Charming old world restaurant with lots of warmth and a polished, attentive wait-staff. Food was disappointing. I had a sole dish that was over-cooked with a tough, doughy crust (probably dredged & floured well in advance of cooking allowing glutens to form). The soup could have been from a red and white can and the side dishes were bland. This restaurant is not inexpensive. With so many other things going for it, it's unfortunate that the cuisine doesn't justify the cost.

I have practically grown up with this fabulous place....my parents were some of Bill's first customers and we have enjoyed it immensely since! Impecabble service, outstanding food and wonderful ambiance all contribute to many enjoyable evenings! NOT a part of any chain, this is Bill's place, exclusively!

Great quality. Not part of a chain, despite previous reviews. Owner established the restaurant around 1971. Excellent beef, great seafood. Great wine list. Bartenders pour great drinks. For us, this is a special treat place, but it doesn't stop us from trying to go once per month. Corkage fee is very fair.

Good quality but just average restaurant. Part of a chain of family restuarants which includes the 94th Aero Squadron in the San Fernando Valley. Nieuport 17 has a world war I theme and aviation theme.

Continental dining at its finest in one of the more unusual places. Located at the tip of a small shopping center. Excellent food, intimate and luxurious. Well worth the price

Another landmark restaurant that was originally located on 17th street in Santa Ana; the original was old, dumpy, dark dinnerhouse but I used to love to go there for lunch to order their Louie Salad (shrimp were huge and tasty) and the price was always right. Now they have moved to Tustin and do not EVEN resemble their old haunts. But - oh - is their food wonderful and worth every penny. Pricey but a good place to go to create a memorable occasion!
