SHOR American Seafood Grill

The food here was very good. It is a good-sized room to be in and also the chairs are comfortable. Definitely try all the kinds of fish I had the swordfish was awesome also the lamb shank. The service was good could have been a little better. One of the big things I look at is actually getting butter that spreads on the bread which they had.

I really liked the food here. I had a Carrot Ginger soup, which was creamy. I took a star away because it did not come with bread and cost $4 extra. The bread was good though, served with an artichoke butter. I also enjoyed the Beyond Burger with fries. The side salads are very fresh and delicious too. Also, try the Atalaya red wine from Spain is delicious.

Shor is located within Hyatt Regency Newport Beach. They are now open to dine in for three meals a day. The service is awesome from the front greeter, server, bus boy, all the way to the chef. They will accommodate your food request no matter how much you deviate from the menu. Thanks to Kiana Maleki (director of food & beverages) and her staff such as Felix, Juan, Angel, Peter, Paige, and Arturo among many others. Please refer the attached photos and a possibility video to see how some of the menu items looks like and the facility from inside.

We had a wonderful dinner. Rob was amazing. He was very attentive and friendly. He was amazing with our 5 year old daughter. It was our first time in OC and he gave us some recommendations on places in the area to visit.

Hands down, the best service I’ve had! Additionally, Ahi Sandwich is phenomenal and the lemon pepper wings were the best I’ve ever had and I’m from Atlanta. Whatever you guys are doing, don’t change it because I’m coming back for more next time I’m in town! I attached some photos from our dinners here. The bone marrow and grilled octopus were also great!

Excellent spot to sit, relax, and quiet enough where you could have a normal conversation with someone. The staff was amazing. I got the chance to meet staff member named Jay, who was amazingly attentive and whom had great recommendations. The food was absolutely incredible, so much so, that I just had to try extra things to see if it all was or if it was just the meal I ordered. I could not list one complaint. This is a must destination, even if only for one meal.

Wonderful short rib bolognese!!! The pasta was cooked perfectly, the meat was so tender and the sauce was sooo good. We shared one dish and left very full. Looked nicer but I took a bite before taking the photo. The marinated olives were really good too.

So dissaponted that we didn't have a better experience - we were looking forward to our free breakfast as new Hyatt Globalist members. We ere greeted kindly and gracefully by a young man. Our initial serve exhibited all the qualities of a happy person. Our second server was nice too. But you could tell he was over worked - not his fault. Food took forever to arrive and you could tell other families around us exhibited the same frustration. Kids and parents were getting really hangry. Food finally came and it was cold...sigh. My steak and eggs was undercooked and chewy. Bread was hard cold. Huevos Rancheros were okay. Oh, and we never got a second serving coffee. Our server never returned. A newlywed couple returned their cold eggs. I'm sure it's a good restaurant - we just probably caught it on a really bad day - who knows. Hadn't not been free, I probably would have been very upset and this review less forgiving. I just felt bad for all those families with starving children, mine included.

Came here for breakfast as we were staying at the hotel and wanted one hearty breakfast under our belt. Sunday morning 9 am yet super quiet . Juan looked after us like royalty. From the word go I knew it would be a good spot when the coffee was just perkfection !! A really lovely selection for all the different taste buds in your family.

This was our 2nd time eating at Shor. We were staying at the hotel for a concert. Breakfast was delightful. Was particularly happy to be able to order one pancake instead of a stack to top our meals. My made to order sausage and veggie omelette with (sub) egg whites was exactly what I wanted. Delish! My husband enjoyed his bacon and eggs. It was the perfect day to sit outside. Unfortunately there is not a view when you sit outside. The Restaurant faces the front of the hotel. There is a bay view at the back of the hotel.

Dinner was underwhelming but breakfast was very good. Husband ordered Blanton's but server brought Angel's Envy and said they were out of Blanton's. Weird they didn't give him more options & let him choose. The seafood appetizer was to have shrimp, crab, mussels and oysters-there was no crab. Shrimp smelled very fishy. Tomato bisque was good, lamb was mediocre. Dessert was just okay. Breakfast was a day & night difference! 6 of us and everyone really enjoyed their choices but the kids didn't care for the super thick French Toast. Bacon was delicious as was the Acai bowl. Star was a warm cinnamon roll which we all shared. Servers are all very kind and welcoming.

