Searing By The Sea - Newport Beach

Came to this restaurant with a group of work colleagues. A few of us had the surf and turf and a variety of appetizers. Mine was delicious! The service was great, and the view of the harbor was impeccable.

3-6pm Happy Hour! Everyday!!!! So if you dont have reservation go upstairs since its first come first serve with great sushi menu! They have valet parking or you can park on the street which can be challenging during weekends. We got slider, j popper, albacore sashimi and 911 roll. With perfect ending of creme brûlée All perfect size and price! We really enjoyed our food but if you starving happy hours during weekends is not a wise decision! Perfect view and fresh fish will make your day!

Gabriel was amazing! Honestly best sushi I've had in a while. Happy hour is just the best!

What a great spot! Great seafood and honestly not that pricey- especially for the apps and starters. We got: Caesar salad: delicious, fresh, shredded cheese, well dressed and the croutons were so good! Calamari: also so good, especially the dipping sauces . Clam chowder : $10 and your moneys worth it's so creamy and delicious! The red snapper plate was pretty good especially the mashed potatoes! Overall good but not AMAZING! But a good go to spot especially for apps and starters !

This time, we celebrated my niece's first birthday, and she was absolutely thrilled. Normally a picky eater, she loved every dish we ordered. We kicked things off with tuna tartare, crab cakes, oysters, and clam chowder. The tuna tartare was incredibly fresh with just the right amount of spice. The crab cake was exceptional; usually, I find them loaded with filler, but this one was all crab. It was served with a delicious avocado crème fraîche that complemented it perfectly. Clam chowder is a common offering, but this one stood out as particularly tasty. As someone who often orders clam chowder, I can tell you that many places miss the mark on freshness, but this one was just right—not too thick or thin and without that unpleasant fishy taste. The oysters were fresh and tasty, though I wish they had offered a mignonette instead of just horseradish and cocktail sauce. For lunch, I had the wedge salad and lobster corn bisque. I typically prefer ranch dressing on my wedge, but their homemade blue cheese dressing was surprisingly delightful. The lettuce was served very cold, which I usually don't like, but it was a hot day so it was refreshing. Overall, it was a fantastic salad. The lobster corn bisque was unique and quite good, although it was thicker than I usually prefer, so I probably wouldn’t order it again. For dessert, we enjoyed key lime pie and chocolate cake. They even generously provided a complimentary chocolate cake for baby Ryley, who was fascinated by the candle and managed to blow it out! The key lime pie was chilled and honestly the best I’ve ever had. I can’t recall our server’s name, but she was fantastic—full of personality and humor, making us all laugh. She was also very accommodating regarding my sister's soy allergy, informing us about any items that contained soy. I plan to keep coming to The Cannery for years to come. I absolutely love this place!
