   We had reservations at Tommy Bahama in Newport Beach for an early dinner. The ambiance was positive with great music and lots of happy people enjoying the vibe. The hostesses were both welcoming and quite professional. We were seated at a nice table and our server Jeffery was stellar. A true professional who is kind, courteous and knowledgeable. We started with the famous coconut shrimp as an appetizer. My wife had the mojito and I had the mango ice tea and later my favorite friend, Don Julio 1942 on a large rock. We had an opportunity to visit with the amazing Pilar who just brings so much light and joy to the restaurant. Pilar is a true professional and an example of why this restaurant is so successful. We also had a visit from Brandon another true professional who is dedicated to quality customer care and service. We also had the please of saying hello to Megan, Natalie, and Kati. The team at Tommy Bahama is top shelf and treat us like family. There is a lot of love there. Jeffery took our entrees order and stopped by regularly to ensure satisfaction. My wife ordered the Mahi Mahi Tacos and I had the filet mignon entree. Everything was prepared and presented to perfection. My wife ordered the apricot cheesecake to take home and I had a cup of coffee. I highly recommend Tommy Bahama Restaurant to anyone looking for quality food, amazing service and a positive environment. Thanks TB Team 👏

   Very accommodating to a few dietary restrictions and the service was above average for how busy it was!

   Awesome service and Mahi Mahi tacos might be the best fish tacos in the area

   Sat at bar, bartenders very busy , but when got their attention service was good. Loved the Mac crusted Halibut. My freind had shrimp and scallops which I tasted and thought were excellent. One of the most consistent restaurants I go to.

   Overall, everything was excellent; however, we were disappointed to find that the website indicated Happy Hour was available from 3-5 pm daily, which is why we made our reservation for 4 pm. Upon receiving the menu, we learned that Happy Hour was only available at the bar. It would have been helpful if this detail was more clearly communicated on the website.

   Food was great decor was beautiful. Our waitress was slow really slow but other than that we had a great time. Hopefully next time we will get a waitress that’s not so slow. We still left to her good tip though highly recommend this place. Food is great atmosphere is awesome. Just don’t get a slow waitress. Enjoy.

   My guest's meal was incorrect. By the time she received her meal, I was done with mine. 25 minutes later. Food was cold and overpriced.
