"During the opening phase in 2018 of Ron Salisbury's Louie's by the Bay in Newport Beach, I note that Selvaggio came on as a consultant, a partnership that an OC Register story characterized as defined by a long friendship between Salisbury and Selvaggio." - Matthew Kang
"A new upscale waterfront Italian restaurant from a noted chef offering coastal Italian dishes and scenic harbor views." - Eater Staff
"Reviewers from the OC Register praised the new Newport Beach restaurant for delivering loads of “casual Italian glamor,” crediting longtime operator Piero Selvaggio for the approachable yet polished Italian-leaning experience." - Farley Elliott
"A multi-million-dollar waterfront project from Piero Selvaggio (Valentino) and Ron Salisbury (El Cholo), Louie’s by the Bay in Newport Beach is a new by-the-water restaurant worth noting." - Farley Elliott
"I learned that Selvaggio will soon open Louie’s By the Bay in Newport with Ron Salisbury of El Cholo; he described it as an Italian steakhouse that will also serve “fun pastas” and a strong wine program, with 30 to 40 percent of the list drawn from Valentino’s remaining extraordinary collection (including, he noted, rare bottles such as an 1891 Biondi-Santi Brunello that had once been offered for $25,000)." - Alejandro Benes