I stayed at this hotel on a recent trip and was incredibly impressed by SHOR's breakfast. I loved their açaí bowl. It's probably one of the best açaí bowls I've ever had and I felt it was nutritious, fresh, and filling. I will say that service was a little slow when the restaurant was busy but that's to be expected. They have a nice patio for outdoor dining. In addition to regular coffee, they have an espresso machine and their coffee drinks were very reasonably priced.

The BEST experience! My birthday present is coming to the Hyatt for fun, swimming, hot tub, relax, and food. This time I decided to lunch at Shor. Nice , breezy seating. I had chocolate cake first. Juan, the server, very attentive and efficient. He brought the cake w a candle and busboy and snack market attendant Adine. They all sang HB! That was a nice touch. THEN they bought me a present! Cookies from their snack shop. This is a memory I won't forget. Really made my day. Then there was the DELISH steak bites! Hit, tender, sweet chili aoli sauce. Plenty! Prices are reasonable ($23). Food delicious. Service. Wow.

We visited Newport Beach for July 4th long weekend and stayed at the Hyatt Regency in Newport Beach. We got a voucher for food and drinks and decided to use it at the Shor restaurant for breakfast. The ambiance was so perfect. Everything was neat and clean. The seating was spread out and roomy. My husband got the continental breakfast and I got the veggie wrap. I was a little skeptical about the veggie wrap because I didn't see a lot of people ordering it, but I wanted to give it a shot. My veggie wrap was bright green and split in half. It came with a side of egg whites and fruits. OMG, the eggs were cooked perfectly and the fruits were super fresh. The wrap itself was so delicious! It was packed with veggies and goat cheese and came with a side of red salsa too. The presentation was spot on and the quantity was just right. My husband's breakfast was the traditional eggs, sausage, toast and a side of roasted potatoes. He liked it. But it was not as amazing as my food. I was impressed by their veggie options overall, but would highly recommend trying to veggie wrap. It is so different from the rest of the dishes and very tasty!! Lastly, the server was so kind and ensured that everything came out perfectly.

We had a fabulous experience, so I don't understand the bad Yelp reviews. We came for one of the Jazz concerts. We made dinner reservations prior, and had a lovely table with an attentive server. The menu was limited, but we made the best of it. One got a hearty salad she enjoyed, and we thought was delicious. One got the fries, which we all enjoyed. One got the Brussel sprouts, which needed salt, but then was good. For dinner, one got the class, which were so good, she ordered one to go. The other two got the grilled shrimp. Yum, I say! We enjoyed each other's company so much, we ordered dessert. One raved about her apple tart, as the other 2 had decadent creme Brule. A yummy night!

Love my breakfast at Shor. I really like the steak and eggs but today I ordered the French toast.

Visited SHOR during a break from the Jazz Festival. It was a welcome respite from the concert. Had the burger, flatbread and Thai squash soup. Yummy! Ken, our server was efficient and courteous as well as his supporting staff. A pleasant experience!

If you like the experience of an elegant, outdoor patio dining, this place is for you. Food is delicious and service is impeccable. This is what makes Orange County stands out!!

Geez the host stand needs some help. They are not readily available and lack any customer service. Food is decent for a hotel and service is ok. I definitely would not eat here unless you had no other choice.

Inside the Hyatt, we had a great breakfast and great service. The food was a nice portion, we could have share a meal, restaurant has nice windows and the ambiance was nice. Would return

Best food service! Jay and all the servers were amazing, friendly, and fast with food, the surrounding were nice and quiet, I enjoyed the dinner as well, the steak was so good and salmon, curry soup, bread baskets and dessert everything! We will be coming back here when we're back at Newport forgot to take pictures because we ate it so fast it's in tummy now.

