprise, we were given a happy anniversary card hand signed by workers. Food was amazing. Service was phenomenal,
