Bayside Restaurant Description:
Bayside continues to be one of Newport Beach's best values with its scenic harbor view and reasonably priced menu of classic and contemporary favorites. The interior focuses on a modern palette of earthy reds and dark browns, but the breezy white canvas over the bar harkens you back to the restaurant's harborside locale. Bayside is lucky to retain chef Paul Gstrein, who brings his well-heeled Austrian hotelier lineage to the eatery. Gstrein incorporates seasonal ingredients into all of his creations, such as a deconstructed beet salad among the starters. For entrées, there's always a comforting and creamy risotto, along with other dishes like the wild mushroom-crusted halibut, tender filet mignon and a slow-roasted pork rib-eye. On Sundays, a casual crowd shows up for the three-course prix-fixe menu, which includes such items as eggs Benedict and venison medallions swimming in a pungent red wine reduction. The Ghoukassian family, who also run Irvine's Bistango, takes wine seriously, as can be seen in the cellar.
