Reviews for Malarky's Irish Pub in Newport Beach, CA
The bar was overcrowded, so a friend and I asked a bouncer if it was alright if we went outside for a minute to get some fresh... air. A minute later, after attempting to come back inside, the bouncer refused to let my friend back in without a ?cut the linefee? of $20. I cited that I had just talked to him moments ago, and he called me a liar and said that my friend was never insideoriginally. We promptly got our entire party (6) to leave as a response to this hostile behavior. If you want to be scammed outof your money by unfriendly bouncers, this might be the place for you. Read more

We saw the billboard advertising their Prime Rib Tuesday special so we popped in for dinner, excellent choice! The prime rib was... delicious, cooked perfectly and a good portion size, (took home a third!). Baked potato was good, onion rings were thick andcrunchy, the chili was excellent and nicely presented in cast iron. My father had the fish and chips and they were delicious andalso a hearty portion size. Side salad w/ blue cheese dressing were good too. There is a full bar, great friendly fast service,did congress out of the kitchen HOT much like when dining in Ireland! The prices seem very reasonable, we'd definitely return!???? Social distancing, and Covid cleaning is up to snuff and this place seems populate with regulars and they've been here fordecades. Nice outdoor seating available. Lots of televisions rubbed to sports. This is a step above most pubs in the states andon par with the best in Ireland! ????????Thank you to Baily for the friendly, fun high caliber service!! ???? Tip your serversgenerously if you can afford to, these really are tough times for the industry! ?????????????????????????? Read more
Grabbed dinner here recently and was surprisingly impressed! I ordered their black and blue burger with steamed veggies and it... was delicious. The vegetables were cooked perfectly, and burger moist and very flavorful --not quite what I was expecting. Thepub itself felt a bit grimy, though what good Irish put isn't? The staff was extremely polite, friendly, and extremelyefficient. The prices were very reasonable, in fact, I'd say cheap especially for the area. It's easy to spot from thesurrounding streets, and just a quick walk down to the beach. There was limited parking to the side. Overall a greatexperience and would certainly go back! Read more
