Description:

Balboa Bay Club First Cabin Restaurant

True to its name, The First Cabin Restaurant is reminiscent of an elegant dining room on a cruise liner. Large picture windows and an outdoor terrace frame the views of the sun-filled coastline, sailboats, and romantic sunsets. Led by Austrian-born Chef Josef Lageder and his culinary staff, the restaurant uses only the seasons freshest ingredients for the menu, which highlights steak and seafood. Additionally, a special wellness menu is available and many items can be prepared to cater to those with special dietary needs, making the dining experience feel as though you are being served by a private chef.

An impressive wine selection with more than 600 wines complements any occasion and has helped the venue earn critical acclaim and prestigious awards. The First Cabin Restaurant is recognized by the Four Diamond Award, Wine Spectator "Best Of" Award of Excellence, and Award of Excellence by Distinguished Restaurants of North America (DiRoNA). Open Table guests recently rated First Cabin "First in Service".

On Friday and Saturday evenings, live piano music softly plays favorite requests from 6:30pm to 9:30pm. The adjacent First Cabin Wine Bar is the perfect place to meet dinner guests and explore new wines prior to dinner. For intimate parties or wine tastings, there is a private dining room with seating for up to 14 guests.
