QW is always consistently wonderful from their toasted bread, wonderful lazy susan salad with creamy italian dressing to any item on the menu. My go to is their swordfish but I don't put the sauce on. Outstanding as usual.

Overall, dining at the QW was an excellent experience. I would recommend it to others and plan to return when we’re in the OC again.

Service was also great. If you want a place with a lot of energy this was what we experienced. Bar was really busy and so was the restaurant. There was a band that played and they were great. One negative was a fight broke out in the bar area. They had bouncers who removed a person that I’m assuming was involved. I was surprised at that but I guess if there’s alcohol and a festive bar area it can happen. It was still very nice and we will go back.

Noisy but it was a Friday night. Food takes awhile to come out, but again, it was a Friday night. Overall it was a great dinner, and we even got to sit in the same booth as the RHOC episode!

Generous portions! Love the BLT salad=the best ever. My husband had the lobster tacos which were great. Only negatives- we were served our food in the middle of the salad...which felt rushed. and the noise level was intense. Nevertheless, we will return!

Ordered two baseball steaks medium rare that came out medium medium well and they ran out of mashed potatoes that the dish came with so we had french fries. At least the drinks were good.

No conversation possible in our booth. Really a bummer since everything else was so pleasant. Perhaps one of the booths near the kitchen would be more tolerable; except who wants to sit by the kitchen? Recommend a Yes based on food and service. But, if you want to enjoy conversation over dinner, might want to try somewhere else.

The host and our server were exemplary , the server particularly so! Very loud , but that is to be expected. Our meal was promptly served and delicious as always.

I was surprised to be seated in a back patio area, which looks like a converted garage. I started with the quiet woman’s salad, which was very good. My wife ordered the chicken piccata, and I ordered the Spicy rigatoni à la vodka. My wife was very disappointed in the chicken piccata it was a large breast that was dry and not seasoned well. My spicy rigatoni, à la vodka was delivered lukewarm, obviously sat on the warming table for 10 or 15 minutes because all of the sauce had coagulated, and was so spicy that neither my wife or I could eat it. We decided to get to go containers and take this home. I’m disappointed in the quiet woman because I have fond memories of going there over 30 years ago and the food was great.

The only thing was that they were filming in the main building, and there wasn’t notice until we showed up to our reservation. If we were in a section that had been filmed we would have had to cancel. It was great otherwise! Lovely staff, beautiful patio and amazing food.

Pretty, with the same great food and service, but NOTHING like going to the inside Quiet Woman. So be prepared for that. It's like being in a little cafe.
