“ This is exactly the kind of place you'd want to fully experience OC off the boardwalk. I definitely had a few Orange Crushes. The burger was cooked to perfection. My picky child even ate his entire plate. Also ordered the blackened scallops. Overall go there for the local vibes and live music . ”
“ Service was great, so were the drinks. I had the orange crush and strawberry mule, both were pretty good. Crab cakes were also really good though a little pricey. ”
“ Harborside did not disappoint when it came to their orange crush. It was amazing. Service was pretty quick and the staff were friendly. The food was very good and fresh. The wings are good. The mahi mahi is phenomenal. The mussels as well were great. The happy hour menu is decent. 10/10 experience. The parking can be a bit tight at times depending on when you go there. ”
“ The food was amazing! the service was great and especially our server Korin was amazing always checking on us and making sure the food was good and everything. We will definitely be coming back! ”
“ This is a must-try as it is the place that invented orange crush cocktails, if you happen to love those, as I do! It was absolutely packed when we went! Everyone enjoyed their food. I just had potato skins but they were huge! I will say they had a DJ when we were there which normally I might like, but seemed a little overwhelming with the rain and windows being covered. I will be back, hopefully when it’s not raining! ”
