The food was quite delicious and expertly made. The wait staff was very kind and friendly and was helpful in ordering the food. Neither my date or I went for the steak (which is the main menu items) but our seafood came out delicious and flavorful. The cocktails are excellent and have a nice balance of flavors. The cozy amotsphere of the booths is great for a date night and affords one comfort in a restaurant setting.

Service was awful. Maybe because it was a Friday night during Newport Beach restaurant week but Sean was TERRIBLE. 40 minutes into our reservation and no drinks nor had we ordered. Two people ordered a drink and he only brought one. Once the food came, he never came to check in on us. The only thing that came efficiently was the bill. Food tasted great. That is the only saving grace. Blacked salmon was superb! Corn chowder was too sweet. Chocolate mousse was fantastic. Their Parmesan bread rolls were excellent.

A great place to meet your friends and at very convenient locations. The appetizers (asparagus and calamari) were very tasteful. The bone-in fillet was cooked perfectly. The new york strip steak is the go to meal. Dessert is next and I'm scanning the menu, but the after dinner drink selection looks great too. Service is great.

Terrible. We went with family last week. We parked in back parking lot space marked for "Bungalow", and I went up stairs with two teen children. Wife and elementary aged son followed minute later, putting on his shoes. I was getting table for 5 with receptionist. My wife was followed up the back stairs by Valet Attendant, who was demanding our keys from her. She came in and said I had to give my keys to Valet. We had already parked (he was not obvious in lot when we pulled in). He still demanded my keys. I said we had already parked. He turned to receptionist/hostess and said "tell him he has to give me his keys". She said "you have to give him your keys, we are valet only". I said "Wow, OK, we will just leave" which we did. Attendant followed us downstairs speaking in Spanish, saying "Tacano" in Spanish to his cohort valet buddy. Tacano means "Cheapskate" in Spanish. I asked him what he said and he puffed out his chest and said "Your decision you are leaving... mister". Two days later I am still not happy. Tried to find an email for owners at Bungalow, of course none available on-line, so decided to make my first POST. We did go to Fleming's where we spent $280, plus $50 tip for excellent servers. Ridiculous to charge people who want park their own cars... in CDM. At Fleming's I can "chose" to park my own car if I want convenience, but in the little Bungalow lot, it is a joke. We will NEVER go back to Bungalow.

I went there for a party and the food was OUTSTANDING, the environment lovely and inviting, and the presence of the owners as they mingled with their guests gave it a distinctly homey, welcoming vibe. Terrific.
