Dining room at The Cannery, Newport Beach, CAA living testament to the restaurant’s bygone era as a real fish cannery, this landmark sprawls gracefully over Newport Harbor. The Cannery has gone through several evolutions in the past decades to become the low-key enclave it is today. For lunch, most like to leisurely nosh out of doors on the sunny patio, nibbling on satisfying fresh salads and light entrées. When the lights go down, however, the place lights up as a golden historic structure outside and a water palace inside, with inventive lighting fixtures in the shapes of jellyfish, starfish and other fantastic sea creatures. Executive chef Felix Salcedo’s menu includes everything from traditional seafood classics to contemporary Euro-American cuisine boosted with slight nods to other parts of the globe. Some go upstairs to The Cannery’s traditional sushi bar or they lounge in a homey fire pit area or hang around the large wooden bar. The Cannery also has the longest dock of only a handful of harbor restaurants. Consequently, electric putt-putts to million-dollar yachts can dock and dine or pick up some good food for a harbor-style floating feast.

TOO EXPENSIVE
by LEXUSRY on 11/14/2008
 
THIS PLACE IS TOO EXPENSIVE TO EAT HERE. THE FOOD PORTION IS SMALL AND SERVICE IS VERY SLOW. ANYONE WHO WANT TO THROW MONEY AWAY, THIS IS THE PLACE TO BE AT.
