David Wilhelm Opens “His Most Exciting Restaurant Yet”
Tavern House, a new waterfront eatery in the former 3-Thirty-3 Waterfront location in Newport Beach is now open and serving a combination of all-time favorites and new offerings from longtime restaurateur, David Wilhelm.
The menu offers a combination of Wilhelm’s ‘greatest hits’ such as the Honey Buttermilk Fried Chicken, Prime Mishima Ranch Burger, Maple and Bacon Charred Brussels Sprouts, Snapper Veracruzana, Salmon Carpaccio, and others, alongside a variety of classic New American dishes with a creative spin by Tavern House’s Executive Chef, Mike Payne.
All menu items are prepared with the highest quality ingredients featuring sustainable and properly harvested seafood, humanely-raised poultry and livestock, and produce from small, local farmers.
The menu adheres to the principles of the Monterey Bay Aquarium's ‘Seafood Watch’ program, which is a commitment to sell only environmentally responsible seafood and help transform the marketplace in favor of more responsible fisheries and aquaculture operations.
Within the main dining room, the horseshoe-shaped bar takes center stage at overlooking the harbor and featuring a solid line-up of handcrafted classic cocktails utilizing premium alcohols, freshly squeezed juices, and local herbs and veggies.
Also, enjoy a curated wine menu highlighting boutique wineries and easy-to-drink varietals which complement the food. Additionally, Tavern House boasts many micro-brews and imports both on tap and by the bottle.
Tavern House is open for dinner nightly from 5 p.m. On Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. - 3 p.m., guests can enjoy brunch featuring Wilhelm’s over-the-top Bloody Marys and ever-popular Fried Chicken and Waffles. The centrally located bar features a weekday happy hour serving up icy margaritas, craft beer, and wine, alongside savory and spicy bites from 3 - 6 p.m. Additionally, Tavern House plans to introduce a lunch menu and four slips of dockside dining at a later date.