We love the hotel and the Summer Concert series. I will keep this review on Shor only. I enjoy leaving 5 star reviews when they are deserved. +1, the location is great +1 the restaurant and bathrooms are clean +1 the French Fries in the bar were perfect -1, With a 6:15 reservation we were told that they were stopping seating and would try to find us something. We were first seated at a couch looking into the servers door. The next table was a six person round, not great to have dinner with my wife. -1, 30 minutes for our drink to arrive No points, the Brussel Sprout appetizer was okay, needed to request the balsamic glaze that was left off. It came in about 5 minutes. -1, my wife ordered the chicken Seasar salad. The chicken was still raw inside. I think they make their own ceasar dressing, some of the lettuce tasted like lemon juice, some like olive oil, another part like Parmesan cheese. It was like they forgot to whisk the dressing. It was mostly inedible. -1, I ordered the blackened Ahi salad. The Ahi had the thickest layer of blackening seasoning I have ever seen. It was way too overpowering. When paired with the sweet Asian salad the combination was just wrong. -1, when our waitress asked how everything was at the end, I told her not good. She laughed uncomfortably and walked away. Unfortunately we had a concert starting shortly. Had we been dining we would have sent both salads back and left. Based on the fries, the bar would be a safer choice.

Chef Ken Torres made our weekend complete with his great menu and food. Our garlic clams were prepared with the best garlic broth! The bread was wonderful. My only complaint was I should have ordered a DOUBLE order. The salmon cooked perfectly. Our salads created light and interestingly tasteful. Breakfast- tender light pancakes. Lunch- great burger , chicken sandwich to die for and a Philly cheesesteak cooked to perfection. We ate out to one of popular sites and wished we had stayed at the Hyatt to try another meal. We are from Las Vegas and used to fine dining. Thank you for making our visit to Newport perfect! An extra shout out to excellent servers at each meal! Real professional. Thanks.

No good. Completely overpriced and felt swindled. I ordered wine and the server asked if I wanted the 7oz glass to which I said yes because there were two prices listed - one for a glass and one for a bottle. Turns out the 7oz glass was $4 more than the listed price. I got the SHOR salad which was $17 for a unsatisfying salad. The cost to add salmon as a protein would have added $16 to the cost. The only saving grace was the dressing which was quite nice. The toppings were sparse and the greens were mediocre. The bread and butter was $10!! I was with a group who had ordered it before I arrived. Nickel and dime everything. The real kicker was a 5% "SHOR service charge" included so the restaurant can pay their employees minimum wage. A company as big as Hyatt should just be doing automatically that because it's the law and the right thing to do and not pushing those costs onto your customers. Also to only include an 18% tip for your servers working large tables is wrong. Tips on a large party should be 20%. Valet parking was free for 3 hours which was nice and those employees were hustling and working hard.

My New York steak came out a perfect medium rare Seasoning was delicious, the broccolini was served hot on some sweet potato mash The Demi glaze was awesome My wife ordered the shor salad, all the flavors were delish candied pecans, bleu cheese crumbles and a sweet vinaigrette. Great service and great food

Jay and Ken was so nice and great waiters. The service was amazing. We had a table of 16 and they accommodated us outside in the patio. The weather was perfect. The food was great. All the food and presentation of the food was great. We ate everything, we all got different things to try. We had the avocado toast, the açaí bowl, French toast, huevo ranchos, bagel lox, mimosas. Everything was good. The waiters were great friendly and fast. I am definitely going to recommend this resort and restaurant to others. We will return. All the staff were great and so friendly and accommodating. Thanks for the great food and service!

It's my first time staying at Hyatt Newport Beach, for a mini getaway because many of my coworkers have recommended this particular Hyatt. The restaurant is located in the second half of the main lobby area. Yelp currently says they're open for dinner at 5:30pm as of 01/16, but there's a sign out in front that says they actually open at 5:00pm. My mom and I arrived promptly at 5:00pm and was greeted and seated right away. You have your indoor seating and outdoor as well if you'd like. Once we were seated, we were handed the drink and food menus. Shortly after, our waters came out ordered out appetizers. To start off, we went with their Brussel Sprouts and their Truffle and Parmesan Fries. For our entrees, we ordered their Seafood Boil and Grilled Octopus. For a hotel restaurant, it was pretty top notch. The Seafood Boil came out piping hot and it had a wide variety of different seafood. The clams, shrimp, sausage, potatoes, and corn were all great. Huge plus because it wasn't overly salty like most seafood places. My mom's Grilled Octopus dish was great as well. It was cooked and charred to perfection. Our appetizers were great and once again, not overly salty for either one. I forgot the name of our server, but we were there sitting by the window on 01/16 at approximately 5:00pm, like I mentioned earlier. If you're staying at this Hyatt and want to go out for some fresh seafood, but want to avoid the ridiculous wait times outside the hotel, stop by this one. It's definitely worth your while. If i'm ever back at this Hyatt property, I will be back.

Delicious food. Had the ahi burger - best I've ever had. It was cooked perfectly, topped with tasty mild kimchee. It was amazing. Hubby had a burger and thoroughly enjoyed it. Friend had the grilled Scottish salmon over toasted orzo with asparagus and almost licked his plate. Prices are on the high side - worth every penny. Attentive, friendly staff too.

I don't know why this place doesn't have good reviews. Our breakfast experience was awesome! We ordered their steak and eggs and egg Benedict. Both were extremely good! The service was fast and the place was nice a tidy.

we so enjoy Shor Restaurant in the Hyatt Newport Beach. the food servers, Jay, Rob, and Isma just to name a few provide exceptional service. The food is fresh, beautifully prepared and the menu has a nice range of options.

OMG!!!!!! Jay was amazing!!!! He was so kind. We are staying here at the hotel and were seated right away! The host was very sweet too although I didn't catch his name! We sat outside which is absolutely gorgeous. Such a romantic setting. It was a little chilly and immediately Jay and the host surrounded us with heaters! Jay made us feel so welcomed. He went above and beyond. The food was delicious. The price was very good for the quality of the food and the environment... I cannot put into words how perfect my family and my night was because of Jay and the rest of the Shor staff! You guys are amazing! If I could give 100 stars I would!!!!! THANK YOU JAY!!!!!!

First meal of the day did not disappoint. Perfectly charbroiled wagyu steak and eggs exactly as ordered with lovely fresh fruit by the attentive Ken. Looking forward to crab cakes Benedict tomorrow; tough choice today! Nice menu options and charming, quiet patio setting. Happy to be here!

The breakfast here is delicious. Everything was made exceptionally well and tasted great. We had a lot of things off of the menu and they all were so good. The French toast, avocado toast and açaí bowl were some of our favorites. It's a great relaxing spot to enjoy breakfast outside on the patio!

We were there last night for the Chris Isaac Concert! The Food was Great, and our Server Jose was the Best of the Best! He was remarkable! This Restaurant needs to upgrade its Wine List! Poor Selection of Reds! And the Portion Size of 5 ounces is totally Absurd and Insulting! As a Red Wine Drinker this would definitely give me pause from coming back to this restaurant! And with a 5% Sur Charge on top of the bill, they should be Giving 7 ounce Pours and no charge for Bread!

My family and I reserved the Easter brunch this afternoon. Our server Felix was amazing. However, we will not be dining here ever again. The quality of food was below average. The turkey bacon tasted worst than microwaved and the chicken sausage had a flavor reminiscent of cardboard. I spoke with the manager to vocalize my concerns, but he did not accommodate us. This truly saddens me as they use to have a wonderful brunch buffet which is why we came back. Complete disappointment.

Great place, at a great hotel. I enjoyed sitting outside and getting the bread basket, truffle and parmesan fries, and tiger shrimp risotto. All was really good as i ate it all. Definitely not going to be cheap, but good place with good vibes

We came here for Mother's Day brunch for my Mom. Just going to have to say we had a blast!!! The live music was awesome. The view was great. Best of all our server Rob was awesome. My mom had an awesome time. 10/10 experience and I would recommend to anyone.

I wasn't too hungry. Partly cause I'm here under those circumstances that no one wants to reckon with... Funeral/Celebration of life. Staying at this hotel will always mean that for me now. Thankfully they are all amazing w/o knowing what's going on. Room fantastic & next to the relaxin super hot hot tub how I like it! You almost have to inch your way in. I'd give 5 stars for service right now! Awesome!

Convenient but not memorable. We had the $65 pre-fixe pre-concert dinner (the menu of which was not available until the day before the concert). Ordering from the regular menu was not an option. We were seated at 5:30pm when the dining room was nearly empty and the ratio of wait staff to diners looked to be about 1:1, so the service was very quick and attentive (and pleasant). There were four entree options (NY strip steak, halibut, half chicken and vegan). We both chose the steak, which was flavorful but tough. The menu indicated it would be accompanied with broccolini but, in fact, came with roasted asparagus. On the way out, we noticed that many of the concert goers were eating in the bar. However, based on the meager selections on the bar menu, it was apparent that the choice has been made based on cost, not cuisine. We'll look for another dining option next time.

Did not provide proper steak knife, customer service was subpar waiter only came and brought 2 drinks throughout whole dining experience.

Came here last night for my 10-year-old nephews birthday dinner. We had a party of about 30 people and they sat us in the far right corner outside with heaters and a beautiful landscape all around us. The weather was perfect outside and so was the whole night actually. First off the service, our waiter was an English man I do not recall his name. He was very nice, very accommodating, and took care of my family and I so perfectly well. He also had three other waiters that were equally as nice and helpful throughout our dinner last night. They kept our ice tea glasses full and they did not forget anything that we asked for, and all of our food was delicious! I had the turkey Panini, my daughters both had the spaghetti and meatballs and my husband had the meat lovers pizza. Other family members of mine had the salmon, the burger, the roasted chicken, the New York steak, the chicken tortilla soup, the vegetable pizza, the Greek appetizer plate, and it was all DELICIOUS The iced tea was freshly brewed and the water was crisp and clean tasting no weird tap water taste. Now onto the drinks ..we had the strawberry fields drink, the chili margarita, the espresso martini and the lemon drop martini and as the food these drinks were a 10/10. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone! everything was 5 stars all across the board. We will definitely be coming back here for a nice dinner date or another birthday party !

Yummm!! The SHOR Fish tacos were delicious! We stayed at the Hyatt Regency and were exhausted after a long day of traveling. So we figured we might as well try the restaurant. It was suprisingly delicious (In the past I have not had great success with hotel restaurants). The fish tacos were definately a highlight! The sourdough bread was very good and the service was quite quick!

Stopped here to eat before the Boney James concert and they were packed. We ordered drinks & couldn't decide on an appetizer. Even though they were swamped Sidney kept checking on us. The drinks were great (Long Island iced teas), the food was good steak bites), and Sidney's service was great.

I made reservations at this restaurant due to the fact we were going to a concert there that night. We were seated to a table promptly and given water and our menus. I was surprised at the menu because it look like a prefix. There was a choice of two salads, I believe five entrées and two desserts. There were no prices on it and I was surprised because when looking at the website there was a more extensive menu. We asked our waiter Jay and he said due to the concert the chef wanted to limit the menu. We assumed we had to pick something from the three categories which we found out later we really didn't have to. So my husband had the chicken and I had the steak and we each picked a different salad and dessert. We got a glass of Malbec and Pinot Gris which was fine. While eating our salads they brought out the entrées luckily they took them back because we weren't even halfway done with our salads. Finally got the bill and was quite surprised as it was pretty expensive. The food wasn't exceptional and I love the ranch and it's much much better. I have to blame some of this on myself because I should've asked more questions about the cost. It was very crowded and I'm glad we had early reservations that was the good part.

We went to SHOR before one of the Summer Concert Series concerts in the Back Bay Amphitheater just below the hotel (that venue is fabulous and highly recommended). It was an easy walk from SHOR to the amphitheater, so we decided to try it out. The only good part about it was the service, the beverages, and the ambiance. The food was awful. The dressing on the caesar salad tasted like it was out of a bottle. The chicken was overcooked and hard. The tagliatelle al mare consisted of overcooked pasta which stuck together and contained about 4 baby (1/2" sized) shrimp, 2 - 3 small pieces of calamari, 5 clam shells--of which only one actually contained the clam meat, and an octopus tentacle placed on top. The pasta was tasteless and inedible. We returned to SHOR for breakfast because we were staying in the hotel and it was easy, and we decided that it would be hard to screw up something as simple as eggs. But we were wrong! The omelette was overcooked and overfilled with way too much cheese, and the Huevos Rancheros was flavorless. The potatoes that came with the omelette were served hard and cool, as if they had been prepared hours earlier and just left to sit under a heat lamp. I will definitely return to the Summer Concert Series, but I would not return to SHOR unless they did a major upgrade on the quality of their food.

Great food , great service, English Rob was Amazing.Pan Seared Scallops were delicious.

I was extremely saddened with the lack of restaurant choices at the hotel, so we decided to come down to the seafood Grill. Once we arrived at the grill we were told that it is the same exact menu that is offered through room service, which was a little bit of a bummer as we wanted more options. I ordered the California burger and it was pretty good however we also ordered a cheese pizza that came out so burnt that the cheese was black on top unfortunately. Our server was nice and this place is a great spot for groups or date night, but we just didn't have the best experience

For such an expensive hotel, they have a pretty decent pricing for their food, which I am not complaining about! I ordered their Portobello Mushroom Sandwich/Burger for lunch that day. It was actually very tasty! I don't recall what type of sauce it was, but the sauce they had on the burger was just so yummy! On the second day I was at the hotel, I ordered an appetizer during happy hour. I got their buffalo wings and that was definitely yummy as well. Definitely would recommend this restaurant. If you can, try to eat out on the balcony or outside. It's such a beautiful sight.

Went for Father's Day. Food was basic at best. Service was good but for the prices, do not waste your time and money.

I wish I could give this place 0 stars because I could cook better than this. Let's start off with the service. As I left the restroom, a waiter bolted right in front of me yelling back "too busy" in a rude He didn't even apologize or anything. I had the cauliflower bisque which tasted like something out of a can. The taste was bland and rather average. For the main entree, I ordered a 10 hour cooked short rib which came out burnt. The kale surrounding it was also burnt and bitter. The ribs were so dry, I had to finish my entire glass of water. I will never come back here again.

We enjoyed dining here for breakfast twice. $26 per adult for the breakfast buffet and $13 for kids. At the buffet they had assorted breads & pastries, oatmeal with all the fixing, fresh fruit, pancakes/French toast, bacon, sausage, potatoes, scrambled eggs, and quiche. We enjoyed the croissants and pastries, quiche, condiments for the oatmeal, and the bacon was done right. For lunch we tried the shishito peppers, salmon with Caesar salad, chicken club, and fish tacos. The shishito peppers were good and I liked the fries. Lunch was expensive and just okay. Nice ambience and service was excellent from Julio, Jessica, and Felix. You guys are great!

Rob was a 10/10! So friendly, so personable and made my almost 4-year-old so happy with the chocolate cake and s'mores kit. The hamburger was delicious and my guys loved the pizza. So impressed!

Good breakfast spot! The food and coffee is above average, the service is below average. The fingerling potatoes and breakfast burrito were great!

We had a really nice Mother's Day dinner here. Jorge was our server and he was so wonderful. Very personal, very kind.

We had dinner here on a Saturday night while staying at the Newport Hyatt with friends for the weekend. We were a party of 18ish, kids and adults. We made reservations but don't think it would've been a problem since we were the only ones in the restaurant. That gave me pause when I entered but it turned out to be a complete blessing. Tristan, our server, was amazing. She was unobtrusively attentive, friendly, personable, met all of our needs, big and small, and appeared to do it effortlessly. Since the restaurant was empty other than our party, it allowed the kids to have some freedom within reason. There were no complaints from any of the staff. In fact, they all appeared to enjoy seeing so many children enjoy themselves. I am not a fish eating person. Typically, the smell of cooking fish makes me nauseous. But I have made a decision to eat more fish because it's so healthy for you. I tried the Halibut and I enjoyed it. All of the food was good. It was on the pricey side but for our experience that night, it was completely worth it. To the management, I commend Tristan. She really made the dining experience memorable. One family did get food poisoning but I truly cannot believe it was because of this restaurant because no one else at the table got it, and many of us had the same dishes. I would definitely recommend this restaurant while visiting the hotel, and getting credited Hyatt Passport points for dollars spent there was an added bonus.

We had a lovely dinner here on a Friday night. Staying at the hotel and decided to keep it local. The food was awesome and so was the staff. We specially our waiter English Rob. We had burgers, yummy Brussel sprouts, and delicious cocktails.

Had the pleasure of being served by Jose and Hector. Excellent customer service and great food. Enjoyed the sunset and views. Corking fee price was reasonable. Highly recommended. Also spoke to Ivan who was a pleasure and had great service. If you are in Newport Beach, stop by SHOR. You will not regret it! 9/7/18 Came back again due to great service. Ivan, Jose, and Hector are just amazing! Quality customer service. Great food and they pay attention to detail. I observed them work as a team to get the job done!
